What to Expect From a Professional Roof Inspection in Brisbane

When was the last time someone really checked your roof?


For many Brisbane homeowners, roof issues start quietly — a slipped tile here, a bit of sagging there. But without a proper inspection, these small signs can quickly become costly problems.


A professional roof inspection isn’t just about identifying leaks. It’s about understanding the full health of your roof and catching issues early — before they require major repairs.


Here’s exactly what to expect when you book a roof inspection with JMZ.


Why Regular Roof Inspections Matter

Brisbane’s weather is unpredictable. Between storm season, intense heat, and coastal humidity, roofs take a beating. A small issue missed today could mean:

  • Interior water damage
  • Mould or mildew from roof lining moisture
  • Expensive repairs not covered by insurance


What We Look for During a Roof Inspection

When JMZ Roof Restorations inspects your roof, we assess:

  • Tile condition: Cracks, movement, or wear
  • Ridge caps: Loose or failing pointing/bedding
  • Roof lining: Moisture signs, sagging, insulation issues
  • Leaks or water damage: Inside and outside
  • Mould, moss, or lichen buildup
  • Rust or corrosion (for metal roofs)
  • Sealant breakdowns around vents or flashing


We also check guttering, drainage, and signs of poor previous workmanship.


How Long Does It Take?

A typical inspection takes around 30–60 minutes, depending on your roof size and condition. We’ll explain everything clearly, using photos if needed, so you’re never guessing.


Will You Try to Sell Me Something?

Absolutely not.


Our goal is to give you a clear picture of your roof’s condition. If no work is needed — we’ll say so. If repairs or restoration make sense, we’ll outline your options with a written quote.


“The most common feedback we hear? ‘I wish I’d done this sooner.’”


Common Issues We Find in Brisbane Roofs

  • Minor tile cracks that could lead to leaks
  • Moisture build-up in roof linings that damages insulation
  • Degraded pointing from years of heat and storms
  • Unseen water ingress from flashing or vent damage


These are all fixable — if caught early.


How Often Should You Get Your Roof Inspected?

  • Every 3–5 years if your roof is under 10 years old
  • Every 1–2 years if your roof is older or recently painted
  • Immediately after severe storms


JMZ offers inspections year-round across Brisbane and surrounds.
