What Our Roof Inspection Reports Cover
Every inspection and report includes a detailed assessment of visible roof components and associated building elements. Our roof inspections assess:
Each roof report includes photos, clear findings, and practical recommendations. Reports include moisture testing where required to identify active leaks and hidden moisture issues.
Roof Types in Auckland and How Each One Fails
Most roof defects we find are predictable from the covering material and its age. Here is what to expect from each type, and how much of it we can actually reach.
| Material | Typical life | Main failure mode | Access |
|---|---|---|---|
| Long-run steel | 40+ years with coating intact | Screw washers perishing; surface rust at laps and penetrations | Walkable with care |
| Concrete or terracotta tile | 50+ years | Cracked or slipped tiles, failed underlay, blocked valleys | Fragile, needs care |
| Membrane (TPO / EPDM) | 15–25 years | Seam failure, ponding, UV degradation | Walkable |
| Butynol | 10–20 years | Shrinkage at upstands, tears, failed terminations | Walkable |
| Shingle / asphalt | 15–25 years | Granule loss, lifted or missing shingles | Limited |
| Metal tile | 30–50 years | Coating failure, fastener corrosion | Walkable with care |
What the inspection covers, and what it doesn't
We assess the covering, flashings, valleys, penetrations, gutters and downpipes, and the roof structure where it is visible from the ceiling space. We do not lift roofing, cut into the building envelope, or carry out a water test to prove a leak.
When you need a roofer instead
A roof inspection reports condition and defects. It does not repair, re-roof, or produce a producer statement. If the covering is at end of life, the next step is a roofer's quote — and we will tell you that plainly rather than leave you guessing.
