Beauworth Thermal Roof Survey
Thermal imaging to find moisture and heat loss patterns in a roof for Beauworth and the rest of Hampshire. Surveys run on weekdays, Saturdays and Sundays.
- Gaps in loft insulation
- Wet insulation beneath the membrane
- Stains that keep coming back
The survey, step by step
The visit has one job: to look at the roof as closely as is safe and record what we find. Notes and photographs go into the written report. It usually takes about one to two hours for most houses, and longer for a large or complex roof. Older roofs in small places like Beauworth can have low, tight loft spaces, so it helps to know whether there is a loft hatch and how easy it is to reach. We only go where it’s safe.
- We start by discussing the roof, any signs of damp and how the weather may affect the images.
- We carry out a visual inspection of the roof from wherever it can be seen safely.
- Thermal images are taken to show differences in surface temperature.
- Areas that look unusual on the camera are checked with moisture readings where possible.
- The report sets out the images, what they suggest and what we recommend.
How to prepare
- Leave side gates unlocked
- Have any paperwork from past roof work to hand
- Mention any parking restrictions on your street

Thermal roof surveys for homes and businesses in Beauworth
We present each thermal image next to a normal photo of the same area, so it is easy to see which part of the roof each one shows. We explain what each pattern may mean, what the moisture readings found and what we recommend. With a Premium Survey, the report reaches you the same day. You can talk the findings through with us at the in-person consultation. A follow-up 12 months later is included too. We survey insulated roof spaces, flat roofs and ceilings below the roof, and people most often book us about wet insulation beneath the membrane and wet areas near outlets and upstands.
Older buildings in small places like Beauworth may be listed or in a conservation area. Neither a drone survey nor a thermal survey involves any work on the roof, which suits a building where any change needs care, before anyone decides what work it needs. Check with the council before planning any work on a listed building or one in a conservation area.
Where we can’t see part of the roof, the report says so. That way, it’s clear what was covered and what wasn’t, and what we’d suggest next.

What affects the cost of thermal roof surveys
Several things affect the price of a survey:
- Height and safe access
- The type of building, from a house to a block or an office
- Basic, Standard or Premium
- Whether thermal imaging or a drone is needed
Prices start from £150, inc. VAT, for a Basic Survey. The Standard Survey starts from £250 and the Premium Survey from £400, both with VAT included. We confirm the price for the job before you book.
What to tell us when you contact us
These details help when you get in touch:
- Why you want a survey: buying, a leak, a storm or new work
- Anything about access we should know
- Your postcode, so we can check access and travel
- Where any leaks, stains or damp patches show inside
Every survey is priced before it is booked, so you know where you stand. Thermal roof survey starts from £400, including VAT. To book, ring 07833 053749 or drop us an email.
Drones, thermal imaging and Beauworth roofs
If your survey includes the drone, we check the Drone Safety Map for restrictions before flying. Thatch survives on some older buildings in Hampshire’s villages. Across the South East, older homes tend to have slate or clay tiles, and many later ones concrete tiles. Many roofs like these cannot be judged properly from the pavement, and that is where a view from above or a thermal image earns its place.
If you live in an older home near Church of St James, older roofs can be steep and hard to see from the street, which is where close-up aerial shots and thermal images help. Hinton Ampner House, about 1.5 miles north-east, is one of the historic houses in the wider area around Beauworth. For older roofs nearby, a look by drone or thermal camera is a hands-off way to check condition.
Beauworth is about 6 miles east of Winchester, in Hampshire. Surveys in Beauworth work the same way as everywhere we cover: a proper look at whatever is safely visible, photos and a clear written report. Beauworth is one of the towns and villages in Hampshire where we work for thermal roof surveys. You can also see our page for Southampton.
Surveys in SO24 work the same way as everywhere else we cover. If you are just outside Beauworth, we cover Cheriton (2 miles north-east), Hinton Ampner (2 miles north-east), Bramdean (3 miles north-east), Warnford (3 miles south-east) and New Alresford (4 miles north).

Roof by roof
Felt and asphalt flat roofs
These coverings sit directly on the layers beneath, so temperature differences often show through. We confirm any patterns with moisture readings.
Loft insulation
Insulation often gets moved during work in the loft. The camera can show where it no longer covers the ceiling.
Checking the roof from ground level
Look up at the roof after a storm, from the ground: 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.
The one thing to avoid is getting up close. Slates, tiles, flat roofs and rooflights can give way, and a fall can be serious. That is where a survey comes in.
Beauworth: your questions answered
Do you carry out roof surveys in Beauworth?
Yes, Beauworth is one of the places we work. Every survey there gets the same written report with photos, and visits run on weekdays and weekends.
Is Beauworth within the area you cover?
We do. A small place gets exactly the same survey as a big one, with the route planned beforehand.
Do you carry professional indemnity insurance?
We hold professional indemnity and public liability insurance.
What can thermal imaging tell me about my roof?
The camera records how the surface temperature varies. The patterns can suggest wet insulation, gaps in insulation or heat escaping. Findings are checked with moisture readings.
Can you do a thermal survey in any weather?
The weather makes a real difference. A sunny day beforehand, a dry surface and calm air all help. Rain, wind and heavy cloud can weaken the patterns, so we discuss the forecast when booking.
What’s in the survey report?
Written findings with photographs, covering the condition of the roof, the defects we found and what we recommend. The Standard Survey adds moisture detection and a structural check, and the Premium Survey adds thermal imaging, drone inspection where applicable and structural analysis.
Do you survey on Saturdays and Sundays?
Surveys can be booked for any day of the week: Monday to Friday, Saturdays and Sundays. Let us know which days suit you when you book.
What this survey cannot tell you
We only report whatever is safely visible on the day, so some things are outside what a survey can do:
- Confirming water without moisture readings
- What’s inside walls or under coverings, without opening up
- A structural engineer’s assessment
If in doubt, call 07833 053749 or send us an email and we will recommend the right survey before you book. What our survey covers.
