Thermal roof surveys in Hampden Park

What we look for on each type of roof

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.

GRP fibreglass roofs

Glossy GRP can reflect heat. We allow for reflections and confirm findings with moisture readings.

Thermal roof survey in Hampden Park

Our Premium Survey, from £400, brings together a full roof inspection and thermal imaging. It also includes a drone inspection where applicable, a structural analysis and a same-day report. There is an in-person consultation as well, plus a follow-up 12 months later. 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 flat roofs, pitched roof slopes and ceilings below the roof, and common reasons people get in touch are damp patches with no obvious cause and areas of a flat roof that may hold water.

In smaller places like Hampden Park, many homes are bungalows and houses with roofs you can partly see from ground level. Chimney tops, valleys and rear slopes are where close-up or thermal images help most. Both depend on the weather on the day. Even so, a close-up image often shows wear on ridges and flashings that a view from the ground misses.

Findings are set out part by part, from the main slopes down to the gutters and outlets. It records what’s sound as well as what is not.

Practical tips

There is plenty you can do without going near the roof. Here’s what helps most:

  • Clear a path to the loft hatch before we arrive
  • Keep outlets and gutters clear to stop water sitting
  • Photograph damp patches with the date
  • Ask us about the forecast if rain is expected

You can pass the report to a roofer so they can see where the problem areas seem to be. Because the images are paired with photos, it’s easy to find each area on the roof.

Check that loft insulation is laid evenly and hasn’t been pushed aside. Gaps frequently appear after work in the loft.

What happens if roof problems are left?

A poorly insulated roof loses heat year after year. Thermal images can show where insulation is missing or has slipped, so you know where to put things right. Tradespeople may need to travel further to a smaller place like Hampden Park, so it helps to plan roof work rather than call someone out in a hurry. Knowing early gives you time to get the right people in.

Price depends partly on the package: from £150 for Basic, £250 for Standard and £400 for Premium, including VAT. The roof’s size, height and access matter as well.

What happens on the day

We photograph the roof as we go, so the report shows exactly what we saw. We take close-ups from wherever is safe. A typical visit takes about 1–2 hours at a typical home, and longer for a large or complex roof. A visit to Hampden Park is planned like any other: the time, the access and where to park are agreed in advance. Weekday and weekend visits are both possible. Let us know about any garages, outbuildings or extensions you want included.

  1. We start by discussing the roof, any signs of damp and how the weather may affect the images.
  2. The roof is inspected visually from safe viewpoints.
  3. A thermal camera records how the surface temperature varies across the roof.
  4. We check the patterns that stand out with moisture readings where there is safe access.
  5. The report sets out the images, what they suggest and what we recommend.

Before the survey

  • Have any questions written down, so nothing gets missed
  • Keep pets out of the way during the survey
  • Note where any stains or damp appear

Arrange a survey

We survey roofs on weekdays and at weekends. To arrange a day that suits you, call 07833 053749 or email us with the address and the days you’d prefer.

Advice

Thermal roof surveys in Hampden Park: local notes

Hampden Park lies within about 2 miles of the sea, 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. Older houses across Sussex often have handmade clay tiles, and many have tile-hanging on their upper walls. A few old Sussex buildings still carry heavy Horsham stone slabs, and the county’s older buildings include oast houses and Wealden hall houses. Older coverings on steep or tall roofs are hard to judge from below, so close-up close-up aerial shots and thermal images help.

If yours is one of the older homes in the streets near St Mary's Church, tall stacks and steep slopes are easier to judge with close-up aerial photos than from the pavement. For site and facilities teams at buildings such as Heron Park Primary Academy, a drone or thermal camera can show a large roof in a single visit.

Hampden Park is about 1 mile north-west of Eastbourne, in East Sussex.

Questions from Hampden Park

Do you cover smaller places like Hampden Park?

Yes, Hampden Park is covered. We survey roofs across London and the South East, from towns to the smallest villages. The journey is planned ahead, so it’s useful to know about access.

Is Hampden Park in the area you cover?

Yes. We cover the whole of London and South East England, and Hampden Park is part of that. You can ring 07833 053749 or drop us an email with the address and a few details, and we’ll talk through which survey suits.

Can thermal imaging show missing insulation?

Gaps and thin areas of insulation can show up on the camera. It shows most clearly when it’s warm inside and cold outside. Where we can reach the loft safely, we check there too.

What’s in the report?

Written findings with photos, covering the condition of the roof, the defects we found and what we recommend. Standard adds moisture detection and a structural check; Premium adds thermal imaging, drone inspection where it applies and structural analysis.

How long have you been surveying roofs?

We’ve been surveying roofs for over 20 years and have completed over 5,000 surveys.

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.

Will thermal imaging find my leak?

It is a useful tool for tracing leaks, but not the only one. The results depend on conditions on the day. Where it cannot be pinned down, the report suggests a next step, such as electronic leak detection.

Rented homes, blocks and businesses

Landlords, agents and building managers in Hampden Park and across East Sussex can book any of our surveys. To discuss a property or a block, call 07833 053749 or drop us an email.

With a portfolio of properties, surveys can be booked for more than one address. To discuss a number of properties, phone 07833 053749 or drop us an email.

DIY checks: what’s safe

Keep a simple record: dates of leaks, photos from the ground and any work done on the roof. Share it with us when you book, as it helps us focus the survey.

The one thing to avoid is getting up close. Roofs are fragile and slippery, and a fall can be serious. That is where a survey comes in, using safe viewpoints and a drone where applicable.
