Brunswick’s mix of older terraces and modern two-storey extensions often means complex rooflines, shared boundaries and hard-to-reach valleys—drone imaging checks these areas without ladders over tight laneways.

Our comprehensive service includes everything you need to make an informed decision about your property.
We capture clear aerial photos across the main roof planes to identify cracked, slipped or deteriorated tiles/roof sheets and early signs of surface wear that can lead to leaks in a two-storey home.
We inspect ridge lines for gaps, displaced capping and failing mortar/pointing. These areas are exposed to wind and weather and are a common entry point for water on older Brunswick roofs.
We focus on valleys and internal drainage paths where debris collects. Blocked or corroded sections can cause overflow into eaves and internal ceilings, especially after heavy downpours.
We assess flashing integrity at penetrations and junctions, including where original roofs meet extensions. Failed flashing is a frequent cause of stubborn leaks that are hard to trace from inside.
We scan the roof edge for gutter alignment issues, sagging sections, and overflow staining that suggests blockages. This matters on two-storey properties where water can track behind gutters and damage timber.
You receive a report with marked-up images showing locations of defects and risk areas, plus practical recommendations so you can brief a roofer accurately and avoid unnecessary exploratory work.

Yes. Brunswick homes often have older front roof sections with newer two-storey additions at the rear, creating junctions and valleys where leaks start. A drone assessment documents those transition points, ridge lines and hard-to-see rear sections without needing tricky ladder access or disturbing neighbouring boundaries. You’ll receive images that clearly show condition and any areas that warrant targeted repair.
A drone assessment can highlight cracked or slipped tiles/sheets, deteriorated ridge capping, rust or separation at flashing, debris build-up in valleys, and signs of overflow along gutter lines. It’s especially effective for steep pitches and complex roof shapes where ground viewing misses details. If something needs close physical testing, we’ll note that and recommend the next step.
Often, yes. Tight Brunswick blocks, fences and limited side setbacks are common, and drones are well suited to capturing roof areas without needing to move through narrow passages. We still need a safe take-off/landing area and suitable conditions on the day. If local constraints affect what can be captured, we’ll explain the limitations and provide options.
They can. Many Brunswick streets have mature trees that drop leaves and small branches, which can block valleys and gutters. On two-storey homes, this can lead to overflow that wets fascia boards and eaves and can mimic a roof leak. A drone assessment helps identify debris build-up, water staining patterns and drainage pinch points so maintenance can be targeted to the right areas.
In most cases, yes. Older Brunswick properties can have chimneys, parapets and older flashing details that are vulnerable to cracking and separation over time. Drone imaging allows us to check these features from multiple angles and document defects clearly. If the issue appears subtle or requires hands-on confirmation, we’ll flag it and suggest a roofer or further inspection where appropriate.
