What We Inspect & Capture
EntireFM deploys industrial inspection UAVs equipped with high-resolution mechanical zoom optics to capture millimeter-level structural detail. Every flight converts raw aerial visual evidence into structured condition reports and actionable maintenance orders.
High-Level Visual Audits
4K/8K optical capture of inaccessible structural elements, towers, spires, and high-rise facades.
Rooftop Plant & Deck Surveys
Inspection of AHUs, chillers, pipework bridges, louvres, and duct penetrations across complex roofscapes.
Structural Anomaly Mapping
Close-range documentation of spalling masonry, corroded structural steel, loose fixings, and storm impact.
Defect Condition Scoring
Standardized RAG condition grading categorized by urgency, asset risk, and recommended remediation timeline.
Typical Facilities Management Applications
Real-world operational use cases where aerial drone surveys deliver maximum safety and commercial efficiency.
Commercial Office Towers
Inaccessible spires, high-level plant decks, and architectural fin structures inspected safely.
Industrial Chimneys & Flues
High-temperature exhausts, guy wires, and masonry stacks surveyed without scaffolding.
Logistics Roofscapes
Rapid 100,000+ sq ft roof condition surveys before tenant lease renewals or dilapidations.
Structural Towers & Masts
Communications infrastructure, floodlight pylons, and high-voltage substation gantries.
What We Look For
Common structural defects, waterproofing failures, and performance anomalies isolated during survey analysis.
Structural Steelwork Corrosion
Visual Indicator: Paint delamination, surface rust, and compromised bolt torque tags
High-Level Masonry Spalling
Visual Indicator: Fractured coping stones, loose mortar, and falling debris hazards
Roof Plant Vibration Fatigue
Visual Indicator: Cracked anti-vibration mountings and damaged flexible duct joints

What You Receive
Structured, georeferenced survey deliverables formatted for property managers, structural engineers, and CAFM databases.
High-Resolution Visual Log
Georeferenced optical stills with full zoom detail for structural review.
Annotated Defect Schedule
Classified RAG defect inventory with coordinates, floor levels, and repair timelines.
CAFM Remedial Scope
Structured maintenance actions ready for physical contractor dispatch.
What happens if we
find a problem?
When a drone inspection flags a loose component, failed seal, or structural hazard, EntireFM coordinates the physical repair. We deploy IRATA-certified rope access technicians, BMU cradles, or mechanical engineers to rectify the issue, verifying completion in EntireCAFM.
One Accountable Partner: We move seamlessly from inspection to investigation, quotation, specialist access, physical repair, and CAFM verification.
