Facade drone inspection in Porto

Porto’s tiled and rendered facades hide problems at height: cracks, loose azulejo, failing sealant, rotten balconies. A drone gets close to every storey without scaffolding.

What we check

  • Cracks and movement in render, stone and masonry
  • Loose or detached azulejo and render that sounds or looks hollow
  • Balconies and parapets: corrosion, spalling and loose elements
  • Cornices, eaves and chimneys
  • Window surrounds and sealant lines
  • Gutters and downpipes that stain and soak the wall

Why it matters

Falling render or tiles are a safety risk to people below, and water behind a facade damages the building from the inside. Spotting the signs early is cheaper than repairing the damage.

For condominiums, a drone facade survey gives the owners a clear picture before they vote on works. For buyers, it adds the one part of the building a viewing cannot reach.

A drone shows what is visible. Where a closer, hands-on check is needed, the report says so.

Questions about this service

Does it replace a hands-on inspection?

No. It is a fast, safe first assessment of the visible condition. If something needs closer testing or access, we tell you.

Can you inspect a whole condominium?

Yes. We cover all facades and the roof in one visit where the site allows, and report by elevation.

Do residents need to be told?

Flights are planned with the building manager so residents and neighbours know. We avoid flying over people.

How do I get a quote?

Send us the address and the number of storeys. We quote within one business day.
