Thermal roof survey in Bramshill
A thermal survey is not a quick fix for every roof problem. It shows surface temperature, and things like sun, shade, reflections and wind all affect the readings. We back up the images with moisture readings and a careful look at the roof. The report is clear about what the images show and what they don’t. If a finding cannot be confirmed, the report suggests a next step. Common reasons to book are stains that keep coming back and areas losing heat at the eaves and junctions, on pitched roof slopes, flat roofs and commercial roofs.
Somewhere as small as Bramshill, older roofs are frequently steep and partly hidden by trees or outbuildings. A drone and a thermal camera each give a view you can’t get from ground level. Weather and airspace are looked at before the visit. Older roofs with steep slopes and tall chimneys are where the extra view helps most.
Nothing in the report is left vague: where something needs attention, it says so plainly.

Bramshill questions
Do you cover smaller places like Bramshill?
Yes, we do. We work right across London and the South East, and smaller places are part of that. Longer journeys are simply planned ahead of time.
Do you cover Bramshill?
Yes, Bramshill is within the area we cover. We work right across London and South East England. You can phone 07833 053749 or drop us an email with the address and some details.
Can you inspect my roof with a drone?
Yes, where it’s applicable. Flights depend on the weather on the day and airspace rules, including flight restriction zones near airports. We are a CAA-registered drone operator.
What’s the best way to book?
Just call 07833 053749 or email us. We’ll ask a few questions, confirm the price and agree a date, weekday or weekend.
Will you walk on the roof?
Only if it’s safe. We inspect whatever is safely visible: from the ground, from windows, from inside the loft space, from the roof where it’s safe and by drone where applicable. Anything we can’t see is noted in the report.
Does thermal imaging detect leaks directly?
No, not on its own. It shows surface temperature, and wet areas can show up because they hold heat differently. That’s why we check any patterns with moisture readings.
Do you carry out surveys on Saturdays and Sundays?
We carry out surveys on weekdays and at weekends. To find a day that suits you, call 07833 053749 or drop us an email.

Practical tips
Getting the most from a thermal roof survey starts before we arrive and carries on afterwards. Tips:
- File the images with your roof records
- Make sure the loft can be reached safely
- Don’t climb onto the roof to look for leaks yourself
- Talk to us about the weather when booking
Buyers can use the findings when talking to the seller or agent. What you do with it is up to you, whether you ask for work before completion or discuss the price.
Clear outlets and gutters regularly, so water does not sit on the roof. The less water sits, the less can find its way beneath.
What a survey costs
We confirm the price for the job before you book. These are the things that affect it:
- The number of roofs, including extensions and garages
- The use of thermal imaging or a drone
- Which survey package you book
- Commercial roofs and larger buildings
Our price is from £400, including VAT. The final price depends on the size and height of the roof, how it can be seen safely and the package you choose.
What to let us know when you contact us
These details help when you contact us:
- The kind of building and roof involved
- The property’s address and postcode
- Pictures of the roof from a safe spot, if you have them
- The reason for the survey, such as buying, a leak or storm damage
Getting a price is simple: just call 07833 053749 or email us and give us some details about the property and we’ll explain which survey suits. The price is agreed up front.
The survey, step by step
We’ll ask a few questions first, about the roof’s history, any leaks and past repairs. Then the inspection itself takes between one and two hours at a typical home, though large, tall or awkward roofs take more time. Older rural homes like those around Bramshill can have a main roof, lower lean-to roofs and outbuildings all joined together. Each part is looked at from wherever it can safely be seen, and anything we cannot see is noted.
- First we discuss the roof, any damp and the forecast for the visit.
- The roof is inspected visually from safe positions.
- Thermal images are taken across the roof and, where there is safe access, in the loft.
- Patterns that stand out are checked with moisture readings.
- The report pairs each thermal image with a photo and explains what it suggests.
Getting ready for the survey
- Unlock side gates and any roof access doors
- Find any records of previous roof work
- Jot down any questions you want answered
Getting a price
Once you know what you need, ring 07833 053749 or send us an email. From there it is a case of choosing a package, agreeing the price and fixing a day, weekday or weekend.

Airspace, weather and Bramshill roofs
The wider area around Bramshill has a long history of building, with Stratfield Saye House about 2.8 miles west. Older homes in the wider area often have features worth a closer look, such as lead valleys, tall stacks and roofs that have been patched over the years, and any change of roofing material on a listed home needs checking with the council first. A number of Hampshire villages keep thatched roofs on their older buildings. Slate and clay tile are the usual coverings on older South East houses, with concrete tiles on many later estates. Steep or complicated roofs are frequently hard to see from ground level, which is where aerial photos and thermal images help.
Take an older house close to Mission Church: thin or patchy insulation under an old roof often shows up clearly on a thermal image.

Leave it or get it looked at?
Trapped water can harm decks, timbers and ceilings the longer it stays. Looking now, while the damage may still be limited, keeps more options open. In a small place like Bramshill, homes can be exposed to wind and rain, which finds any gap, and damp in older walls is slow to dry out.
