Why Choose 1Touch Plumbing for Roof Inspection in Townsville
✅QBCC Licensed Roof Plumbers: In Queensland, roof plumbing is a licensed trade, and if you ever need to make an insurance claim or sell your property, unlicensed work won’t hold up.
✅Local Team, Local Knowledge: Townsville’s cyclonic winds, monsoonal rain, salt air, and UV wear roofs down in ways that out-of-town operators simply don’t see coming. Our team lives and works here, and we inspect accordingly.
✅Honest Findings: We give you an accurate picture of your roof’s condition, not what gets us the most work. If your roof is in good shape, we’ll tell you that too.
✅Full Photo Documentation & Repair Records: Every inspection includes a photographic record of our findings and a detailed log of all required repairs, so your insurer has everything they need to process a claim without the back and forth.
✅Available 24/7: Roof issues don’t keep business hours. If something suddenly comes up after a storm or overnight, we’re available around the clock to help.
The Roof Inspection Process at 1Touch Plumbing:
- Get in Touch: Tell us what you need – a routine check, a pre-purchase inspection, or something you’ve noticed inside your home. We’ll lock in a time that works for you and show up when we say we will.
- Full Roof Inspection: We’ll inspect your roof from both outside and inside the roof cavity. Our team works through every flashing, ridge cap, valley, seal, penetration point, gutter, and downpipe systematically. For properties with water staining or damp patches, we use moisture detection equipment to trace where water is entering and how far it has tracked through the structure.
- On-Site Walkthrough: Once the inspection is complete, we walk you through everything we found while we’re still on site. We’ll explain which components need replacing, what needs resealing, where water is tracking, and what’s in good condition.
- Receive Your Report: Within 24 to 48 hours of your inspection, you’ll receive a written report documenting everything we found. It includes photographs, a full record of all required repairs, and our recommendations. The report is formatted to be used for your own records, submitted as part of an insurance claim, or included in a property transaction.
When to Get Your Roof Inspected
- Pre-wet season: If your roof hasn’t been inspected in a while, deteriorated flashings, cracked sealants, and blocked gutters could be building up to a failure. Getting it checked before November means you can fix issues on your schedule rather than dealing with an emergency mid-storm.
- Post-storm or cyclone: If you’ve just been through a cyclone or major storm and aren’t sure what damage was done, don’t wait for the next downpour to find out. We get into the roof cavity and across every part of the exterior to find damage that a ground-level check will miss.
- Pre-purchase: If you’re buying a property and want to know exactly what state the roof is in before you commit, we’ll give you a detailed, independent assessment so there are no expensive surprises after you sign.
- After previous repair work: If someone has worked on your roof and you’re not confident the job was done properly, we’ll inspect the repaired areas and tell you plainly whether the work holds up.
- Insurance claims: If you need to lodge an insurance claim for roof damage, we provide a full photo record and itemised repair log that gives your insurer everything they need to assess and process it.
Frequently Asked Questions About Roof Inspection
