Roof by roof

Felt and asphalt flat roofs

On felt and asphalt flat roofs, wet insulation can show as a temperature difference across the surface. Moisture readings are used to check them.

Parapets, valleys and junctions

Junctions where roofs meet walls, parapets and valleys are common places for water to get in. Thermal imaging can help show damp patterns around them.

Thermal roof surveys for homes and businesses in Trumps Green

Thermal imaging works best in the right conditions. A sunny day before the survey, a dry roof surface and little wind all help. Rain, wind and cloud can all make the patterns weaker. We talk through the forecast as you book, and the report explains how the conditions on the day affected the results. If you’ve noticed damp patches with no obvious cause and leaks far from where the stain appears, we can find out what’s behind it, whatever the roof.

In a village or hamlet like Trumps Green, 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 ground level. Both the forecast and the airspace are checked first, and the journey is planned beforehand. Steep slopes and tall chimney stacks are where a close-up view adds the most.

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.

Leave it or get it looked at?

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, instead of trying repair after repair. Older and listed buildings around Trumps Green may need consent and matching materials for repairs, so a defect found early gives time to plan the work properly.

Prices start from £150, with VAT included, for a Basic Survey. Standard is from £250 and Premium from £400. We confirm the exact price before booking.

What you get with us

  • Insured for professional indemnity and public liability
  • 5,000+ surveys completed
  • Photographs and a written report every time
  • Over 20 years’ experience

Thermal roof surveys around Trumps Green

Where the drone is part of the survey, the flight is checked against the Drone Safety Map first. With Botleys Mansion about 2.2 miles south-east, Trumps Green sits in an area with a long building history. Older homes in the wider area often 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 yours is one of the older homes in the streets near Christ Church, steep roofs, tall chimneys and hidden valleys can be hard to see from ground level, and that’s where a view by drone or thermal camera helps.

Tips from our surveys

Small things make a difference, both for the survey and for the roof itself. Some pointers:

  • Keep dated photos of any marks on ceilings
  • Move stored items away from the loft hatch
  • Check from ground level or a window, never by climbing
  • Talk to us about the weather when booking

After the visit, we put the thermal images, photographs and moisture readings into one report. Each image is explained in plain words, with our recommendations. With a Premium Survey, you get the report the same day.

Check loft insulation covers the whole area and hasn’t been disturbed. Gaps often appear after work in the loft.

Rented homes, blocks and businesses

We survey roofs for landlords and letting agents as well as homeowners. The report gives you a dated record of the roof, with photographs, useful for planning maintenance.

A roof problem in a let property affects your tenants as well as the building. A survey helps you spot issues early and plan the work.

Questions from Trumps Green

Do you cover smaller places like Trumps Green?

Yes, we do. We survey roofs across London and the South East, and smaller places are part of that. Longer journeys are simply planned beforehand.

Do you cover Trumps Green?

Yes, Trumps Green is within the area we cover. We survey roofs across London and the South East. You can phone 07833 053749 or send us an email with the address and a few details.

Can thermal imaging show missing insulation?

The camera can point to heat loss and gaps in insulation. The survey is not an energy rating or a heat loss calculation, but the images show where improvements may help.

Is it the same as a RICS Level 2 or Level 3 survey?

No. We are experienced roof surveyors, and our survey covers the roof rather than the whole building. For the rest of the building, a RICS home survey is a separate job.

How much does a thermal roof survey cost?

It comes with our Premium Survey, which starts from £400. The Premium Survey also covers a full inspection, drone inspection where it applies, structural analysis and a report on the same day.

Do you carry professional indemnity insurance?

We are covered by professional indemnity and public liability insurance.

Will you walk on the roof?

Not always. Some roofs are too steep or fragile to walk on safely. We use safe viewpoints, the roof space and a drone where applicable, and the report records anything we couldn’t see.

When to book a survey in Trumps Green

Unexplained damp is one of the main reasons people ask for thermal imaging. Water can travel under a roof covering or along timbers before it shows inside. Temperature patterns can help narrow down where to look.

Here are some of the things we see frequently:

  • Gaps in loft insulation
  • Water that travels before it shows
  • Ceilings that feel colder in places
  • Damp patches with no obvious cause

If you look after a building such as Trumps Green Infant School, a drone or thermal camera can show a large roof in a single visit.

Before you book any roof surveyor

  • Whether the price includes VAT
  • How long they’ve been surveying roofs
  • What they will not be able to tell you
  • Their drone registration, if they fly one

What to expect from a roof survey

What we do, step by step

There isn’t much for you to do on the day. Show us any stains, drips or problem areas you know about, and we’ll get on with the inspection. The survey itself takes about 1–2 hours at a typical home, with bigger or more complicated roofs taking longer. In a small place like Trumps Green, 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. We check the conditions and note how they may affect the images.
  3. A full inspection and thermal imaging are carried out together.
  4. Moisture readings are used to check what the camera shows.
  5. You get the report the same day, with an in-person consultation to follow.

Getting ready for the survey

  • Show us where any leaks or stains appear
  • If it isn’t your property yet, arrange access through the agent
  • Mention any parking restrictions on your street
