🏢 FACADE INSPECTION · AGEN (47) · €300–1,200 PER JOB
Drone facade inspection in Agen
In Agen, damp rising from the Garonne marks the façades: saltpetre at street level, blistered render, soiled stone. Drone inspection covers the old centre's narrow streets and inner courtyards without closing the road. With 32,485 inhabitants, Agen generates steady demand in Nouvelle-Aquitaine: a pilot covering the area prices your mission within one working day.
The Agen economy relies on food production (IGP prunes, the fruit-and-vegetable sector of Lot-et-Garonne, France's leading orchard), the pioneering Agropole food-tech park, the national prison-service academy (ENAP) and SUA rugby. Drone missions: precision agriculture and orchards, agri-food communication, real estate, construction monitoring, canal river tourism. Prefecture of Lot-et-Garonne, halfway between Bordeaux and Toulouse, Agen is inseparable from its prune — the ente plum dries on the surrounding hillsides — and from its 539-metre canal bridge, one of France's longest, carrying the lateral canal across the Garonne: a splendid aerial subject.

Local regulations: flying in Agen
Flying along a façade in Agen remains possible under the controlled airspace (Aérodrome d'Agen-La Garenne (LFBA)): these very-low-height flights, hugging the building, need a simple protocol our pilot sets up.
Façade inspection is flown close to the building, generally in the specific category in town (prior declaration) with a ground safety perimeter; outside built-up areas the open category is usually enough. Full regulations and rates: facade inspection across France →

Frequently asked questions
Facade inspection in Agen: what budget should you plan?
Allow €300–1,200 per job — the 2026 French market range, including regulatory preparation, flight and delivery. In Agen, coordination with the local airspace is included in the quote and arranged within a few days.
Does the drone replace scaffolding for a façade survey in Agen?
For the survey itself, yes in most cases: the drone photographs every defect in high definition from base to cornice, at a fraction of scaffolding cost. If contact testing proves necessary, the report pinpoints where — a real saving for buildings in Agen.
Does the drone fully replace an engineering survey?
No: the drone provides the exhaustive, documented visual record; structural interpretation of defects remains the engineer's or architect's job. Our reports are designed to feed directly into their analysis.
