The "Heritage First" Guarantee
We understand the sensitivity of historical sites. If we arrive and cannot fly due to sudden weather or unexpected airspace restrictions near heritage zones, you do not pay a penny.
*Disclaimer: Rescheduled visits are billed at the original quoted rate.
Scaffold-Free Heritage Audits.
Why disturb a historic roof when you can inspect it from the air?
Installing scaffolding near listed buildings or in conservation areas in Caerleon can be complex and costly.
Our drone survey provides a respectful, efficient alternative:
- ✅ Evidence for Insurance: Validation for storm damage claims with 4K photos.
- ✅ Conservation Compliance: Non-destructive inspection reports for heritage authorities.
- ✅ Trace and Access: Identify the exact source of water ingress in minutes.
Don't Ask a Roofer if You Need a New Roof
We are Independent Data Collectors. We don't fix roofs, so we have no incentive to "find" extra work.
1. The Incentive
The Roofer: Makes money by finding defects, selling materials, and increasing the job scope.
CalonTerra: We charge a fixed flat fee. Our price is the same whether your roof is perfect or needs repair.
2. The Evidence
The Roofer: Often relies on verbal opinions or blurry ground photos.
CalonTerra: A downloadable Visual Condition Report with zoomed-in 4K evidence.
3. The Cost
The Roofer: You may pay for access (scaffolding) just for an estimate.
CalonTerra: A small fee for the truth. Only pay a tradesman to fix the specific damage you can see.
Buying or Selling in Caerleon?
"The survey flagged a potential roof issue."
Banks often demand a "Specialist Roof Report" before releasing funds on period properties. Standard surveys often can't see high, complex roofs properly.
The Solution: We provide the high-level, non-invasive evidence your lender requires to lift the retention.
Insurance Claims & Conservation
If you are claiming for "Storm Event" damage on a listed building, your insurer and conservation officer will demand proof that the damage is recent and not general wear.
- ✅ HD Evidence: 4K photos of fresh damage.
- ✅ Date-Stamped Data: Proof for your claim.
- ✅ Independent Validation: Unbiased reports for insurers and authorities.
