Furzeley Corner Thermal Roof Survey
Need a thermal roof survey in Furzeley Corner? We can help, with a written report you can act on. Book a weekday or weekend visit.
- Cold areas below the roof
- Damp patches with no obvious cause
- Moisture around outlets and upstands
Practical tips
Most of what helps is simple and safe from ground level. Our suggestions:
- Move stored items away from the loft hatch
- Don’t climb onto the roof to look for leaks yourself
- Let us know where and when you’ve seen damp or stains
- Keep the report to compare against after any repair
After the visit, we put the thermal images, photographs and moisture readings into one report. We explain what each image may mean, alongside what we recommend. Premium reports are sent the same day.
Watch for new damp patches on ceilings beneath the roof. Early action keeps insulation from staying wet.
How a thermal roof survey works in Furzeley Corner
Thermal imaging is part of our Premium Survey, which starts from £400. It also includes a drone inspection where it applies, a structural analysis and a same-day report. An in-person consultation and a 12-month follow-up are included too. To book, just phone 07833 053749 or drop us an email with the address and what you’ve noticed. Larger commercial roofs are quoted for their size. We survey ceilings below the roof, commercial roofs and loft conversions, and people most often book us about moisture around outlets and upstands and water that travels before it shows.
In a small place like Furzeley Corner, 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. The visit is planned around the forecast, along with the journey and access. A change in the forecast can mean moving the visit to another day.
Most points in the report come with a picture, because a photo of a cracked flashing says more than a paragraph. If something couldn’t be seen safely, the report is clear about it.

How the survey works
Every roof is different; as a rough guide, the survey takes roughly 1–2 hours at a house, including the thermal images, and around 3–4 hours for a commercial roof. You’re welcome to ask questions while we’re there. Rural addresses near Furzeley Corner can be hard to find from a postcode alone, so a few directions are welcome. After that, the survey runs as it would anywhere.
- 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.
- We back up the thermal patterns with moisture readings.
- You get the report the same day, with an in-person consultation to follow.
Preparing for the visit
- Dig out any old roof reports or invoices
- Leave a clear route to the loft
- Note where any stains or damp appear

What a survey costs
We confirm the price for the job before booking. These are the things that affect it:
- Height and safe access
- If the survey needs thermal imaging or a drone
- The type of building, from a house to a block or an office
- The shape of the roof and its details
Thermal roof survey starts from £400, including VAT. What you pay depends on how big and how high the roof is, how it can be seen safely and the package you choose.
What to tell us when you contact us
When you call or email, these details help:
- The kind of building and roof involved
- Pictures of the roof from a safe spot, if you have them
- When you need the report by
- The reason for the survey, like buying, a leak or storm damage
Most bookings start with a short call: phone 07833 053749 or send us an email and we will ask a few questions about the roof. You will have a price before anything is arranged.

What we’re asked to look at in Furzeley Corner
Unexplained damp is one of the main reasons people ask for thermal imaging. Water can travel under a roof covering or along timbers before it shows inside. Temperature patterns can help narrow down where to look.
Signs worth acting on include:
- Damp that repairs haven’t cured
- Gaps in loft insulation
- Areas of a flat roof that may hold water
- Cold spots on ceilings under the roof
Anyone responsible for a site like Denmead Junior School will know that a view from above covers a wide roof far faster than walking it.
Questions to ask before you book
- Their insurance cover
- What happens after the report arrives
- Whether VAT is in the quoted price
- What the survey won’t cover
Can I check my roof myself?
After heavy rain, check ceilings and the tops of walls for new stains. Photograph them and note the date.
The one thing to avoid is getting up close. Slates, tiles, flat roofs and rooflights can give way, and falls from height are serious. That’s where a survey comes in.
Thermal roof surveys around Furzeley Corner
Furzeley Corner is within about 3 miles of the coast, and wind off the sea can be strong. Clear thermal results need a dry roof and little wind after a sunny day, so the date depends on the forecast. If the drone is used for your survey, the flight is checked against the Drone Safety Map first.
Around Furzeley Corner, as everywhere, small roof faults are simplest to sort before they let water in.

Your questions about thermal roof surveys in Furzeley Corner
Do you carry out roof surveys in Furzeley Corner?
Yes, Furzeley Corner 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 Furzeley Corner is listed?
The council and Historic England’s list are the places to check. Either can affect what roof work is allowed, so it is worth checking before planning any.
What will the report tell me?
It explains what we saw, what it means and what we’d suggest, backed by photographs. It also says if any part of the roof couldn’t be seen safely.
I live in a flat. Can you survey the roof?
Yes, if the building owner or managing agent agrees access. On a shared roof we can only inspect the parts we are allowed to reach.
Will the survey show heat loss through my roof?
It can show temperature patterns that point to missing or thin insulation. It shows most clearly when it’s warm inside and cold outside. We look from the loft as well, where there is safe access.
Do I have to be there for the survey?
It depends on what we need to see. Inside the building and in the loft, we need someone to let us in; we will agree the details when you book.
How long will you be at the property?
Expect it to take an hour or two on an ordinary house; commercial roofs usually need 3–4 hours. The written report follows by email.
Why act early in Furzeley Corner
Repeated repairs that don’t stop a leak are a sign the source hasn’t been traced. Thermal imaging with moisture readings can help narrow it down, instead of trying repair after repair. For an older or listed building in a place like Furzeley Corner, repairs may need matching materials and consent, so leaving a defect until it’s urgent leaves less time to plan.
Thermal imaging and drone inspection (where applicable) come with the Premium Survey, which starts from £400, including VAT. We will tell you which package suits the questions you have.
