Property Management and Facility Management

For property managers and facility managers, a drone provides a coherent visual record of building areas visible from the air. It can reduce the need for initial access by lift or scaffolding.

The images show visible conditions on roof surfaces, flashings, facades, and gutters. They can help prioritise where a building specialist or tradesperson should investigate further.

  • Document visible wear on facades and roofs
  • Flag areas for further professional assessment
  • Compare visual documentation over time
  • Reduce the need for initial access at height

Construction — visual progress documentation

On construction projects, repeat flights can document visible changes from consistent angles and give clients, advisers, and contractors a shared visual reference.

The material can supplement project quality assurance and handover records, but it does not replace professional supervision, measurements, or approvals.

  • Ongoing visual documentation
  • Repeatable capture angles
  • Images for status updates
  • Before-and-after comparison of renovations

Insurance cases — visual damage documentation

After a storm or other damage, drone images can quickly document visible conditions on roofs and facades without first sending a person onto the structure. Timing depends on weather, airspace, and site access.

The material can be shared with an assessor, tradesperson, or adviser as a visual reference. The cause, extent of damage, and insurance assessment must be determined by the appropriate specialist.

  • Document visible storm damage
  • Capture without physical roof access
  • Overview and detail images by agreement
  • Comparison with earlier imagery

Industrial structures

Silos, chimneys, tanks, and other tall structures can be photographed from agreed angles without initial climbing. This gives the technical adviser visual material for further assessment.

  • Visual documentation of silos and tanks
  • Chimneys photographed without initial climbing
  • Overview and detail imagery
  • Material for subsequent professional assessment

How an inspection works

We agree in advance which visible areas and capture angles should be documented.

01

Scope

We agree the purpose, areas, angles, and required delivery.

02

Flight plan

We assess weather, airspace, access, and safety before capture.

03

Capture

The drone systematically photographs the agreed visible areas.

04

Delivery

You receive high-resolution images and, if agreed, a structured photo overview.

What can drone inspection be used for?

Drone inspection is relevant for all industries that need to inspect hard-to-reach areas safely and efficiently.

Roofs and roof surfaces

Document visible tiles, flashings, moss, surface wear, and other conditions that may need closer assessment.

Facades and masonry

Photograph visible cracks, discolouration, and peeling paint on tall or hard-to-reach facades.

Storm damage

Create a visual overview of visible changes after a storm when weather and flight conditions allow.

Construction sites

Document visible progress from agreed angles as a supplement to other project supervision.

Industrial facilities

Photograph silos, chimneys, and other tall structures for subsequent specialist assessment.

Gutters and drains

Document visible blockages, damage, and maintenance needs in gutters and downpipes.

Scope of the delivery

A drone inspection from rt rosenberg is visual photographic documentation—not a signed condition report or technical diagnosis. Hidden moisture, leaks, structural weaknesses, causes, and remedial work require an appropriate building specialist or tradesperson and may require physical access.

Frequently asked questions

Everything you need to know about drone inspection

Drone inspection is used for visual documentation of roofs, facades, chimneys, silos, and other hard-to-reach structures. The images can show visible conditions and help a building specialist or tradesperson decide where closer investigation is needed.
A drone provides high-resolution overview and detail images without physical roof access, but it does not replace a specialist's hands-on inspection. Hidden moisture, leaks, structural conditions, and causes may require measurements, samples, or physical access.
Timing is agreed based on the scope, location, weather, and applicable flight conditions. For time-critical assignments, we check the earliest safe opportunity, but we do not promise a same-day flight before those conditions have been assessed.
Yes, we hold an A2 certificate and commercial liability insurance. Before a flight, we assess the airspace, surroundings, and safety requirements and plan the capture according to the rules that apply at the specific location.
A visual basic inspection with high-resolution images starts from 3,000 kr excl. VAT. The final price depends on factors including area, number of buildings, access, location, and the required delivery. .
By default, we deliver the agreed high-resolution images. A structured photo overview with image markings and descriptions of visible observations can be added by agreement. It is not a technical condition report and does not contain a diagnosis or remedial instructions.
