Building Envelope Inspections - Brady Infrared Inspections, Inc.

Identify Hidden Building Envelope Defects Before They Cause Damage

Brady Infrared uses advanced drone-based infrared imaging to detect building envelope issues such as moisture intrusion, energy loss, and façade cracking before they become costly problems.

Why Building Envelope Inspections Matter

A building’s envelope plays a crucial role in protecting the interior from the elements. Brady Infrared uses advanced drone-based infrared imaging to detect building envelope issues such as moisture intrusion, energy loss, and façade cracking before they become costly problems. Early detection prevents major damage, reduces repair costs, and enhances energy efficiency across all building types, including commercial, industrial, and institutional facilities.

Dis-bonded Stucco

Infrared imaging can detect detached stucco which may hide moisture and lead to further damage.

Trapped Moisture

Brady Infrared scans identify hidden moisture behind walls that could lead to mold, rotting, or structural issues.

Building Envelope Defects

Brady Infrared’s high-resolution drone camera systems ensure complete inspection coverage to document defects such as cracks, paint blisters, damaged flashing, and other faults.

How Our Building Envelope Inspections Work

Brady Infrared uses drone-equipped thermal cameras to inspect the exterior of buildings, capturing high-resolution infrared images to detect hidden defects. This non-invasive method is safe and highly effective for large or multi-story buildings.

Our drone-based inspections provide non-invasive, high-resolution images of your building’s exterior, helping you identify defects that can lead to costly damage.

Drones equipped with thermal cameras

We fly drones equipped with high-resolution thermal cameras close to building surfaces to capture detailed images of the envelope and identify defects like moisture or energy loss.

Detection of moisture, cracking, and energy loss

We locate trapped moisture, façade cracking, and areas of energy inefficiency—issues that are often invisible to the naked eye.

Inspection of curtain walls, windows, and siding

Thermal imaging identifies gaps, cracks, and deterioration in all major envelope components such as curtain walls, windows, and siding.

High-resolution, actionable reports

We provide detailed reports with annotated thermograms and clear recommendations for addressing defects.
