Land and geospatial surveying

Pole Surveying

High-level inspection by pole camera, without the cost and hassle of scaffolding. We reach roofs, gutters and high facades from the ground and show you exactly what is up there.

The survey

Inspection From The Ground Up

A pole survey uses a high-reach camera on an extending mast to inspect high-level areas safely from ground level. You see live footage and stills of parts of the building you could not otherwise get to.

It is the quick, safe way to check a roof, gutter, chimney or high elevation without putting anyone up a ladder or hiring access equipment. We capture clear images and video, so you get a proper look at the condition without the cost of scaffolding or a cherry picker.

What we inspect

What We Can Reach

The high-level areas that are hard or unsafe to get to any other way.

  • Roofs, ridges and flashings
  • Gutters, fascias and soffits
  • Chimneys and high brickwork
  • High-level render and cladding
  • Rooflights and parapets
  • Anywhere hard to reach safely

Safer and cheaper

No Scaffolding, No Risk

The old way meant scaffolding, ladders or a cherry picker, all of which cost money and put people at height. A pole survey removes all of that.

You get the inspection done in a single visit, from the safety of the ground, for a fraction of the cost of access equipment. Nobody works at height, nothing needs hiring in and you still get clear evidence of the condition up top. It is faster, safer and cheaper.

FAQ

Common Questions

How high can the pole reach?
The mast extends high enough to inspect most roofs, gutters and high-level features on typical buildings. Tell us the building and we will confirm we can reach it.
Is it as good as getting up there?
For inspection, yes. The camera gives you clear, close-up images and video of the condition, without anyone needing to work at height.
Why not just use scaffolding?
Scaffolding is slow and expensive and it puts people at height. A pole survey does the inspection in one ground-level visit, for far less cost.
What do I get afterwards?
Clear images and video of the areas inspected, with any issues pointed out, so you know the condition without ever leaving the ground.
