Bexon questions
Is Bexon in the area you cover?
Yes. We cover the whole of London and South East England, and Bexon is part of that. Just call 07833 053749 or email us and let us know about the property, and we will talk through which survey suits.
Do you cover smaller places like Bexon?
Yes, Bexon is covered. Our area covers London and South East England, from towns to the smallest villages. Longer journeys are simply planned ahead of time.
How long have you been surveying roofs?
More than 5,000 surveys over 20+ years.
How soon will I get the report?
Each package has its own report time. Basic is within 48 hours, Standard is 24–48 hours and Premium is the same day. Mention any deadline as you book.
Are you structural engineers?
No. We’re roof surveyors, not structural engineers, and it does not include calculations. We will recommend an engineer if we see signs that call for one.
I live in a flat. Can you survey the roof?
Yes. A shared roof needs access agreed first. Let us know about it when you book and we will explain what’s needed.
Will I get photos?
Yes. We photograph the roof as we go, and they go into the written report alongside our recommendations.
Thermal roof survey in Bexon
Our Premium Survey, from £400, brings together a full roof inspection and thermal imaging. You also get a drone inspection where applicable, structural analysis and a report on the same day. There’s an in-person consultation as well, plus a follow-up 12 months later. You can call 07833 053749 or email us with the address and a note of what you’ve noticed. For big commercial roofs, we quote on size and access. If you are worried about leaks that are hard to trace and possible trapped moisture under a flat roof covering, we can find out what’s behind it.
Villages like Bexon often stand in open country, where wind can be strong. A small drone cannot fly safely in strong wind or heavy rain, and thermal imaging works best with little wind. The visit is planned around the forecast, along with the journey and access. If the day turns windy or wet, the visit can be moved.
Pictures do a lot of the work in our reports, because a photo of a cracked flashing says more than a paragraph. If something couldn’t be seen safely, the report is clear about it.

Different roofs, different checks
Parapets, valleys and junctions
Junctions where roofs meet walls, parapets and valleys are common places for water to get in. The camera can help show damp around these junctions.
Loft insulation
From inside the loft, thermal imaging can show gaps in insulation and cold spots. We inspect the loft where it can be reached safely.
The survey, step by step
The visit typically starts outside and finishes in the loft: outside views come first, then the loft space if there is safe access. All told, expect about 1–2 hours at a typical home, while a commercial roof takes nearer three to four hours. Rural addresses near Bexon can be hard to find from a postcode alone, so a few directions are welcome. The visit itself is the same as anywhere else.
- You tell us about the roof and any damp, leaks or cold rooms.
- The weather and surface conditions are recorded.
- We inspect the roof and take thermal images during the same visit.
- We back up the thermal patterns with moisture readings.
- You get the report the same day, with an in-person consultation to follow.
Preparing for the visit
- Have keys ready for side gates, garages or roof access doors
- Make sure the loft hatch can be reached
- Mention any parking restrictions on your street

Advice
When you need someone else
Without opening up the roof, some things stay hidden, and that sets some limits:
- Reliable images in rain, strong wind or on a wet roof surface
- Structural calculations, which need a structural engineer
- Insulation values or heat loss calculations
If in doubt, ring 07833 053749 or use the contact form and we’ll recommend the right survey. What a survey covers and does not.
Roofs we survey in Bexon

Common roof problems in Bexon
On big commercial and residential flat roofs, thermal imaging helps owners plan. It can suggest which areas may be wet and which seem dry, so we know where to take moisture readings.
We’re often asked to look at:
- Wet areas near outlets and upstands
- Wet insulation beneath the membrane
- Patches of heat loss across the roof
- Damp patches with no obvious cause
For site and facilities teams at buildings like Bredgar Church of England Primary School, big roofs are where close-up aerial shots and thermal images show the most at once.
Choosing a roof surveyor
- Is there a chance to talk the report through?
- What they won’t be able to tell you
- Is VAT included in the price?
- Will the report include photos?
Flying and imaging in Bexon
Bexon is within about 5 miles of the coast, and coastal wind can be strong. Clear thermal results need a dry roof and little wind after a sunny day, so the date depends on the forecast. Where the drone is part of the survey, the flight is checked against the Drone Safety Map first.
The streets around a church such as Church of St John the Baptist are often among the oldest in a place, and if your house is among the older ones nearby, thin or patchy insulation under an old roof frequently shows up clearly on a thermal image.

- The use of thermal imaging or a drone
- The height of the building and how the roof can safely be seen
- How big the roof is
Thermal roof survey starts from £400, including VAT. What you pay depends on the size and height of the roof, access and which survey you book.

- Any photos you have, taken from ground level or a window
- Your timetable, such as an exchange date
