How electronic leak detection works in Studley Green
Our ELD report shows where each breach was found, with photos. It tells your roofer exactly where to repair instead of hunting for the leak. We don’t estimate repair costs, so your roofer prices the work. A retest after repairs can check the work if the build-up allows. You get a photo-illustrated written report. If you’ve noticed stains far from any visible defect and gaps at membrane joints, a survey will tell you what’s going on.
Older buildings in small places like Studley Green may be listed or in a conservation area, and that can affect how an extension roof or dormer is re-covered. If you’re planning work, check with the council first. Knowing the roof’s condition is the starting point. Listed building consent is needed for changes that affect a listed building’s special interest.
You can share the report with anyone who needs it: a seller or estate agent, an insurer, a roofer, a builder or a managing agent.

What else we do in Studley Green
What happens on the day
Photographs are taken throughout the visit, so the report shows exactly what we saw. Close-ups come from the safest viewpoint available. Most surveys take more time on a big roof than a small one, and the build-up of the roof makes a difference too. Rural addresses near Studley Green can be hard to find from a postcode alone, so a few directions, or a note of a nearby landmark, help us arrive on time. After that, the survey runs as it would anywhere.
- First, you let us know about the roof build-up and where water is showing.
- We check that the membrane and build-up suit electronic leak detection.
- The method depends on the membrane and what sits above and below it.
- We test the membrane and find where current is passing through it.
- We send a report with photos of each breach so your roofer can repair it.
Getting ready for the survey
- Clear the way to the loft hatch
- Agree roof access with the managing agent if it’s shared
- Have keys ready for side gates, garages or roof access doors
Getting a price
Most bookings start with a short call: phone 07833 053749 or drop us an email and we will ask a few questions about the roof. You will have a price before anything is arranged.

Prices for electronic leak detection in Studley Green
Prices vary from roof to roof, and it comes down to:
- The shape of the roof and its details
- Whether thermal imaging or a drone is needed
- Building height and the viewpoints available
- The size of the roof
Every price we give includes VAT. Electronic leak detection is quoted for your roof, because the method depends on the roof. You will know the price for your survey before you book.
Getting in touch
To price your survey accurately, we’ll ask about:
- Your timetable, such as an exchange date
- Any stains, drips or damp patches you’ve seen indoors
- Pictures of the roof from a safe spot, if you have them
- Access details, like a loft hatch or a shared roof
Buyers should book once an offer has been accepted, so you have the findings in time to act on them before you exchange. Otherwise, simply call 07833 053749 or email us whenever suits you.
When you need someone else
Every survey has limits, and we’d rather be clear about that before you book. Bear these in mind:
- Leaks from walls, copings or rooflights
- Fixing the holes we find
- The extent of water in the insulation

Can I check my roof myself?
After strong wind, take a look from the pavement or garden: broken slates or tiles in the garden, gaps along the ridge or loose lead are signs to note. Leave anything above ground level to a survey.
Your own check is a good start, but it is not a survey. From ground level, valleys, flashings and the backs of chimneys are often out of sight, and those are details a survey looks at closely.

Why get it checked now?

How is ELD priced?
We quote electronic leak detection for each roof, as the method and time depend on the roof. The price depends on the roof’s size and build-up. To get a quote, ring 07833 053749 or use the contact form.
How does ELD work?
It uses an electrical current to find breaches in a flat roof membrane. A breach lets the current through so we can pinpoint it.
Does electronic leak detection work on all membranes?
ELD doesn’t suit every roof. Certain membranes are conductive, and some build-ups lack a suitable layer below. If your roof won’t work, we’ll say so before testing.
Will you fly a drone over my roof?
Yes, where it is applicable. Flights depend on the weather on the day and airspace rules. We hold a CAA Flyer ID and Operator ID.
