Drone facade inspection
No rope access.The whole facade,captured by drone.
A drone facade inspection replaces the boom lifts and rope descents an apartment facade inspection used to depend on. Nobody hangs off the building, and the entire elevation is left on record in high resolution.

Areas that used to need a person to reach them are photographed instead. The capture is itself the record, so what the inspector saw and judged can be reviewed again later.
- precision capture for close-range facade imagery
- The full building elevation recorded without working at height
- Capture files uploaded in batch straight into analysis
Capture is where it starts
The flight is the beginning. AI analyses the imagery to find cracks, and each crack is projected onto the 3D building so the block, elevation and floor are known.
- Hundreds of facade images analysed to one standard
- Detected cracks projected onto the orthomosaic and 3D model
- Length, width and area compiled as the basis for repair quantities
Frequently asked questions
What if drone capture is difficult at the site?
We review flight restrictions, building spacing and nearby obstacles in advance, then adjust the capture scope or recommend an alternative method when needed.
How long does it take from capture to results?
Timing depends on building size, number of blocks, capture scope and image volume. We provide a capture, analysis and reporting schedule after reviewing the site.
