Electronic leak detection for homes and businesses in Crookham Village
Electronic leak detection, or ELD, finds holes in flat roof waterproofing membranes. It works with an electrical current which can only get through the membrane at a breach. That lets us locate holes that are too small to see so your roofer knows exactly where to repair. The results come in a report with photos. We survey green roofs, roof terraces and balconies and commercial flat roofs, and common reasons people get in touch are breaches around outlets and penetrations and leaking laps in the waterproofing.
Somewhere as small as Crookham Village, flat roofs tend to be on extensions, garages and converted outbuildings. The checks are the same as anywhere: outlets, upstands, edges and the covering itself. The journey and access are planned beforehand. If there are outbuildings or garages with flat roofs, mention them when booking.
Nothing in the report is left vague: if work is needed, the report says so clearly, along with how urgent it is.

Local flat roofs in Crookham Village
Farnham Castle, about 4.5 miles south-east, is one of the historic houses in the wider area around Crookham Village. On older houses around here, roofs frequently carry the marks of earlier repairs, from replaced slates to new lead. A number of Hampshire villages keep thatched roofs on their older buildings. Older houses in the South East frequently have slate or clay tile roofs, while many later estates have concrete tiles. Next to the main roofs there is normally a flat roof somewhere, whether on an extension, a garage or a commercial unit.
If you run a business near Hart Shopping Centre, flat roofs over shops and units are easy to forget until water comes through a ceiling. If you live in an older home near All Saints' Church, any flat roof added at the back or on a dormer is likely to be far younger, and less durable, than the main roof.

Common roof problems in Crookham Village
When the membrane is buried, holes cannot be seen at all. Electronic methods can help on some of these roofs though it depends on the layers.
Look out for signs like these:
- Leaks through a covered membrane
- Holes left by work on the roof
- Waterproofing to test before it is covered
- Leaks that return after repairs
If you look after a building such as All Saints Church of England Aided Junior School, schools and public buildings often have big flat roofs, and their outlets and upstands need regular checks.
Questions to ask before you book
- Whether you can ask questions once you have the report
- Their drone registration, if they fly one
- What insurance they carry
- Whether the inside of the roof is included
How it works
The visit typically starts outside and finishes in the loft: outside views come first, then the loft space if there is safe access. All told, expect more time on a big roof than a small one, with the construction of the roof playing a part too. Somewhere like Crookham Village needs a little journey planning: let us know about narrow lanes, gates, long drives and where we can park. The roof is looked at from the ground, from windows, from the loft where there is safe access and from the roof where it is safe.
- We start by finding out what the roof is made of and where it leaks.
- The roof is assessed to see if electronic testing will work on it.
- The method depends on the membrane and what sits above and below it.
- We test the membrane and find where current is passing through it.
- You get a report showing where each breach is, for your roofer to repair.
Getting ready for the survey
- Jot down any questions you want answered
- Keep pets in another room
- Point out any leaks or damp patches

Common questions in Crookham Village
Do you cover Crookham Village?
We do. Every survey there gets the same written report with photographs.
Will you come out to Crookham Village?
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 when booking.
Do you test for asbestos?
No. Asbestos surveys and sampling aren’t something we do. The report may flag materials that could contain asbestos on buildings built or refurbished before 2000, with a recommendation to have a specialist asbestos surveyor check before it is disturbed.
How many surveys have you done?
We’ve completed more than 5,000 surveys, over more than 20 years, with 98% customer satisfaction.
Which days do you carry out surveys?
We survey seven days a week: weekdays, Saturdays and Sundays. Just tell us the days that suit you.
Is it the same as a RICS Level 2 or Level 3 survey?
No. We check the roof, not the whole building, so it’s not a RICS Level 2 or Level 3 survey. Many buyers have both.
Can you survey a shared roof?
Yes. A shared roof needs access agreed first, with the freeholder or managing agent. Mention it when you contact us and we’ll explain what’s needed.
Why it’s worth a survey now in Crookham Village
Leaks left running can wet the insulation and deck. Finding the breach sooner limits that. Outbuildings and barns around Crookham Village are easy to forget, but a failed roof there can spoil what’s stored inside. A quick look before winter can save a lot.
The cost of a survey depends on the roof: how big it is, how high it is, the number of separate roofs and how safely it can be seen. Electronic leak detection is quoted for your roof, because the method depends on the roof.
