Guys Hill’s exposed, semi-rural blocks cop stronger wind and leaf load, and many two-storey homes have steep pitches and valleys that hide leaks—drone footage lets us inspect those risky areas without climbing.

Our comprehensive service includes everything you need to make an informed decision about your property.
We capture close imagery across the entire roof plane to identify slipped or cracked tiles, displaced metal sheets, and visible openings that can let wind-driven rain in—especially around upper-storey transitions.
We inspect ridge and hip lines for failed mortar/pointing, movement, and separation. These areas take the brunt of wind in Guys Hill and are a common starting point for water entry.
Drone angles let us see into valleys, roof-to-wall junctions and changes of pitch where debris builds up. We look for rusting, cracking, misalignment and signs of water tracking that indicate overflow or under-flashing leaks.
We check flashing lines and seals around penetrations for lifting, deterioration or poor laps. Small flashing faults can cause big internal damage on a two-storey home because water travels before it shows indoors.
Where visible, we assess gutter alignment, sagging sections, debris accumulation and overflow points. This helps explain staining or dampness at upper eaves and reduces the risk of water backing into fascia and roof timbers.
Your report includes clear images and descriptions that link each issue to a roof area (for example, rear valley or north-facing ridge). It’s designed to be useful for quotes and prioritising repairs.

We fly a high-resolution drone to view the roof surface, ridge capping and hips, valleys, flashings, and visible gutter lines. The goal is to identify defects like slipped or cracked tiles, lifted flashing, debris build-up in valleys, and movement along ridges that can lead to leaks. You’ll receive a report with photos and clear notes on what needs attention and why.
A drone roof assessment is ideal for evaluating roof condition on a two-storey home where access is difficult or unsafe. It provides strong visual evidence of roof defects and maintenance issues. If you’re purchasing, it’s often best paired with a broader building inspection so internal signs (like moisture, ceiling staining, or framing issues) can be checked alongside the roof findings.
Yes. Drone imagery is well suited to finding wind-related issues such as lifted ridge capping, displaced tiles, shifted metal sheets, and disturbed flashings at edges and penetrations. We also look for debris-driven problems like blocked valleys and overflow pathways. If we suspect recent damage, we’ll highlight the areas to prioritise and what further checks may be warranted.
They do. Many Guys Hill homes sit near established trees, which increases the chance of leaf build-up in valleys and gutters. During the assessment, we pay extra attention to valley lines, roof junctions, and gutter edges for debris accumulation, overflow staining, and corrosion. Those issues can cause leaks that appear far from the blockage, especially in two-storey roof spaces.
We need safe access to the property and a clear area for take-off and landing, such as a driveway or open yard. If you can, point out any known leak locations or recent issues so we can target the right roof zones. Weather matters for image quality and safety, so if conditions are unsuitable we’ll discuss the best time to complete the assessment.
