Whether you're buying, selling, planning maintenance, or just curious about the state of your property, a drone survey gives you the full picture from angles you've never seen before.

Good to Know
> 🏠 **Moving to Devon?** Exeter properties range from 12th-century buildings in the city centre to modern estates. Each era has its quirks. A drone survey helps you understand what you're buying before you commit. **Annual surveys** for landlords and property managers make long-term maintenance planning much easier. Track changes over time and catch problems before they become expensive. **Add thermal imaging** for the ultimate property health check - visual condition plus hidden heat loss and moisture problems.
Frequently Asked Questions about Drone property survey in Ottery St Mary
What does a full property survey cover?
Everything you can see from the outside - roof condition, chimney stacks, gutters, fascias, soffits, external walls, windows, grounds. The drone captures the whole property from multiple heights and angles, giving you a complete visual record of the building's exterior condition.
Is this a replacement for a homebuyer survey?
No - a RICS homebuyer survey covers structural issues, legal matters, and internal condition. A drone survey complements it by providing detailed visual evidence of the exterior that a surveyor might not fully assess from ground level. Many buyers now use both.
I'm an estate agent - can you do these for our listings?
Absolutely. Aerial photography makes listings stand out. We can provide photos and video for marketing purposes as well as condition assessment. Contact us to discuss a package.
How large a property can you survey?
Anything from a standard semi to a large rural property. Battery life gives us around 40 minutes of flight time per charge, and we carry spares. Even large properties with grounds can be covered in a single visit.
Can you add thermal imaging to the property survey?
Yes - and I'd recommend it for older properties. The thermal camera reveals heat loss, moisture issues, and insulation failures that visual inspection alone can't detect. It adds time but gives you a much more complete picture.
