Our comprehensive service includes everything you need to make an informed decision about your property.
We capture close imagery to identify slipped, cracked or missing tiles, corrosion on metal roofing, and uneven laps that can drive leaks in wind and rain—especially on higher, steeper roof sections that are unsafe to walk.
We check ridge lines, hips and cappings for cracking, gaps, and loose sections that can allow water entry and cause movement. This is a common issue on older tiled roofs and often shows up first at high points you can’t see from the ground.
We look for debris build-up, sagging runs, rusting, split joints and overflow staining. In Jolimont, leaf litter can block valleys and gutters quickly, so verifying flow paths helps prevent water backing up under tiles or into eaves.
We inspect lead/metal flashings, apron flashings and step flashings where roof meets walls or parapets. These junctions fail quietly and can cause internal damp patches that get mistaken for plumbing issues.
We check around skylights, flues, vents, antenna mounts and solar-related penetrations for lifting, cracked seals, and poorly dressed flashings—common leak points that are difficult to confirm without a top-down view.
We assess fascia condition, gutter-to-eave alignment, and signs of persistent overflow along eave lines. This helps explain water marks on external walls and reduces the risk of timber deterioration in concealed eave areas.

Yes. Many Jolimont blocks have tight side passages, shared boundaries, and limited space for ladders or scaffold. A drone lets us inspect ridges, valleys, gutters and junctions from multiple angles without needing roof access. It’s ideal for confirming tile displacement, pointing cracks, blocked drainage lines and flashing gaps on higher sections that aren’t visible from the street.
We often see slipped or cracked terracotta tiles, deteriorated ridge pointing, and debris build-up in valleys and gutters. Flashing issues around wall junctions, skylights and flues are also common, particularly where older roofs have been altered for extensions. The drone imagery helps confirm whether issues are isolated or part of a broader maintenance problem.
We identify visible entry points and conditions that commonly cause leaks—such as open joints, lifted flashings, cracked pointing, damaged tiles, and overflow paths from blocked gutters. While a drone assessment can’t see inside the roof cavity, it provides strong external evidence and clear photos so you can target further investigation or repairs to the most likely locations.
They can. Leaf litter and seed pods can build up in gutters, valleys and behind chimneys, especially after windy weather. On a two-storey roof, you may not notice the build-up until water overflows into eaves or stains external walls. Our drone assessment checks the full drainage path and highlights areas where cleaning or repairs are needed.
Pricing starts from $75 for Jolimont. The service includes a drone flight to capture detailed roof imagery, a review of roof coverings and key risk points (ridges, valleys, gutters, flashings and penetrations), and a concise written summary with annotated photos. If we identify urgent hazards or significant defects, we’ll prioritise them so you know what to act on first.
