Full UK drone pilot price guideCommon Edinburgh and Lothians drone assignments
Traditional stone properties and tenement roofs across EH postcodes are usually inspected through a drone roof survey, with a broader drone building inspection where chimneys, stonework and high level detail also need recording.
Land and development briefs are better matched to drone surveying or drone mapping, and marketing or visitor facing imagery to drone photography and videography.
