About our thermal roof survey in Easthampstead
What a thermal camera can show depends a lot on the weather. A sunny day before the survey, a dry roof surface and little wind all help. Rain, wind and cloud can all make the patterns weaker. We’ll discuss the weather with you when booking, and our report notes the conditions and how they affected what we saw. We’re frequently asked to look into damp around roof outlets and upstands and leaks that are hard to trace, on pitched roof slopes, insulated roof spaces and loft conversions.
Older cottages and houses around Easthampstead may have little insulation, and some have extensions with their own roofs. Thermal patterns and close-up photos together give a fuller picture of the roof. Anything that looks like moisture is checked with a meter. Results depend on the weather, so the visit is planned around the forecast.
You can share the report with anyone who needs it: your solicitor, the seller, your insurer, a roofer or the building’s managing agent, whichever applies.

Easthampstead questions
Do you cover Easthampstead?
Yes, Easthampstead is one of the places we work. Every survey there gets the same written report with photographs.
Is Easthampstead within the area you cover?
Yes, Easthampstead is on our map. Villages and rural addresses get the same survey as a town house, with the route planned beforehand.
How do I book a survey in Easthampstead?
It is easiest to ring 07833 053749 or use the contact form. Give us the address and some details about the roof. Surveys run seven days a week.
Is thermal imaging good for finding leaks?
It often helps show where to look. Water can travel under a covering before it shows inside, and temperature patterns can help follow it. We combine it with a visual inspection and moisture readings because the camera can’t confirm water on its own.
Which survey includes thermal imaging?
It comes with our Premium Survey, which starts from £400. The Premium Survey also covers a full inspection, drone inspection where it applies, structural analysis and a report on the same day.
Do you test for asbestos?
No. We don’t carry out asbestos surveys or testing. If we see materials that could contain asbestos, like cement roof sheets or soffits on buildings from before 2000, we flag them and suggest a specialist asbestos surveyor checks them before any work.
Do I have to be there for the survey?
Someone needs to let us in if we are looking inside or in the loft. We will talk about access when you book.

What else we do in Easthampstead
The survey, step by step
We photograph the roof as we go, so the report shows exactly what we saw. Close-ups come from the safest viewpoint available. A typical visit takes between one and two hours at most homes, rising to roughly 3–4 hours on a commercial building. With a bit of garden around a house, as there often is around Easthampstead, the roof can be viewed from several angles. Let us know if any side is fenced off or hard to reach. Inside, the loft is looked at where it can be reached safely.
- We start by discussing the roof, any signs of damp and how the weather may affect the images.
- We carry out a visual inspection of the roof from wherever it can safely be seen.
- A thermal camera records how the surface temperature varies across the roof.
- We check the patterns that stand out with moisture readings where there is safe access.
- We write up the thermal images alongside ordinary photos and recommendations.
How to prepare
- Point out any leaks or damp patches
- Clear the way to the loft hatch
- Mention any parking restrictions on your street

Different roofs, different checks
Parapets, valleys and junctions
Water often gets in where roofs meet walls, parapets or valley gutters. The camera can help show damp around these junctions.
Felt and asphalt flat roofs
Water under felt or asphalt can stay hidden for years. Thermal imaging helps suggest where it is, when the conditions allow.
What we cannot see
Some things can’t be seen without opening up the roof, so a survey has limits:
- Confirming water without moisture readings
- What’s inside walls or under coverings, without opening up
- Whether the deck or roof structure is strong enough
Not sure which survey suits your roof? You can phone 07833 053749 or send us an email and we will tell you. What our survey covers.
Roof types and parts we check
- Commercial roofs
- Loft conversions
- Insulated roof spaces
- Ceilings below the roof
- Pitched roof slopes
- Flat roofs
What you can safely check yourself
After strong wind, take a look from the pavement or garden: pieces of tile or slate on the ground, a gap in the ridge or a lifted flashing are all worth noting. Don’t go up yourself.
Keep a simple record: dates of leaks, photos from ground level and any work done on the roof. Send it with your enquiry and it will help the survey.
How we price thermal roof surveys
Survey packages start from £150, with VAT included. What you pay for your roof depends on:

Flying and imaging in Easthampstead
There are about 500,000 buildings on England’s list of listed buildings, and around 10,000 conservation areas. If your home is listed, changes that affect its special interest need listed building consent, and in a conservation area re-roofing in different materials may need permission, so check with the council. Where the drone is part of the survey, the flight is checked against the Drone Safety Map first.
If you look after a shop, office or commercial unit, for instance near The Lexicon, thermal images can show trapped moisture across a wide commercial roof. For an older house near a landmark such as St Michael and St Mary Magdalene's Church, steep roofs, tall chimneys and hidden valleys can be hard to see from the ground, and that is where a view by drone or thermal camera helps. Take a building like Fox Hill Primary School: a drone or thermal camera can show a large roof in a single visit.
