Electronic leak detection in Worting

Worting: your questions answered

Do you cover smaller places like Worting?

Yes, we do. We survey roofs across London and South East England, and smaller places are part of that. Longer journeys are simply planned in advance.

Do you cover Worting?

Yes, Worting is one of the places we work. Every survey there gets the same written report with photographs.

What does the report include?

It explains what we saw, what it means and what we’d suggest, with photos throughout. Anything we couldn’t see safely is noted too, so you know exactly what was covered.

Do I have to be there for the survey?

If the survey includes the loft or the inside of the building, someone needs to let us in. Access is agreed with you as you book.

Is my roof suitable for ELD?

That depends on the roof’s membrane and layers. Tell us what you know about the roof and we will check whether ELD will work.

Is this a RICS survey?

No. We check the roof, not the whole building, so it is not a RICS Level 2 or Level 3 survey. It can sit alongside a RICS survey if you want both.

Can you find leaks on a covered flat roof?

On some roofs, yes. Covered roofs limit the methods we can use so we check the roof first.

About our electronic leak detection in Worting

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. Each roof is quoted on its size and build-up. Testing can be carried out on weekdays, Saturdays or Sundays when conditions allow. Just ask about your roof. We survey liquid-applied waterproofing, green roofs and commercial flat roofs, and the problems we’re asked to look at most are breaches hidden under paving or planting and damp inside with no sign on the roof.

Around Worting, many homes have a garden room, garage or outbuilding with a flat roof. They’re rarely looked at until something gets wet. It’s worth mentioning them when you book, so the visit can include them, along with the main flat roof. Felt, rubber and GRP coverings on garages and outbuildings age in just the same way as the main roof’s.

Pictures do a lot of the work in our reports, so you can see each defect rather than just read about it. If something couldn’t be seen safely, the report is clear about it.

How the survey changes by roof type

EPDM rubber roofs

ELD on EPDM depends on the product and the layers. We check before we quote.

Green and ballasted roofs

Roofs with planting or ballast hide the membrane. Testing may still be possible, depending on the build-up.

Why it is worth a survey now in Worting

Chasing a leak again and again is frustrating. A report showing the breach points gives your roofer a clear target. Tradespeople may need to travel further to a smaller place like Worting, so it is useful to plan roof work rather than call someone out in a hurry. Knowing early gives you time to get the right people in.

Larger roofs, taller buildings and commercial roofs take longer, so they’re priced to match. The price is confirmed before booking.

The survey, step by step

After the inspection, everything we found is written up as a photo-illustrated written report, sent to you by email. As for time on site, most surveys take a length of time set by the roof’s area and construction, which we set out in the quote. For a survey in Worting, we agree the time, the access and parking before the day. Visits can be on weekdays, Saturdays or Sundays. If there are outbuildings or garages you want looked at, mention them.

  1. First, we confirm which roof areas are included.
  2. The surface is prepared for the chosen method.
  3. Testing runs across the agreed area.
  4. We mark the breach locations in our records.
  5. You receive the results to pass to your roofer.

How to prepare

  • Keep pets out of the way during the survey
  • Leave side gates unlocked
  • Let us know about parking near the property

What you can safely check yourself

Watch the gutters in a downpour, from a window or the ground. Overflowing water can be a sign of a blockage or a gutter that has dropped.

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. Please do not climb up for a closer look.

What electronic leak detection looks like in Worting

About 3.7 miles north-east lies The Vyne, a reminder of how long the area around Worting has been built on. On older houses around here, roofs often carry the marks of earlier repairs, from replaced slates to new lead, and a listed home or one in a conservation area may need consent for changes of material. Thatch survives on some older buildings in Hampshire’s villages. In this part of the South East, older roofs are mostly slate or clay tile and many newer ones concrete tile. Mixed in with those pitched roofs are a good many flat ones, over rear extensions, dormers, garages and shops.

If you live in an older home near Church of St Thomas A Becket, later flat-roofed additions are common on older houses, and their edges and upstands frequently show the first signs of wear. For landlords with property near Basingstoke station, the flat roof over a let home is worth a look before it becomes a tenant complaint. For site and facilities teams at buildings such as Chiltern Primary School, schools and public buildings often have big flat roofs, and their outlets and upstands need regular checks.

Practical tips

Nothing here needs a ladder. Our suggestions:

  • Keep a note of leaks after rain
  • Limit access to the roof
  • Clear flat roof outlets regularly
  • Have roof specifications to hand

The report records each breach location with photos. Pass it to your roofer to repair the breach points.

ELD before paving, ballast or planting goes on is worth considering. Finding breaches is simpler at that stage.
