Here’s how our drone façade inspection services help you reduce liability:
No workers at height – Eliminate the dangers (and insurance headaches) of rope access, swing stages, and scaffolding.
Non-intrusive inspections – Drones operate from the ground, meaning zero disruption to tenants or building operations.
Early risk detection – Catch issues like loose cladding, cracked masonry, or water ingress before they become safety hazards.
Detailed, high-resolution data – Capture visuals with pinpoint accuracy to back maintenance decisions.
Clear documentation for compliance – Our digital reports provide a solid paper trail for audits, insurance, and regulatory reviews.
Support for dispute resolution – If something goes wrong, our imagery proves due diligence and protects your position.
Who benefits most?

Why Complete a Drone Facade Inspection?
Quickly Assess the Condition of a Building Facade in Minutes using Drones
Why Drone Façade Inspection Services Are the Smart Choice
Drones are built to capture high-resolution imagery from above—making them the ideal tool for assessing building exteriors. When it comes to identifying defects on your façade, no ground-based camera can match the accuracy, perspective, or safety of drone façade inspection services.
Unlike handheld systems that struggle with angles and obstructions, drones offer a true perpendicular view of walls and rooftops—critical for spotting displacement, surface cracking, and material damage from all angles, including top-down perspectives.
Why choose drone façade inspection services?
Faster & more affordable than rope access or scaffolding
Early detection of issues prevents costly repairs down the road
Superior visuals from hard-to-reach areas
We help you spot common issues like:
Vertical or corner cracks
Out-of-plane cladding or panels
Failing sealant joints and mortar erosion
Peeling paint, sill separation, and more
Window integrity issues, leaking
General deterioration and corrosion.
Why bother? One word – GRAVITY!
Loose façade elements can fall and cause serious harm—posing a major liability. With drone building envelope inspection services, you can identify hazards early and take fast, documented corrective action. In places like Quebec, façade inspections are even required by law every five years for buildings over five storeys.
Having a documented record of the condition of your facade could prove invaluable in the case where seismic energy (natural or a result of blasting) causes excess vibration and movement with the building structure. It will be much easier to demonstrate the condition before and after such an occurrence in the case where building owners look to lay blame at the feet of construction companies working in close proximity to their buildings.
Protect your property, meet regulatory requirements, and reduce your risk with Recon Aerial’s professional drone façade inspection services. Get in touch today to learn more.
