Electronic Leak Detection in New Haw
Find out the condition of the flat roof membrane at your property in New Haw. We visit on weekdays and at weekends.
- A flat roof leak that can’t be traced
- Stains far from any visible defect
- New roofs to check before paving or planting
DIY checks: what’s safe
Your own check is a good start, but it is not a survey. From ground level, valleys, flashings and the backs of chimneys are often out of sight, and those are details a survey looks at closely.
Watch the gutters in a downpour, from a window or the ground. Water spilling over the edge can be a sign of a blockage or a gutter that has dropped.
Electronic leak detection for homes and businesses in New Haw
There are different ELD methods. Low-voltage methods typically need a wet roof surface and high-voltage methods need the membrane dry and exposed. The right method depends on the membrane and the build-up of the roof and we explain which we’ll use. If neither method suits your roof, we’ll tell you at the outset. We survey green roofs, single-ply roofs and commercial flat roofs, and the problems we’re asked to look at most are leaks through a covered membrane and new roofs to check before paving or planting.
Outbuildings, garden rooms and garages in places like New Haw often have flat roofs of their own. 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 as you book, along with the main flat roof. 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: your solicitor, the seller, your insurer, a roofer or the building’s managing agent, whichever applies.

What electronic leak detection looks like in New Haw
About 1.9 miles south-east lies Byfleet Manor, a reminder of how long the area around New Haw has been built on. Older roofs in the wider area can hide decades of patch repairs, so the detail matters, and the council can say whether a home is in a conservation area. Older houses across Surrey frequently have handmade clay tiles, and many have tile-hanging. Some old buildings in Surrey and Sussex have Horsham stone slab roofs. Alongside them, flat-roofed extensions, dormers, garages and commercial units are common almost everywhere.
If you own a rental within reach of Byfleet & New Haw station, the flat roof over a let home is worth a look before it becomes a tenant complaint. If you look after a shop, office or commercial unit, for instance near The Peacocks, a flat roof over a business is out of sight and out of mind until it leaks. For an older house near a landmark such as 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.

What happens on the day
We photograph the roof as we go, so the report shows exactly what we saw. Close-ups come from the safest viewpoint available. A typical visit takes longer on a large roof than a small one, and the build-up of the roof makes a difference too. Homes around New Haw often have gardens on more than one side, which gives us room to step back and see the roof. Mention any side of the property we can’t get to. The loft, where there is safe access, completes the picture.
- We start with what you know about the roof and the leak.
- The roof is assessed for suitability first.
- 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.
Before the survey
- Let us know about parking before the day

Landlord and commercial surveys in New Haw
Buyers’ agents can book surveys on behalf of their clients. Reports are emailed, so they’re easy to pass on, photos included.
We also survey roofs for businesses and commercial landlords, including offices, shops and units. Bigger roofs take more time, so they’re priced to suit.
Why get it checked now?
Leaks left running can wet the insulation and deck. Finding the breach sooner limits that. In a smaller place like New Haw, wherever a roof is exposed, a loose ridge or flashing does not stay loose for long. Wind gets under it and lifts more, and water follows.
The cost of a survey depends on the roof: its size, its height, how many sections it has and how safely it can be seen. Electronic leak detection is quoted for your roof, because the method depends on the roof.
Why book us in New Haw
- An independent look at the roof
- CAA-registered drone operator (Flyer ID and Operator ID)
- 5,000+ surveys completed
- Two decades and more of roof surveys
