Building Façades

See every crack before it becomes a liability.

High-rise façades and cladding inspected from the air, replacing rope access and swing-stage surveys with a full, navigable model of the building envelope.

Every service, laid out in full.

01 Digital Twin, Anomaly Detection & Inspection Checklists

A persistent model of the full building envelope, with cracking and panel defects flagged automatically and logged against a maintenance checklist.

Asset types covered.High-rise façades, cladding panels, curtain walls, balconies.
Detects on every pass.Cracking, spalling, panel delamination, water staining.
Inspection checklists.Façade maintenance checklists sit on the twin, so a completed survey is a structured record for the building owner.
Every cycle compared.Every elevation is compared with the previous survey, with alerts to facilities management when a defect crosses a safety threshold.

02 Façade Defect Survey

The full envelope captured from the air at close range, with cracks, spalling and panel defects marked on each elevation.

Defect mapping.Cracking, spalling, and visible lifting or delamination of render and cladding.
Cladding and glazing.Loose or missing cladding panels and broken glazing located.
Elevation-by-elevation record.Findings documented per elevation for building management.
No rope access.The whole envelope captured, not a sampled swing-stage survey.

03 Water Ingress & Thermal Mapping

Thermal and visual capture combined to show where water may be entering the envelope.

Thermal anomalies.Temperature patterns that can indicate moisture, missing insulation or air leakage, screened for on-site confirmation.
Staining mapping.Water staining and efflorescence mapped across each elevation.
Likely ingress points.Staining and thermal patterns traced back to probable entry points.
Capture timing.Thermal flights planned for the times of day when the envelope shows contrast.

04 Sealant & Joint Condition Tracking

Panel joints and sealant condition tracked across the full elevation, prioritizing where a maintenance crew should look first.

Joint and sealant condition.Joint gap and sealant condition measured across the elevation.
Cycle-over-cycle tracking.Each joint compared with the last survey to show deterioration.
Prioritized maintenance list.Findings ranked by severity and elevation.
Owner-ready records.PDF and CSV reports per building and inspection cycle.
