Roof Inspection FAQs

Answers to common questions about our roof inspection services

A roof inspection is a comprehensive assessment of your roof's condition, including external and internal components, drainage systems, flashing, vents, and structural elements. We use advanced technology including drones and thermal imaging for thorough evaluation.

Roof inspections are recommended before purchasing a property, during construction or renovation projects, after severe weather events such as storms or hail, as part of regular maintenance, to assess damage or leaks, during defect investigations, for building legal disputes, and for insurance damage claim assessments.

Our inspection covers external roof damage, internal roof inspection for water damage, drainage and gutter systems, flashing and sealants, chimneys and vents, skylights, roof penetrations, roof decking and support structure, eaves and overhangs, ventilation and insulation, and identification of missing or damaged tiles.

Yes, we use DJI Mavic 3 drones for hard-to-reach areas. Drone inspections eliminate the need for inspectors to climb on roofs, reducing the risk of injury while providing high-resolution imaging for precise issue identification.

Drone inspections offer improved safety by eliminating climbing risks, faster completion than traditional methods, high-resolution accuracy for precise issue identification, access to difficult areas like high or steep roofs, and no height limits for inspection capability.

We use cloud-based reporting software, thermal imaging cameras, moisture hygrometers, Termatrac T3i radar technology, digital inclinometers, and DJI Mavic 3 drones to ensure comprehensive and accurate assessments.

The duration depends on the size and complexity of the roof, but most inspections are completed within 1-3 hours. Drone inspections can often be completed faster than traditional methods.

Our inspections can identify missing or damaged tiles, cracks or holes, moss, algae and fungal growth, debris blocking gutters, visible seams requiring repair, degraded coatings or sealants, water damage, and structural issues.

Costs vary depending on the property size, roof type, and inspection requirements. Contact us for a tailored quote based on your specific needs.

We provide roof inspection services across NSW, Queensland, and Victoria. Contact us to confirm service availability in your specific area.

We recommend a professional roof inspection at least every two to three years, or immediately after severe weather events such as storms, hail, or heavy winds. Regular inspections help identify minor issues before they develop into costly repairs or leaks.

Yes, our thermal imaging cameras can detect moisture and temperature anomalies in the roof structure that indicate early-stage leaks before water damage becomes visible on ceilings or walls. Early detection prevents expensive interior damage.

Yes, we inspect all roof types including concrete tiles, terracotta tiles, Colorbond and metal sheeting, slate, asbestos cement, flat roofs, and green roofs. Each roof type has specific issues we are trained to identify.

A roof condition report is used for pre-purchase assessments, insurance claims, maintenance planning, strata reports, and to document damage after severe weather. It provides a professional record of the roof condition with photographs and recommendations.

Yes, our detailed roof inspection reports with photographic evidence provide the documentation needed to support insurance claims for storm, hail, or wind damage. The report clearly identifies what damage occurred and the recommended repairs.

Our inspectors follow strict safety protocols and assess whether it is safe to access the roof on foot. For roofs that are too steep, too high, or structurally compromised, we use drone technology to conduct a thorough inspection without walking on the surface.

Warning signs include water stains on ceilings or walls, missing or cracked tiles, sagging roof lines, blocked or overflowing gutters, moss or lichen growth, rusty metal sheeting, daylight visible through the roof space, and increased energy bills due to insulation issues.

Yes, gutters, downpipes, and the complete drainage system are included in our roof inspection. Blocked or damaged gutters are one of the most common causes of roof-related water damage and are assessed during every inspection.

Yes, our inspectors can identify suspected asbestos cement roofing materials during the inspection. If asbestos is suspected, we recommend specialist testing and provide guidance on safe management or removal in accordance with Australian regulations.

Our roof inspection reports are delivered within 24 hours of the inspection. The report includes high-resolution photographs from both ground level and drone footage, detailed findings, and prioritised recommendations for repairs or maintenance.
