Electronic leak detection in Anmore, Hampshire
A careful look at the flat roof membrane at your property in Anmore, with photographs and a written report.
- Repairs that haven’t stopped the leak
- Leaks at pipes, outlets or fixings
- Gaps at membrane joints
What happens if roof problems are left?
Some flat roof leaks come from walls or details. ELD helps rule the membrane in or out, so other causes can be checked. Matching old materials, such as handmade tiles or stone slates, can take time to source. That is one more reason to find defects before they become urgent.
Every price we give includes VAT. We quote electronic leak detection for each roof, as the method and time depend on the roof. We confirm the price for your roof before booking.
Why choose Independent Roof Survey in Anmore
- Thermal imaging and drone inspection where they help

How electronic leak detection works in Anmore
Electronic leak detection works on many flat roof membranes, on homes, blocks and commercial buildings. It can be used to trace an existing leak or check a new membrane before handover. We quote for each roof based on its size and build-up. Testing can be carried out on weekdays, Saturdays or Sundays when conditions allow. Just ask about your roof. We are often asked to look into leaks at pipes, outlets or fixings and leaks that return after repairs, on roof terraces and balconies, liquid-applied waterproofing and commercial flat roofs.
In a village or hamlet like Anmore, flat roofs are typically on extensions, garages, outbuildings or barn conversions. The checks are the same as anywhere: the covering, the edges, the upstands and where water drains away. We simply plan the journey and access beforehand. Garages and outbuildings are easy to forget, so mention any you want included when you book.
It is not only a list of defects. For each finding, it explains what it is, why it matters and what we’d recommend.

Flat roofs in Anmore
Anmore is within about 4 miles of the coast, and places near the sea get more salt in the air and more wind than inland. Coastal wind works at the edges of flat roofs, and salt air wears metal trims and fixings. England has around 10,000 conservation areas and about 500,000 listed buildings. If your home is listed, changes that affect its special interest need listed building consent, and in a conservation area re-roofing in different materials may need permission, so check with the council.
If you let a flat or house near Bedhampton station, the flat roof over a let home is worth a look before it becomes a tenant complaint.

Anmore questions
Do you cover smaller places like Anmore?
Yes, Anmore is covered. We cover the whole of London and South East England, from towns to the smallest villages. The journey is planned ahead, so it helps to know about access.
Is the coastal weather around Anmore hard on roofs?
Near the coast, roofs face more wind and more salt than further inland. Salt is hard on nails, clips and metal flashings, while strong wind lifts anything already loose.
How experienced are you?
More than 5,000 surveys over 20+ years.
How long does electronic leak detection take?
It usually takes more time on a big roof than a small one, with the construction of the roof playing a part too.
Do I have to be there for the survey?
Not necessarily. If we only need the outside, we can agree that ahead of time, but anything inside needs someone there to give access.
Does the report include photographs?
Yes. Photographs are part of every report.
Do you climb onto every roof?
Only when it is safe. Most of what we need can be seen from safe viewpoints, the loft and, where it applies, a drone, and anything out of sight is recorded in the report.

What affects the cost of electronic leak detection
We confirm the price for the job before you book. This is what makes a difference:
- The shape of the roof and its details
- The roof’s overall size
- Height and safe access
- House, block, shop or office
For a price for your roof in Anmore, call 07833 053749 or email us and tell us about the roof. We will confirm the figure before booking.
What to tell us when you get in touch
These details help when you contact us:
- How the loft is reached, if there is one
- The style of property, from a terrace to a block
- Any marks or damp showing indoors
- Any deadline, such as an exchange date
We confirm the exact price before you book, so you know the cost up front. Electronic leak detection is quoted for your roof, because the method depends on the roof. To book, call 07833 053749 or drop us an email.
What we do, step by step
Every roof is different, but as a rough guide the survey takes longer on a large roof than a small one, and the build-up of the roof makes a difference too. If you have questions on the day, just ask. For a village or hamlet like Anmore, the journey is planned beforehand: let us know about lanes, gates and parking. The roof is looked at from the ground, from windows, from the loft where there’s safe access and from the roof where it is safe.
- We start with what you know about the roof and the leak.
- We check whether the membrane and build-up suit ELD.
- The test method is chosen to suit the roof.
- The membrane is tested and breaches are found.
- A report with photos shows where each breach is.
Before the survey
- Have any paperwork from past roof work to hand
- Clear the way to the loft hatch
- Have any questions written down, so nothing gets missed
Booking a survey
A quick phone call is usually the easiest start: phone 07833 053749 or drop us an email. You’ll have a price before anything is arranged.
Advice
Tips from our surveys
A little preparation and a few simple habits help, both for the survey and for the roof itself. Some pointers:
- Get leaks traced quickly
- Keep a note of leaks after rain
- Keep outlets clear of debris
- Check new waterproofing before handover
You receive a report showing where each breach was found, with photos. Pass it to your roofer to repair the breach points.
Consider testing a new membrane before it’s covered. It’s easier to find holes before more layers are added.
What electronic leak detection does not cover
This isn’t a RICS building survey, a structural engineer’s report or an asbestos survey. It also has these limits:
- Leaks from walls, copings or rooflights
- Fixing the holes we find
- Sections we cannot safely access
If in doubt, phone 07833 053749 or drop us an email and we’ll point you to the right survey. What a survey covers and does not.
What this survey covers
- Liquid-applied waterproofing
- Flat roof membranes
- Green roofs
- Roof terraces and balconies
- Commercial flat roofs
- Single-ply roofs
Common roof problems in Anmore
Flat roof membranes can be punctured by foot traffic, dropped tools or debris. Many are tiny but water still finds them.
People usually book a survey after spotting one of these:
- Punctures from foot traffic or tools
- Water coming in under a flat roof
- Holes around roof penetrations
- Leaks under green or ballasted roofs
Anyone responsible for a site like Denmead Infant School will know that a large flat roof with lots of outlets and rooflights has many places where a membrane can fail.
What to check before booking
- Is there a chance to talk the report through?
