Making money with a drone for building inspections. From the idea to the production of the service and its delivery to the customer
Drone building inspections are one of the fastest growing niches in the drone services market. Property managers, housing communities, construction companies and insurers are increasingly looking for operators who can not only fly a drone, but deliver a finished product: an inspection report with marked defects, technical documentation and decision-ready material. The problem is that most operators don’t know where to start, how to price such a service, and how to package it into an offer that the client will understand and pay for.
During this webinar, we’ll walk you through the entire process – from the idea for an inspection service, to preparing the raid and collecting data, to creating the report and delivering it to the client in a way that builds trust and opens the door to more orders.

For whom?
The webinar is for drone operators who want to get into building inspections or expand their offerings to include this service. It is also for drone and surveying companies looking for new revenue streams that don’t require a large equipment investment. We also invite those who are just planning to start in drone services and want to understand what the full cycle of an inspection order looks like – from the initial contact with the client to the delivery of the report.
What will it be about?
We will show you step-by-step how to build a drone building inspection service that makes good business sense.
We’ll start with what types of inspections are most in demand in the market today – roofs, facades, balconies, chimneys, flashings – and who pays for them.
Then we will move on to practice: how to plan an inspection raid, what parameters to set, what to pay attention to during the flight and how to collect material that you will easily turn into a report later.
In the second part, we will focus on the final product. We will show what a professional inspection report looks like, how to use the inspection module in the SkySnap Portal to mark defects, generate PDF reports and communicate the results to the customer.
We’ll also talk about pricing – how much does such a service cost, how to build pricing packages, and how to communicate the value of an inspection to a client who has so far paid for a lift and a height team.
What you will learn at the meeting
You will learn about the drone building inspection market and where to look for your first customers. You’ll see how to go from raid to finished report in a repeatable and scalable way. You’ll learn the tools for creating inspection reports in the SkySnap Portal – with tags, photos, geolocation of problems and export to PDF. You’ll understand how to price an inspection service so that you have a realistic margin, and how to talk to clients about the value of drone data instead of the price per flight.

Why is it worth it?
Because building inspections are a service that combines a low entry threshold with high customer value. You don’t need expensive equipment or sophisticated software to get started. What you do need is to know how to do it right – how to gather the right material, how to process it, and how to present it to the client in a way that turns a one-time order into an ongoing partnership. That’s what you’ll learn in this webinar.
