Thermal roof survey in Tattenham Corner: what you get
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. You can talk the findings through with us at the in-person consultation. There is a 12-month follow-up as well. If you’re worried about missing or slipped insulation and cold areas below the roof, we can find out what’s behind it.
In a village or hamlet like Tattenham Corner, roofs can be steep, old and hard to see from the lane. A drone and a thermal camera each give a view you cannot get from the ground. Weather and airspace are checked before the visit. Steep slopes and tall chimney stacks are where a close-up view adds the most.
The report is yours to share with whoever needs it: your solicitor, the seller, your insurer, a roofer or the building’s managing agent, whichever applies.

FAQs for Tattenham Corner
Do you cover smaller places like Tattenham Corner?
Yes, smaller places are covered as well as towns. We work right across London and South East England. Just mention lanes, gates or anything else about the route as you book.
How do I find out if my home in Tattenham Corner 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.
Is this an asbestos survey?
No. Asbestos surveys and testing are not part of what we do. We flag materials that could contain asbestos, like cement sheets or soffits on pre-2000 buildings.
What’s the best way to book?
To arrange a survey, phone 07833 053749 or use the contact form with the address, the type of property and what’s prompted the survey. We will confirm the price and agree a day with you.
Is it a structural engineer’s report?
No. We point out what can be seen, like sagging or deflection, but we’re not structural engineers and don’t carry out calculations. Where an engineer is needed, we say so in the report.
Can thermal imaging show missing insulation?
The camera can point to heat loss and gaps in insulation. We do not give energy ratings or heat loss calculations, but the report shows where to look more closely.
How many surveys have you done?
More than 5,000 surveys over 20+ years.
What happens on the day
We do not take risks to get a closer look. We inspect everything that’s safely in view, and if part of the roof can’t be seen, the report says so. Most visits take an hour or two for most homes, plus time to check any thermal findings with moisture readings. In a small place like Tattenham Corner, access is typically 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 start by discussing the roof, any signs of damp and how the weather may affect the images.
- We carry out a visual inspection of the roof from wherever it can be seen safely.
- Thermal images are taken to show differences in surface temperature.
- We check the patterns that stand out with moisture readings where there is safe access.
- The report sets out the images, what they suggest and what we recommend.
How to prepare
- For a flat or shared roof, check access with the building owner or managing agent
- If it isn’t your property yet, arrange access through the agent
- Dig out any old roof reports or invoices

Advice
What we are asked to look at in Tattenham Corner
Buyers sometimes want more than a visual look at the roof. A Premium Survey adds thermal imaging, a drone inspection where applicable and a same-day report, which suits a purchase that is moving quickly.
People typically book a survey after spotting something like this:
- Cold spots on ceilings under the roof
- Gaps in loft insulation
- Wet areas near outlets and upstands
- Damp that repairs haven’t cured
Shop and office owners around The Ashley Centre may find that large commercial roofs are often easiest to see by drone or thermal camera.
Before you book any roof surveyor
- Is there a chance to talk the report through?
- Will they check the loft as well as the outside?
- What’s outside the scope of the survey
- What exactly goes into their report
Rented homes, blocks and businesses
Where a roof is shared: access has to be agreed with whoever owns or manages the building. Let us know about it when you book and we’ll plan the survey around it.
Businesses and commercial landlords can book us too, from shops and offices to industrial units. Larger roofs take longer.

Why act early in Tattenham Corner
Without thermal imaging, the only way to see how far water has spread is often to open up the roof. It helps when deciding whether to patch an area or replace the roof. In a place like Tattenham Corner, a barn or garage roof left to fail puts whatever is inside at risk. It is worth including them in a survey before a winter does the damage.

Before and after the survey
Here are a few things we’d tell any owner:
- Photograph damp patches with the date
- Clear a path to the loft hatch before we arrive
- Keep a record of when stains appear
- Check outlets after heavy rain

Watch for new damp patches on ceilings beneath the roof. Early action keeps insulation from staying wet.
Thermal roof surveys in Tattenham Corner: local notes
If the drone is used for your survey, the flight is checked against the Drone Safety Map first. With Fitznells Manor about 3 miles north, Tattenham Corner sits in an area with a long building history. Older roofs in the wider area can hide decades of patch repairs, so the detail matters, and a listed home or one in a conservation area may need consent for changes of material.
Anyone responsible for a site like Epsom Downs Primary School and Children's Centre will know that thermal images can show where wet insulation sits under a big flat roof. If your home is one of the older ones in the streets near St Mark, older roofs can be steep and hard to see from the street, which is where aerial photos and thermal images help.

How the survey changes by roof type
Loft insulation
In the roof space, the camera can pick up gaps and thin areas of insulation. We inspect the loft where it can be reached safely.
Parapets, valleys and junctions
When valley or parapet gutters overflow, water can get into walls and ceilings. Thermal images, checked with moisture readings, can help trace it.
