Roofline and Roof Inspections
Professional Roofline and Roof Inspections to Spot Problems Before They Cost You
At DB Roofing and Building Maintenance, we provide detailed roofline and roof inspections across Whitley Bay and the surrounding North East. Whether you’ve spotted signs of damage, just moved into a new home, or want peace of mind before winter, our expert inspections help identify issues early — so you can prevent leaks, damp and costly repairs. All inspections are carried out by David, the owner, with over 20 years of hands-on roofing experience.
Why You Should Book a Roof Inspection
Roof and roofline problems aren’t always visible from the ground. Leaks, cracked tiles, sagging gutters or rotting fascia boards can go unnoticed until significant damage occurs. That’s why a professional inspection is the best way to keep your roof in good shape and protect your property.
We offer honest, no-pressure assessments of your roofline, tiles, gutters, chimney, leadwork and overall roof condition — providing you with clear advice and optional repair quotes where needed.
Our Roofline and Roof Inspection Services Include:
- Full roof and roofline condition report
- Visual check of slates, tiles, and ridge line for movement or damage
- Guttering and downpipe condition and alignment
- Fascia and soffit checks for rot, cracks, or warping
- Flashing and leadwork inspection
- Chimney stack and pointing review
- Signs of damp, water ingress or internal staining
- Flat roof surface checks (if applicable)
- Roof ventilation review (eaves and ridge flow)
- Drone roof surveys available (for difficult access areas)
You’ll get honest feedback, photos where needed, and clear next steps — whether it’s a small fix or just advice on future maintenance.
