The power of the ocean is not one to be taken lightly. Over time it can erode everything. Which is why it is so important that coastal walls are regularly inspected for signs of wear and damage.
At Balmore Inspection Services, our drone survey services offer the perfect solution for the essential inspection of coastal walls.

Our drones are equipped with state of the art thermal imaging and HD camera equipment that allows us to capture in incredible detail, vast areas of coastal wall.
Aerial Drone Surveys
Our state of the art drone surveys can span large areas of coastal wall in a single flight. Using award winning cloud based software, we can produce powerful reporting tools that can be easily passed on to structural engineers and relevant maintenance experts in order to best maintain and monitor coastal wall conditions.

Underwater Drone Surveys
One of the things that makes us unique compared to our rivals is that we are not JUST an aerial drone inspection service. We also offer underwater ROV Inspection services. Normally used for the likes of underwater pipeline inspection and offshore wind farms, our ROV inspections for coastal walls can prove invaluable for inspecting what is beneath the waves. Structural cracks, water erosion and even bio-matter build up can be easily identified with our underwater inspection services.

Thermal Imaging Inspection
Thermal imaging cameras equipped to our drone survey vehicles can be used to identify:
- Thermal bridging
- Heat loss
- Water ingress
- Roof leaks
- Missing insulation
- Damp
- Leaking pipes
- Cracks & Structural Weak Points
- and more
Offshore Access
When it comes to coastal wall drone surveys, there is still the issue with accessing the locations that require inspection. At Balmore, our investment in our services once again shines ahead of our competitors. We have our very own Access Craft – Balmore 16. We are commercially endorsed for operating Power Driven Vessels up to 24 metres with up to 12 passengers and crew.
