Thermal roof surveys for homes and businesses in Norton Green
Our Premium Survey, from £400, brings together a full roof inspection and thermal imaging. You also get a drone inspection where it applies, structural analysis and a report on the same day. There’s an in-person consultation as well, plus a follow-up 12 months later. To book, just phone 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 survey commercial roofs, flat roofs and pitched roof slopes, and common reasons people get in touch are heat escaping through the roof and cold areas below the roof.
Some older homes in villages like Norton Green are listed or in a conservation area. Neither a drone survey nor a thermal survey involves any work on the roof, so it’s a gentle way to see the condition of an old roof, before anyone decides what work it needs. Changes that affect a listed building’s special interest need listed building consent, so check with the council first.
If any part of the roof couldn’t be seen safely, we say so in the report. That way, it is clear what was covered and what wasn’t.

Why act early in Norton Green
Heat lost through a roof costs money every winter. The camera can point to gaps and thin areas in the insulation, so you know where to put things right. Where a roof is exposed, as many are in small places like Norton Green, driving rain gets into any weakness, and older walls, once damp, take a long time to dry.
Every price we give includes VAT. Our price is from £400, including VAT. We confirm the price for the job before booking.

The survey, step by step
We check the roof from outside and, where it’s relevant and there’s safe access, from inside the roof space too. In the loft, the signs we look for are staining, damp, daylight and sagging, as far as the space allows. All in, the survey normally takes about one to two hours at most homes, while a commercial roof takes nearer three to four hours. In a small place like Norton Green, access is usually the main thing to plan. Let us know about outbuildings, past repairs and any leaks you’ve noticed. Weekday and weekend visits are available.
- We go through the roof, the problem and the weather expected on the day.
- We look over the roof from wherever it is safe.
- Thermal images are taken across the roof and, where there is 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 the survey
- If you are buying, check with the agent that we can get in
- Check the loft hatch can be reached
- Have any questions written down, so nothing gets missed

What a thermal roof survey does not cover
Without opening up the roof, some things stay hidden, and that sets some limits:
- A structural engineer’s assessment
- Readings unaffected by sun, shade or reflections
- Seeing water directly, as the camera shows temperature, not moisture
If in doubt, call 07833 053749 or send us an email and we’ll recommend the right survey before booking. What a survey covers and doesn’t.

How we price thermal roof surveys
What a survey costs depends on the time and equipment it needs. That comes down to:
- The number of roofs, including extensions and garages
- How complicated the roof is, with its valleys, chimneys and parapets
- Any need for thermal images or a drone flight
- Which survey package you book
One thing that affects the price is the package: from £150 for Basic, £250 for Standard and £400 for Premium, inc. VAT. The roof’s size, height and access matter as well.
What we need to know
You don’t need to know any roofing terms. Just tell us:
- Access details, such as a loft hatch or a shared roof
- Photos of the roof, taken safely from the ground or a window
- Why you want a survey: buying, a leak, a storm or new work
- Your postcode, so we can check access and travel

Norton Green questions
How do I find out if my home in Norton Green is listed?
Historic England’s list shows listed buildings, and the local council can tell you about conservation areas. Listed building consent is needed for changes that affect a listed building’s special interest, and conservation areas can limit changes of roofing material.
Do you cover Norton Green?
Yes, Norton Green is one of the places we work. The survey and report are the same in Norton Green as anywhere else, and visits run on weekdays and weekends.
Which days do you carry out surveys?
We survey seven days a week: Monday to Friday, Saturdays and Sundays. Let us know which days suit you as you book.
What do I do with the report?
You will receive the report by email, and what you do next is up to you: use it with a seller, an insurer, a roofer or a managing agent.
Does the weather affect a thermal survey?
Conditions on the day have a big effect on what the camera can show. A dry surface, little wind and a sunny spell beforehand help most. Our report notes the conditions and how they affected the findings.
How fast do I get the report?
Each package has its own report time. Basic: within 48 hours. Standard: 24 to 48 hours. Premium: the same day. Mention any deadline when you book.
How experienced are you?
We have more than 20 years’ experience and have carried out more than 5,000 surveys.
Surveys for landlords and agents in Norton Green
Buyers’ agents can book surveys on behalf of their clients. Reports are emailed, so they’re easy to pass on, photos included.
Roof problems in a rented home affect tenants as well as the building. A survey shows what needs attention, so you can plan the work around your tenants.
What you can safely check yourself
After heavy rain, check ceilings and the tops of walls for new stains. Take a photo and write down when you saw it, as it helps a surveyor trace the cause.
A DIY look is useful, but it isn’t a survey. You will not see flashings, valleys or the backs of chimneys properly from the ground, and those are details a survey looks at closely.
Flying and imaging in Norton Green
Norton Green lies within about 1 mile 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. About 4.9 miles south-east lies Mottistone Manor, a reminder of how long the area around Norton Green has been built on. Period homes nearby can have lead valleys, tall chimneys and a patchwork of past repairs.
For site and facilities teams at buildings like All Saints Church of England Primary School, big roofs are where photos from the air and thermal images show the most at once. If you run a hotel or guest house in or near Norton Green, a roof problem can mean rooms out of use, so it pays to find faults before guests do. Take an older house close to All Saints' Church: thin or patchy insulation under an old roof often shows up clearly on a thermal image.
