Our comprehensive service includes everything you need to make an informed decision about your property.
We scan roof planes for cracked, slipped, or missing tiles; corrosion; loose fasteners; and sheet lap issues. On two-storey roofs, these small failures can be hard to spot from the ground but can drive persistent leaks into upper ceilings and wall cavities.
We capture close imagery along ridges and hips to identify deteriorated mortar, gaps, and movement. This matters on older Pascoe Vale South roofs where ageing pointing can open up in wind events, allowing water tracking under tiles.
We focus on the change-of-plane areas where two-storey sections meet lower roofs, extensions, or parapets. These junctions are common leak points, and drone photos help confirm whether flashing is lifted, split, or poorly terminated.
We inspect gutter runs for ponding, debris build-up, sagging, and rusted sections, including internal/box gutters where present. Blocked or overflowing gutters can push water back into eaves, fascia and upper-storey walls.
We examine skylights, vents, antenna mounts, solar panel edges (where installed), and plumbing penetrations for seal failures and flashing gaps. Penetrations are a common source of slow leaks that only show after prolonged rain.
Where chimneys or parapet walls exist, we capture images of capping, step flashing lines, and adjacent roof materials. These details often degrade unevenly and can cause water ingress that travels before it becomes visible indoors.

Find answers to the most frequently asked questions about our inspection service.
Many Pascoe Vale South homes have steep pitches, mixed rooflines from extensions, and limited side access that makes safe ladder placement difficult. A drone allows us to inspect ridges, valleys, gutters and penetrations closely without walking on fragile tiles or relying on scaffolding. You still receive photo evidence and clear notes, but with fewer access constraints on double-storey roofs.
Yes. Drone footage is effective for identifying debris build-up in gutters, valley lines and roof junctions, as well as signs of overflow such as staining along fascia edges or damp marks near eaves. In Pascoe Vale South, tree cover can increase the risk of blocked drainage points after wind. We document the affected areas and outline practical cleaning or maintenance steps.
Your report includes annotated roof photos, a summary of observed defects, and a priority list separating urgent issues from routine maintenance. We describe the likely cause of each defect (for example, cracked pointing, lifted flashing, or gutter ponding) and the area of the roof affected. The aim is to give you enough detail to obtain accurate repair quotes and plan works.
Often, yes. Older homes can show ageing ridge pointing, worn mortar bedding, and patched repairs where new penetrations were added over time. Where a two-storey addition meets an original roof, the junction flashing and valleys can be a recurring leak point if detailing is poor or debris accumulates. A drone assessment helps confirm condition at these transitions without invasive access.
It’s a strong option if you want clear visibility of roof condition on a two-storey home before committing to purchase. The images can reveal broken tiles, corrosion, compromised flashing, and gutter issues that may not be visible from the ground. If we identify higher-risk defects, you can factor likely repairs into negotiations or request further specialist investigation where needed.
