About our electronic leak detection in Wildmoor
Electronic leak detection works on many flat roof membranes over offices, units, blocks of flats and homes. It can be used to trace an existing leak or check a new membrane before handover. We quote for each roof based on its size and build-up. We can test on weekdays and at weekends, depending on the weather. Let us know about your roof to find out more. If you’ve noticed leaks through a flat roof with no obvious cause and punctures from foot traffic or tools, a survey will tell you what’s going on.
Somewhere as small as Wildmoor, 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. We simply plan the journey and access beforehand. Garages and outbuildings are easy to forget, so mention any you want included when booking.
The report works through the roof section by section, from the coverings down to the gutters, each with a short note and a photo. It records what’s sound as well as what is not.

How it works
We do not take risks to get a closer look. Everything that can safely be seen is inspected, and if part of the roof can’t be seen, the report says so. The survey typically takes a time that depends on the size of the roof and how it’s built, and we’ll give you a guide when quoting. Around Wildmoor, older homes can have small or awkward roof spaces, so it helps to know whether there is a loft hatch and how easy it is to reach. We only go where it is safe.
- We ask about the roof, its age, its membrane and where leaks appear inside.
- 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.
- Testing runs across the roof to locate breaches in the membrane.
- You get a report showing where each breach is, for your roofer to repair.
How to prepare
- Have any questions written down, so nothing gets missed
- Leave a clear route to the loft
- Mention any parking restrictions on your street

Before and after the survey
These tips come from what we see on roofs every week, before and after a survey:
- Find the breach before more patching
- Use boards when working on the roof
- Share any drawings of the roof
- Keep a note of leaks after rain
If anything in the report is not clear, ask us. We will explain what was found and what it means.
Keep people off the flat roof unless they need to be there. Feet and dropped tools are a common cause of holes.
Flat roofs in Wildmoor
The wider area around Wildmoor has a long history of building, with The Vyne about 3 miles west. Older homes in the wider area often have features worth a closer look, like lead valleys, tall stacks and roofs that have been patched over the years. Some Hampshire villages still have thatched roofs. Older houses in the South East frequently have slate or clay tile roofs, while many later estates have concrete tiles. Alongside them, flat-roofed extensions, dormers, garages and commercial units are common almost everywhere.
For landlords with property near Bramley (Hants) station, flat roofs on let property tend to be checked only when they fail, which is the costly way round. For businesses in and around places such as Festival Place, outlets and upstands on commercial flat roofs are the places to check before trouble starts.

Signs you need electronic leak detection in Wildmoor
Holes in a membrane often come from feet, tools or debris. Some are too small to see but water still finds them.
People normally book a survey when they’ve noticed something like this:
- Gaps at membrane joints
- New roofs to check before paving or planting
- Damage from equipment installers
- Water coming in under a flat roof
For an older house near a landmark such as Church of St. Leonard, later flat-roofed additions are common on older houses, and their edges and upstands often show the first signs of wear.
Choosing a roof surveyor
- Their insurance cover
- Whether the roof space is looked at, where there is one
- How they’ll see the roof: from ground level, the loft, the roof or by drone
- What exactly goes into their report
Leave it or get it looked at?
Not every leak is in the membrane. Testing shows whether the membrane is breached, so other causes can be checked. Matching old materials, like handmade tiles or stone slates, can take time to source. That’s one more reason to find defects before they become urgent.
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.
Why us?

Should I look at the roof myself first?
You can learn a lot from ground level. With binoculars, look for slipped or missing slates and tiles, gaps along the ridge and leaning chimneys. Never climb onto the roof to look.
Keep a simple record: when leaks happen, ground-level photos and any past roof work. Send it with your enquiry.

Questions from Wildmoor
Is Wildmoor in the area you cover?
Yes, Wildmoor is within the area we cover. We work right across London and the South East. You can ring 07833 053749 or use the contact form with the address and some details.
Do you cover smaller places like Wildmoor?
Yes, Wildmoor is on our map. A small place gets exactly the same survey as a big one.
What if it rains on the day?
Some surveys depend on the weather more than others. Drones can’t fly safely in strong wind or heavy rain, and thermal imaging works best after a sunny day, with a dry roof and little wind. If the conditions are not right, we’ll talk to you about another date.
Do you test for asbestos?
No. Asbestos surveys and testing are not part of what we do. We flag materials that could contain asbestos, such as cement sheets or soffits on pre-2000 buildings, and recommend a specialist asbestos surveyor checks them before they’re disturbed.
Do you need to get into the loft?
If it’s needed and safe to reach, yes. Inside, we look for damp, staining, gaps and sagging, as far as the space allows.

Is the repair part of the test?
No, our part is finding the breaches. Your roofer uses the report to target the repair.
