Building Stock Profile

Sarasota's building stock includes an estimated 80+ condominium and apartment buildings above three stories, plus approximately 500+ commercial structures. The predominant construction era is 1970s-2010s with growing downtown high-rise market, with facades primarily consisting of reinforced concrete, glass curtain wall, stucco, precast concrete. Sarasota is experiencing a rapid shift from mid-rise to high-rise development, with new towers along the bayfront changing the skyline — creating demand for construction monitoring alongside milestone inspections of the older buildings they're rising beside.

Regulatory Requirements

Florida's SB-4D legislation requires milestone structural inspections for buildings 3+ stories at 25 years from the Certificate of Occupancy, with subsequent inspections every 10 years. An estimated 50+ buildings in Sarasota are approaching or have passed this threshold.

Our Process

How PMP Works in Sarasota


From initial consultation to PE-certified report delivery — here is how we execute preventative maintenance program for Sarasota County properties.

01

Consultation & Planning

We assess your Sarasota building's specifics — height, facade materials, access constraints, and Class C airspace requirements. A detailed flight plan is created and all FAA authorizations secured.

02

Drone Data Capture

FAA Part 107 certified pilots deploy commercial drones equipped with 50MP cameras to systematically capture your building's construction site. A typical mapping flight takes 4-8 hours depending on building size.

03

AI Analysis & Engineering Review

Captured imagery is processed through our AI defect detection pipeline, classifying up to 20 defect types with GPS coordinates. A Florida-licensed Professional Engineer reviews the findings and prepares the progress report.

04

Report Delivery & Action Plan

Your PE-certified report is delivered promptly. It includes high-resolution imagery, AI defect classifications, repair priorities, and cost estimates — everything Sarasota County engineers and property managers need to take action.

Frequently Asked Questions


Frequency for Gulf Coast?

Semi-annual recommended for all coastal Gulf properties, especially post-hurricane.

Why is semi-annual monitoring recommended for Gulf Coast properties?

The combination of Gulf salt exposure, hurricane risk, and subtropical humidity drives faster deterioration than inland locations. Semi-annual inspections catch accelerating damage between cycles and provide the documentation needed for insurance renewals and SIRS compliance.

How does monitoring help with Gulf Coast insurance renewals?

Documented, ongoing monitoring demonstrates proactive building management to insurers. Our trend reports showing maintained or improving conditions can support arguments for favorable renewal terms in the Gulf Coast's challenging insurance market.

What is included in a preventative maintenance program?

Each program includes baseline documentation, scheduled monitoring flights (semi-annual or annual), trend analysis comparing conditions over time, SIRS-compatible reporting, and PE-certified condition summaries. We track every defect from first detection through remediation.

How does regular monitoring reduce long-term costs?

A $500 sealant repair caught early prevents $50,000 in water intrusion damage later. Our monitoring detects minor defects when remediation is inexpensive. The trend data also supports accurate capital planning and reserve budgeting.
