Highstreet Green Thermal Roof Survey
Thermal roof surveys in Highstreet Green and the rest of Surrey. Surveys run on any day of the week.
- Damp where roofs meet walls and chimneys
- Areas of a flat roof that may hold water
- Water that travels before it shows
Useful tips for Highstreet Green property owners
A little preparation and a few simple habits help, both for the survey and for the roof itself. Our tips:
- Keep a record of when stains appear
- File the images with your roof records
- Heat the home normally on the days before
- Keep dated photos of any marks on ceilings
Premium Surveys include an in-person consultation, giving you the chance to talk through the images and findings. There is a 12-month follow-up too.
Consider a repeat survey after major work on the roof in suitable weather.
Thermal roof surveys for homes and businesses in Highstreet Green
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 call 07833 053749 or send us an email with the address and what you’ve noticed. For big commercial roofs, we quote on size and access. We are often asked to look into leaks that are hard to trace and cold spots on ceilings under the roof, across flat roofs, loft conversions and commercial roofs.
In a small place like Highstreet Green, open ground can mean strong wind. Strong wind or a downpour stops a small drone flying, and calm conditions also suit thermal imaging best. We plan the journey, access and timing around the weather. If the day turns windy or wet, the visit can be moved.
We keep jargon out of it: if work is needed, the report says so clearly.

For landlords and managing agents
Where a roof is shared: access has to be agreed with whoever owns or manages the building. Mention it when you contact us and we will plan the visit with that in mind.
Buyers’ agents can book surveys on behalf of their clients. Reports are emailed, so they’re easy to pass on.

Questions from Highstreet Green
Does a conservation area affect roof work in Highstreet Green?
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 carry out roof surveys in Highstreet Green?
Yes, Highstreet Green is within the area we cover. We cover the whole of London and South East England. You can call 07833 053749 or drop us an email with the address and a few details, and we will talk through which survey suits.
Can you survey at the weekend?
Surveys run on weekdays and at weekends. To find a day that suits you, ring 07833 053749 or send us an email.
I live in a flat. Can you survey the roof?
Yes, as long as access is agreed. The roof of a block or converted house is often shared, so the building owner or managing agent needs to agree access. We can only inspect what we are given access to.
Can you give me structural calculations?
No. We point out what can be seen, such as sagging or deflection, but we do not carry out calculations or give an engineer’s opinion. If we think you need an engineer, the report says so.
Will you walk on the roof?
Only when it’s safe. Safety comes first, and fragile or steep roofs cannot always be walked on. We use safe viewpoints, the roof space and a drone where applicable, and the report records anything we couldn’t see.
What happens after the survey?
We email you the written report with photographs and recommendations. You can use it to talk to a seller, an insurer, a roofer or a managing agent, whichever applies.
What we look for on each type of roof
Single-ply and EPDM roofs
Because these membranes are thin, patterns from below often show. Reflections from shiny surfaces can affect readings, which we allow for.
GRP fibreglass roofs
Water can get through cracked GRP into the deck. We combine a visual check of cracks with the thermal images around them.
Thermal roof surveys in Highstreet Green: local notes
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. Older houses across Surrey often have handmade clay tiles, and many have tile-hanging. A few of Surrey’s oldest buildings have heavy Horsham stone slab roofs. Older coverings on steep or tall roofs are hard to judge from below, so close-up aerial photos and thermal images help.
Wherever the property is around Highstreet Green, the approach is the same: a careful look and a clear explanation. For any home in Highstreet Green, it’s the small, early fault that is cheapest to put right.

What we do, step by step
When we arrive, we begin with a quick chat about the roof and anything that is worrying you. We then inspect everything that can be seen safely. Most surveys take about 1–2 hours at most homes; commercial roofs usually need 3–4 hours. Cottages and farmhouses around Highstreet Green often have roofs at several levels, with lean-tos and outbuildings attached. Each part is looked at from wherever it can safely be seen, and anything we can’t see is noted.
- First we discuss the roof, any damp and the forecast for the visit.
- The roof is inspected visually from safe positions.
- Thermal images are taken across the roof and, where there’s safe access, in the loft.
- We take moisture readings where the images suggest a problem.
- The report pairs each thermal image with a photo and explains what it suggests.
Preparing for the visit
- Let us know where we can park nearby
- Leave side gates unlocked
- Leave a clear route to the loft

Most bookings start with a short call: phone 07833 053749 or send us an email and we’ll ask a few questions about the roof. The price is agreed before a date is set.
