Thermal imaging roof survey in Oakley Green, Windsor and Maidenhead
We take a careful look at the roof at your property in Oakley Green, with photographs and a written report.
- Stains that keep coming back
- Damp around roof outlets and upstands
- Cold areas below the roof
Different roofs, different checks
GRP fibreglass roofs
Cracks in GRP can let water into the boards beneath. We combine a visual check of cracks with the thermal images around them.
Loft insulation
The difference is clearest when the home is heated and it’s cold out. Our report notes how the conditions affected the images.
Thermal roof surveys for homes and businesses in Oakley Green
Your report sets out the thermal images alongside ordinary photos, 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. A follow-up 12 months later is included too. If you are worried about patches of heat loss across the roof and cold areas below the roof, we can find out what’s behind it.
Somewhere as small as Oakley Green, older roofs are often steep and partly hidden by trees or outbuildings. A drone and a thermal camera each give a view you cannot get from ground level. Weather and airspace are checked before the visit, and the journey is planned ahead of time. Older roofs with steep slopes and tall chimneys are where the extra view helps most.
Every survey ends with a written report, with photographs, emailed to you. It explains the condition of the roof, the defects we found and what we recommend.

Why act early in Oakley Green
Repeated repairs that do not stop a leak are a sign the source hasn’t been traced. Thermal imaging with moisture readings can help narrow it down, rather than more guesswork. In a place like Oakley Green, a barn or garage roof left to fail puts whatever is inside at risk. It’s worth including them in a survey before a winter does the damage.
Prices start from £400, including VAT. Basic starts from £150, Standard from £250 and Premium from £400, VAT included, and we can help you choose.

Yes, Oakley Green is on our map. A small place gets exactly the same survey as a big one.

How long does the survey take?
It normally takes between one and two hours at a typical home, though large, tall or awkward roofs take more time. The report follows by email.
The survey, step by step
Expect us to ask a few questions before we start, about the roof’s history, any leaks and past repairs. The inspection then takes about 1–2 hours for most houses, or half a day or so for a commercial building. Older roofs in small places like Oakley Green can have low, tight loft spaces, so it helps to know whether there is a loft hatch and how easy it is to reach. We only go where it is safe.
- We start with the roof, its history and any signs of damp or heat loss.
- The weather and surface conditions are recorded.
- We inspect the roof and take thermal images during the same visit.
- We back up the thermal patterns with moisture readings.
- You get the report the same day, with an in-person consultation to follow.
Getting ready for the survey
- Make sure the loft hatch can be reached
- If it is not your property yet, arrange access through the agent
- Point out any leaks or damp patches
Booking a survey
We survey roofs on any day of the week. To find a date that works for you, phone 07833 053749 or use the contact form.

Before and after the survey
Getting the most from a thermal roof survey starts before we arrive and carries on afterwards. Some tips:
- Move stored items away from the loft hatch
- Clear leaves from outlets and gutters each autumn
- Keep the heating on as usual before a heat loss survey
- Check from ground level or a window, never by climbing
If the images suggest moisture that can’t be confirmed, we will say what would help next, for instance electronic leak detection or a roofer opening up a small section.
Consider a repeat survey after major work on the roof in suitable weather.
What a thermal roof survey looks like in Oakley Green
With St Leonard's Hill about 1 mile south-east, Oakley Green sits in an area with a long building history. On older houses around here, roofs often carry the marks of earlier repairs, from replaced slates to new lead, and the council can say whether a home is in a conservation area. Across the South East, older homes tend to have slate or clay tiles, and many later ones concrete tiles, and flat-roofed additions turn up almost everywhere. Steep or complicated roofs are often hard to see from ground level, which is where aerial photos and thermal images help.
If you look after a building such as Alexander First School, a view from above covers a wide roof far faster than walking it. If yours is one of the older homes in the streets near All Saints, older roofs can be steep and hard to see from the street, which is where photos from the air and thermal images help.

What affects the cost of thermal roof surveys
The price reflects the time and kit the roof needs. That comes down to:
- The use of thermal imaging or a drone
- Roof area
- Commercial roofs and larger buildings
- Height and safe access
Price depends partly on the package: Basic from £150, Standard from £250 or Premium from £400, all inc. VAT. The roof’s size, height and access matter as well.

- Any stains, drips or damp patches you’ve seen indoors
Our price is from £400, including VAT. What you pay depends on the roof’s size, access and the package, so ring 07833 053749 or send us an email with the details.
