Industrial Drone Roof Inspections & Building Surveys

Falls from roofs are one of the leading causes of workplace accidents on industrial and construction sites. With drone roof inspections, you can safely inspect roofs, chimneys, towers, wind turbines, stadiums, and other hard-to-reach structures without the need for ladders, scaffolding, or cherry pickers.

Using commercial drones for industrial inspections, our team captures high-resolution images and HD video, providing accurate data for roof surveys, building inspections, and maintenance planning. Drone inspections are faster, safer, and more cost-effective than traditional methods, saving you time and money.

Our remotely piloted drone services can access even the most difficult structures, offering detailed visual assessments for safety audits, damage evaluation, or ongoing monitoring.

Top Drone delivers professional drone inspection services across Ireland and internationally, specialising in industrial roof inspections, building surveys, and infrastructure assessments. Get reliable, actionable insights from our drone inspections without putting your team at risk.

Using drones for inspections and surveying can cut project costs by 70–85% compared to traditional access methods. A typical roof inspection might require €1,400 worth of scaffolding or €1,000 for a cherry picker. A drone can capture the same data for around €500, often in a fraction of the time.

Beyond cost savings, drone inspections dramatically reduce risk. There’s no need to put staff on scaffolding, climb awkward structures, or send teams to hard-to-reach areas. A quick aerial survey delivers high-resolution visual data safely and efficiently.

Please note: We provide aerial data, imagery, and measurements, but we are not certified surveyors. Our drone outputs are designed to support your team’s work—not replace the need for a qualified surveyor when one is required.

Drone Solar Farm Inspections

Fast, Accurate, and Essential for Performance

Solar farms are expanding rapidly across Ireland, and with most solar panels having a lifespan of around 20 years, regular inspections are crucial. While solar panels are generally reliable and efficient, they’re not completely free from defects.

Quality can vary widely between manufacturers, and even the best panels can develop problems over time.

Undetected defects can lead to a significant drop in energy production, and in severe cases, even pose a fire risk. Catching these issues early is the key to protecting performance and avoiding costly failures.

Using drones for solar farm inspections offers a fast, efficient, and highly accurate way to identify defects, hotspots, and underperforming panels before they escalate.

Drone thermal imaging and high-resolution photography provide clear, actionable data, helping you maintain output, reduce downtime, and maximise the return on your solar investment. Top Drone delivers professional solar farm inspection services nationwide.

Drone Bridge Inspections

Safer, Faster, and Far Less Disruptive

Bridges require regular, detailed inspections to ensure their structural integrity and safety. Traditionally, this involves traffic management, lane closures, and specialised safety equipment, causing disruption for road users and increasing the risks for inspectors working at height.

That’s where drone bridge inspections offer a better solution. Using high-resolution photography and detailed video, drones capture the essential visual data needed to assess a bridge’s condition quickly and safely.

Drone inspections significantly reduce the need for traffic closures, eliminate many of the dangers associated with manual inspections, and provide precise imagery for accurate structural assessments.

Fast, efficient, and cost-effective, drone bridge inspections provide a smarter, safer way to monitor bridge integrity with minimal disruption. Book a professional bridge inspection with Top Drone today and get the accurate, high-quality data you need—safely, quickly, and without the downtime.

Drone Wind Turbine Inspections

Faster, Safer, and More Cost-Effective

Using drones for wind turbine inspections delivers a major advantage over traditional rope access methods. Drone inspections drastically cut on-site time, reduce costs, and eliminate many safety risks faced by technicians working at height.

With high-resolution imagery and detailed video, drones can identify blade erosion, cracks, lightning strikes, surface defects, and mechanical damage far more efficiently than manual inspections. This means fewer shutdowns, reduced labour, and faster reporting, keeping your turbines productive and your maintenance schedules on track.

Drone inspections also allow maintenance teams to focus on repairs instead of access. The result is a smoother workflow, less downtime, and clearer insights into the overall health of your turbines.

Get in touch with Top Drone today and discover how our drone wind turbine inspections can save you money, cut risks, and deliver the high-quality data you need to keep your turbines performing at their best.

Drone Inspections for the Insurance Industry

Fast, Accurate, and Cost-Saving

Drones are transforming the insurance industry by delivering fast, safe, and highly accurate inspections. Using UAV technology, we can quickly assess the condition of buildings, roofs, and sites affected by storms, flooding, fire, or structural damage—without the delays, risks, or costs associated with traditional methods.

For insurance companies, drone inspections provide high-quality aerial photography and video that clearly document affected areas. This makes claim assessments more reliable, speeds up decision-making, and reduces the need for dangerous manual checks.

From homes and commercial buildings to construction sites, landscapes, and large outdoor events, drones make it possible to inspect and survey locations safely and efficiently.

With rapid deployment and precise data capture, drones drastically cut the time required for assessments, helping insurers handle claims faster while reducing operational costs.
