Over Wallop Electronic Leak Detection
We carry out electronic leak detection in Over Wallop and the rest of Hampshire. Surveys run on weekdays and at weekends.
- Leaks at pipes, outlets or fixings
- Breaches hidden under paving or planting
- Patched roofs that still leak
The survey, step by step
Before we start, tell us why you’ve booked: a purchase, a leak, a storm, new work or simply peace of mind. It helps us focus on what matters most to you. The visit usually takes longer on a large roof than a small one, and the build-up of the roof makes a difference too. In a small place like Over Wallop, access is typically the main thing to plan. Let us know about outbuildings, past repairs and any leaks you’ve noticed. Visits can be on weekdays, Saturdays or Sundays.
- We start with what you know about the roof and the leak.
- The roof is assessed for suitability first.
- We choose a low-voltage or high-voltage method to match the roof.
- We test the roof and locate any breaches.
- A report with photos shows where each breach is.
Before we arrive
- Gather any invoices or paperwork from past roof work
- Have keys ready for side gates, garages or roof access doors
- Jot down any questions you want answered
Arrange a survey
To arrange a survey, phone 07833 053749 or email us with the address and what you’d like to know about the roof. You will know the price before anything is booked.

How electronic leak detection works in Over Wallop
ELD suits many waterproofing membranes on flat roofs, on homes, blocks and commercial buildings. It helps trace a leak you already have 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. Tell us about your roof to find out more. If you’re worried about leaks that return after repairs and damage from equipment installers, we can find out what’s behind it, whatever the roof.
Older buildings in small places like Over Wallop may be listed or in a conservation area, which can shape what a new flat roof may look like. Check with the council before planning any change of material. Finding out what state the roof is in gives you the facts to plan with. Changes that affect a listed building’s special interest need listed building consent.
After the visit, you get a photo-illustrated written report, emailed to you. It sets out the condition of the flat roof membrane, any defects and our written recommendations.

Do you need electronic leak detection in Over Wallop?
When the membrane is buried, holes can’t be seen at all. Electronic methods can help on some of these roofs, depending on the build-up.
Common reasons to book include:
- New roofs to check before paving or planting
- Leaks through a flat roof with no obvious cause
- Holes around roof penetrations
- Leaking laps in the waterproofing
If you look after a building such as Wallop Primary School, ponding and blocked outlets on a wide flat roof are worth catching before the next wet season.
Choosing a roof surveyor
- Whether you can ask questions once you have the report
- Their report turnaround times
- Whether VAT is added on top
- How they’ll see the roof: from the ground, the loft, the roof or by drone
Why it is worth a survey now in Over Wallop
ELD before paving, ballast or planting goes on is simpler. Once layers are added, finding a breach is harder. In a place like Over Wallop, a barn or garage roof left to fail puts whatever is inside at risk. A quick look before winter can save a lot.
All our prices include VAT. Electronic leak detection is quoted for your roof, because the method depends on the roof. You will know the price for the job before booking.
Why choose Independent Roof Survey in Over Wallop
- Two decades and more of roof surveys
- We hold a CAA Flyer ID and Operator ID
- Surveys seven days a week
- Over 5,000 surveys carried out
Take a look at how roof surveys are priced and what we found on two real jobs.
Checking the roof from the ground
Watch the gutters in a downpour, from a window or the ground. Overflowing water can point to a blockage or a sagging run.
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.
What affects the cost of electronic leak detection
All our prices include VAT. The things that change the price are:
- Extra roofs, like extensions, dormers or garages
- How tall the building is and how easy the roof is to see
- Whether it is a home or a commercial building
- The use of thermal imaging or a drone
The cost of a survey depends on the roof: its size, its height, how many sections it has and how it can be reached and seen safely. We quote electronic leak detection for each roof, as the method and time depend on the roof.
What to let us know when you contact us
There’s no need for technical words. It’s enough to let us know:
- Photos of the roof, taken safely from the ground or a window
- Why you want a survey: buying, a leak, a storm or new work
- The kind of building and roof involved
- The property’s address and postcode

What electronic leak detection looks like in Over Wallop
A number of Hampshire villages keep thatched roofs on their older buildings. Slate and clay tile are the usual coverings on older South East houses, with concrete tiles on many later estates. Flat roofs on extensions, dormers, garages and business units are found alongside them almost everywhere. If your home is older, it’s worth knowing whether it is listed or in a conservation area before planning roof work. Listed building consent covers changes to a listed building’s special interest, and an Article 4 direction can bring extra controls in a conservation area.
If yours is one of the older homes in the streets near Church of St Peter, flat-roofed rear additions and dormers added over the years are worth checking. For landlords with property near Grateley station, the flat roof over a let home is worth a look before it becomes a tenant complaint.
