WINDOW SURVEYS
Upper-storey windows checked for wear, without a cherry picker.
Frame condition, seal failure and glazing damage are hard to assess from the ground on anything above the first floor. A drone survey gets close enough to see the detail properly.
What you get
- Close-up imagery of every window checked
- No cherry picker or MEWP booking
- Coverage across multiple elevations in one visit
- Useful ahead of replacement quoting
What a window survey looks for
Window problems at height are usually reported by tenants or noticed too late — a survey catches them before that happens.
Frame condition
Rot, corrosion or cracking in timber, uPVC or aluminium frames.
Seal failure
Failed double-glazing units showing as misting or condensation between panes.
Glazing damage
Cracked or chipped glass, and damaged or missing beading.
Cill condition
Cracking, staining or water pooling on window cills.
Staining below openings
Streaking on the facade that points to a specific window as the source.
Fixture condition
Visible damage to hinges, handles or opening mechanisms where identifiable.

STEP 1
Tell us what needs looking at
A call or a form, building type, what’s prompted it, and roughly where you are.

Airspace, site access and any local restrictions are cleared before a date is booked in.
STEP 3
The flight takes place
I carry out the survey on site, on a date that works for you.
STEP 4
You get your report
High-resolution images and data delivered securely, with a written condition report if you’ve asked for one.
Who asks for a window survey
Landlords
Condition checks across a block ahead of a replacement programme.
Facilities managers
Identifying which windows need attention before booking access equipment for the whole job.
Window contractors
Accurate imagery to quote from, without a preliminary site visit at height.
Planning a window replacement programme?
A survey first tells you exactly which windows need it, and which don’t.
