Electronic leak detection in Stoke D'Abernon: what you get

Our ELD testing covers flat roofs in Stoke D'Abernon and the rest of London and the South East. Testing usually takes as long as needed for the membrane area and the build-up, and we’ll give you a guide when quoting. Electronic leak detection is quoted for your roof, because the method depends on the roof. The results come in a written report with photos. If you’re worried about holes around roof penetrations and leaks under green or ballasted roofs, a survey will tell you what’s going on, on roof terraces and balconies, liquid-applied waterproofing and green roofs alike.

Older buildings in small places like Stoke D'Abernon may be listed or in a conservation area, and that can affect how an extension roof or dormer is re-covered. If you are planning work, check with the council first. Finding out what state the roof is in gives you the facts to plan with. Listed building consent is needed for changes that affect a listed building’s special interest.

We write the report in plain English, so it makes sense without any roofing background. Each point is backed by a photo where possible.

Take a look at how roof surveys are priced and two real surveys.

The survey, step by step

After the inspection, everything we found is written up as a written report with photos, emailed to you. As for time on site, most surveys take 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. Cottages and farmhouses around Stoke D'Abernon often have roofs at several levels, with lean-tos and outbuildings attached. Each part is looked at from wherever it can be seen safely, and anything we cannot see is noted.

  1. We start with what you know about the roof and the leak.
  2. The roof is assessed for suitability first.
  3. We choose a low-voltage or high-voltage method to match the roof.
  4. The membrane is tested and breaches are found.
  5. A report with photographs shows where each breach is.

Getting ready for the survey

  • Unlock side gates and any roof access doors
  • Leave a clear route to the loft
  • Let us know about any leaks, stains or damp patches you know of

Electronic leak detection in Stoke D'Abernon: local notes

In Surrey, older roofs are frequently handmade clay tile, with tile-hanging on many upper walls. Some old buildings in Surrey and Sussex have Horsham stone slab roofs. Mixed in with those pitched roofs are lots of flat ones, over rear extensions, dormers, garages and shops. Historic houses such as The Homewood, about 2 miles north, show how far back building in the area around Stoke D'Abernon goes. If your home is one of the older ones, expect a mix of original materials and later repairs on the roof, and any change of roofing material on a listed home needs checking with the council first.

If you look after a building such as Parkside School, a large flat roof with plenty of outlets and rooflights has many places where a membrane can fail. Landlords with a home close to Cobham & Stoke Dabernon station may find that the flat roof over a let home is worth a look before it becomes a tenant complaint. Take an older house close to Church of St Mary: flat-roofed rear additions and dormers added over the years are worth checking.

After strong wind, take a look from the pavement or garden: pieces of tile or slate on the ground, a gap in the ridge or a lifted flashing are all worth noting. Don’t go up yourself.
