A terrace or paved roof hides the waterproofing. Suitability depends on the layers.
About our electronic leak detection in Warren Corner
Water can travel under a flat roof membrane before it shows inside. That makes leaks hard to trace by eye. ELD tests the waterproofing directly and locates the breach. We test and report, and the repair is for your roofer. On suitable roofs, it replaces guesswork with a located breach. We then send you the results in a written report. If you are worried about repairs that haven’t stopped the leak and a flat roof leak that can’t be traced, a survey will tell you what’s going on, whatever the roof.
In a village or hamlet like Warren Corner, flat roofs are normally on extensions, garages, outbuildings or barn conversions. They need the same care as any town roof: the covering, the edges, the upstands and where water drains away. The journey and access are planned beforehand. Garages and outbuildings are easy to forget, so mention any you want included as you book.
Nothing in the report is left vague: where something needs attention, it says so plainly, and where it can wait, that is said too.

Tips that help
There is plenty you can do without going near the roof. What helps most:
- Keep a note of leaks after rain
- Keep foot traffic on flat roofs to a minimum
- Don’t let outlets block
- Don’t leave water getting in
File the report with your roof paperwork. It’s a dated record of the membrane’s condition.
Consider testing a new membrane before it is covered. Finding breaches is simpler at that stage.
What a survey costs
To price your survey, we look at:
- Whether it’s a home or a commercial building
- Chimneys, valleys, parapets and other details
- The roof’s overall size
- Extra roofs, like extensions, dormers or garages
What a survey costs comes down to the roof itself: 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.
Getting in touch
Some details help us suggest the right survey and price. When you contact us, tell us:

- Anything about access we should know
- Where any leaks, stains or damp patches show inside
Surveys can be booked for weekdays, Saturdays or Sundays. To arrange a day that suits you, phone 07833 053749 or send us an email with the address and the days you’d prefer.
Flat roofs in Warren Corner
Historic houses such as Farnham Castle, about 2 miles south-east, show how far back building in the area around Warren Corner goes. Older roofs in the wider area can hide decades of patch repairs, so the detail matters, and the council can say whether a home is in a conservation area. Older houses across Surrey frequently have handmade clay tiles, and many have tile-hanging. Horsham stone slab roofs survive on some old buildings in Surrey. Next to the main roofs there’s normally a flat roof somewhere, whether on an extension, a garage or a commercial unit.
If you look after a shop, office or commercial unit, for instance near Hart Shopping Centre, flat roofs over shops and units are easy to forget until water comes through a ceiling. If you look after a building such as Crondall Primary School, schools and public buildings often have big flat roofs, and their outlets and upstands need regular checks.

Signs you need electronic leak detection in Warren Corner
Other trades on the roof can puncture the waterproofing. Fixings, equipment and foot traffic can leave small holes.
Problems we come across frequently include:
- Patched roofs that still leak
- Punctures from foot traffic or tools
- Leaks under green or ballasted roofs
- Damp inside with no sign on the roof
For an older house near a landmark such as St Mary's Church, the joins between later flat roofs and the old walls are where problems normally start.

Questions from Warren Corner
How do I find out if my home in Warren Corner is listed?
The council and Historic England’s list are the places to check. It is worth checking before planning roof work, as both can affect what’s allowed.
Do you cover smaller places like Warren Corner?
We do. A small place gets exactly the same survey as a big one.
How do I book a survey in Warren Corner?
To book, phone 07833 053749 or send us an email with the address, the type of property and what’s prompted the survey. We’ll confirm the price and find a day that suits.
When does the report arrive?
The Premium Survey report comes the same day, the Standard within 24–48 hours and the Basic within 48 hours. All of them come by email.
What insurance do you have?
Every survey is covered by professional indemnity and public liability insurance, and details are available on request.
What is electronic leak detection?
The waterproofing membrane normally stops an electrical current, but a hole lets it through. That lets us find breaches that are too small to see.
What do I do with the report?
You receive the written report by email, with photos and recommendations. You can use it to talk to a seller, an insurer, a roofer or a managing agent, whichever applies.
How it works
We look at the roof from outside and, where it is relevant and there is safe access, from inside the roof space too. Inside, we look for staining, damp, gaps and signs of movement, as far as the space allows. All in, the survey normally takes more time on a big roof than a small one, with the construction of the roof playing a part too. Rural addresses near Warren Corner can be hard to find from a postcode alone, so a few directions are welcome. After that, the survey runs as it would anywhere.
- You let us know about the roof and where water is showing.
- The roof is assessed for suitability first.
- The test method is chosen to suit the roof.
- We test the roof and locate any breaches.
- A report with photographs shows where each breach is.
How to prepare
- Gather any invoices or paperwork from past roof work
- Make sure the loft hatch can be reached
- Agree roof access with the managing agent if it’s shared
How to book
A quick phone call is typically the easiest start: phone 07833 053749 or drop us an email and we will ask a few questions about the roof. You’ll have a price before anything is arranged.
