Electronic leak detection in Phoenix Green
Electronic testing locates holes in the waterproofing, not every cause of water getting in. Water coming through walls, copings, rooflights or plumbing will not show on the test. We will tell you if we think the leak is coming from somewhere else. It won’t show water getting in through brickwork or around frames. The report makes clear what was and wasn’t tested. You will also know what to check next. We survey single-ply roofs, flat roof membranes and roof terraces and balconies, and common reasons people get in touch are stains far from any visible defect and punctures from foot traffic or tools.
Somewhere as small as Phoenix Green, 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 as you book.
Every survey ends with a written report, with photos, 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 Phoenix Green?
Work on the roof can damage a membrane. Fixings, equipment and foot traffic can leave small holes.
Here are some of the things we see frequently:
- New membranes needing a check before handover
- Punctures from foot traffic or tools
- Damp inside with no sign on the roof
- Leaks through a flat roof with no obvious cause
Take a building like Greenfields Junior School: a large flat roof with lots of outlets and rooflights has many places where a membrane can fail.
Questions to ask before booking
- How soon the report will arrive
- Whether any drone flown is registered with the CAA
- Which limits apply to the survey
- Whether the roof space is looked at, where there is one

Why act early in Phoenix Green
Not every leak is in the membrane. Testing shows whether the membrane is breached so attention can go to the right place. Around Phoenix Green, older homes frequently have old roof timbers, where water from a failed roof can cause rot if it is left.
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.

What we look for on each type of roof
Bituminous membranes
Bituminous roofs often have laps and old repairs that can leak. Testing depends on the roof.
Single-ply membranes
Many offices and units have single-ply roofs. Seams and penetrations are typical breach points.
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. That way we can focus on what matters to you. The visit usually takes a length of time set by the size of the roof and how it’s built, and we’ll give you a guide when quoting. For a village or hamlet like Phoenix Green, the journey is planned beforehand: let us know about lanes, gates and parking. On the day, we inspect what can be seen safely, inside and out.
- You tell us about the roof and where water is showing.
- The roof is assessed for suitability first.
- We choose a low-voltage or high-voltage method to match the roof.
- The membrane is tested and breaches are found.
- You get a report with photos of each breach.
Before the survey
- If you are buying, check with the agent that we can get in
- Jot down any questions you want answered
- Leave a clear route to the loft

Common questions in Phoenix Green
Do you cover Phoenix Green?
Yes, Phoenix Green is one of the places we work. Every survey there gets the same written report with photographs.
Is my home in Phoenix Green listed or in a conservation area?
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.
How many surveys have you done?
More than 5,000 surveys over 20+ years, across London and South East England.
Does ELD include fixing the breach?
No, our part is finding the breaches. The report gives your roofer the locations.
Which days do you carry out surveys?
We survey seven days a week: weekdays, Saturdays and Sundays. Let us know which days suit you as you book.
Do you use drones?
Yes, where it is applicable. Our sub-250g drone is flown by a CAA-registered operator with a Flyer ID and Operator ID, and the airspace and weather are checked before every flight.
Is it a structural engineer’s report?
No. Visible signs such as 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.

A survey is a proper look at the flat roof membrane, but it can’t do everything. The main limits are:

What electronic leak detection looks like in Phoenix Green
Before planning roof work on an older home, find out whether it is listed or in a conservation area. Changes that affect a listed building’s special interest need listed building consent, and councils can also use Article 4 directions to control changes in conservation areas. Some Hampshire villages still have thatched roofs. Slate and clay tile are the usual coverings on older South East houses, with concrete tiles on many later estates. Mixed in with those pitched roofs are lots of flat ones, over rear extensions, dormers, garages and shops.
If you let a flat or house near Winchfield 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 example near Hart Shopping Centre, the flat roofs over shops and commercial units are worth checking before a leak, not after.
