Our Services

Drone/Aerial Pest Control

Our drone technology brings precision, efficiency, and access to areas where traditional methods fall short. From aerial spraying and seed spreading to mapping, monitoring and toxin application, we use drones to deliver fast, accurate results across rugged, remote, and large-scale environments.

CAA-registered and fully certified, our operators hold chemical and night flying ratings, enabling safe aerial application of herbicides and pesticides as well as a 24/7 operational window for optimal weather and thermal conditions. We work closely with landowners, councils, and environmental teams to tailor drone solutions that reduce costs, increase coverage, and minimise environmental impact.

Whether you’re targeting weeds or invasive animal pests, restoring land, or gathering vital data — our drones are ready for the job.

Surveying And GIS Mapping

LRC utilise our drone GIS survey and mapping to plan projects, site mapping, perform volume calculations, monitoring and inspections.

Our drones are equipped with high-resolution cameras designed to capture detailed imagery from the air with RTK accuracy.

We have a range of drones that give us the capability to undertake all aspects of surveying and mapping.

  • LIDAR
  • Thermal Imaging
  • 2D and 3D

Thermal Drone Inspections

Longridge Contracting’s thermal drone capabilities are powered by the cutting-edge DJI Matrice series, delivering high-efficiency aerial monitoring with precision and reliability. Equipped with the Zenmuse H30T thermal camera, this platform offers advanced imaging for day and night operations, supported by a robust battery system, allowing us to cover vast areas.

Used for pre and post operation to determine the efficacy of control and pest population densities.

Drone Roof Cleaning

Removing moss, mould and lichen from your roof is proven to protect your asset from premature failure and prolongs the life of your roof. LRC provides safe and effective cleaning of large hard to access roofs, mitigating damage to property and health and safety issues associated with manual techniques.

Our drone-based approach allows us to reach challenging roof areas whilst maintaining the highest safety standards and delivering consistent, thorough cleaning results.

Safety,

Compliance,

Excellence

We are registered with the Civil Aviation Authority and meet all health and safety standards for aerial and ground-based operations.

Pilot Qualifications
Our certified pilots hold chemical ratings and night flying ratings, enabling us to operate during optimal conditions when weather is more favourable or to increase operational productivity. Night operations are particularly valuable for our thermal imaging work, where most pest detection activities are conducted under cover of darkness for maximum effectiveness.
