Professional Drone Surveys in Loughborough

Falls from height remain the leading cause of workplace fatalities, and a great deal of that risk is taken on simply to look at something. Drone surveys let you inspect roofs, gutters, chimneys, towers and high-level structures in detail without anybody leaving the ground, no scaffold, no MEWP and no access hire.

Based in Coalville, Leicestershire, Integral Safety is ideally positioned to serve businesses in Loughborough. Choosing a local consultancy means a survey booked around the weather window rather than around a long journey, and a consultant who can return quickly if conditions change.

Weather is the main constraint on drone work, and being local genuinely helps with it. High wind or heavy rain stops flying, and a consultancy an hour and a half away has to commit to a date well in advance and hope. From Coalville we can watch the forecast and move a Loughborough survey by a day.

Loughborough work tends to be institutional and commercial: campus buildings, sports facilities, industrial units and the town's larger retail and office premises.

Local knowledge

Business and Industry in Loughborough

Loughborough combines a major university and its science and enterprise park with a solid base of engineering, electronics and precision manufacturing, plus distribution operations drawn by the M1. The university connection means an unusual number of research, laboratory and spin-out businesses in the town, which brings substances, gases and prototype equipment into the risk picture.

Business parks and estates we work on

  • Loughborough University Science and Enterprise Park
  • Charnwood Business Park
  • Belton Road Industrial Estate
  • Bishop Meadow Road
  • The Point
  • Meadow Lane Industrial Estate
  • Falcon Business Park

Getting to you

Loughborough is our closest large town, around 15 minutes from Coalville on the A512. In practice that means we can often be on site the same day for anything urgent.

“We have recently utilised the guys at Integral Safety Ltd to carry out a drone roof survey of a housing development. We were impressed with the clarity and detailed schedule of images and footage. In addition, the accompanying reports clearly identify the locations of the images for reference. I’ve also been impressed with Integral's client care and quick turn around of instructions/completion of task/production of documentation and footage. We would highly recommend them.”

Questions

Drone Surveys in Loughborough: Your Questions

What happens if the weather is bad on the day?

We reschedule, and being fifteen minutes away makes that easy rather than painful. High wind and persistent rain both prevent safe flying and degrade the imagery, so there is no sense in pressing ahead. We keep an eye on the forecast and will usually give you notice the day before rather than turning up and abandoning it.

Can you survey a flat roof usefully?

Yes, and flat roofs often benefit most. The failures are usually at upstands, outlets, laps and around plant rather than in the middle of the field, and those details are hard to assess from ground level or even from a walk across the roof. Overhead imagery shows ponding patterns particularly clearly.

Do you carry out drone roof surveys in Loughborough?

Yes. We survey commercial and industrial premises throughout Loughborough and the surrounding area. Most surveys are completed in a few hours and you receive high-resolution imagery with a written report identifying what we found.

What about airspace restrictions and the weather?

We check airspace restrictions before every flight and operate within the Civil Aviation Authority rules, including near airports and over built-up areas, which matters in this region given East Midlands Airport. Weather is the main scheduling constraint: high wind and heavy rain stop flying, so we build a little flexibility into booking rather than promise a fixed hour.
