Aerial Surveys for Residential, Industrial and Heritage Sites

Serving Lancashire’s Diverse Property Landscape

Lancashire is a county of contrasts with industrial estates in Burnley and Accrington, heritage mills in Preston, post-war housing in Blackburn, and rural estates throughout the Ribble Valley. Maintaining such a wide variety of assets comes with logistical, safety and budget challenges.

​

At Cr8ive Media UK, we provide drone inspections that are faster, safer and more affordable than traditional methods. Whether you’re inspecting chimneys, rooftops, high-rise blocks or transmission structures, we capture the data you need without scaffolding, access platforms or on-site delays.

Fast, Measurable Visuals for Smarter Maintenance

Our inspections use high-resolution drone photography and photogrammetry to create 3D models and detailed image sets. These outputs can be used to identify storm damage, track deterioration, plan refurbishment works, or support funding and insurance documentation.

​

Across Lancashire, housing providers have used our services to inspect blocks of flats, while asset managers have monitored roof conditions on warehouse units. We understand both the pace and complexity of maintaining assets in mixed urban and rural areas and we deliver the clarity you need to act with confidence.

Survey Snapshot: Disused Public Building

Drone survey in Liverpool of historic building

We recently planned a drone survey of a disused public building ahead of emergency repairs. Our team planned to complete the scan in just one day, to capture a highly detailed 3D model looking for significant structural issues, not limited to failed lead flashing and serious cracks in the external walls.

​

With the clarity of the visual evidence we can provide, the client can quickly commission temporary works to prevent further deterioration. They can also use our annotated imagery and web-based model to request quotations for remedial work from multiple contractors. Within six weeks, we expect them to initiate the works, all from a survey that cost just £675 and required no scaffolding or intrusive access.
