Tenant leak reports and recurring water stains

A useful tenant report names the affected room, when water appeared, whether it is still entering and what happened during the rain. Keep dated indoor or ground-level photos if safe, together with previous repair records. A new drip and an unchanged old stain should be described separately.

We relate the observations to the accessible roof covering, junctions and drainage. A remote owner does not need to diagnose the problem before booking. The findings explain the areas inspected and any further access or investigation needed, rather than turn the tenant’s initial description into a predetermined repair.

Coordinate roof checks and owner approval

We inspect the accessible roof covering, junctions and drainage connected to the tenant’s report. We support two-storey properties and identify any areas that need further access or investigation.

We explain the findings and proposed component repairs so the owner or manager can review the work before it is instructed.

Discuss a similar concern at your property. Include your suburb and what you can observe safely; the assessment determines your own repair scope.

Rental property roof repair quotes & approvals

Property access, authorised scope and inspection limits

Property height, occupancy, access restrictions, weather and roof condition affect the visit and repair scope. Special-purpose engineering or compliance certification is outside this service.

Before arranging a visit, we explain any inspection or booking fee that applies. Repair pricing is confirmed after assessment and before work begins.

Agree the access contact and recipient of findings

For planned maintenance or a gap between tenancies, nominate who will arrange occupant access and who can approve the repair quote, including any owners corporation review. We agree any inspection photos and written findings before booking, including their recipient. Confirm the inspection purpose, accessible areas, any roof-space access and inspection fee. We submit the proposed repair scope and price for approval before work is instructed.

Use our inspection and repair quote checklist to prepare the details for your visit.

Working hours and urgent enquiries

Normal working hours: 9:00 am–9:00 pm, seven days a week. Outside these hours, an additional urgent-service fee applies. The fee is determined in the on-site quote. We confirm appointment timing and safe access separately.

Call Ellis on 0405878406 for an urgent enquiry, or read about emergency and urgent roof repairs.

What tenants can include in a roof leak report.

Details for an assessment and quote

  • The property suburb and address, the tenant’s observations and when the problem occurs.
  • The access contact, the owner or manager who can approve work, and who should receive the findings.
  • The number of storeys, known roof material and any earlier inspection or repair records.

Photos are optional. A written description or an indoor or ground-level photo is enough to start the enquiry.

Remote landlord & property manager repair questions

Can you arrange the visit if I live interstate?
