About our thermal roof survey in Pizien Well
A thermal imaging roof survey uses a thermal camera to show differences in surface temperature across a roof. Those patterns can point to trapped moisture, missing insulation or heat escaping. The camera doesn’t see water itself, so findings are checked with moisture readings. Thermal imaging is included in our Premium Survey, from £400. The report also notes the conditions on the day, since they affect what the camera can show. We survey insulated roof spaces, loft conversions and pitched roof slopes, and common reasons people get in touch are leaks far from where the stain appears and areas losing heat at the eaves and junctions.
In a village or hamlet like Pizien Well, roofs can be steep, old and hard to see from the lane. Close-up drone photos and thermal images help show what cannot be reached safely. Both the forecast and the airspace are checked first, and the journey is planned in advance. Older roofs with steep slopes and tall chimneys are where the extra view helps most.
The report records the roof as we found it on the day. That makes it useful now and a handy reference later, for instance when you want to check whether anything has changed.

Flying and imaging in Pizien Well
About 3.5 miles west lies Old Soar Manor, a reminder of how long the area around Pizien Well has been built on. Older homes in the wider area frequently have features worth a closer look, such as lead valleys, tall stacks and roofs that have been patched over the years, and any change of roofing material on a listed home needs checking with the council first. If the drone is used for your survey, the flight is checked against the Drone Safety Map first.
For an older house near a landmark such as Church of St John the Baptist, older roofs can be steep and hard to see from the street, which is where close-up aerial shots and thermal images help. If you look after a building such as Wateringbury Church of England Primary School, a drone or thermal camera can show a large roof in a single visit.
Pizien Well is about 6 miles west of Maidstone, in Kent. Pizien Well is one of many places we visit across Kent, for houses, flats and commercial buildings. Pizien Well is one of the towns and villages in Kent we cover for thermal roof surveys. Maidstone is in our area too.

What you can safely check yourself
What you can’t do safely is get up close. Roofs are fragile and slippery. That part is for a survey, using safe viewpoints and a drone where it applies.
Keep a simple record: dates of leaks, photos from ground level and any work done on the roof. Share it with us when you book, as it helps us focus the survey.
Your questions about thermal roof surveys in Pizien Well
Do you carry out roof surveys in Pizien Well?
Yes. Our area covers London and South East England, and Pizien Well is part of that. You can ring 07833 053749 or send us an email with the address and a few details, and we’ll talk through which survey suits.
Do you cover smaller places like Pizien Well?
Yes, Pizien Well is covered. Our area covers London and South East England, and smaller places are part of that. The journey is planned ahead, so it’s useful to know about access.
Can you inspect my roof with a drone?
Where it helps and the rules allow, yes. We hold a CAA Flyer ID and Operator ID and fly a drone under 250g, and every flight depends on the airspace and the weather.
Do you climb onto every roof?
Not always. Safety comes first, and fragile or steep roofs can’t always be walked on. Safe viewpoints, the loft and a drone where it applies let us see the rest.
How does a thermal imaging roof survey work?
The images show how warm or cool each part of the surface is. Differences can suggest wet areas, missing insulation or heat loss, which we then check with moisture readings.
Does thermal imaging work on slate and tile roofs?
It can be useful, though pitched roofs are typically 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 is safe access.
Do you survey roofs on blocks of flats?
Yes, once whoever controls the roof agrees access. We look at the parts we are given access to.

What happens if roof problems are left?
If a big flat roof may need replacing, knowing the wet areas first is useful. Thermal imaging, checked with moisture readings, gives a clearer picture before you commit. Matching old materials, such as handmade tiles or stone slates, can take time to source. Spotting a problem early leaves room to find them.
Thermal roof survey starts from £400, including VAT. What you pay depends on the size and height of the roof, how it can safely be seen and the package you choose.

For landlords and managing agents
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.
Letting agents and landlords in Pizien Well book surveys as well as homeowners. The report gives you a dated record of the roof, with photographs, which helps you plan work between tenancies.
How the survey works
We photograph the roof as we go, so the report shows exactly what we saw. Close-ups come from the safest viewpoint available. A typical visit takes between one and two hours for a house, and about three to four hours for a commercial roof. In a small place like Pizien Well, access is normally 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 talk through the roof, any damp or leaks, and the weather expected on the day.
- We check the roof from ground level, from windows and from the roof itself where it is safe.
- Thermal images are taken to show differences in surface temperature.
- Any patterns of interest are checked with moisture readings where we can reach them.
- You get a report with thermal images, photographs and our recommendations.
How to prepare
- If it is not your property yet, arrange access through the agent
- Jot down any questions you want answered
- Tell us about any leaks, stains or damp patches you know of
How to book
We survey roofs seven days a week. To find a date that works for you, call 07833 053749 or send us an email with the address and the days you’d prefer.

When you need someone else
Without opening up the roof, some things stay hidden, so a survey has limits:
- A formal energy assessment
- Hidden layers that need to be opened up to check
- Structural calculations, which need a structural engineer
