What a thermal roof survey does not cover

It is useful to know what a survey won’t do before you book:

  • Readings unaffected by sun, shade or reflections
  • What’s inside walls or under coverings, without opening up
  • Insulation values or heat loss calculations

If in doubt, phone 07833 053749 or email us and we’ll suggest the right survey before booking. What our survey covers.

Thermal roof surveys for homes and businesses in The Mint

Thermal imaging is a useful tool, but it has limits. It shows surface temperature, and things like sun, shade, reflections and wind all affect the readings. We back up the images with moisture readings and a careful look at the roof. Our report says plainly what the camera picked up and how sure we can be. If a finding cannot be confirmed, the report suggests a next step. Typical surveys look at gaps in loft insulation and patches of heat loss across the roof, on pitched roof slopes, loft conversions and flat roofs.

Villages like The Mint often stand in open country, where wind can be strong. Strong wind or a downpour stops a small drone flying, and calm conditions also suit thermal imaging best. The visit is planned around the forecast, along with the journey and access. If the day turns windy or wet, the visit can be moved.

Pictures do a lot of the work in our reports, because a photo of a cracked flashing says more than a paragraph. Anything out of sight on the day is listed as such.

How the survey changes by roof type

Felt and asphalt flat roofs

Felt and asphalt roofs often show wet areas as patches that differ from the rest. Moisture readings are used to check them.

Parapets, valleys and junctions

Damp at junctions can be hard to see by eye. A careful visual inspection goes alongside the images.

What we are asked to look at in The Mint

On big commercial and residential flat roofs, thermal imaging helps owners plan. It can suggest which areas may be wet and which seem dry, so we know where to take moisture readings.

Things that often lead to a survey include:

  • Wet insulation beneath the membrane
  • Gaps in loft insulation
  • Areas losing heat at the eaves and junctions
  • Leaks that are hard to trace

If your home is one of the older ones in the streets near Hope Church, tall stacks and steep slopes are easier to judge with close-up aerial photos than from the pavement.

What to check before booking

  • When you’ll get the report
  • Which limits apply to the survey
  • Whether they hold professional indemnity and public liability insurance
  • Whether the price includes VAT

What’s in a roof survey

Why act early in The Mint

Trapped water can harm decks, timbers and ceilings the longer it stays. Looking now, while the damage may still be limited, keeps more options open. Outbuildings and barns around The Mint are easy to forget, but a failed roof there can spoil what’s stored inside. It is worth including them in a survey before a winter does the damage.

Every price we give includes VAT. Our price is from £400, including VAT. We confirm the exact price before booking.

Why book with us

  • A sub-250g drone, flown with a CAA Flyer ID and Operator ID
  • Independent findings on the roof’s condition
  • Two decades and more of roof surveys
  • Thermal imaging and drones used where they help

What affects the price in The Mint

Prices vary from roof to roof, for these reasons:

  • How complicated the roof is, with its valleys, chimneys and parapets
  • The roof’s overall size
  • Which survey package you book
  • If the survey needs thermal imaging or a drone

Prices quoted always include VAT, and the report is not charged as an extra. Our price is from £400, including VAT. Where your roof sits in the range depends on its size, height and access.

Helping us price your survey

Getting the details right at the start saves time. Please include:

  • The style of property, from a terrace to a block
  • How the loft is reached, if there is one
  • Why you want a survey: buying, a leak, a storm or new work
  • Dates you are working to, such as exchange

Booking is simple: just call 07833 053749 or drop us an email, tell us about the property and we will point you to the right survey. We confirm the price before anything is booked.

What a thermal roof survey looks like in The Mint

Some Hampshire villages still have thatched roofs. Older houses in the South East often have slate or clay tile roofs, while many later estates have concrete tiles. A drone or thermal camera adds most on the steep, tall and hidden parts of roofs like these. If the drone is used for your survey, the flight is checked against the Drone Safety Map first.

For site and facilities teams at buildings such as Liss Junior School, thermal images can show where wet insulation sits under a big flat roof.

The Mint is about 4 miles north-east of Petersfield, in Hampshire. From houses to flats and shops in The Mint, the roof can be surveyed. We cover towns and villages across Hampshire, from the larger towns to small villages. You can also see our page for Portsmouth.

What happens on the day

It helps to start with what’s prompted the survey: a purchase, a leak, a storm, new work or simply peace of mind. That way we can focus on what matters to you. The visit usually takes between one and two hours for most houses, and more on a big or complicated roof. In a small place like The Mint, access is usually the main thing to plan. Let us know about outbuildings, past repairs and any leaks you’ve noticed. Visits can be on weekdays, Saturdays or Sundays.

  1. You tell us about the roof and any damp, leaks or cold rooms.
  2. The weather and surface conditions are recorded.
  3. A full inspection and thermal imaging are carried out together.
  4. We back up the thermal patterns with moisture readings.
  5. You get the report the same day, with an in-person consultation to follow.

Advice

Your questions about thermal roof surveys in The Mint

Does a conservation area affect roof work in The Mint?

Historic England’s list shows listed buildings, and the local council can tell you about conservation areas. If a home is listed, changes that affect its special interest need listed building consent, and in a conservation area re-roofing in different materials may need permission.

Will you come out to The Mint?

Yes, The Mint is on our map. Villages and rural addresses get the same survey as a town house, with the route planned beforehand.

Do I need to be at home?

That depends on the survey. For inside areas and the loft space, someone has to give us access; we will agree the details as you book.

How long have you been surveying roofs?

More than 5,000 surveys over 20+ years.

Is this an asbestos survey?

No. Asbestos surveys and sampling are not something we do. Where a material might contain it, such as old cement sheets on a building from before 2000, the report flags it, with a recommendation to have a specialist asbestos surveyor check before it is disturbed.

What happens next?

The report arrives by email. With Standard there is a follow-up consultation; with Premium, an in-person consultation, so you can talk the findings through.

How do I book a survey in The Mint?
