How it works
Four steps, agreed in advance
Agree the plan
We agree the site and the shot list, by email or a short call.
Check conditions
I check the weather, the airspace and permissions before the day.
Fly
I fly the agreed shots and take a few extra while I am up.
Send the edit
You receive edited stills, and the film if booked, by download link.
Landowner permission is arranged before launch. Flights follow UK Civil Aviation Authority rules.
About
One operator, one aircraft
Wye Valley Aerial is run by one person, based in the valley. I fly a DJI Mavic 4 Pro, which carries three cameras and records stills and graded video. Flights are insured, and I hold a Flyer ID, an Operator ID and the A2 Certificate of Competence.
How much does a flight cost?
Every job is quoted separately, and the quote is free. Send the address and what you need, and I will reply with a fixed price before anything is booked.
Can you photograph my roof without a ladder?
Yes. I can fly close to tiles, chimneys, gutters, valleys and flat roofs and send clear photographs, so you or your roofer can see what needs attention. The photographs are not a structural survey.
Can I have photographs and a film from the same visit?
Yes. Stills and video can be captured in one visit. Tell me you want both when you ask for a quote, because filmed moves take longer to fly than stills.
What happens if the weather is bad?
I check the forecast before the day. If wind or rain would spoil the job or make it unsafe, we agree a new date at no extra cost.
Do you need permission to fly over my property?
I arrange landowner permission before launch and check the airspace for every address. Flights follow UK Civil Aviation Authority rules and the UK Drone Code.
How do I receive the photographs?
Edited stills, and the film if booked, arrive by download link, ready for listings, websites and social media.
