Officer’s newer two-storey estates often have complex roof lines, tight side access and fast-gutter-blocking debris after windy rain—drone checks spot issues without climbing on fragile tiles.

Our comprehensive service includes everything you need to make an informed decision about your property.
We inspect ridge lines for cracking, gaps, displaced caps and degraded mortar/pointing. These are common leak entry points on tiled roofs and are easy to miss from ground level on two-storey homes.
The drone targets valleys and box-gutter sections where leaves, silt and building grit collect. Blockages can cause water to back up under tiles or overflow into eaves, so we document build-up and signs of overflow paths.
We capture close-up imagery of flashing edges, sealant condition and junctions around penetrations. Small separations or deteriorated seals can create persistent leaks that are hard to locate once water tracks through insulation.
We look for cracked, slipped or chipped tiles, and for metal roof issues such as loose fixings and lifted laps at edges. On two-storey properties, these faults often go unnoticed until ceiling marks appear.
We check gutter alignment, visible corrosion, sagging sections, and how water is likely to enter downpipes. Poor fall or blocked entry points can cause overflow that damages fascia boards and can impact internal walls.
We focus on roof edges, barge caps and areas most exposed to wind uplift. The report notes signs consistent with recent wind events, including displaced caps, lifted edges, and debris impact points.

Find answers to the most frequently asked questions about our inspection service.
A drone assessment is ideal for spotting visible defects on elevated and hard-to-reach sections: cracked or slipped tiles, lifted ridge caps, deteriorated pointing, valley debris build-up, flashing gaps around vents or skylights, and gutter issues like sagging or overflow risk. For many Officer two-storey roofs, these are the most common sources of water entry after wind and heavy rain.
You don’t always need to be home, but we do need safe access to the yard and clear take-off/landing space. For many Officer properties with narrow side access, we plan the flight path from the driveway or rear yard and keep the drone clear of trees and structures. We’ll confirm any gate codes and identify pets, power lines and nearby activity before flying.
Yes. We focus on the roof surfaces and junctions around solar panels, including edges where debris can collect and where water can be redirected. The drone captures imagery of panel-adjacent tiles/sheets, mounting zones that are visible, and nearby flashings. While we don’t test the electrical system, we can flag roof issues that may affect the area beneath or around the array.
Even on newer builds in Officer, early roof issues can occur from wind uplift, minor installation defects, settlement movement, or debris loading in valleys and gutters as landscaping matures. Two-storey roofs can hide small faults for longer because leaks travel before they show inside. A drone assessment helps confirm whether the roof is performing as expected and highlights maintenance needs before they escalate.
Yes. Strong wind, rain and low visibility can limit flight time or image quality, and safety comes first. If conditions aren’t suitable, we’ll reschedule for a clearer window to ensure accurate results. After a storm, we can still perform an assessment once it’s safe, which is often the best time to document displaced tiles, ridge movement or gutter overflow indicators.
