Our thermal roof survey service in Buckinghamshire

Thermal imaging is part of our Premium Survey, which starts from £400. It also includes a drone inspection where applicable, a structural analysis and a same-day report. An in-person consultation and a 12-month follow-up are included too. You can ring 07833 053749 or email us with the address and a note of what you’ve noticed. Larger commercial roofs are quoted for their size. Typical surveys look at damp around chimneys and parapets and areas losing heat at the eaves and junctions, across pitched roof slopes, loft conversions and insulated roof spaces.

On the day, we start by asking what you’ve noticed and what you want to find out. After that, we look at everything we can see safely, using the ground, windows, the loft and a drone where applicable. Most surveys take an hour or two at a typical home; commercial roofs usually need 3–4 hours.

We start by discussing the roof, any signs of damp and how the weather may affect the images.
We look at the roof from the ground, from windows and from the roof itself where it is safe.
We take thermal images of the roof to pick up temperature patterns.
Areas that look unusual on the camera are checked with moisture readings where possible.
We write up the thermal images alongside ordinary photos and recommendations.

Airspace, weather and roofs across Buckinghamshire

Across Buckinghamshire, the clearest thermal images come after a sunny day on a dry, calm roof. It shows surface temperature, not water, so findings are checked with moisture readings.

Across London and South East England, older homes frequently have slate or clay tiles, while many later ones have concrete tiles, and flat-roofed extensions and dormers are common everywhere. Each roof in Buckinghamshire is checked with its age and materials in mind.

Aylesbury: If you run a business near Friars Square, a commercial roof can be photographed from above without anyone walking on it. The streets around a church like Church of St Mary are frequently among the oldest in a place, and if yours is one of the older homes nearby, steep roofs, tall chimneys and hidden valleys can be hard to see from the ground, and that is where a view from above or with a thermal imager helps.

Why get it checked now?

Repeated repairs that do not stop a leak are a sign the source hasn’t been traced. Combining the camera with moisture readings can help find it, instead of trying repair after repair.

Can I check my roof myself?

Your own check is a good start, but it isn’t a survey. From ground level, valleys, flashings and the backs of chimneys are often out of sight.

Look up at the roof after a storm, from the ground: pieces of tile or slate on the ground, a gap in the ridge or a lifted flashing are all worth noting. Leave anything above ground level to a survey.

What a survey costs

We confirm the price for the job before you book. This is what makes a difference:

How big the roof is
The shape of the roof and its details
The package you choose: Basic, Standard or Premium
How many separate roofs there are, such as extensions, dormers and garages

A Basic Survey starts from £150, including VAT. The Standard Survey starts from £250 and the Premium Survey from £400. You’ll know the price for your survey before booking.

Different roofs, different checks

Felt and asphalt flat roofs

On felt and asphalt flat roofs, wet insulation can show as a temperature difference across the surface. We check those patches with moisture readings.

Pitched slate and tile roofs

From inside the loft, the camera can help with damp around chimneys, valleys and roof windows. We check any patterns with moisture readings.

Common questions in Buckinghamshire

How do I arrange a thermal roof survey in Buckinghamshire?

The quickest way is to call 07833 053749 or use the contact form. Give us the address and some details about the roof. We survey on weekdays and at weekends.

Are you insured?

Professional indemnity and public liability insurance cover our surveys. Ask if you need details for a managing agent or building owner.

Will I get photos?

Yes, plenty. Each finding is shown in a picture where possible, so you can see what we mean.

Can you check my loft insulation with a thermal camera?

Gaps and thin areas of insulation can show up on the camera. The difference is clearest when the building is heated and it is colder outside. Where we can reach the loft safely, we check there too.

Does someone need to be in?

Not always. An outside-only look can be arranged beforehand, but the loft and any rooms with damp need someone to let us in.

Do you cover Buckinghamshire?

Yes. We cover Buckinghamshire. To book, ring 07833 053749 or drop us an email.

What does a thermal roof survey show?

A thermal camera shows differences in surface temperature. Those patterns can point to trapped moisture, missing insulation or heat loss. Findings are checked with moisture readings.
