Drones can be extremely affective for property service needs and drones at construction sites.
Builders use drones to collect real-time data about projects and understand what’s happening on site. Aerial insights improve progress tracking and help catch problems early — before they become costly or add weeks to a project’s timeline.
Drones change the game in communication. A [drone] photo is worth a thousand words, and potentially millions of dollars.”
— Ryan Moret, Field Solutions Manager at McCarthy Building Companies
Construction progress reports are often prepared monthly to record site progress against the project programme. These reports include the surveyor or CA taking multiple photographs of various parts of the site.
A regular drone flight can be a speedy way to record and visualise project progress. Through a series of aerial shots and HD video project stake holders can gain a better insight into the progress that has been made without actually being on-site.
Carrying out planned or reactive maintenance inspections of high-up structures such as bridges, towers, roofs and scaffolding, can often involve costly access arrangements, and site personnel working at height.
Drones can provide a quicker and easier way of carrying out the inspections, feeding back HD real-time footage to the engineer or surveyor from the ground
When you have to frequently shuttle between multiple job sites, or have taken up simultaneous renovation & facelift for multiple properties; putting up a drone to monitor the progress, work, safety standards and much more can save you a lot of energy, time & money.
When your workers are on a job site, the main objective that any project manager could wish for is keeping them productive. It is understandable that energy levels will ebb and flow, but you can also detect if any equipment shows up missing, or if other areas may need more workers designated to them for special accommodations.
If safety standards are one of the elements you are trying to monitor, one important aspect to keep in mind is that you will be flying a bit low to the ground.
As soon as a pilot has experimented with this for awhile it is fine, but this is a part of the operation where you could be buzzing a bit lower than for general birds eye photography. Saving time from traveling between job sites is also a great benefit, as a worker at the adjacent site can fly a drone up and transmit you the photos or video.
We can give you video footage to give to contractors to provide you an estimate or for a bid. We do roof inspections on residential and commercial properties for insurance companies, roofing companies, businesses, and home owners. Drones can fly extremely close to structures, making the inspection of roofs with complicated designs and hard to reach areas much more efficient and accurate. Our drones can also reach areas that have been made inaccessible due to catastrophic events, such as floods, tornadoes, fires etc. We offer rapid assessment & problem area identification for any roof. We provide our clients with high quality photos that make it easy to process insurance claims, underwriting inspections and show the customer examples of the problem areas. Our drones capture clear images of all kinds of damage including hail, wind, loose/missing shingles, etc. Contact us to learn more.
Drones can get close to HVAC systems and allow companies review of commercial buildings’ systems. This can be used for potential acquisition assessments to determine if you may have to replace any systems involved.
The old way of doing Cell Tower Inspections required several pieces of equipment and a person to climb up the structure. This also takes a lot time and has the potential of serious injury. With a drone, it provides a cost effective way to inspect structures quicker, safer, and saves staff. MDP’s professional experience can safely maneuver close enough to retrieve high-resolution photos and video of the structure and components. The structure being inspected always remains operational while we safely asses its condition.
Impressive photography is becoming more and more important in the way construction organizations promote their business, especially as the use of social media is becoming more important as a work tool.
The ability to capture impressive 4K HD video and photos from unique angles can provide an interesting insight into a project or building, making it great for marketing material.
When carrying out high risk work on-site it may be necessary for certain professionals to gain real-time updates on what is happening. Can be provided to the project team or project stakeholders.
In particular, this could be a great tool for estate agents looking to demonstrate impressive shots of a property or building they are looking to sell!
