Common questions

Drone photography, answered.

Anything not covered here? Send us a message and we’ll come back to you with a straight answer.

How much does drone photography cost in Huddersfield?

Cost depends on the size of the property, how many images you need and how far the site is from Huddersfield. A standard residential drone photography shoot for an estate agent listing is priced differently to a full commercial site survey. Send us the property address and a short brief and we will come back with a fixed, no-obligation quote.

Do I need permission to have my property photographed by drone?

You do not need permission to photograph your own property, but we do need permission from whoever controls the land we take off and land from. We handle the airspace checks, flight restriction zone checks and any landowner permissions before the day of the shoot, so there is nothing for you to arrange.

How will I receive the drone photographs?

Images arrive edited and colour corrected, delivered digitally as high-resolution files you can use straight away in listings, reports, brochures and planning documents. If you are working to a deadline, tell us when you need them and we will agree a turnaround before the shoot.

Can you fly a drone in bad weather?

Drones cannot fly safely in heavy rain or high winds, so we monitor the forecast and will move a booking if conditions are unsuitable. Light overcast conditions are often ideal for property photography because they produce even lighting with no harsh shadows on the roof or facade.

Do you carry out drone roof surveys for homeowners?

Yes. A drone roof survey is a safe, non-invasive alternative to scaffolding or ladders. We photograph tiles, slates, flat roofs, chimneys, flashings, ridge tiles, guttering, fascias and soffits at high resolution, so you or your roofer can identify problems without anyone leaving the ground.

Which areas of West Yorkshire do you cover?

We are based in Huddersfield and regularly cover Leeds, Halifax, Bradford, Wakefield, Dewsbury, Brighouse, Mirfield, Holmfirth, Batley, Cleckheaton and Barnsley. We also travel further across Yorkshire for larger commercial and development work.

Are you insured for drone photography work?

Yes. We hold public liability insurance covering our drone work, and we are happy to provide evidence of cover to agents, surveyors, developers and site managers before attending a job.
