Electronic leak detection in North Camp

Electronic leak detection for homes and businesses in North Camp

Our ELD report shows where each breach was found with photos. Your roofer can then repair those points instead of hunting for the leak. Repair costs are not part of the report, so your roofer prices the work. A retest after repairs can check the work if the build-up allows. You get a written report with photos. We survey single-ply roofs, green roofs and commercial flat roofs, and common reasons people get in touch are breaches around outlets and penetrations and gaps at membrane joints.

Outbuildings, garden rooms and garages in places like North Camp 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 when booking. Smaller roofs use the same coverings as bigger ones, from felt to rubber and GRP, and age in the same way.

The report works through the roof section by section, from the coverings down to the gutters. It records what’s sound as well as what isn’t.

What we do, step by step

On the day, we begin with a quick chat about the roof and anything that is worrying you. After that, we look at everything we can see safely, from ground level, from windows, in the roof space and by drone where it applies. Most surveys take a time that depends on the size of the roof and how it’s built, which we set out in the quote. In a smaller place like North Camp, parking is seldom the issue; lanes, gates and long drives are worth mentioning. Low roofs on bungalows can frequently be seen well from ground level, and the loft shows the rest.

  1. We ask about the roof, its age, its membrane and where leaks appear inside.
  2. The roof is assessed to see if electronic testing will work on it.
  3. The testing method is chosen to suit the membrane and build-up.
  4. We test the membrane and find where current is passing through it.
  5. You get a report showing where each breach is, for your roofer to repair.

Before the survey

  • Let us know about parking before the day
  • If you’re buying, check with the agent that we can get in
  • If the roof is shared, arrange access with whoever manages the building

Why act early in North Camp

Leaks left running can wet the insulation and deck. Finding the breach sooner limits that. Blocked gutters on homes around North Camp overflow and soak walls, especially where trees overhang. Dealing with the cause is simple; drying out a wall is not.

What a survey costs comes down to the roof itself: 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.

Useful tips for North Camp property owners

A few practical points come up again and again on our surveys. They’re worth knowing whatever the roof:

  • Keep a note of leaks after rain
  • Limit access to the roof
  • Share any drawings of the roof
  • Ask contractors to protect the membrane

If anything in the report is not clear, ask us. We can talk you through the findings.

Don’t leave a flat roof leak running. Water under a membrane can spread.

Flat and commercial roofs around North Camp

About 4.8 miles south-west lies Farnham Castle, a reminder of how long the area around North Camp has been built on. Older homes in the wider area often have features worth a closer look, such as lead valleys, tall stacks and roofs that have been patched over the years. Thatch survives on some older buildings in Hampshire’s villages. Across the South East, older homes tend to have slate or clay tiles, and many later ones concrete tiles. Flat roofs fill the gaps in between, on extensions, garages, dormers and business premises.

For site and facilities teams at buildings such as St Mark's Church of England Aided Primary School, a large flat roof with a good many outlets and rooflights has many places where a membrane can fail. Landlords with a home close to North Camp station may find that flat roofs on let property tend to be checked only when they fail, which is the costly way round. Shop and office owners around Hart Shopping Centre may find that outlets and upstands on commercial flat roofs are the places to check before trouble starts.

North Camp: your questions answered

Do you carry out roof surveys in North Camp?

We do. Every survey there gets the same written report with photographs, and visits run on weekdays and weekends.

How do I find out if my home in North Camp is listed?

Historic England’s list shows listed buildings, and the local council can tell you about conservation areas. Listed building consent is needed for changes that affect a listed building’s special interest, and conservation areas can limit changes of roofing material.

Will you check the loft?

Yes, where the survey calls for it and there is safe access. Inside, we look for damp, staining, gaps and sagging, as far as the space allows.

What do I do with the report?

You will receive the report by email, and you decide the next step: use it with a seller, an insurer, a roofer or a managing agent.

Can you inspect my roof with a drone?

Where it helps and the rules allow, yes. We hold a CAA Flyer ID and Operator ID and fly a drone under 250g, and the airspace and weather are checked before every flight.

Will I get photos?

Yes. Photographs are part of every report, so you can see exactly what each finding refers to.

Do you use low-voltage or high-voltage testing?

It depends on the membrane and the build-up. Low-voltage methods are usually carried out on a wet roof and high-voltage methods need the membrane dry and exposed.

Can I check my roof myself?

During heavy rain, look at the gutters from ground level or a window. Water spilling over the edge can point to a blockage or a sagging run.

Fresh stains on ceilings or walls after rain are worth noting. Photograph them and note the date, as it helps a surveyor trace the cause.

How the survey changes by roof type

Bituminous membranes

Older felt roofs frequently have seams and patches that can leak. We test where the roof suits it.

Inverted and paved roofs

Inverted roofs have the insulation on top of the waterproofing and that changes how testing works.

How we price electronic leak detection

To price your survey, we check:

  • Chimneys, valleys, parapets and other details
  • The height of the building and how the roof can safely be seen
  • The size of the roof
  • The type of building, from a house to a block or an office

Larger roofs, taller buildings and commercial roofs take longer, so they’re priced to match. You will know the figure before booking.

What we need to know

We’ll usually ask about:

  • What kind of property and roof it is
  • The address and postcode of the property
  • Dates you’re working to, such as exchange
  • Pictures of the roof from a safe spot, if you have them

Getting a price is simple: just phone 07833 053749 or send us an email and give us a few details about the property and we will suggest the right survey. The price is agreed up front.
