Camera Pole Survey: A Safe and Effective Way to Inspect Your Property
A camera pole survey is a safe and effective way to inspect your property for potential damage or defects.
It is a non-invasive method that uses a telescopic camera on a pole to access hard-to-reach areas, such as the roof, gutters, and chimney.
Sectional poles allow surveyors to extend a camera up a number of meters and hold a 44ft extending wireless HD camera, which simultaneously links to a touchscreen display at the bottom of the pole.
This creates both real-time images and photos.
They are predominantly used for assessing box gutters and areas behind parapet walls, the top of chimney stacks and to assess whether they have been properly capped off, ventilated and to check the condition of benching/bedding mortar around pots.
Camera Poles are also used for inspecting flat roofs over double-storey bays and other inaccessible flat-roofed areas, which would otherwise be concealed or not visible with the use of binoculars.
Here are some of the benefits of using a camera pole survey:
- It is a safe and non-invasive method of inspection.
- Can be used to inspect hard-to-reach areas.
- It is reliably accurate.
- Images taken can immediately explain the precise areas where there is a problem.
- Enable a complete diagnosis without the health & safety implications of ladder usage.
- It provides a comprehensive view of your property.
- It is quick and easy to perform, especially in comparison to a drone.
If you are considering buying a home, selling a home, or simply want to make sure your home is in good condition, a camera pole survey is a great option.
