We run drone inspection jobs across DA16 throughout the year. We handle both one-off commissions and scheduled repeat visits for ongoing projects. Quotes hold; we do not revise them once the job is agreed.

Good drone inspection makes the next conversation shorter. Local access, not airspace, is often the real constraint on work in DA16. Because DA16 falls under Dartford, we can usually combine it with nearby districts in one visit.

We work out take-off and landing points, cordons and contingency routes for DA16 ahead of the shoot date. Payload choice follows the deliverable, whether that is a frame or a measurement. We would rather stand down and rebook than fly a marginal operation.

Permissions, insurance and the risk assessment are all available before the flight rather than after it. You get the raw capture on the day and finished deliverables within a couple of days. Nothing about the DA16 operation is subcontracted out without telling you.

Frequently Asked Questions

Do you retain copyright, or do we?

Licensing is agreed before the shoot and written into the quote, so there is no ambiguity afterwards. Tell us how you intend to use the material and we will scope the licence to match.

Can you work around a live site in DA16?

Yes. We plan around access routes, working hours and pedestrian movement, and can schedule flights for quieter windows to keep ground risk down. Cordons and marshalling are agreed in advance rather than arranged on the day.

Can you fly indoors or in enclosed spaces?

Yes, with sub-250g aircraft and appropriate planning. Enclosed and confined spaces need their own risk assessment and often a different platform, so tell us about the environment early and we will confirm what is workable.
