Thermal roof surveys in Hungerford: local notes
About 4.3 miles north lies Breamore House, a reminder of how long the area around Hungerford has been built on. Older homes in the wider area often have features worth a closer look, such as lead valleys, tall stacks and roofs that have been patched over the years, and the council can say whether a home is in a conservation area. If the drone is used for your survey, the flight is checked against the Drone Safety Map first.
Take a building like Hyde Church of England Primary School: thermal images can show where wet insulation sits under a big flat roof. Take an older house close to Church of the Holy Ascension: thin or patchy insulation under an old roof often shows up clearly on a thermal image.

Thermal roof survey in Hungerford: what you get
Our thermal survey records how the surface temperature varies across your roof. Those patterns can point to trapped moisture, missing insulation or heat escaping. It is important to know that the camera shows temperature, not water, so findings are checked 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. We are frequently asked to look into leaks far from where the stain appears and areas losing heat at the eaves and junctions, across commercial roofs, ceilings below the roof and loft conversions.
In a small place like Hungerford, open ground can mean strong wind. A small drone can’t 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. If the day turns windy or wet, the visit can be moved.
The Standard Survey adds moisture detection, a structural check and a follow-up consultation. The Premium Survey adds thermal imaging, drone inspection where it applies, structural analysis and an in-person consultation.

Hungerford questions
Will you come out to Hungerford?
Yes. Hungerford is within the area we cover, which takes in towns, villages and rural addresses. We work right across London and South East England. Just mention lanes, gates or anything else about the route when booking.
Do you carry out roof surveys in Hungerford?
Yes. Our area covers London and the South East, and Hungerford is part of that. Just call 07833 053749 or use the contact form and let us know about the property, and we’ll talk through which survey suits.
Does thermal imaging work on slate and tile roofs?
It can be useful, though pitched roofs are usually harder to read. Slates and tiles over a ventilated space can mask what’s below, so we also look from the loft where it is safe.
How fast do I get the report?
It depends on the package: the Basic Survey report arrives within 48 hours, the Standard Survey in 24 to 48 hours and the Premium Survey the same day. The report is emailed to you.
Can you check my loft insulation with a thermal camera?
It can show temperature patterns that point to missing or thin insulation. It shows most clearly when it’s warm inside and cold outside. Where we can reach the loft safely, we check there too.
Do I have to be there for the survey?
If the survey includes the loft or the inside of the building, someone needs to let us in. Access is agreed with you when booking.
Do you climb onto every roof?
Only if it’s safe. We check everything that can safely be seen: from the ground, from windows and vantage points, from the loft space, from the roof itself where safe and by drone where applicable. Anything we cannot see is noted in the report.
Honest limits
To be straight with you, a roof survey has limits:
- Hidden layers that need to be opened up to check
- An energy rating for the building
- Proving moisture from the images alone
If you are not sure which survey you need, ring 07833 053749 or send us an email and we’ll give you a straight answer. The full list of what we check.
What we check
- Pitched roof slopes
- Commercial roofs
- Insulated roof spaces
- Loft conversions
- Flat roofs
- Ceilings below the roof
The survey, step by step
We will ask a few questions first, such as when any problem began and what work has been done before. Then the inspection itself takes an hour or two for most homes, plus time to check any thermal findings with moisture readings. Older rural homes like those around Hungerford can have a main roof, lower lean-to roofs and outbuildings all joined together. We work round each section in turn, from the safest viewpoints.
- 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.
- Moisture readings are used to check what the camera shows.
- The Premium report reaches you the same day, and we go through it with you in person.
Before the survey
- For flats, make sure roof access has been agreed
- Make sure pets are kept safely away
- Have keys ready for side gates, garages or roof access doors
Book a survey
Booking is simple: just phone 07833 053749 or use the contact form and give us a few details about the property and we will explain which survey suits. The price is agreed up front.

Why act early in Hungerford
Without thermal imaging, the only way to see how far water has spread is frequently to open up the roof. It helps when deciding whether to patch an area or replace the roof. For an older or listed building in a place like Hungerford, repairs may need matching materials and consent, so a defect found early gives time to plan the work properly.
Prices start from £150, including VAT, for a Basic Survey. The Standard Survey starts from £250 and the Premium Survey from £400, both including VAT. You’ll know the exact price before booking.

Tips that help
A survey works best with a little help from you, before and after. Tips:
- Heat the home normally on the days before
- File the images with your roof records
- Note where damp appears and after what weather
- Check the loft can be reached safely
If you’re buying, the report gives you specific points to raise with the seller or agent. What you do with it is up to you, whether that is asking for work or discussing the price.
Check that loft insulation is laid evenly and hasn’t been pushed aside. Insulation is often moved when people work in the roof space.
What you can safely check yourself
It is useful to keep a record: when leaks happen, ground-level photos and any past roof work. Send it with your enquiry and it will help the survey.
Look up at the roof after a storm, from ground level: broken slates or tiles in the garden, gaps along the ridge or loose lead are signs to note. Leave anything above ground level to a survey.
