Drone Surveys for Chartered & Building Surveyors

A chartered or building surveyor's report is only as sound as the evidence behind it — and some of the most important evidence sits exactly where it's hardest to get to: ridge lines, parapets, valley gutters, chimney stacks, high elevations and roofs that can't take a ladder.

Image Surveys gives you that detail without scaffolding, cherry-pickers or a working-at-height risk. We're a CAA-licensed, fully insured drone survey business based in Southport, working across the North of England and North Wales, and every flight is held to the same standard: accurate, properly documented and captured by an impartial operator, so the data stands up when it goes into your report.

We don't interpret the building — that's your job. We give you reliable, measurable, well-documented imagery and survey data to interpret it from.

We can supply a range of support services including:

Roof & elevation surveys — High-resolution imagery of every roof slope, ridge, flashing, gutter and chimney, plus full elevations, so you can assess condition and defects from your desk. See our dedicated roof inspections  and building inspections 

Dilapidations & schedules of condition — Dated, consistent visual records of a building's exterior at a point in time — ideal for ingoing and outgoing schedules, lease-end dilapidations and party-wall condition records, with metadata retained behind every image.

Measured & pre-design base data — Orthomosaics, measured 2D plans and 3D models you can annotate, scale and place into reports or hand to a design team. See aerial mapping & 3D modelling 

Defect & condition investigation — Close visual inspection of cracking, movement, damp tracking, failed coverings and storm or water damage on parts of a structure that are otherwise out of reach.

• Built to feed your workflow.     Our data is designed to drop into the reports and software chartered and building surveyors already use, not to replace your judgement.
