Drone facade inspection in Mont-de-Marsan
Before renovating a façade in Mont-de-Marsan, a drone survey prevents nasty site surprises: cracks, spalling and hollow-sounding areas are mapped over the building's full elevation. From the town centre to the business parks, the pilots covering Mont-de-Marsan and its department (40) match equipment and flight plan to each order.
The local economy blends defence, administration, food production (poultry, maize, nearby Armagnac) and forestry — the Landes de Gascogne forest, western Europe's largest planted forest, surrounds the town and faces summer overflight restrictions during fire-risk periods. Drone missions: agriculture and forestry, construction monitoring, heritage, communication for the poultry and Armagnac sectors. Prefecture of the Landes at the confluence of the Douze and Midou rivers (forming the Midouze), Mont-de-Marsan is above all, for drone pilots, a city under military air authority: air base 118, one of France's largest, fields Rafales, test squadrons and the air-warfare expertise centre — its prohibited and restricted zones cover much of the sector, and any local mission is prepared with the drone map and, often, coordination with the base.

€300–1,200 per job — the range observed on the 2026 French market, including regulatory preparation, flight and delivery. The exact quote depends on the site, the deliverable and the airspace context in Mont-de-Marsan.
The airspace context in Mont-de-Marsan
In Mont-de-Marsan, façade inspection inside the no-fly area (Zones interdites et réglementées de la base aérienne 118 (Rafale, expérimentation)) needs authorisation even a few metres from the building: we prepare the file with the managing agent or client and set the date once cleared.
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 →

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 Mont-de-Marsan.
Can you inspect a facade on a busy street?
Yes, with a specific-category flight declared to the préfecture and a ground safety perimeter managed by an assistant. We often work early in the morning to minimise disturbance to pedestrians.
