About our thermal roof survey in Fullerton
Our thermal survey records how the surface temperature varies across your roof. The patterns can suggest wet insulation, gaps in insulation or places where heat is getting out. The camera doesn’t see water itself, so we check what it shows with moisture readings. It comes as part of our Premium Survey, from £400. Conditions on the day affect the results, and the report explains how. Typical surveys look at areas of a flat roof that may hold water and thin or uneven insulation in the roof, on commercial roofs, loft conversions and flat roofs.
Older buildings in small places like Fullerton may be listed or in a conservation area. Neither a drone survey nor a thermal survey involves any work on the roof, which suits a building where any change needs care, before anyone decides what work it needs. Check with the council before planning any work on a listed building or one in a conservation area.
The report works through the roof section by section, from the coverings down to the gutters, each with a short note and a photograph. It records what’s sound as well as what is not.

What you can safely check yourself
What you can’t do safely is get up close. Roofs are fragile and slippery, and falls from height are serious. That’s where a survey comes in, using safe viewpoints and a drone where it applies.
Watch the gutters in a downpour, from a window or the ground. Overflowing water can point to a blockage or a sagging run.
What affects the cost of thermal roof surveys
Prices vary from roof to roof, for these reasons:
- How big the roof is
- Which survey package you book
- Building height and the viewpoints available
- House, block, shop or office
Our price is from £400, including VAT. Packages run from Basic at £150 through Standard at £250 to Premium at £400, inc. VAT, and we can help you choose.
What we need to know
A little information up front helps. It’s useful to include:
- Any deadline, such as an exchange date
- Where water is showing inside, if it is
- The type of building and roof, like pitched or flat
- What made you get in touch
Surveys can be booked for weekdays, Saturdays or Sundays. To arrange a day that suits you, call 07833 053749 or send us an email with the address and the days you’d prefer.
What a thermal roof survey does not cover
A survey is a proper look at the roof, but it can’t do everything. Its limits include:
- The condition of timbers we cannot see
- Whether the deck or roof structure is strong enough
- Insulation values or heat loss calculations

Airspace, weather and Fullerton roofs
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. 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. An older home may be listed, or stand in a conservation area. To find out, check Historic England’s list and ask the council about conservation areas. Re-roofing in different materials may need permission there.

What we look for on each type of roof
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 can’t be read from them.
GRP fibreglass roofs
Water can get through cracked GRP into the deck. We check cracks by eye and use the images to see whether there is a pattern around them.
Your questions about thermal roof surveys in Fullerton
Do you cover Fullerton?
Yes, Fullerton is within the area we cover. We survey roofs across London and the South East. You can phone 07833 053749 or drop us an email with the address and a few details.
Will you come out to Fullerton?
We do. Villages and rural addresses get the same survey as a town house, with the route planned beforehand.
How long will you be at the property?
It usually takes about 1–2 hours for most homes, plus time to check any thermal findings with moisture readings. We’ll confirm the timing as you book.
Can a thermal camera see water?
Not directly. It shows surface temperature, and wet areas can show up because they hold heat differently. We confirm what it suggests with moisture readings.
How do I book a survey in Fullerton?
Just phone 07833 053749 or use the contact form. After a few questions, we confirm the price and fix a day.
Can you tell me if my roof has asbestos?
No. Asbestos surveys and sampling are not something we do. The report may flag materials that could contain asbestos on buildings built or refurbished before 2000, with a recommendation to have a specialist asbestos surveyor check before it’s disturbed.
What does a thermal roof survey show?
A thermal camera shows differences in surface temperature. The patterns can suggest wet insulation, gaps in insulation or heat escaping. We check what it shows with moisture readings.
What happens on the day
There isn’t much for you to do on the day. Point out anything you’ve noticed, such as stains, drips or loose pieces, and we’ll get on with the inspection. A typical survey takes about 1–2 hours for most houses; commercial roofs usually need 3–4 hours. Rural addresses near Fullerton can be hard to find from a postcode alone, 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 the ground, from windows and from the roof itself where it is safe.
- A thermal camera records how the surface temperature varies across the roof.
- We check the patterns that stand out with moisture readings where there’s safe access.
- We write up the thermal images alongside ordinary photos and recommendations.
Getting ready for the survey
- Keep pets in another room
- Point out any leaks or damp patches
- Gather any invoices or paperwork from past roof work
Getting a price
To arrange a survey, phone 07833 053749 or send us an email with the address and what you’d like to know about the roof. We will confirm the price before booking.
Related advice
Do you need a thermal roof survey in Fullerton?
Building owners and managing agents use thermal surveys to plan work on larger flat roofs. Patterns can point to wet areas and show which parts look sound, so we know where to take moisture readings.
We’re frequently asked to look at:
- Cold spots on ceilings under the roof
- Damp around chimneys and parapets
- Heat escaping through the roof
- Stains that keep coming back
If you own one of the older houses in the streets near Church of St Nicholas, tall stacks and steep slopes are easier to judge with close-up aerial photos than from the pavement.
What to check before booking
- Their report turnaround times
- Whether the roof space is looked at, where there is one
- How they’ll see the roof: from the ground, the loft, the roof or by drone
- Their insurance cover
