WE LOVE OUR CLIENTS,
AND SO DO THEY ​

Cali From Above was commissioned to do work on a complex of apartments that we manage. We wanted to examine some weather-related damage and erosion in several weather-exposed places. From the start, Sahil and his staff were professional. They sent a message to all people inside the property and worked in the early hours to prevent any issue with public trespass, etc. They presented us with an extensive report detailing the location of the damage. I would strongly encourage anybody seeking airborne surveying or inspection to contact Cali From Above.
