THEIR CHALLENGE
Lower-cost, high quality and safe roof inspection
Inaccessible roof inspection, especially in commercial and busy town and city centres can be challenging. Traditional techniques using cherry pickers is complex and costly when compared to drone imagery. We were chosen to work with CS2 since we have substantial experience in de-risking our operations through our bespoke flight planning systems and our extensive flying hours. We also carry £5 million public legibility insurance and have a team of commercial drone pilots working under our Operational Authorisation which is regulated and annually audited by the CAA.
Getting close-up with remote inspection
Our drone technology is enterprise level which enables us to work in a wider range of more complex environments, whilst still being able to get the highest-quality and highest resolution images. In fact its as good as being there. This means that we were able to operate independently without having to have a member of the CS2 team on site. Instead, we simply captured the data and the sent the images, securely and geolocated, immediately after the agreed flight. CS2 was able to save on sending out a surveyor to site and also pass on cost savings directly to the client
