Complete Drone Services for Singapore
SG Drone Inspections is a professional drone company in Singapore providing commercial drone services across inspection, survey, monitoring, and maintenance applications. We operate under CAAS permits with fully insured operations, serving property managers, building owners, industrial operators, marine companies, construction firms, and government agencies.
Our fleet includes high-resolution visual drones, thermal imaging platforms, collision-tolerant confined space drones, underwater ROVs, and specialised cleaning drones. Every project is operated by experienced, CAAS-registered pilots following approved Standard Operating Procedures. Below is an overview of every drone service we offer in Singapore.
Our Drone Services
Facade Drone Inspection
BCA-compliant facade inspection using TR 78 methodology. High-resolution 48MP imagery and optional thermal scanning of building facades for periodic facade inspection (PFI) compliance. Detects spalling, cracks, tile debonding, sealant failure, and cladding defects. No scaffolding or rope access required. From $3,000.
Drone Roof Inspection
Comprehensive roof condition assessment using aerial and close-range drone imagery. Identifies membrane damage, ponding, flashing deterioration, gutter blockages, rooftop equipment corrosion, and structural issues. Eliminates the need for personnel to access potentially unsafe roof surfaces. From $1,500.
Industrial Drone Inspection
Inspection of industrial assets including storage tanks, columns, pipe racks, flare stacks, chimneys, cooling towers, and structural steelwork. Reduces shutdown duration by up to 70% compared to scaffolding. Suited for oil and gas refineries, petrochemical plants, power stations, and manufacturing facilities.
Thermal Drone Inspection
Infrared thermal imaging from the air to detect heat anomalies, moisture ingress, insulation voids, electrical hotspots, and equipment overheating. Applications include building envelope assessment, solar panel defect scanning, flat roof leak detection, and electrical infrastructure inspection.
Confined Space Drone Inspection
Collision-tolerant drones (Flyability Elios) navigate enclosed and GPS-denied environments — boilers, pressure vessels, tanks, ballast compartments, ducts, and tunnels. Eliminates confined space entry risks and reduces inspection time from days to hours. Full HD video and 3D modelling capability.
Marine and Underwater Inspection
Underwater ROVs and aerial drones for marine asset inspection — ship hulls, jetty piles, quay walls, underwater pipelines, port infrastructure, and subsea structures. Replaces commercial divers for routine inspections. HD video, sonar imaging, and thickness measurement capabilities.
Construction Monitoring
Regular aerial surveys of construction sites for progress tracking, volumetric measurement, as-built comparison, and stakeholder reporting. Orthomosaic maps, 3D models, and time-lapse documentation. Weekly, fortnightly, or monthly flyover packages available for projects of any scale.
Drone Cleaning Services
High-pressure drone cleaning for building facades, solar panels, glass curtain walls, and hard-to-reach surfaces. Our cleaning drones carry pressurised water systems and operate at height without scaffolding, rope access, or gondolas. Ideal for maintaining building aesthetics between PFI cycles.
Industries We Serve
Our drone services support a wide range of industries across Singapore. Each sector has specific inspection requirements, regulatory frameworks, and operational constraints — and we have the experience and equipment to meet all of them.
Property Management
MCSTs, Town Councils, and property management companies rely on our drone services for BCA periodic facade inspection, roof condition surveys, and building maintenance planning. We coordinate directly with appointed Competent Persons (PEs and RAs) and deliver data in formats ready for BCA submission.
Oil, Gas and Petrochemical
Refineries, petrochemical plants, and tank farms on Jurong Island and across Singapore use our industrial drones for turnaround inspections, flare stack surveys, tank shell assessments, and pipe rack inspections. We reduce shutdown durations and eliminate the need for extensive scaffolding in hazardous areas.
Construction
Developers, main contractors, and project managers use our aerial survey drones for site progress documentation, volumetric earthwork measurement, as-built surveys, and facade inspection of newly completed buildings. Drone data integrates with BIM workflows for design-versus-build comparison.
Marine and Shipping
Shipyards, port operators, and vessel owners use our aerial and underwater drones for hull inspection, jetty pile assessment, quay wall surveys, and ballast tank inspection. Our marine inspection services support class society requirements and reduce dry-docking dependencies.
Solar Energy
Solar farm operators and rooftop PV system owners use our thermal drones to scan solar panel arrays for hotspots, micro-cracks, cell degradation, junction box failures, and string-level anomalies. A single drone flight can scan thousands of panels in hours, identifying issues that reduce power output.
Government and Statutory Boards
Government agencies, statutory boards, and infrastructure operators engage our drone services for bridge inspection, dam monitoring, reservoir surveys, telecommunications tower inspection, and public housing facade assessments. We hold the permits and insurance required for government project participation.
Why Choose SG Drone Inspections
Choosing the right drone service provider in Singapore matters. Here is what sets us apart from other drone companies operating in Singapore.
CAAS Licensed Operations
All operations are conducted under valid CAAS (Civil Aviation Authority of Singapore) permits. Our pilots hold current UA Pilot Licences and operate under approved Standard Operating Procedures. We handle all permit applications and airspace coordination — including operations in controlled airspace near Changi, Paya Lebar, and Seletar.
$1 Million Public Liability Insurance
Every project is covered by $1,000,000 public liability insurance. This protects our clients, building occupants, and the public against any damage or injury arising from drone operations. Our insurance coverage meets the requirements of most property managers, MCSTs, and industrial facility operators.
Island-Wide Coverage
We operate across all of Singapore — from CBD high-rises and Sentosa resorts to Jurong Island refineries and Changi industrial estates. Our team is experienced with the specific airspace requirements, access logistics, and coordination protocols for every district and zone in Singapore.
Full Fleet of Specialised Drones
We do not operate a single drone for every job. Our fleet includes high-resolution visual drones (48MP), thermal imaging platforms (radiometric IR cameras), collision-tolerant indoor drones (Flyability Elios), underwater ROVs, and cleaning drones. The right tool for every inspection requirement.
End-to-End Service
From initial consultation and CAAS permit application through to data capture, processing, analysis, and report delivery — we handle everything. No subcontracting, no fragmented workflows. One team, one point of contact, and a comprehensive deliverable package tailored to your reporting requirements.
Proven Track Record
We have completed drone inspection and survey projects across hundreds of buildings, industrial facilities, marine assets, and construction sites in Singapore. Our clients include MCSTs, property management companies, EPC contractors, oil majors, shipyards, and government agencies.
How It Works
Engaging our drone services is straightforward. Here is what to expect from enquiry to deliverable.
Tell Us What You Need
WhatsApp or call us with your project details — building address, asset type, inspection scope, and timeline. We reply with a fixed-price quote within 24 hours. No site visit needed for quoting in most cases.
We Handle the Permits
Our team applies for all required CAAS activity permits and coordinates airspace approvals. We also liaise with your site management, security team, or MCST to schedule the operation at a convenient time.
Data Capture On-Site
Our pilots execute the inspection or survey using the appropriate drone platform. Operations are typically completed in half a day or less for standard projects. We conduct safety briefings, establish exclusion zones, and maintain full operational control throughout.
