Flat roof surveys for homes and businesses in Boundstone
We inspect a flat roof from wherever it can be seen safely: from the roof itself where that’s safe, from windows and nearby vantage points, and from inside where there’s access. Fragile rooflights and fragile sheets are never walked on. Where any area cannot be viewed safely, we say so in the report, so the limits of the survey are clear. If you’ve noticed signs of deflection in the roof deck and outlets choked with leaves and silt, we can find out what’s behind it.
Outbuildings, garden rooms and garages in places like Boundstone often have flat roofs of their own. They’re rarely looked at until something gets wet. It is worth mentioning them when booking, so the visit can include them, along with the main flat roof. Felt, rubber and GRP coverings on garages and outbuildings age in just the same way as the main roof’s.
What you get is a clear record of the flat roof on the day we saw it. It is useful straight away, and a good reference for later, for example when you want to check whether anything has changed.

Useful tips for Boundstone property owners
These tips come from what we see on roofs every week:
- Limit foot traffic on the covering
- Book a survey every few years
- Clear roof outlets and gutters each autumn
- Ask whoever fits equipment on the roof to make good the covering
If you are buying, the report gives you something specific to take back to the seller or agent. You might ask for work to be done before completion, or discuss the price, depending on the findings.
Have the roof surveyed every few years, and after any work that goes through it. You will spot changes early and have a record to look back on.
Why get it checked now?
On a commercial building, a flat roof leak can disrupt tenants, staff and stock. Surveying the roof in good time means work can be planned and budgeted around the business. Blocked gutters on homes around Boundstone overflow and soak walls, especially where trees overhang. It is easy to sort the cause early and slow to dry a damp wall.
Our price is from £150, including VAT. The final price depends on how big and how high the roof is, how it can be seen safely and the package you choose.

Flat roof surveys around Boundstone
Many older homes in Surrey have handmade clay tiles and tile-hung upper walls. Horsham stone slab roofs survive on some old buildings in Surrey. Mixed in with those pitched roofs are plenty of flat ones, over rear extensions, dormers, garages and shops. The wider area around Boundstone has a long history of building, with Farnham Castle about 2 miles north. 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.
Take a building like St Peter's CofE Primary School: large flat roofs, common on schools and other public buildings, need their outlets, upstands and coverings checked regularly. If you live in an older home near St Timothy, the flat roofs on later extensions tend to wear out long before the main roof. For landlords with property near Farnham station, the flat roof over a let home is worth a look before it becomes a tenant complaint.

Boundstone: your questions answered
Will you come out to Boundstone?
Yes, Boundstone is on our map. Villages and rural addresses get the same survey as a town house, with the route planned beforehand.
How do I find out if my home in Boundstone is listed?
You can check whether a building is listed on Historic England’s list, and your council can tell you if it’s in a conservation area. 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.
How do I book a survey in Boundstone?
The quickest way is to phone 07833 053749 or use the contact form. Give us the address and some details about the roof, and we will suggest the right survey. Surveys run on weekdays, Saturdays and Sundays.
Will you walk on the flat roof?
We inspect from wherever is safe: the roof itself where that is safe, plus windows, vantage points and the rooms below. Fragile rooflights and fragile sheets are never walked on.
Do you carry professional indemnity insurance?
We’re covered by professional indemnity and public liability insurance, for every survey we carry out.
Does the report include photos?
Yes. Photographs are part of every report, so you can see each point for yourself.
Is ponding on a flat roof a problem?
Standing water on a flat roof deserves a closer look. It can point to blocked outlets, poor falls or a deck that is sagging, and water that sits wears the covering sooner. Our survey notes the ponding and what seems to be causing it.
How it works
We look at the roof from outside and, where it’s relevant and there is safe access, from inside the roof space too. Inside, we look for staining, damp, gaps and signs of movement. All in, the survey normally takes between one and two hours for a small flat roof at home, and longer for a large commercial one. Homes around Boundstone frequently have gardens on more than one side, which gives us room to step back and see the roof. Let us know if any side is fenced off or hard to reach. Inside, the loft is checked where it can be reached safely.
- First we go through the roof, what’s beneath it and any problems so far.
- We check the roof from ground level, windows and the roof where it is safe.
- The covering is checked for wear, splits, blisters and standing water.
- We photograph and record the outlets, upstands, trims and rooflights.
- The report, with photos and recommendations, comes to you by email.
Before we arrive
- Keep pets inside or away from the areas we are looking at
- If you are buying, let the agent know when we are coming
- Move anything stored under the loft hatch
Book a survey
Photos help, if you have them. Pictures from ground level or a window are fine, and please don’t climb up for a closer look. To send them or to book, ring 07833 053749 or send us an email.
Related advice
Rented homes, blocks and businesses
Roof problems in a rented home affect tenants as well as the building. A survey helps you spot issues early and plan the work around your tenants.
Letting agents can arrange access with tenants. Surveys run seven days a week, which can make access easier.
What you can safely check yourself
A DIY look is useful, but it is not a survey. You will not see flashings, valleys or the backs of chimneys properly from the ground, and those are details a survey looks at closely.
Keep a simple record: dates of leaks, photos from ground level and any work done on the roof. Share it with us when booking, as it helps us focus the survey.
How we price flat roof surveys
Several things affect the price of a survey:
- Chimneys, valleys, parapets and other details
- If the survey needs thermal imaging or a drone
- How many separate roofs there are, such as extensions, dormers and garages
- Basic, Standard or Premium
A small, low roof with good viewpoints takes less time than a tall, complicated one, and the package matters as well. We will give you the figure before anything is booked.
Helping us price your survey
These details help when you get in touch:
- The style of property, from a terrace to a block
- What made you get in touch
- How the loft is reached, if there is one
- Pictures from the garden or a window, if you have them
Unsure which package suits your roof? It is easiest to ring 07833 053749 or use the contact form and describe the roof and why you want it surveyed. We’ll talk you through the options and what they cost.
