Weavers Down Thermal Roof Survey

- Wet areas near outlets and upstands
- Damp where roofs meet walls and chimneys
- Leaks far from where the stain appears
Leave it or get it looked at?
Before replacing a large flat roof, it helps to know how much of it is actually wet. Images backed by moisture readings show where problems seem to be before you commit. Outbuildings and barns around Weavers Down are easy to forget, but a failed roof there can spoil what’s stored inside. A quick look before winter can save a lot.
Thermal roof survey starts from £400, including VAT. The final price depends on the size and height of the roof, access and the package you choose.

Thermal roof survey in Weavers Down
Thermal imaging works best in the right conditions. It’s useful to have a sunny day beforehand, a dry surface and calm air. Rain, wind and cloud can all make the patterns weaker. We will discuss the weather with you when booking, and our report notes the conditions and how they affected what we saw. Common reasons to book are water that travels before it shows and areas losing heat at the eaves and junctions, across insulated roof spaces, flat roofs and ceilings below the roof.
Some older homes in villages like Weavers Down are listed or in a conservation area. A look by drone or thermal camera does not touch the roof, which suits a building where any change needs care. Check with the council before planning any work on a listed building or one in a conservation area.
How fast the report arrives depends on the package: the Basic Survey within 48 hours, the Standard Survey in 24 to 48 hours and the Premium Survey on the same day.

Common questions in Weavers Down
Does a conservation area affect roof work in Weavers Down?
We cannot confirm that for you, but Historic England’s list and your council can. Both listing and conservation areas can limit changes of roofing material.
Will you come out to Weavers Down?
We do. Villages and rural addresses get the same survey as a town house, with the route planned beforehand.
Will you photograph what you find?
Yes, plenty. Pictures sit next to the findings they show, so you can see what we mean.
What’s the best way to book?
To book, ring 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.
Can you inspect my roof with a drone?
Where it helps and the rules allow, yes. Our sub-250g drone is flown by a CAA-registered operator with a Flyer ID and Operator ID, and the airspace and weather are checked before every flight.
Do you climb onto every roof?
Only when it’s safe. Safe viewpoints, the roof space and a drone where applicable cover most of what’s needed.
How much does a thermal roof survey cost?
Our Premium Survey, from £400, includes thermal imaging. An in-person consultation and a follow-up 12 months later are included too. For bigger commercial roofs, we quote on size.
What a survey costs
When we price a survey, we consider:
- The shape of the roof and its details
- Which survey package you book
- The use of thermal imaging or a drone
- How big the roof is
One thing that affects the price is the package: Basic from £150, Standard from £250 or Premium from £400, all including VAT. The roof’s size, height and access matter as well.
Getting in touch
When you call or email, these details help:
- How the loft is reached, if there is one
- The property’s address and postcode
- The reason for the survey, such as buying, a leak or storm damage
- Any stains, drips or damp patches you’ve seen indoors
To arrange a survey, phone 07833 053749 or email us and tell us the address and what’s prompted the survey. You’ll know the price before anything is booked.
Practical tips
From years of surveys, a few habits stand out as worth the effort:
- Note where damp appears and after what weather
- Take photos of stains as they appear, so we can compare
- Check from ground level or a window, never by climbing
- Make sure the loft can be reached safely
The report explains the conditions on the day and how they affected the images. That way you know how much weight to give each finding.
After repairs or a new covering, a later survey can confirm things are dry in suitable weather.

If the drone is used for your survey, we check the Drone Safety Map for restrictions before flying.

How the survey works
When we arrive, we start by asking what you’ve noticed and what you need to know. After that, we look at everything we can see safely, using the ground, windows, the loft and a drone where it applies. The survey typically takes an hour or two for most homes, plus time to check any thermal findings with moisture readings. Around Weavers Down, older homes can have small or awkward roof spaces, so let us know about the loft hatch and any ladder. Only areas that can be reached safely are inspected.
- We go through the roof, the problem and the weather expected on the day.
- We look over the roof from wherever it is safe.
- Thermal images are taken across the roof and, where there is safe access, in the loft.
- Patterns that stand out are checked with moisture readings.
- The report pairs each thermal image with a photo and explains what it suggests.
Getting ready for the survey
- Check we can get to the back of the property
- Make sure the loft hatch can be reached
- Let us know about parking before the day

Common roof problems in Weavers Down
Not every roof problem shows on the surface. Wet insulation, gaps in insulation and heat loss are often invisible from outside. Thermal imaging gives us another way to look for them.
Here are some of the things we see frequently:
- Water that travels before it shows
- Stains that keep coming back
- Thin or uneven insulation in the roof
- Heat escaping through the roof
For any home in Weavers Down, it is the small, early fault that is cheapest to put right.
Questions to ask before booking
- Whether they hold professional indemnity and public liability insurance
- What follow-up you get after the report
- What the report includes, and whether it has photographs
- What experience they bring
When you need someone else
It helps to know what a survey won’t do before you book:
- Clear results when the conditions on the day are poor
- Insulation values or heat loss calculations
- Structural calculations, which need a structural engineer
