Bramley Green questions
Is Bramley Green within the area you cover?
We do. A small place gets exactly the same survey as a big one.
Does a conservation area affect roof work in Bramley Green?
Your council is the best source, with Historic England’s list for listed buildings. A change of roofing material may need consent in either case, and councils can also use Article 4 directions.
Is this a RICS survey?
No. Our survey is a roof survey, not a RICS Level 2 or Level 3 survey of the whole building. It focuses on the roof and can sit alongside a RICS survey.
Can you inspect my roof with a drone?
Where it’s applicable and safe, yes. We fly a sub-250g drone and we are a CAA-registered drone operator (Flyer ID and Operator ID). It’s included in the Drone Roof Survey and, where it applies, the Premium Survey.
Can thermal imaging show missing insulation?
It can show temperature patterns that point to missing or thin insulation. The difference is clearest when the building is heated and it’s colder outside. We look from the loft as well, where there is safe access.
What can thermal imaging tell me about my roof?
A thermal camera shows differences in surface temperature. Those patterns can point to trapped moisture, missing insulation or heat loss. We check what it shows with moisture readings.
What insurance do you have?
We’re covered by professional indemnity and public liability insurance, for every survey we carry out.
Thermal roof survey in Bramley Green
On a flat roof, wet insulation holds heat longer than dry insulation. So a wet patch can show as a warmer or cooler area on the camera. This can give an idea of how far water has travelled beneath the membrane, which is hard to judge by eye. We then check those areas with moisture readings. If you’ve noticed stains that keep coming back and leaks that are hard to trace, we can find out what’s behind it, whatever the roof.
In a small place like Bramley Green, open ground can mean strong wind. A small drone cannot fly safely in high 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. A change in the forecast can mean moving the visit to another day.
The report records the roof as we found it on the day. That makes it useful now and a handy reference later, for example when you want to check whether anything has changed.

What happens if roof problems are left?
Wet insulation under a flat roof does not dry out on its own while the covering stays on. In time, it stops insulating properly and can damage the deck. Finding them early can mean a smaller job. Older and listed buildings around Bramley Green may need consent and matching materials for repairs, so leaving a defect until it’s urgent leaves less time to plan.

Take a look at what a roof survey costs and what we found on two real jobs.
What we look for on each type of roof
Parapets, valleys and junctions
Water often gets in where roofs meet walls, parapets or valley gutters. Thermal imaging can help show damp patterns around them.
Pitched slate and tile roofs
Thermal images of a pitched roof can still show heat loss patterns and some damp areas. We explain what can and cannot be read from them.
How we price thermal roof surveys
Survey packages start from £150, including VAT. The price for your roof depends on:
- The shape of the roof and its details
- The number of roofs, including extensions and garages
- The roof’s overall size
- House, block, shop or office
Bigger, taller and commercial roofs take more time to survey, so the price reflects that. The price is confirmed before you book.
What we need to know
If you can, have these to hand when you get in touch:
- What made you get in touch
- Your timetable, such as an exchange date
- Where the property is, with the postcode
- Whether there’s a loft hatch, a shared roof or tricky access
To get a price for thermal roof surveys in Bramley Green, phone 07833 053749 or send us an email. The address, the type of property and what you want to find out help us give you an accurate price.
Landlord and commercial surveys in Bramley Green
We also survey roofs for businesses and commercial landlords, from shops and offices to industrial units. Larger roofs take longer, and they’re priced for the size.
Roof problems in a rented home affect tenants as well as the building. A survey shows what needs attention, so you can plan the work with less disruption.

How it works
After the inspection, everything we found is written up as a photo-illustrated written report, sent to you by email. On timing, most surveys take between one and two hours for most homes, plus time to check any thermal findings with moisture readings. In a hamlet or village like Bramley Green, a postcode does not always lead to the right gate, so a few directions are welcome. The visit itself is the same as anywhere else.
- We start by discussing the roof, any signs of damp and how the weather may affect the images.
- We check the roof from ground level, 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.
Getting ready for the survey
- Let us know about parking near the property
- Find any records of previous roof work
- Buyers: confirm access with the estate agent or seller
Arrange a survey

Advice
When you need someone else
Every survey has limits, and we’d rather be clear about that before you book. Keep these in mind:
- Seeing water directly, as the camera shows temperature, not moisture
- Whether the deck or roof structure is strong enough
- Reliable images in rain, strong wind or on a wet roof surface
If you’re not sure which survey you need, phone 07833 053749 or send us an email and we’ll give you a straight answer before booking. What our survey covers.

Flying and imaging in Bramley Green
Thatch survives on some older buildings in Hampshire’s villages. Slate and clay tile are the usual coverings on older South East houses, with concrete tiles on many later estates. A drone or thermal camera adds most on the steep, tall and hidden parts of roofs like these. The wider area around Bramley Green has a long history of building, with The Vyne about 2.1 miles south-west. Older roofs in the wider area can hide decades of patch repairs, so the detail matters, and any change of roofing material on a listed home needs checking with the council first.
If you look after a building such as Sherfield School, a drone or thermal camera can show a large roof in a single visit.
