Palm Beach Drone Pros offers drone building inspections with RGB (normal camera) and a thermal camera on the same payload. This allows building inspection with thermal and match RGB images.
Palm Beach Drone Pros is a certified Aerial Thermographer and works with Bruni Infrared to do roof, parapet wall and stucco to evaluate the condition of these areas on buildings. The building inspection with thermal imaging reveals the thermal anomalies that are typical wet cold spots revealing damaged stucco and more. The colors of the thermography study indicate the temperatures and often show where the problem areas from damage are located.
By doing a thermal building inspection a baseline study is created and the condition of the building envelope can be evaluated. The baseline study is important to document the condition and in the event of a hurricane or bad storm this study maybe critical to support insurance damage claims. Without a previous data point it’s very difficult to document the roof condition for claims purposes.
Additionally, knowing the condition allows for early detection and repairs that save the building integrity and costly repairs. We find many building with conditions that were present in the Surfside collapse.
