Drone Surveys

Professional Drone Surveys by Paddick Engineering Limited

At Paddick Engineering Limited, we provide professional drone surveys for residential, commercial and construction projects across the UK. Our drone surveying services deliver fast, accurate and safe aerial data to support planning, design, inspection and construction decision making.

By combining advanced drone technology with engineering expertise, we produce survey-grade data you can rely on reducing site risk, improving accuracy and accelerating project timelines.

🔍 What Are Drone Surveys?

Drone surveys use unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) equipped with high resolution cameras, LiDAR sensors or thermal imaging technology to capture detailed aerial data from above a site. This information is processed into accurate, usable outputs such as:

  • Orthomosaic aerial maps

  • 3D models and point clouds

  • Roof inspection imagery

  • Topographic land surveys

  • Construction progress reports

Compared to traditional survey methods, drone surveys are faster to deploy, safer to carry out and often more cost effective,  particularly on large, complex or hard to access sites.

🛠️ Drone Surveying Services

Roof Inspection Drone Surveys

Ideal for residential, commercial and industrial buildings, our roof drone surveys provide detailed visual inspections without scaffolding or access equipment. Perfect for condition assessments, defect identification and maintenance planning.

Land & Topographic Drone Surveys

We carry out drone surveys for land measurement, site feasibility and planning support. Outputs include aerial mapping, terrain models and accurate site data suitable for early-stage design and development.

LiDAR Drone Surveys

For projects requiring higher accuracy, our LiDAR drone surveys deliver dense point cloud data for terrain modelling, elevation analysis and complex engineering applications.

Thermal Drone Surveys

Thermal drone surveys identify heat loss, insulation defects, moisture ingress and energy inefficiencies — supporting building diagnostics and retrofit strategies.

Construction & Progress Monitoring

Our construction drone surveys provide regular aerial updates to track progress, verify works, support reporting and improve communication between stakeholders.
