Electronic leak detection in Haslemere
Our ELD report shows where each breach was found, with photos. It tells your roofer exactly where to repair rather than guessing. Repair costs are not part of the report, so your roofer prices the work. Testing again after repairs can confirm the breaches have been dealt with, where the roof still suits the method. Results come in a written report with photos. We survey flat roof membranes, commercial flat roofs and single-ply roofs, and the problems we are asked to look at most are new membranes needing a check before handover and leaks through a covered membrane.
Around Haslemere, 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. If you want them looked at too, mention them when booking. Felt, rubber and GRP coverings on garages and outbuildings age in just the same way as the main roof’s.
You can share the report with anyone who needs it: a seller or estate agent, an insurer, a roofer, a builder or a managing agent.

Can I check my roof myself?
After heavy rain, check ceilings and the tops of walls for new stains. Take a photo and write down when you saw it, which helps when we check the roof.
You can learn a lot from the ground. Binoculars help you spot slipped slates or tiles, gaps along the ridge and a leaning stack. Never climb onto the roof to look.
Landlords, agents and block managers in Haslemere
Roof problems in a rented home affect tenants as well as the building. A survey helps you spot issues early and plan the work around your tenants.
For a freeholder or residents’ company, a roof report is a sound basis for a maintenance plan, putting the urgent items at the top.
The survey, step by step
Expect us to ask a few questions before we start, such as when any problem began and what work has been done before. The inspection then takes a length of time set by the roof’s area and construction, and we’ll give you a guide when quoting. Homes around Haslemere often have gardens on more than one side, which gives us room to step back and see the roof. Let us know if any side is fenced off or hard to reach. The loft, where there’s safe access, completes the picture.
- You let us know about the roof and where water is showing.
- We check whether the membrane and build-up suit ELD.
- The test method is chosen to suit the roof.
- We test the roof and locate any breaches.
- A report with photographs shows where each breach is.
Preparing for the visit
- Gather any invoices or paperwork from past roof work
- Have keys ready for side gates, garages or roof access doors
- If it is not your property yet, arrange access through the agent

Related advice
Why get it checked now?
Leaks left running can wet the insulation and deck. Locating it early helps limit the damage. In an older home around Haslemere, water from a roof defect can get into timber and plaster, which is far harder to put right than the roof fault itself.
Bigger, taller and commercial roofs take more time to survey, so the price reflects that. You’ll know the figure before booking.

- Stay off the flat roof unless needed

Common questions in Haslemere
Do you cover smaller places like Haslemere?
Yes, Haslemere is on our map. A small place gets exactly the same survey as a big one, with the route planned beforehand.
How do I find out if my home in Haslemere is listed?
We can’t confirm that for you, but Historic England’s list and your council can. A change of roofing material may need consent in either case, and councils can also use Article 4 directions.
Do you look in the loft space?
Where it’s relevant to the survey and there is safe access, yes. Please clear anything stored under the hatch.
Do you carry professional indemnity insurance?
Professional indemnity and public liability insurance cover our surveys. Ask if you need details for a managing agent or building owner.
Can you give me structural calculations?
No. Visible signs like deflection or sagging are recorded, but calculations and an engineer’s opinion are outside what we do. If one is needed, the report says so.
Do you use drones?
Yes, where it is applicable. Flights depend on the weather on the day and airspace rules. We hold a CAA Flyer ID and Operator ID.
Does someone need to be in?
That depends on the survey. For inside areas and the loft space, someone has to give us access; we will agree the details when booking.
