About our thermal roof survey in Breamore
A thermal survey can point to places where heat is escaping through the roof. Missing or slipped insulation and gaps at the eaves often show up as temperature differences. It works best when the building is heated and it’s colder outside. The report shows the images and explains what they may mean. We do not give energy ratings or heat loss calculations. We’re frequently asked to look into damp patches with no obvious cause and possible trapped moisture under a flat roof covering, across commercial roofs, insulated roof spaces and pitched roof slopes.
In a village or hamlet like Breamore, roofs can be steep, old and hard to see from the lane. Close-up drone photos and thermal images help show what can’t be reached safely. Weather and airspace are checked ahead of the visit, and the journey is planned ahead of time. Steep slopes and tall chimney stacks are where a close-up view adds the most.
The Standard Survey adds moisture detection, a structural check and a follow-up consultation. The Premium Survey goes further, with thermal imaging, drone inspection where applicable, structural analysis and an in-person consultation.

What we do, step by step
You don’t need to do much on the day. Point out anything you’ve noticed, like stains, drips or loose pieces, and we will get on with the inspection. A typical survey takes an hour or two for most homes, plus time to check any thermal findings with moisture readings. Around Breamore, older homes can have small or awkward roof spaces, so let us know about the loft hatch and any ladder. Only areas that can be reached safely are inspected.
- 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.
- Each image is set beside a normal photo and explained in the report.
How to prepare
- For a flat or shared roof, check access with whoever owns or manages the building
- Let us know about parking near the property
- Note where any stains or damp appear

Thermal roof surveys in Breamore: local notes
With Breamore House about 1 mile north-west, Breamore sits in an area with a long building history. Period homes nearby can have lead valleys, tall chimneys and a patchwork of past repairs. Some Hampshire villages still have thatched roofs. Older houses in the South East often have slate or clay tile roofs, while many later estates have concrete tiles. Many roofs like these can’t be judged properly from the pavement, and that is where a view from above or a thermal image earns its place.
Take an older house close to St Boniface: older roofs can be steep and hard to see from the street, which is where photos from the air and thermal images help. Anyone responsible for a site like Breamore Church of England Primary School will know that big roofs are where aerial photos and thermal images show the most at once.
Breamore is in Hampshire. Anywhere in Breamore, we can come and survey your property. Breamore is one of the towns and villages in Hampshire where we work for thermal roof surveys. For surveys nearby, see our Southampton page.

FAQs for Breamore
Is Breamore in the area you cover?
Yes, Breamore is one of the places we work. Every survey there gets the same written report with photographs, and visits run on weekdays and weekends.
How do I find out if my home in Breamore is listed?
The council and Historic England’s list are the places to check. It is worth checking before planning roof work, as both can affect what’s allowed.
Is thermal imaging useful on pitched roofs?
It can be useful, though pitched roofs are normally harder to read. The air space under slates and tiles can hide patterns, so we combine it with an inspection from the loft where there is safe access.
What happens next?
The report arrives by email, with photographs and clear recommendations. The Standard Survey includes a follow-up consultation, and the Premium Survey an in-person consultation.
How fast do I get the report?
That depends on the survey you book: the Basic Survey report arrives within 48 hours, the Standard Survey in 24 to 48 hours and the Premium Survey the same day. The report is emailed to you.
Will you fly a drone over my roof?
Where it helps and the rules allow, yes. We hold a CAA Flyer ID and Operator ID and fly a drone under 250g, and the airspace and weather are checked before every flight.
Is this an asbestos survey?
No. Asbestos surveys and sampling are not something we do. Where a material might contain it, such as old cement sheets on a building from before 2000, the report flags it.
Tips from our surveys
Getting the most from a thermal roof survey starts before we arrive and carries on afterwards. Some tips:
- Don’t switch the heating off ahead of the visit
- Do not climb onto the roof to look for leaks yourself
- Check the loft can be reached safely
- File the images with your roof records
You can pass the report to a roofer so they can see where the problem areas seem to be. Each thermal image is matched to a normal photo, so the areas are easy to locate.
After repairs or a new covering, a later survey can confirm things are dry in suitable weather.

Different roofs, different checks
Parapets, valleys and junctions
Damp at junctions can be hard to see by eye. A careful visual inspection goes alongside the images.
Loft insulation
Heat loss shows most clearly when it is warm inside and colder outside. Our report notes how the conditions affected the images.
What a thermal roof survey doesn’t cover
To be straight with you, there are limits to any roof survey:
- Insulation values or heat loss calculations
- Readings unaffected by sun, shade or reflections
- Seeing water directly, as the camera shows temperature, not moisture
If you are not sure which survey you need, phone 07833 053749 or drop us an email and we will give you a straight answer before booking. What a survey covers and does not.
