Sorrento sits high on the coastal ridge with the ocean straight in front of it, and the wind up there never really stops. FreshDuct services the air systems that have to work in it.
Two-storey home with rooftop cooling? Wind exposure up there is harder on it than the sun is.
Sorrento is built on the rise behind the beach, and that elevation is the whole story of the suburb. The streets step up from the coast so that a great many homes look west over open water, and the housing reflects the era it went up in: split-level and two-storey designs, generous windows facing the view, and roofs that sit high and completely unprotected above the surrounding land.
Height changes the physics of the job. Wind arriving off the Indian Ocean hits a ridge-top roof with far more sustained force than it does a sheltered inland street, and it is carrying salt the entire time. Rooftop evaporative units and their mounting frames take that loading continuously; fixings loosen, flashings around roof penetrations work free, and a unit that has shifted even slightly on its frame starts letting water past into the ceiling space. Meanwhile that west-facing glazing puts real afternoon cooling demand on systems whose ductwork is often original to the house and running through two storeys.
FreshDuct approaches Sorrento homes from the roof down. We inspect rooftop units, their mounts and their penetrations as seriously as the ductwork, clean and check outdoor coils for salt fouling, camera multi-storey duct runs to find where airflow is being lost between levels, and deep-clean split-system coils and drain trays. Everything is photographed, roof included.
The things we look at first in a Sorrento home — based on the local housing, climate and systems people actually run.
An elevated, west-facing roof puts sustained wind onto rooftop plant and its frame. Fixings and flashings loosen over time, and a unit that has shifted is a ceiling leak waiting to be discovered.
With open water to the west and nothing between, salt reaches these roofs constantly. Coils, casings and metalwork corrode at a rate that sheltered suburbs never see.
Split-level and two-storey homes carry long vertical and horizontal runs. Balancing between floors is commonly poor, and the upper level suffers first when a run degrades or a join lets go.

In Sorrento the roof is where the problems begin. Wind and salt work on rooftop units, mounts and penetrations year round, and by the time the symptom appears indoors it is often a water stain rather than a comfort complaint.
We inspect the rooftop assembly properly and photograph it, because it is the part of the system that takes the most punishment and gets looked at the least.
FreshDuct services Sorrento 7 days a week — the ridge streets above the beach, the homes running down towards Marmion, and the blocks back towards Duncraig.
We work the northern coast constantly, with Hillarys immediately north and Scarborough down the coast, so a Sorrento booking usually joins work we already have in the area.

It is more often the roof penetration or the flashing around it than the unit itself. Sustained wind on an elevated roof works fixings and flashings loose over time, and water then tracks in alongside the drop duct. We check the unit, the frame and the penetration together, because treating one without the others rarely holds.
In a two-storey home the upper level is the first to suffer when ductwork degrades, because it sits at the end of the longest runs. Common causes are a collapsed or disconnected section, poor balancing between floors, or west-facing glazing simply overwhelming the capacity delivered upstairs. A camera inspection separates them.
