Inspection without risk
or scaffolding

Inspecting an 80 m industrial chimney the classic way — 3 days with scaffolding and two workers at height. With a drone — 45 minutes, one operator, zero risk.

Open A1/A3

We fly a drone with a 4K sensor and 23x optical zoom — from 30 metres we capture millimetre-resolution stills. Cracks, corrosion, missing grout, deformations are visible in a single frame.

Every inspection ships a PDF with GPS location per defect, a cropped photo and a suggested damage class. Report format is accepted by UDT, PINB, banks and insurers.

Report, gigapixels
and defect map

Three layers: fast visual report, gigapixel image of the whole object, optional 3D model.

Format A

PDF defect report

Each defect on its own page: photo, GPS location, damage class, suggested action.

Format B

Gigapixel photo

200-500 shots stitched into a 1-3 gigapixel image — zoom in to millimetre detail.

Format C

Roof inspection

Cover condition, gutters, chimneys, PV panels. Leak, missing element and deformation detection.

Format D

Chimney inspection

Masonry, grout, insulation, inner liner. We fly around and inside the flue.

Format E

Bridge / tower inspection

Structural state, corrosion, cracks, spalled concrete. Hard-to-reach inspection.

Format F

Power lines

Overhead MV/HV inspection, insulators, poles. For distribution operators.

From first email
to engineering report

Technical inspections are fast — 5-step process, total 5-10 days.

01

Brief and docs

Object plan, technical data, renovation history, UDT/PINB docs. We define the critical area.

1-3 days
02

Day selection

Weather check + airspace zones. No rain, wind < 30 km/h. Chimney interiors — without shutting down the plant.

2-7 days
03

Inspection flight

Photos from 30-50 m, 23x zoom for detail, gigapixel for the whole object. 1-2 hours on site.

60-120 min
04

Defect analysis

We review 200-500 photos, tag defects with GPS, classify per PN-EN, consult with a structural engineer.

2-3 days
05

PDF report

Full report, signed by qualified operator. Format accepted by UDT, PINB, banks and insurers.

questions

Sample report, insurance policy, operator certificates — PDF on request.

  • From 30 metres a single shot is around 1-2 mm/pixel — enough to see hairline cracks in grout. Gigapixel imagery extends this across the whole object.

  • Yes, with a small drone (DJI Mini or Avata) and the dust extractor turned off during the inspection. For dirty flues — camera filter cleaning between flights.

  • Yes. Format aligned with Polish building standards — PN-EN 1990 for structures, PN-EN 13187 for thermography. We work with certified structural engineers.

  • No. We stand off safely (15 m for MV, 30 m for HV). protocol for distribution operators (PGE, Enea, Tauron) — dedicated clearances.

  • Yes — 50% of the first inspection price. Same flight plan, identical positions, before/after documentation. Standard for insurers.

  • The final report is always signed by a certified structural engineer (Uprawnienia Budowlane Bez Ograniczeń, Polish unrestricted construction design licence, general construction specialisation). The drone operator delivers the raw photographic material, and the engineer performs the classification (A/B/C/D), the defect description, and the recommendations. This is what sets us apart from 90% of drone services - they issue a drone-inspector report, which neither insurers nor UDT (Urząd Dozoru Technicznego, Office of Technical Inspection) accept.

  • 24 hours before the inspection we send a safety briefing to everyone working on site. On the day of the inspection - a 30-minute work pause in the flight zone (shopping centre roof, power plant grounds, chimney). Propeller guards on the drone, speed limited to 8 m/s, minimum distance to people of 5 metres.

  • Rain of any intensity - we do not work (the Mavic 3 Cine is not waterproof, with a risk of optics damage). Fog with visibility < 100 m - we do not work (an EASA requirement for visual line of sight, VLOS). Light drizzle at +10-20°C - a formal refusal, we reschedule with no penalty. Dense fog in November-February - a rare event in Mazowieckie, typically 2-3 times per season.
