Drone facade inspection in Tourcoing
In Tourcoing, façade surveys concern the centre's older buildings as much as residential blocks and public buildings: the drone records cracks, spalling and render defects over the full height, including where no lift can reach. From MUba et l'ancienne piscine de Tourcoing to the outlying districts, our pilots know the terrain of Tourcoing and prepare every flight on the local aeronautical chart.
Tourcoing literally touches Belgium: the border runs along the commune's edge and every flight plan must guarantee no trajectory spills into Belgian airspace, which follows different registration rules. The city sits in the dense urban continuum of the Lille metropolis — built-up-area scenario throughout — and remains under the influence of the Lille-Lesquin CTR to the south. The Tourcoing market is one of textile-era regeneration: the imposing brick industrial heritage (mills, industrialists' mansions) is being converted into housing and offices, with strong demand for roof surveys and construction monitoring.

Does the drone replace scaffolding for a façade survey in Tourcoing?
