About our electronic leak detection in Stoneleigh

Our ELD testing covers flat roofs in Stoneleigh and the rest of London and South East England. A visit normally takes as long as needed for the roof’s area and construction, which we’ll explain when we quote. Every roof is quoted on its size and build-up. You get a written report with photos. We survey roof terraces and balconies, commercial flat roofs and green roofs, and the problems we’re asked to look at most are damage from equipment installers and leaks that return after repairs.

Around a smaller place like Stoneleigh, flat roofs normally cover extensions, garages and dormers. Even a small flat roof can let a good many water into the room below. What it’s covered in, and how well it was laid, decides what it needs. Ponding, splits and lifting edges are the signs to look for from a window.

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

How the survey works

The aim of the visit is simple: to see as much of the flat roof membrane as can safely be seen and record it clearly. Everything we note and photograph goes into the written report. The visit typically takes more time on a big roof than a small one, with the construction of the roof playing a part too. Homes around Stoneleigh 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 cannot get to. Inside, the loft is looked at where it can be reached safely.

  1. We start with what you know about the roof and the leak.
  2. We check whether the membrane and build-up suit ELD.
  3. The test method is chosen to suit the roof.
  4. We test the roof and locate any breaches.
  5. You get a report with photos of each breach.

How to prepare

  • Have any paperwork from past roof work to hand
  • Note where any stains or damp appear
  • Keep pets in another room

Why get it checked now?

Repairs in the wrong place leave the leak in place. ELD shows the actual breach points. In a smaller place like Stoneleigh, wherever a roof is exposed, a loose ridge or flashing does not stay loose for long. Each storm lifts it a little further, and water follows.

Larger roofs, taller buildings and commercial roofs take longer, so the price reflects that. The price is confirmed before you book.

  • Note where leaks show inside and when
  • Act on new leaks promptly

Not every roof costs the same to survey, for these reasons:

  • Extra roofs, like extensions, dormers or garages

Electronic leak detection in Stoneleigh: local notes

Older houses across Surrey often have handmade clay tiles, and many have tile-hanging. A few of Surrey’s oldest buildings have heavy Horsham stone slab roofs. Flat roofs fill the gaps in between, on extensions, garages, dormers and business premises. With Fitznells Manor about 0.8 miles south, Stoneleigh sits in an area with a long building history. On older houses around here, roofs often carry the marks of earlier repairs, from replaced slates to new lead.

If you look after a shop, office or commercial unit, for instance near The Ashley Centre, flat roofs over shops and units are easy to forget until water comes through a ceiling. Landlords with a home close to Stoneleigh station may find that the flat roof over a let home is worth a look before it becomes a tenant complaint. For site and facilities teams at buildings like Auriol Junior School, schools and public buildings often have big flat roofs, and their outlets and upstands need regular checks.
