    Interesting video that makes me wonder if it’s something I should have considered as a career. Thanks for sharing 👍🏻

    With the fire damaged building with the missing roof, have you considered flying a drone above the building to get a birds eye view picture of upstairs? I did that to this house when I wanted to model where the brackets should be placed for my solar panels and I found it to be quite accurate (about 5cm error over 12m) (for as along as you can include in the picture a known length for reference). You can also get drones with protected rotors which you can fly about inside a building, which would be ideal for taking pictures and videos for disaster jobs like that. Unsure if it could really be a substitute to looking in person, but at least you can't fall through the floor!

      We have a drone, just don’t use it all that much. With the whole roof structure being new, we can rationalise its design as we are starting again.

    Could you please tell me if a Chartered Building Surveyor is the best person to contact if we would like to understand the impact of tree removal in the vicinity of our home? For context this is a tree without a TPO in our garden which we would like to remove and we would like a formal opinion/report to assess the safety of doing this based on proximity to the main house and conservatory. The house was there before the tree but it’s a substantial one. Thank you.
