Drone Building Surveys

Traditional methods of building inspection mean a lot of preparation. You spend a lot of time setting up scaffolding, filling out paperwork and doing security checks. Gathering information is also tedious. Staff have to walk the ground to collect data and consider safety concerns when working at height.

With a drone building inspection, you can address these concerns while greatly reducing planning and turnaround time. By eliminating the need for scaffolding and rope access, the process is significantly streamlined. It allows you to safely, cost-effectively and quickly inspect and survey your property from unique angles. We give you a detailed overview of the condition of your property.

Pinpoint Problem Areas

Using 4K ultra-high-definition cameras and zoom lenses we can pinpoint areas that are suffering from decay, cracks, erosion, corrosion and other damage. Enjoy peace of mind in knowing that issues that are causing, and have the potential to cause, serious problems will be found quickly and efficiently.

Remote Monitoring

The use of drone 3D modelling technologies gives you the opportunity to inspect a digital twin of a building from the comfort of your office. This detailed replica can be inspected at a minute level, allowing you to make a record of any areas that are in need of attention. Issues such as poorly executed repairs, general damage and other potential weaknesses can be shared with your employees, suppliers and other shareholders at the click of a button.

Locate Irregularities

Drones equipped with thermal imaging cameras allow you to accurately assess the condition of a building. Infrared photographs can be used to detect extreme temperature differences that can locate otherwise unseen issues, such as concealed moisture damage and heat leakage.

Access Hard-To-Reach Areas

The use of specialist impact-resistance technology deployed with our drones allows us to access areas that are otherwise too hazardous or difficult to reach. Get instant data from confined spaces without the time-consuming, labour-intensive and costly methods of the past, and with zero risk to personnel.

Why use a drone for your building inspection?

Safety

The safety of your personnel and our own is paramount, and we place it at the forefront of our company culture. Ask us about our HSSE systems and practices.

Cost-efficient

Drone inspections take up less of your manhours and resources than traditional inspections, giving you a faster and more budget-friendly return on your investment.

Greater Accuracy

Drones capture high-quality, impartial information that gives you an exact assessment of the status and needs of your asset.

No downtime

Downtime is expensive and inconvenient. Using a drone, our engineers can conduct a thorough survey with little to no downtime.

Detect hidden problems

We use cutting-edge technologies to detect problems that would otherwise be invisible. These include 4K ultra-HD photography/video, LIDAR and thermal imaging.

No scaffolding or ropes

Drone technology is cheaper, safer and more reliable than traditional methods such as scaffolding, cherry-pickers and ropes. It's also quicker and less labour-intensive. We will bring everything we need and be out of your way that same day.

Quick turnaround

We understand that you need answers fast. We can deliver a plain-English report with clear-cut conclusions in days. Then, you can take the steps you need to and get back to doing what you do best.

Real-time consulting

Sometimes the brief can change even in real-time. If need be, you can be stood there right next to the drone operator, directing them as the situation develops.

One drone inspection can pick up all the minor issues that could become big, expensive problems.

What we have to offer

Engineers with Drones capture high-resolution aerial photos and footage from unlimited angles and perspectives. This gives you more detailed and professional-looking reports at a fraction of the cost of traditional surveys. This data can be viewed on site by your engineers, tradespeople and site managers. And, you can also share it digitally with anyone else who needs access, such as stakeholders and insurance companies. We can inspect the whole building or focus on specific areas, depending on what you need.
