At ProBuilder, we pride ourselves on embracing modern technology to ensure our clients’ homes are not just maintained but preserved for the future. Your home is one of your most valuable assets, and we understand how crucial it is to identify and address potential problems before they escalate. That’s why we utilise advanced tools to uncover issues that might not be visible to the naked eye, ensuring thorough and efficient repairs.

Recently, we had the opportunity to put this technology to good use on a project involving a very high-set home. From the ground, it was clear that some rust had started to appear on the roof. However, to get a complete picture, we deployed our drone equipped with a high-resolution camera and magnifying capabilities. This allowed us to take a close look at the roof without needing to climb up or set up scaffolding, saving both time and reducing risk.

What we found was more concerning than the initial rust visible from below. The drone revealed multiple areas where rust had taken hold, compromising the roof’s integrity. Armed with this detailed information, we were able to plan the repair work thoroughly. This level of preparation is crucial—it means that once the project begins, we can work more efficiently, reducing both the overall cost and time required to complete the repairs.

The Importance of Choosing the Right Materials

Interestingly, the rust we discovered should never have occurred in the first place. The root cause? The wrong type of gutter was used in this seaside location, leading to accelerated corrosion due to the salty air. This highlights the importance of choosing the right materials for the environment—a detail that can make all the difference in the longevity of a home.
