1. What services do you offer?

At  DoubleSix Drones, we provide professional drone inspections, thermal imaging, aerial videography, and intelligent roof data solutions through our Hawk360 platform across the UK.

Our services include:

• Hawk360 Roof Intelligence – Interactive 2D/3D roof mapping, condition analysis, and digital asset reporting for councils, surveyors, housing providers, and property managers.
• Thermal Imaging Surveys – Detecting heat loss, water ingress, insulation failures, and electrical faults in buildings and infrastructure.
• Roof & Building Inspections – Identifying structural defects, storm damage, damp penetration, and maintenance issues without scaffolding.

2. What is Hawk360?

Hawk360 is our advanced digital roof intelligence platform designed to give clients instant access to interactive 2D/3D roof and building data.

Using drone technology, thermal imaging, and cloud-based reporting, Hawk360 allows property professionals to:

• View roofs remotely in high detail
• Monitor defects and maintenance issues
• Access thermal and visual inspection data
• Reduce the need for repeated site visits
• Manage multiple properties through a single platform

Hawk360 is ideal for councils, surveyors, facilities managers, housing associations, and commercial property portfolios.

3. How does drone thermal imaging work?

Drone thermal imaging uses specialist infrared cameras to detect heat emitted by surfaces and structures. The technology highlights temperature variations that may indicate:

• Heat loss
• Water ingress
• Damp issues
• Electrical faults
• Insulation failures

By combining thermal data with aerial imagery and Hawk360 reporting, we provide fast, accurate, and non-invasive inspections.

4. Why choose drone inspections over traditional inspections?

Our drone based inspections and Hawk360 reporting platform provide a faster, safer, and more cost effective alternative to traditional access methods.

Benefits include:

• Access to Difficult Areas – Ideal for roofs, towers, industrial sites, and hazardous environments.
• Safer Inspections – Reduces the need for scaffolding, ladders, cherry pickers, or working at height.
• Non-Intrusive Surveys – Minimal disruption to buildings, tenants, or operations.
• High-Resolution Data Capture – Detailed thermal imagery, aerial photography, and 2D/3D mapping.
• Rapid Turnaround – Surveys completed in hours with reports typically delivered within 24–48 hours.
