Our comprehensive service includes everything you need to make an informed decision about your property.
We photograph and review the main roof planes and hard-to-see sections that are unsafe to view from ladders on tall properties. This helps identify slipped, cracked or chipped tiles/roofing, surface deterioration and areas that warrant closer follow-up.
We examine ridge capping lines for gaps, cracked mortar/pointing and displaced caps. These faults are common entry points for wind-driven rain and can also contribute to tile movement over time.
We inspect valleys, box gutters (where visible) and roof junctions where water concentrates. We look for debris build-up, corrosion, misaligned tiles, and staining patterns that can indicate overflow or water tracking beneath the roof covering.
We check flashings around chimneys (if present), skylights, vents and other penetrations for lifting edges, splits, poor laps or sealant failure. Penetrations are frequent leak sources on multi-level Templestowe roof designs.
We visually assess gutter runs for sagging, overflow staining and heavy leaf accumulation, and we check downpipe entry areas where blockages often start. This matters in Templestowe’s leafy streets, where debris can quickly back up stormwater.
You receive annotated images showing what was observed and where, plus clear notes on severity and recommended next steps. The goal is to help you decide what to repair now, what to monitor, and what to have further investigated.

Yes. Many Templestowe two-storey properties have multiple roof lines, valleys and shaded sections from established trees. Those areas can hide cracked tiles, blocked valleys and deteriorating pointing that are hard to see from the ground. A drone assessment captures detailed roof imagery safely and helps you prioritise repairs or further investigation before leaks cause internal damage.
We focus on roof surfaces, ridge capping and pointing, valleys and junctions, flashings around penetrations (vents, skylights where present), and visible gutter lines and drainage entry points. We also look for signs consistent with water overflow, debris build-up and material deterioration. The report includes photos and notes so you can understand what needs attention and why.
Often yes, but flight conditions and local restrictions can apply depending on proximity to sensitive areas and other airspace considerations. We’ll confirm what’s possible for your Templestowe address before attending. If there are limitations, we’ll explain what can be captured safely and what alternative options may be needed to confirm any areas we can’t view.
Leaf debris can block gutters and valleys, leading to overflow and water tracking under tiles. Shaded roof sections can hold moisture longer, encouraging moss and grime that can disguise cracks or lift edges. On sloping blocks, stormwater flow can be heavy during downpours, so valley lines, junctions and downpipe entry points become critical areas to check closely.
Most on-site drone capture is completed within a short visit, depending on roof complexity and weather. You’ll receive a professional report with photo evidence highlighting observed issues, their likely implications, and recommended next steps. If weather (wind/rain) limits visibility, we’ll advise whether a return visit or another method is needed for full confirmation.
