What Roof Consultancy Ltd does

Roof Consultancy Ltd is a UK private limited company (registered number 14512999) operating from Ashford, Kent, that delivers commercial roof inspection and diagnostic services across the Kent region of England. The company serves commercial property owners, facility managers, and building owners, addressing problems including roof leaks, trapped moisture, membrane defects, asbestos hazards in older buildings (1950s–1980s construction), and pre-purchase due-diligence inspections.

The company's service portfolio covers nine diagnostic methods spanning non-destructive and intrusive techniques: visual roof survey with photographic reporting, infrared thermal roof survey, moisture scanning, moisture probing with CAD-plotted outputs, Membrane Integrity Testing (electronic leak detection using electronically charged bristles), core sampling with laboratory analysis, PASMA-trained asbestos sampling, vacuum dewatering, and drone-based aerial roof survey. Together these allow customers to select the appropriate inspection approach for flat or low-pitched commercial roofs.

Revenue is generated fee-for-service through quote-based engagements, with a free initial site survey used as a top-of-funnel offer. Distribution is direct field sales: trained consultants visit customer sites in Kent to survey and report, with lead capture via phone, email, and an enquiry form on the company website. No resellers, partnerships, or geographic expansion beyond Kent/England are indicated. Ownership is not disclosed; the company is privately held with no known venture capital, private equity, or parent-company backing.

Its offerings include visual surveys, thermal imaging, moisture scanning, membrane integrity testing (electronic leak detection), core sampling, asbestos testing, dewatering, and drone surveys, followed by written reports with photographic evidence and recommendations for remedial works. The company does not undertake remedial construction itself; it diagnoses roof conditions and recommends specialist contractors to carry out required repairs.

Product overview

The portfolio includes Visual Roof Survey, Thermal Roof Survey, Moisture Scanning, Moisture Probe, Membrane Integrity Testing, Core Sampling, Asbestos Testing, Dewatering, and Drone Roof Survey. These services range from non-destructive diagnostics (electronic leak detection, thermal imaging, moisture scanning) to intrusive methods (core sampling) and specialist testing (asbestos), allowing customers to select the appropriate inspection approach based on their specific roof conditions and requirements.

Products and services

• Visual Roof Survey Visual inspection of commercial roofs conducted by experienced industrial roofing contractors, producing a comprehensive written report with photographic evidence, assessment of termination details, rainwater gutters and coverings, and recommendations for any required action. Intended for commercial property owners and facility managers who suspect a roof fault or need condition documentation.
• Thermal Roof Survey Infrared thermal imaging survey that locates wet or missing insulation and identifies trapped moisture between membrane elements, with defective areas marked using survey paint to enable transparent repair execution. Aimed at commercial property owners and facility managers needing non-destructive moisture and insulation diagnostics.
• Moisture Scanning Precision moisture detection service for roofing systems, particularly useful where thermal surveying is unsuitable: above unheated buildings, in areas with heat-generating sources, or where waterproofing is covered with chippings. Targeted at commercial property owners needing accurate moisture diagnostics.
• Moisture Probe Diagnostic service for areas identified as potentially leaking, involving core cutting and insertion of a moisture probe to confirm the presence of moisture and determine next steps, with results plotted on CAD drawings. Used by commercial property owners and facility managers requiring follow-up moisture confirmation after an initial survey.
• Membrane Integrity Testing (Electronic Leak Detection) Non-destructive electronic leak detection using electronically charged bristles to identify water leak entry points and trapped water within flat or low-pitched roof constructions, capable of detecting leaks as small as screw holes without removing surface coatings and without resorting to flood testing. Aimed at commercial property owners and facility managers needing precise leak pinpointing.
• Core Sampling Intrusive method for finding moisture trapped within roofing systems by cutting out roof samples of 4–12 inches and sending them in sealed containers for laboratory-standard scientific analysis. Used by commercial property owners and facility managers requiring definitive moisture confirmation when non-destructive methods are inconclusive.
• Asbestos Testing Asbestos sample collection and testing service conducted by PASMA-trained specialists following strict safety protocols, with samples placed in sealed containers and transferred to certified partners for analysis, together with advice on resolving identified issues. Targeted at owners of buildings constructed during the 1950s–1980s period that may contain asbestos materials.
• Dewatering Roof and floor vacuum dewatering service for removing standing water and managing moisture issues in commercial properties. Delivered to commercial property owners and facility managers facing water accumulation on roofs or floors.
• Drone Roof Survey Aerial roof survey using drone technology for comprehensive inspection of commercial roofing systems, providing an alternative or complement to on-foot visual surveys where access is difficult.

Quantifiable outcome

• Accurate leak detection down to small screw holes without need for flood testing

Broad incumbents

• SGS: Global TIC firm providing building inspection, materials testing, and condition surveys for commercial real estate. Overlaps with Roof Consultancy in providing independent third-party inspection deliverables, but operates at much greater scale across multiple verticals.
• CBRE: Global real estate services firm providing building condition assessments and technical due diligence, including roofing, for commercial owners and occupiers. Comparable in customer base (commercial property owners, facility managers) and deliverable type (independent roof condition reports).
• WSP: Global engineering and professional services consultancy with a building surveying practice that conducts roof condition surveys and due-diligence inspections. Comparable in delivering independent commercial roof inspection reports, though typically bundled with broader engineering scopes.
• Intertek: Global TIC firm offering building and construction-related inspection and testing services. Comparable in delivering independent roof and building-envelope assessments to commercial property stakeholders, though from a much larger portfolio of services.
• AECOM: Global engineering consultancy offering building condition assessments, technical due diligence, and asset integrity services including roofing. Comparable customer overlap with Roof Consultancy (commercial owners, facility managers) and similar independent-report positioning.
• JLL: Global real estate services firm whose building-due-diligence and asset-management practices include roof condition assessments for owners, lenders, and investors. Comparable because it bundles roof inspections with broader property transaction and asset-management workflows similar to Roof Consultancy's pre-purchase / insurance documentation use cases.
• Bureau Veritas: Global Testing, Inspection and Certification (TIC) firm with a building-condition-assessment and asset-integrity practice. Comparable as a broader incumbent offering independent building inspections, including roofing, to commercial and industrial owners across multiple geographies.
• UL Solutions: Global safety science and TIC organisation with building materials and construction-related testing and inspection services. Comparable in providing independent, standards-based roof and building-envelope testing and certification for commercial customers.

Direct peers

• EagleView: Aerial roof measurement and inspection specialist offering drone- and imagery-based roof condition reports. Directly comparable in that it delivers third-party, technology-enabled roof assessments for commercial property owners and insurers — the same customer workflow Roof Consultancy serves.

Emerging players

• DroneDeploy: Cloud-based reality capture and drone inspection platform widely used for commercial roof inspections and condition mapping. Comparable as an enabling technology layer for the same drone-enabled roof survey service Roof Consultancy offers, and a potential channel / substitute.
