FAQs for Aaron's Hill
Will you come out to Aaron's Hill?
Yes, smaller places are covered as well as towns. Our area covers London and South East England. Just mention lanes, gates or anything else about the route as you book.
Does a conservation area affect roof work in Aaron's Hill?
Check Historic England’s online list first, then ask the council about conservation areas and any Article 4 direction. The answer matters most when a change of material is on the cards.
Do you use drones?
Yes, where it’s applicable. Flights depend on the weather on the day and airspace rules, including flight restriction zones near airports. We’re a CAA-registered drone operator.
Is my roof suitable for ELD?
That depends on the roof’s membrane and layers. Share any details you have and we will confirm suitability.
Are you insured?
Every survey is covered by professional indemnity and public liability insurance, and we can provide details if a managing agent needs them.
Can you find leaks on a covered flat roof?
On some roofs, yes. Covered roofs limit the methods we can use so we look at the roof first.
Which days do you carry out surveys?
We carry out surveys seven days a week. To find a day that suits you, call 07833 053749 or send us an email.
Electronic leak detection in Aaron's Hill
There are different ELD methods. Low-voltage methods normally need a wet roof surface and high-voltage methods need the membrane dry and exposed. Which one suits depends on the membrane and the layers of the roof and we explain which we’ll use. If neither method suits your roof, we will tell you before any testing starts. If you’ve noticed new membranes needing a check before handover and stains far from any visible defect, a survey will tell you what’s going on, whatever the roof.
Around Aaron's Hill, many homes have a garden room, garage or outbuilding with a flat roof. They’re easy to forget, but water through a garage roof can spoil whatever is stored inside. It’s worth mentioning them when booking, so the visit can include them. Smaller roofs use the same coverings as bigger ones, from felt to rubber and GRP, and age in the same way.
Pictures do a lot of the work in our reports, so you can see each defect rather than just read about it. Anything out of sight on the day is listed as such.

Electronic leak detection around Aaron's Hill
Many older homes in Surrey have handmade clay tiles and tile-hung upper walls. A few of Surrey’s oldest buildings have heavy Horsham stone slab roofs. Mixed in with those pitched roofs are a good many flat ones, over rear extensions, dormers, garages and shops. About 2.5 miles north-east lies Loseley Park, a reminder of how long the area around Aaron's Hill has been built on. Period homes nearby can have lead valleys, tall chimneys and a patchwork of past repairs, and any change of roofing material on a listed home needs checking with the council first.
Landlords with a home close to Godalming station may find that the flat roof over a let home is worth a look before it becomes a tenant complaint. If you look after a building such as St Mark and All Saints Church of England Primary, large flat roofs, common on schools and other public buildings, need their outlets, upstands and coverings checked regularly. For an older house near a landmark such as St Mark's Church and Community Centre, the joins between later flat roofs and the old walls are where problems typically start.

Different roofs, different checks
Single-ply membranes
Punctures from foot traffic and equipment are common on single-ply roofs. Testing helps find them.
EPDM rubber roofs
Some EPDM membranes conduct electricity which can limit electronic testing. We will tell you if yours is not suitable.
Tips from our surveys
Over many surveys, some simple habits stand out:
- Act on new leaks promptly
- Use boards when working on the roof
- Keep foot traffic on flat roofs to a minimum
- Have roof specifications to hand
If we think the leak isn’t coming through the membrane, the report says so, so other causes can be checked.
Ask trades working on the roof to protect the membrane when fitting equipment. Check the roof after they’ve finished.

The survey, step by step
Time on site depends on the size and shape of the roof, but as a rough guide the survey takes a length of time set by the size of the roof and how it’s built, which we set out in the quote. You’re welcome to ask questions while we are there. With a bit of garden around a house, as there often is around Aaron's Hill, the roof can be viewed from several angles. Mention any side of the property we can’t get to. The loft, where there’s safe access, completes the picture.

Advice
Leave it or get it looked at?
Some breaches are too small to see. ELD picks up breaches a visual check might miss where the roof suits it. Blocked gutters on homes around Aaron's Hill overflow and soak walls, especially where trees overhang. It’s easy to sort the cause early and slow to dry a damp wall.
