  • Detailed Inspections: Capture high-resolution imagery and video for a clear, accurate assessment of your property.
  • Hard-to-Reach Areas: Inspect roofs, gutters, façades and elevated structures safely without ladders or scaffolding.
  • Problem Detection: Identify guano buildup, roof damage, hidden nesting sites, and pest entry points before they lead to costly larger problems.

Questions & answers

Frequently Asked Questions

What can a drone survey reveal about bird activity?

Hawk uses aerial imagery to check roofs, ledges and gutters for visible signs of roosting, nesting and droppings. This helps us locate problem areas that are difficult to assess from the ground. A drone cannot see inside enclosed roof spaces, but can help to identify part of a wider problem.

Do I need a drone survey before having birds removed?

Not always. A drone survey is useful when the affected areas are high, difficult to access or spread across a large site. Tell us what you’ve noticed and we’ll advise whether an aerial survey would help or whether a ground-level inspection is sufficient.

Can our business stay open during the survey?

In many cases, yes. We’ll discuss site activity, access and a suitable flight area with you beforehand. Some areas may need to be kept temporarily clear, depending on the layout and the people or vehicles nearby.

What will we receive after the surveys completed?

You’ll receive clear findings supported by aerial imagery, highlighting visible bird activity and areas of concern. Hawk will explain the recommended next steps and flag anything that needs closer investigation.

How long does the drone survey take?

The time needed depends on the size of your site, the areas being inspected and flight conditions. Hawk will explain the expected survey duration and reporting timescale when arranging the work. Weather or site restrictions may affect scheduling.

Can you deal with the bird problems identified?

Yes. Hawk provides bird proofing, falconry deterrence, guano cleaning and other bird control services across London and Essex. We’ll recommend an approach based on the findings, the birds involved and how your premises are used.
