Construction Drone & Aerial Photography with logged fixed-point frames

Every construction site enquiry for drone aerial gets the same first reply: a short list of questions that saves the client time. Site photography answers to two audiences at once — the client's progress report and the contractor's marketing — and the same visit has to satisfy both without a second mobilisation.

Context

Progress reporting and marketing want different frames.

In practice, that means high-resolution aerial stills and 4K video, supplied within 48 hours. Vantage points are recorded so month two matches month one exactly.

FAQs

Questions we hear

Is aerial work possible on a live site?

Where airspace and crane movements allow, and only with the principal contractor's sign-off.

Do you carry your own PPE?

Yes, and site induction is completed before work starts on the first visit.

How long does a typical Wirral aerial shoot take?

Most Wirral commissions are wrapped on-site in under two hours, with edits returned inside 48 hours.

Do you need permission to fly near Hilbre Island?

Anything near Hilbre Island requires a pre-flight risk assessment; we coordinate with the relevant landowner and Wirral Council where ground access is needed.

Can you fly in Wirral?

Yes — flights in Wirral are planned under OSC permissions, with NOTAMs filed where the CH41 district sits inside controlled airspace.
