Thermal roof survey in Thursley: what you get
Thermal imaging is part of our Premium Survey, which starts from £400. It also includes a drone inspection where applicable, a structural analysis and a same-day report. There is 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. If you’ve noticed damp around chimneys and parapets and stains that keep coming back, a survey will tell you what’s going on, whatever the roof.
Some older homes in villages like Thursley are listed or in a conservation area. Neither a drone survey nor a thermal survey involves any work on the roof, which suits a building where any change needs care. Changes that affect a listed building’s special interest need listed building consent, so check with the council first.
What you get is a clear record of the roof on the day we saw it. That makes it useful now and a handy reference later, such as when you want to compare after future work.

FAQs for Thursley
Do you carry out roof surveys in Thursley?
Yes, Thursley is one of the places we work. The survey and report are the same in Thursley as anywhere else.
Is Thursley within the area you cover?
Yes, we do. We work right across London and the South East, from towns to the smallest villages. The journey is planned ahead, so it is useful to know about access.
Do you take photos of the roof?
Yes. Photographs are taken throughout the survey, and they go into the written report.
Do you climb onto every roof?
Not always. Safety comes first, and fragile or steep roofs can’t always be walked on. We use safe viewpoints, the roof space and a drone where it applies, and the report records anything we couldn’t see.
How do I arrange a thermal roof survey in Thursley?
The quickest way is to ring 07833 053749 or use the contact form. Tell us the address and a little about the roof. We survey on weekdays, Saturdays and Sundays.
Do you survey roofs on blocks of flats?
Yes, once access has been agreed. The roof of a block or converted house is frequently shared, so we need permission from the freeholder or managing agent. We can only inspect what we are given access to.
Will the survey show heat loss through my roof?
The camera can point to heat loss and gaps in insulation. We don’t give energy ratings or heat loss calculations, but the images show where improvements may help.
How we price thermal roof surveys
When we price a survey, we consider:
- How many separate roofs there are, like extensions, dormers and garages
- Roof area
- How tall the building is and how easy the roof is to see
- Features like valleys, chimneys, dormers and parapets
A small, low roof with good viewpoints takes less time than a tall, complicated one, and the package you pick makes a difference too. We’ll give you the figure before anything is booked.
What to let us know when you contact us
When you call or email, these details help:
- Any photos you have, taken from the ground or a window
- How the loft is reached, if there is one
- Dates you are working to, such as exchange
- What made you get in touch
Most bookings start with a short call: ring 07833 053749 or drop us an email. You’ll have a price before anything is arranged.
How the survey changes by roof type
Pitched slate and tile roofs
From inside the loft, the camera can help with damp around chimneys, valleys and roof windows. We check any patterns with moisture readings.
Single-ply and EPDM roofs
Many single-ply and EPDM roofs sit on insulation boards. Wet boards can show as temperature differences on the images.
Practical tips
Small things make a difference. Some pointers:
- Let us know where and when you’ve seen damp or stains
- File the images with your roof records
- Remember the conditions on the day affect the results
- Check the loft can be reached safely
If the images suggest moisture that cannot be confirmed, we’ll say what would help next, such as electronic leak detection or opening up a small area.
Check that loft insulation is laid evenly and hasn’t been pushed aside. Insulation is often moved when people work in the loft space.
The survey, step by step
Time on site depends on the size and shape of the roof, but as a rough guide the survey takes about one to two hours at a house, including the thermal images, and around 3–4 hours for a commercial roof. You are welcome to ask questions while we are there. Somewhere like Thursley needs a little journey planning: tell us about narrow lanes, gates, long drives and where we can park. The roof is looked at from the ground, from windows, from the loft where there is safe access and from the roof where it is safe.
- You let us know about the roof and any damp, leaks or cold rooms.
- The weather and surface conditions are recorded.
- We inspect the roof and take thermal images during the same visit.
- Moisture readings are used to check what the camera shows.
- The Premium report reaches you the same day, and we go through it with you in person.
Preparing for the visit
- If it isn’t your property yet, arrange access through the agent
- Make a note of anything you’d like us to look at
- Leave a clear route to the loft

Thermal roof surveys around Thursley
In Surrey, older roofs are often handmade clay tile, with tile-hanging on many upper walls. Horsham stone slab roofs survive on some old buildings in Surrey. Many roofs like these can’t be judged properly from the pavement, and that’s where a view from above or a thermal image earns its place. If the drone is used for your survey, the flight is checked against the Drone Safety Map first.
In and around Thursley, as anywhere, a roof is easiest to deal with when its problems are found early.
Thursley is about 5 miles south-east of Farnham, in Surrey. In Thursley, as across Surrey, every roof gets the same careful survey. Across Surrey, we cover Thursley. For surveys nearby, see our Guildford page.

What we’re asked to look at in Thursley
Unexplained damp is one of the main reasons people ask for thermal imaging. A leak may start well away from where the stain appears. The camera helps narrow the search.
We are often asked to look at:
- Areas of a flat roof that may hold water
- Areas losing heat at the eaves and junctions
- Cold spots on ceilings under the roof
- Missing or slipped insulation
For an older house near a landmark like Church of St Michael and All Angels, older roofs can be steep and hard to see from the street, which is where aerial photos and thermal images help.
Questions to ask before booking
- Will they check the loft as well as the outside?
- What happens after the report arrives
- What they will not be able to tell you
- How much experience they have with roofs like yours
