About our thermal roof survey in Nashes Green
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. Each one comes with an explanation, the moisture readings and our recommendation. Premium reports are sent the same day. If you have questions, the in-person consultation gives you time to go through them. There is a 12-month follow-up as well. Typical surveys look at damp around roof outlets and upstands and areas of a flat roof that may hold water, across commercial roofs, insulated roof spaces and loft conversions.
Somewhere as small as Nashes Green, older roofs are frequently steep and partly hidden by trees or outbuildings. A drone and a thermal camera each give a view you can’t get from the ground. Weather and airspace are checked ahead of the visit. Older roofs with steep slopes and tall chimneys are where the extra view helps most.
The report works through the roof section by section, from the coverings down to the gutters, each with a short note and a photo. It records what’s sound as well as what is not.

The survey, step by step
Every visit follows the same pattern: we listen to what’s been worrying you, inspect the roof from each safe vantage point, photograph what we find and record our findings for the written report. Most visits take about one to two hours for most homes, plus time to check any thermal findings with moisture readings. Cottages and farmhouses around Nashes 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.
- 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.
- Patterns that stand out are checked with moisture readings.
- The report pairs each thermal image with a photo and explains what it suggests.
Before we arrive
- Tell us about any leaks, stains or damp patches you know of
- Clear the way to the loft hatch
- Make a note of anything you’d like us to look at

Advice
Can I check my roof myself?
If you have a loft with safe access, take a look inside. Use a torch and stay on the joists or boards, checking for stains, damp wood or chinks of daylight.
It’s useful to keep a record: when leaks happen, ground-level photos and any past roof work. Share it with us as you book and it will help the survey.

FAQs for Nashes Green
Is drone flying allowed in Nashes Green?
Typically it comes down to two things: the airspace at the address and the weather. Nashes Green is about 2 miles from Lasham Airfield, so the Drone Safety Map is checked for restrictions around it before we fly. High wind or heavy rain also stops a small drone flying, though the rest of the survey goes ahead either way.
Is my home in Nashes Green listed or in a conservation area?
Start with Historic England’s list for listing and your council for conservation areas. It is worth checking before planning roof work, as both can affect what’s allowed.
Are you insured?
We hold professional indemnity and public liability insurance, for every survey we carry out.
Can you use a thermal camera on a sloping roof?
It can be useful, though pitched roofs are usually harder to read. The air space under slates and tiles can hide patterns, so we combine it with an inspection from the loft where there’s safe access.
How do I arrange a thermal roof survey in Nashes Green?
It’s easiest to ring 07833 053749 or send us an email. Let us know the address and a little about the roof, and we’ll point you to the right survey. Surveys run on weekdays and at weekends.
What does the report include?
It works through the roof part by part, in writing and with photos, and ends with what we recommend. Points are put in order of urgency where relevant.
How many surveys have you done?
We have more than 20 years’ experience and have completed over 5,000 surveys.
Leave it or get it looked at?
The longer moisture sits in a roof, the more it can affect timbers and finishes below. Surveying sooner gives you more choice about what to do. In a small place like Nashes Green, homes can be exposed to wind and rain, which finds any gap, and older walls, once damp, take a long time to dry.
Prices start from £150, inc. VAT, for a Basic Survey. The Standard Survey starts from £250 and the Premium Survey from £400. You will know the price for the job before booking.

Useful tips for Nashes Green property owners
Here are a few things we’d tell any owner, before and after a survey:
- Note where damp appears and after what weather
- Keep outlets and gutters clear to stop water sitting
- Do not climb onto the roof to look for leaks yourself
- Keep the heating on as usual before a heat loss survey
Many people send the report to roofers, who can then quote for the areas shown. Each thermal image is matched to a normal photo, so the areas are easy to locate.
Consider a repeat survey after major work on the roof in suitable weather.
How the survey changes by roof type
Felt and asphalt flat roofs
Built-up felt and asphalt roofs can hide trapped water for a long time. Thermal imaging helps suggest where it is, given suitable conditions on the day.
Pitched slate and tile roofs
On pitched roofs, slates and tiles over a ventilated space can mask what’s happening underneath. We combine the images with an inspection from the loft where there’s safe access.
What a thermal roof survey looks like in Nashes Green
A number of Hampshire villages keep thatched roofs on their older buildings. Older houses in the South East frequently have slate or clay tile roofs, while many later estates have concrete tiles. Older coverings on steep or tall roofs are hard to judge from below, so close-up aerial photos and thermal images help. Hall Place, about 3.3 miles south, is one of the historic houses in the wider area around Nashes Green. 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 a listed home or one in a conservation area may need consent for changes of material.
Take an older house close to Church of St. Mary: thin or patchy insulation under an old roof often shows up clearly on a thermal image.
