Help with drone survey in Derry
Storm damage, a missing slate or a blocked gutter: a drone can inspect the Derry property from the air and report what it finds, with the images attached.
Drone survey in Derry: what to know
Derry has conservation areas such as Clarendon Street, Historic City and Magee, where roof or chimney changes can need the council's consent. Northern Ireland holds over 9,100 listed buildings, and the Guild Hall is one of them here. Steep, old or ornate roofs are hard and risky to walk on. A roof drone survey records what is up there without anyone climbing, and the imagery is useful to a builder, a planner or a buyer.
Choosing the right work in Derry
The Derry surveys cover the whole envelope from the air: roofs, rooflines, chimneys and gutters, each flight ending in a written report with the imagery included.
