Roof assessments across the Wairarapa.
Town homes, farmhouses and lifestyle-block sheds, we check the roof areas within sight and safe reach, and write up what we found, backed by a written assessment letter.
Town and country roofs, over the hill.
Over the Remutaka Hill, the Wairarapa is rural and spread out, with the towns of Masterton, Carterton, Greytown, Featherston and Martinborough and a lot of lifestyle blocks and farm buildings in between.
Roofs here tend to be larger, older, and more exposed to frost and big temperature swings than in town. A drone is often the quickest, safest way to cover a big rural roof, and we back it with a careful look at everything we can safely reach.
What we keep an eye on in the Wairarapa
Large rural roofs. Farmhouses, sheds and lifestyle-block buildings, where a drone covers a big roof area quickly and safely.
Older homesteads. Heritage and farmhouse roofs of considerable age that are well worth a careful look.
Long-run corrugate on farm buildings. Fastener rust, lap wear and wind damage on sheds and barns that haven't been looked at in years.
Building-report flags on character homes. Greytown, Martinborough and Featherston villas often get the "have a roofer look at it" line. We're the next step.
Frost and temperature extremes. The Wairarapa's colder nights and hot summers are hard on older coatings and seals.
Moss and lichen. Frosty mornings and shaded south faces keep roofs damp, and growth holds moisture against the coating.
We travel over the hill. We're Wellington-based and happy to come to the Wairarapa for the right job. Get in touch with the details.
Same clear scope, shed or homestead.
A big farm shed and an old homestead are different jobs, but the result is the same: a thorough look at the roof and a clear rundown of how it's faring.
What you're getting
Out here that might be a Greytown villa or a long-run steel roof on a lifestyle block, but the scope holds either way. We assess the visible and accessible roof areas as we find them on the day. This is not a full building report and not an engineering report. It is a visual, non-invasive inspection, so we don't lift coverings, open ceilings, or carry out moisture testing.
We're straight about what we can see from up top and what we can't. We don't give a guaranteed leak diagnosis, since pinning down a source takes further investigation. What you get is a written letter recording what we observed, with practical comments and next steps.
