FAQs
Common questions
How often do you visit for monitoring?
Typically weekly or fortnightly, but we can tailor frequency to your project timeline and budget. Some clients opt for monthly visits for long-programme infrastructure projects.
Can we view footage remotely?
Yes. We upload footage to a secure cloud platform accessible to your team and stakeholders. You can view, download, and share progress imagery without contacting us each time.
Can monitoring footage be used in a dispute?
Yes. Time-stamped aerial footage provides objective, unambiguous evidence of site conditions and construction sequence, invaluable in contractor disputes, extension of time claims, or insurance matters.
Do you work on occupied or live construction sites?
Yes. We are experienced working on live construction sites and adhere to all site safety requirements. We coordinate with your site manager to ensure compliant and safe operations.
