5 Reasons Why Drone Building Inspections Are Better Than Traditional Inspection Methods
Drones have many advantages over traditional inspection methods for conducting building exterior inspections. This is especially true when searching for leaks and wear in hard to reach areas, such as facades and envelopes.
We put together 5 advantages of using drones as your main building inspection method.
Speed. Experienced drone pilots can scan the exterior of buildings in a fraction of the amount of time required to inspect that same building manually.
Safety. Climbing and rappelling building walls is dangerous work. On top of this dangerous work, the inspector has to stay focused on inspecting the building. Drones eliminate this risk and see everything.
Cost. Because of the speed of drone inspections, costs are going to be far lower than manual inspections. Plus the ability to capture aerial photography from a drone is going to be much less than a helicopter or airplane.
Clarity. Drones using 4K cameras and thermal imaging technology are going to see issues with your building that the human eye would never be able to capture.
Data. The data that drones capture about your building can be placed in any format you need, making it very easy to share with decision makers or your insurance company.
