Our comprehensive service includes everything you need to make an informed decision about your property.
We capture detailed images along ridges and hips to identify cracked mortar, missing pointing, displaced caps and early separation lines. These defects are common entry points for wind-driven rain, especially on high, exposed 2 storey rooflines.
We review the roof surface for slipped, cracked or broken tiles, lifted edges, punctures, and coating breakdown. The drone angle helps reveal patterns that suggest foot traffic damage, aging materials, or wind uplift.
We focus on junctions around chimneys, skylights, vent pipes, solar penetrations and wall abutments. These are frequent leak sources when flashings split, sealants fail, or fixings corrode in coastal air.
Where visible from above, we check box gutters, sumps and outlets for debris build-up, ponding signs and overflow risk. This matters on Beaumaris homes with modern flat or low-slope sections where drainage capacity is critical.
We inspect roof edges for deterioration, gaps at the perimeter, and signs that gutters or fascia may be pulling away. Edge failures often show first on 2 storey properties because wind exposure is higher.
You receive clear, labelled images showing the exact location of issues, plus practical next steps (monitor, maintain, or engage a roofer). This makes it easier to brief a trade and compare repair quotes accurately.

Yes. Properties closer to the bay are more exposed to salt-laden air and stronger winds, which can accelerate corrosion on metal valleys, flashings and fixings and loosen ridge capping over time. A drone assessment allows close visual checks of these high, exposed areas on a 2 storey roof, without relying on ladders. You’ll get photos and notes that help you decide what maintenance or repairs to prioritise.
We capture images across the roof surface and focus on the common failure points: ridges and hips, valleys, flashings, roof penetrations (vents, skylights, solar), roof edges, and visible gutter/box gutter sections where possible. The aim is to locate cracked or displaced tiles, lifted sheet edges, corrosion, and junction defects that can let water in. Findings are documented with annotated photos and practical recommendations.
A drone assessment is primarily an external, visual inspection. It can identify likely leak sources—like split flashings, cracked pointing, damaged tiles, or blocked drainage—but it won’t confirm moisture inside ceiling cavities on its own. If the imagery suggests a high risk, we’ll recommend the next step, such as a targeted internal inspection, moisture testing, or engaging a qualified roofer to investigate specific junctions and penetrations.
Often, yes. Many Beaumaris renovations and architect-designed builds include low-pitch areas, parapet edges, and box gutters. These designs can be more sensitive to debris build-up and drainage bottlenecks, which increases overflow risk during heavy rain. With a drone, we can visually check these sections from above, looking for ponding signs, debris accumulation and problem junctions where membranes and flashings meet walls and roof edges.
We consider safety and compliance factors such as weather (wind and rain), nearby obstacles (trees, powerlines), tight site access, and local airspace considerations. On the day, we’ll confirm conditions before take-off. If conditions aren’t suitable, we’ll discuss options such as rescheduling or alternative inspection methods. The goal is to capture stable, close-up imagery without compromising safety or quality.
