Our comprehensive service includes everything you need to make an informed decision about your property.
We review ridge lines for cracking, missing mortar/pointing and displaced caps—common leak starters on tiled roofs, especially where previous repairs have aged differently to the surrounding roof.
The drone captures valleys and roof intersections to check for debris build-up, corrosion, lifting edges and poor fall. These areas concentrate water and are frequent problem points on Bentleigh East homes with extensions or mixed roof sections.
We inspect flashing lines for gaps, warping and inadequate overlaps where roofs meet vertical walls. This matters on two-storey builds where wind-driven rain can be forced into minor openings.
We look for slipped, cracked or missing tiles, exposed underlay, and irregular sheet laps. For two-storey roofs, small defects can be hard to spot from ground level but can still cause staining, mould and ceiling damage.
Where visible, we assess gutter runs and downpipe entry points for overflow risks, ponding indicators and blockages. This is especially useful on modern two-storey homes with concealed or box-gutter sections.
We check around skylights, vents, antenna mounts and solar panel edges (if present) for disturbed tiles, loose fixings and flashing issues that can lead to slow, hard-to-trace leaks.

Find answers to the most frequently asked questions about our inspection service.
In Bentleigh East we often see issues at roof junctions—where original sections meet newer additions—plus cracked ridge pointing, slipped tiles and debris sitting in valleys. Two-storey designs can also hide box gutters and downpipe inlets that overflow when blocked. A drone roof assessment is designed to capture these areas clearly and document them with images for follow-up.
Yes. We can visually check panel edges, mounting points and surrounding tiles for disturbance, as well as look for shading or debris that can collect around the array. We don’t test electrical performance, but the drone images help identify physical issues like lifted flashing, cracked tiles or debris build-up that can lead to leaks around solar installations.
A drone roof assessment focuses on external roof condition, so it won’t confirm moisture inside ceilings or walls on its own. What it does well is identify likely entry points—broken tiles, failed pointing, compromised flashing, rusted sections and blocked drainage paths. If interior signs are present, we’ll recommend the most appropriate next inspection step.
Yes. Mixed-era roofs are common in Bentleigh East, and they often have different materials, profiles and drainage layouts. The drone lets us inspect transitions between the original roof and the addition, including step flashings, valleys and changes in pitch. We document each section separately so you can see where defects are concentrated and what may need targeted repair.
Strong winds, heavy rain or low visibility can reduce image quality and flight safety. If conditions aren’t suitable, we’ll discuss rescheduling to ensure the assessment is reliable. We also consider site constraints such as tight access, nearby obstacles and local activity. The goal is clear, useful imagery rather than rushed footage that misses key roof details.
