How a thermal roof survey works in Middle Wallop

We present each thermal image next to a normal photo of the same area, so it’s easy to see which part of the roof each one shows. We explain what each pattern may mean, what the moisture readings found and what we recommend. With a Premium Survey, the report reaches you the same day. If you have questions, the in-person consultation gives you time to go through them. There’s a 12-month follow-up as well. Common reasons to book are ceilings that feel colder in places and stains that keep coming back, across pitched roof slopes, insulated roof spaces and loft conversions.

In a small place like Middle Wallop, open ground can mean strong wind. A small drone cannot fly safely in strong wind or a downpour, and thermal imaging works best with little wind. We plan the journey, access and timing around the weather. If the day turns windy or wet, the visit can be moved.

Every survey ends with a written report, with photos, emailed to you. It sets out the condition of the roof, any defects and our written recommendations.

Thermal roof surveys around Middle Wallop

An older home may be listed, or stand in a conservation area. Historic England’s list shows listed buildings, and the council can say whether a street is in a conservation area. In either case, a change of roofing material may need consent. Where the drone is part of the survey, the flight is checked against the Drone Safety Map first.

If you look after a building such as Wallop Primary School, big roofs are where close-up aerial shots and thermal images show the most at once. If your home is one of the older ones in the streets near Church of St Andrew, steep roofs, tall chimneys and hidden valleys can be hard to see from ground level, and that’s where a view by drone or thermal camera helps.

Surveys for landlords and agents in Middle Wallop

Roof problems in a rented home affect tenants as well as the building. A survey helps you spot issues early and plan the work around your tenants.

An agent can book and manage the survey for a landlord. We agree a time with the tenant beforehand.

The survey, step by step

The visit typically starts outside and finishes in the loft: outside views come first, then the loft space if there’s safe access. All told, expect roughly 1–2 hours for a house; commercial roofs usually need 3–4 hours. Somewhere like Middle Wallop needs a little journey planning: let us know about narrow lanes, gates, long drives and where we can park. The roof is looked at from ground level, from windows, from the loft where there is safe access and from the roof where it is safe.

  1. First we go over the roof, the problem you’ve noticed and the conditions forecast for the visit.
  2. We carry out a visual inspection of the roof from wherever it can safely be seen.
  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. You get a report with thermal images, photographs and our recommendations.

Getting ready for the survey

  • Make sure the loft hatch can be reached
  • Keep pets inside or away from the areas we are looking at
  • Let us know about any leaks, stains or damp patches you know of

Advice

Leave it or get it looked at?

Wet insulation under a flat roof doesn’t dry out on its own while the covering stays on. In time, it stops insulating properly and can damage the deck. Finding them early can mean a smaller job. Around Middle Wallop, older homes often have old roof timbers, and water through a failed covering can rot timber if it is left.

A small, low roof with good viewpoints takes less time than a tall, complicated one, and the package matters as well. We’ll give you the figure before anything is booked.

FAQs for Middle Wallop

Do you cover Middle Wallop?

Yes. We work right across London and South East England, and Middle Wallop is part of that. Just ring 07833 053749 or drop us an email and let us know about the property, and we’ll talk through which survey suits.

Can you tell me if my roof has asbestos?

No. We don’t carry out asbestos surveys or testing. If we see materials that could contain asbestos, like cement roof sheets or soffits on buildings from before 2000, we flag them, and recommend a specialist asbestos surveyor checks them before they’re disturbed.

Does thermal imaging detect leaks directly?

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.

When does the report arrive?

Basic reports arrive within 48 hours, Standard reports in 24–48 hours and Premium reports on the same day. Each one is emailed.

What do I do with the report?

We email you the written report with photos and recommendations. It’s yours to share with a seller, insurer, roofer or managing agent, whichever applies.

How do I book a survey in Middle Wallop?

The quickest way is to call 07833 053749 or email us. Give us the address and some details about the roof, and we’ll take it from there. Surveys run on any day of the week.

What we look for on each type of roof

GRP fibreglass roofs

Glossy GRP can reflect heat. We take that into account and check findings with moisture readings.

Single-ply and EPDM roofs

Many single-ply and EPDM roofs sit on insulation boards. If water gets under them, thermal imaging can suggest which boards are wet.

What this survey can’t tell you

In fairness, a roof survey has limits:

  • Whether the deck or roof structure is strong enough
  • The condition of timbers we cannot see
  • Clear results when the conditions on the day are poor

If in doubt, call 07833 053749 or email us and we’ll recommend the right survey. What a survey covers and does not.

What this survey covers

  • Insulated roof spaces
  • Commercial roofs
  • Flat roofs
  • Loft conversions
  • Pitched roof slopes
  • Ceilings below the roof

What affects the cost of thermal roof surveys

  • The type of building, from a house to a block or an office
  • Extensions, dormers and garages with roofs of their own
  • The size of the roof
  • Whether you choose the Basic, Standard or Premium Survey

Every price we give includes VAT, and the report is not charged as an extra. Thermal roof survey starts from £400, including VAT. Where your roof sits in the range depends on its size, height and access.
