Milrose partners with experienced drone pilots to perform close-up building façade inspections, giving owners and project teams visibility that traditional methods alone cannot match. The result is a safer, more efficient process with minimal disruption to building operations.

Using photogrammetry, we capture thousands of high-resolution images to create precise 2D and 3D models of the building exterior. These scaled visuals allow our architects and engineers to accurately assess conditions, define repair scope, and develop more reliable pricing. This leads to better planning, fewer surprises, and stronger control over project timelines and budgets. Drone inspections can also incorporate infrared technology to identify moisture intrusion and hidden leaks, providing deeper insight into conditions not visible at the surface.

Drone technology enhances documentation and visibility, but it does not replace in-person inspections. It works alongside hands-on evaluations by licensed professionals to ensure accurate analysis and informed decision-making.

In addition to compliance-driven use cases, drone inspections are a valuable tool for preventative maintenance, especially for low-rise buildings or properties not subject to FISP. Routine assessments help identify issues early, extend the life of building systems, and reduce long-term repair costs.

Drone inspections are well suited for a wide range of project types: 

• 6 Stories and higher 
• Difficult-to-rig Buildings 
• Buildings on a tight deadline 
• Buildings Requiring 100% documentation 
• Accurate Detailed Scoping 
• Buildings with a lot of damage
• Decorative / Landmark Buildings 
• Emergency Investigations 
• Cataloging of Stones, Materials 
• Structurally Damaged Buildings 
• Fire Damaged Buildings
• Preventative Building Maintenance
• Infared Leak Detection
