DRONE INSPECTIONS AND AERIAL SURVEYS
Medway Access & Rescue delivers fast, safe and cost-effective drone inspections for hard-to-reach assets.
Our UAV aerial surveys provide high-resolution visual, thermal imaging and photogrammetry to assess roofs, façades, wind turbines and critical infrastructure — reducing risk, cost and downtime.
Safe. Fast. Insightful.
Using qualified pilots and compliant flight planning, we capture precise data without scaffolding or disruption.
Detailed imagery, orthomosaics and thermal hot-spot detection help you prioritise maintenance and prove compliance with a clear audit trail.
What We Inspect
Roofs & façades — condition surveys, water ingress, cladding and fixings
Wind turbines — blades, nacelles, towers; pre/post-maintenance verification
Industrial plants & utilities — stacks, pipe racks, tanks and cable routes
Bridges & structures — deck, bearings, joints and corrosion mapping
Marine & offshore assets — hulls, topsides and inaccessible structures
Our UAV Capabilities
High-resolution visual photography and 4K video
Thermal imaging (IR) for moisture, insulation and electrical faults
Photogrammetry & orthomosaics for measurement and change tracking
Reporting — annotated findings, defect registers and media delivery
Regulatory compliance — risk assessments, airspace checks and permissions
When to Use Drones vs. Rope Access
Drones excel for rapid surveys, large areas and preliminary assessments.
For detailed intervention (cleaning, repair, testing) our rope access teams complete the physical work — often informed by UAV findings for a streamlined end-to-end solution.
