Drone Roof Assessment – 2 Storey Property in Ashwood

Yes. In Ashwood, leaf litter can collect in valleys and gutters and cause overflow that looks like a roof leak. A drone assessment can spot debris build-up, overflow staining and likely blockage points at downpipe droppers on a 2 storey home. While it can’t confirm internal pipe blockages, it gives strong visual clues and shows where a clean-out or repair is most urgent.

A drone can capture detailed images of roof surfaces, ridge capping, valleys, flashings, penetrations, and visible gutter runs—especially the areas that are hard to view from the ground. We fly to angles that show junctions and water-shedding lines. Some sections may still be obscured by dense trees or roof geometry, and we’ll note any limitations clearly in your report.

Drone flights depend on safe conditions. Strong winds, heavy rain and poor visibility can affect image quality and flight safety, particularly around two-storey homes and trees. If conditions aren’t suitable, we’ll discuss options such as rescheduling or completing what’s feasible and returning for remaining images. The goal is accurate, stable footage rather than rushed results.

In many cases, yes. High-resolution images often show cracked corners, displaced tiles, and disturbed ridge capping on older tiled roofs. Terracotta and concrete tiles can also show signs of weathering and uneven lines that indicate movement. If we see patterns that suggest widespread issues (or fragile sections), we’ll recommend targeted hands-on confirmation by a qualified roofer.

You’ll receive photo evidence and written notes identifying observed defects, their likely impact, and suggested next actions. For maintenance, it helps you prioritise cleaning, repairs and monitoring points. For pre-purchase, it provides documented roof condition at the time of inspection. If we identify areas that need closer inspection from inside the roof space or by a trade, we’ll flag that clearly.
