a no nonsense guide to drone inspection questions we get
How much does a drone survey cost?
A roof inspection is as little as £200+VAT. A typical inspection costs under £350+VAT. We quote per project and include the hourly rate. All fees are 100% transparent from the outset.
Are drones illegal?
No. They are completely legal to fly in the UK for commercial use. The correct qualifications, and right permissions are required from the local Air Traffic Control (ATC).
Why can’t I just get a drone and do it myself?
There is nothing stopping you! However, you do so at great risk. Current violations of the drone code, set out by CAA Regulations, is up to 5 years imprisonment. Pleading ignorance is not a defence! Aviation law is taken very seriously everywhere in the world.
