Our comprehensive service includes everything you need to make an informed decision about your property.
We capture detailed imagery across all visible roof planes, even where pitch, height or landscaping makes ladder access unsafe. This helps identify broken tiles, lifted sheets, and surface deterioration before water finds a path inside.
Valleys and ridge capping are common leak points on Wantirna homes, particularly after wind-driven rain. The drone lets us inspect alignment, cracking, gaps and displaced bedding or pointing without stepping on brittle tiles.
We examine flashing condition and seals around roof penetrations where moisture often enters first. Close-up aerial angles help reveal lifting edges, corrosion, sealant failure and gaps that can be missed from the ground.
Where visible, we check for signs of gutter overflow risk, debris build-up, and staining that suggests water is backing up. This is especially important on two-storey homes where blocked gutters can push water under eaves or into fascia areas.
We document the roof covering type and visible condition, noting cracking, spalling, rust, loose fixings, and patch repairs. This supports decisions about targeted fixes versus broader maintenance.
Your report includes clear, labelled images showing issue locations and a priority-based summary. We translate what we see into actions—monitor, maintenance, or prompt repair—so you can plan costs and timeframes.

Yes. Two-storey tiled roofs can hide cracked tiles, displaced ridge capping and valley issues that are difficult to see from the ground and risky to access on foot. In Wantirna, leaf litter and wind-driven rain can worsen small gaps around ridges and flashings. A drone assessment provides clear photos of these areas so you can act early and avoid internal water damage.
We focus on visible roof surfaces and common failure points: tiles or sheets, ridges, hips, valleys, flashings, and penetrations like vents and skylights. Where visible, we also note gutter and drainage concerns. You receive a report with labelled images and practical recommendations so you know what needs repair, what needs maintenance, and what can be monitored.
Often, yes. Established gardens are common in Wantirna, and we plan flight paths to capture the best angles safely and legally. If trees or neighbouring structures limit visibility on one side, we’ll document what could and couldn’t be viewed and suggest options to improve coverage. Safety and compliance come first, and we won’t take unnecessary risks.
That junction is exactly where drones help. Extensions can create complex roof geometry and more flashings, which are frequent leak points if detailing has aged or moved over time. We use the drone to inspect step flashing, apron flashing, valleys and any visible transition points, then highlight defects with photos so you can address them before they affect ceilings or walls.
Yes. We prioritise findings based on visible risk, such as displaced materials, open gaps at flashings, or signs of water pathways. The report separates urgent items from maintenance and monitoring, and includes photos so you can discuss the scope with a roofer. If you’re buying, it also helps you quantify likely works for negotiations.
