Drone Roof Assessment – 2 Storey Property in Murrumbeena

Yes. Many Murrumbeena blocks have limited side clearance, high fences, and rear extensions that block sightlines from the street. A drone can capture close-up images of the rear roof planes, valleys, and gutters without needing ladders positioned over neighbouring property. It’s a practical way to confirm roof condition on a 2 storey home before organising any major repair work.

You’ll receive a summary of observed roof issues and clear supporting photos from the drone flight. We highlight key risk points such as ridge capping, valleys, flashings, penetrations, guttering and downpipe entry areas. The report focuses on what the images show, why it matters, and the next steps to consider, including when to engage a qualified roofer for repairs.

A drone assessment is a visual inspection of accessible external roof elements, so it can’t directly see under tiles, sarking, insulation or internal timber. What it can do is identify common leak entry points—cracked tiles, lifted flashings, rusted valleys, separated capping, and blocked gutters—that often cause water ingress. If we see indicators of moisture risk, we’ll recommend targeted follow-up checks.

They often do. Older tiled roofs can show cracked or slipped tiles, deteriorated ridge capping mortar, and wear around valleys and penetrations. Newer metal roofs are more likely to present issues such as loose fasteners, lifting flashings, and overflow risks around box gutters and junctions. The drone lets us document these roof-specific problem areas on your 2 storey property without relying on guesswork from ground level.

Strong winds, heavy rain and poor visibility can affect flight safety and image quality. We also need a suitable take-off/landing area and to follow all applicable safety and operational requirements. If conditions aren’t suitable, we’ll discuss rescheduling so the inspection can be completed properly and the photos are sharp enough to support reliable findings and recommendations.
