Why Complete a Drone Facade Inspection?
Quickly Assess the Condition of a Building Facade in Minutes using Drones
Why Drone Façade Inspections Are the Smart Choice
Drones are designed to capture high-resolution imagery from above, making them the perfect tool for assessing building exteriors. When it comes to spotting façade defects, no ground-based camera can match the accuracy, perspective, or safety of a drone inspection.
Unlike handheld systems limited by angles or obstructions, drones provide a true perpendicular view of walls and rooftops—essential for detecting displacement, surface cracks, and material damage from every angle, including top-down perspectives.
Why Choose Drone Façade Inspections?
Faster and more affordable than rope access or scaffolding
Early detection prevents costly repairs
Superior visuals from hard-to-reach areas
Common Issues We Identify:
Vertical or corner cracks
Loose or displaced cladding/panels
Failing sealant joints and mortar erosion
Peeling paint, sill separation, and corrosion
Window integrity issues and water leaks
Why it matters? One word—GRAVITY.
Loose façade elements can fall, posing serious risks and liability. Drone inspections help you identify hazards early and take corrective action with a clear, documented record. In regions like Quebec, façade inspections are even required by law every five years for buildings over five storeys.
Having this documentation is also invaluable if seismic activity or nearby construction vibrations cause disputes over structural damage—it clearly shows the “before and after.”
Protect your property, meet regulatory requirements, and reduce liability with Recon Aerial Calgary’s professional drone façade inspection services.
