Thermal roof survey in Churt
Wet insulation under a flat roof covering holds heat for longer than dry. That means a wet area can show up as a different temperature from the rest of the roof. It helps us see how far water may have spread under the covering, something you cannot typically tell from the surface. Moisture readings are then used to check what the camera suggests. We survey flat roofs, pitched roof slopes and insulated roof spaces, and the problems we’re asked to look at most are stains that keep coming back and wet insulation beneath the membrane.
In a small place like Churt, 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. We plan the journey, access and timing around the weather. A change in the forecast can mean moving the visit to another day.
Report times depend on the survey you book: Basic within 48 hours, Standard in 24–48 hours and Premium the same day.

Common questions in Churt
Is my home in Churt listed or in a conservation area?
For listing, use Historic England’s list; for conservation areas, ask the council. The answer matters most when a change of material is on the cards.
Do you cover Churt?
Yes, Churt is one of the places we work. The survey and report are the same in Churt as anywhere else, and visits run on weekdays and weekends.
Does the report include photos?
Yes. The report includes photographs of what we found, so you can see each point for yourself.
Can you give me structural calculations?
No. We point out what can be seen, like sagging or deflection, but we’re not structural engineers and don’t carry out calculations. If we think you need an engineer, the report says so.
When does the report arrive?
The Premium Survey report comes the same day, the Standard within 24–48 hours and the Basic within 48 hours. All of them come by email.
Will the camera show exactly where the water is?
Thermal imaging shows temperature rather than water. Wet insulation holds heat longer than dry, so it can stand out, but we check each finding with moisture readings.
What’s the best way to book?
The quickest way is to call 07833 053749 or drop us an email. Let us know the address and a little about the roof, and we will take it from there. We survey seven days a week.
How the survey works
A survey visit follows a simple order: we hear what you’ve seen, look at the roof from every safe viewpoint, photograph what we find and record our findings for the written report. It usually takes an hour or two at most homes, and longer for a large or complex roof. For a village or hamlet like Churt, the journey is planned in advance: let us know about lanes, gates and parking. The roof is looked at from the ground, from windows, from the loft where there’s safe access and from the roof where it is safe.
- You let us know 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.
- Moisture readings are used to check what the camera shows.
- The Premium report reaches you the same day, and we go through it with you in person.
Before the survey
- Mention any parking restrictions on your street
- Keep pets out of the way during the survey
- Leave side gates unlocked

What else we do in Churt
Leave it or get it looked at?
Buyers get extra information from thermal images that the eye can miss. Finding hidden moisture before exchange gives you facts to raise with the seller. Matching old materials, such as handmade tiles or stone slates, can take time to source. Spotting a problem early leaves room to find them.
Thermal roof survey starts from £400, including VAT. The final price depends on how big and how high the roof is, how it can safely be seen and which survey you book.

Different roofs, different checks
Loft insulation
The difference is clearest when the home is heated and it is cold out. We explain in the report how the conditions on the day affected what we saw.
Single-ply and EPDM roofs
Single-ply PVC, TPO and EPDM roofs are often laid over insulation boards. Wet boards can show as temperature differences on the images.
What a thermal roof survey looks like in Churt
If the drone is used for your survey, we check the Drone Safety Map for restrictions before flying. In Surrey, older roofs are often handmade clay tile, with tile-hanging on many upper walls. Some old buildings in Surrey and Sussex have Horsham stone slab roofs. Where a roof is steep, tall or hard to see from ground level, drone photos and thermal images add detail.
If you look after a building such as St John's CofE Aided Infant School, a view from above covers a wide roof far faster than walking it. Take an older house close to St John the Evangelist: steep roofs, tall chimneys and hidden valleys can be hard to see from ground level, and that is where a view by drone or thermal camera helps.

- Hidden layers that need to be opened up to check
