Drones are no longer just gadgets for enthusiasts. Today, they're a vital business tool used across a wide range of industries, helping companies work more efficiently, improve safety, and deliver innovative services to customers.


At Mango Insurance, we access specialist drone insurance solutions through Coverdrone, helping businesses of all sizes protect their drone operations, from sole traders flying a single drone to complex commercial fleets.


Which Businesses Need Drone Insurance?

Many business owners don't initially think of themselves as drone operators. However, if a drone forms part of your service offering, specialist insurance is essential.

We can help arrange cover for businesses including:

  • Estate agents using aerial photography and video marketing

  • Surveyors carrying out building and land inspections

  • Roofing contractors inspecting hard-to-reach areas

  • Construction companies monitoring projects

  • Farmers and agricultural contractors

  • Photographers and videographers

  • Search and rescue organisations

  • Security and surveillance businesses

  • Infrastructure inspection companies

  • Drone racing operators

  • Drone light show providers

  • Training organisations

  • Commercial delivery operators

If your business uses drones in its daily operations, we can help find the right protection.

Drone Cover for Businesses Large and Small

One benefit of our access to specialist drone insurers is the flexibility available.

Whether you have:

  • One drone or over 1,000 drones

  • A single pilot or multiple operators

  • Equipment worth a few hundred pounds or over £1 million

  • Small lightweight drones or larger specialist aircraft

  • Occasional flights or regular daily operations


There are solutions available to suit a broad range of requirements.

This means we can support everyone from start-up drone businesses through to established commercial operators with more complex needs.


What Does Drone Insurance Cover?

The exact cover required will vary from one business to another, but policies can include:


Liability Cover

Protection against claims arising from injury to third parties or damage to property.

This can include:

  • Public Liability

  • Products Liability

Why Arrange Your Drone Insurance Through Mango Insurance?

While drone insurance can be a specialist area, our role is to make the process straightforward.

By working with specialist providers, we can help identify the right solution whether you're:

  • An estate agent launching aerial marketing services.

  • A photographer adding drone footage to your portfolio.

  • A contractor carrying out roof and building surveys.

  • A farming business embracing precision agriculture.

  • A commercial operator managing multiple drones and pilots.

Rather than trying to fit your business into a standard online quote system, we can discuss your individual requirements and access specialist markets capable of handling more unusual or complex risks.
