How a flat roof survey works in Coxhill Green
We inspect a flat roof from wherever it can safely be seen: on the roof where it’s safe, from windows and higher ground, and from the rooms below where we can reach them. Fragile rooflights and fragile sheets are never walked on. Where any area cannot be viewed safely, we say so in the report, so you know exactly what was covered. Common reasons to book are signs of deflection in the roof deck and failed seals around rooflight kerbs, across EPDM rubber, mastic asphalt and GRP fibreglass.
Flat roofs on exposed homes in small places like Coxhill Green take more wind and rain, so edges, upstands and laps take a beating. Felt roofs, which frequently last around 15–20 years, normally show it first. EPDM rubber and GRP coverings last longer, but their edges and joints still need checking. On an exposed roof, the edges tend to go first.
Findings are set out part by part, from the main slopes down to the gutters and outlets. It records what’s sound as well as what is not.

Local flat roofs in Coxhill Green
Historic houses like Botleys Mansion, about 3.5 miles north-east, show how far back building in the area around Coxhill Green goes. Older roofs in the wider area can hide decades of patch repairs, so the detail matters. Older houses across Surrey often have handmade clay tiles, and many have tile-hanging. Horsham stone slab roofs survive on some old buildings in Surrey. Flat roofs fill the gaps in between, on extensions, garages, dormers and business premises.
If you run a business near The Peacocks, outlets and upstands on commercial flat roofs are the places to check before trouble starts. Take a building like St Lawrence CofE (Aided) Primary School: schools and public buildings frequently have big flat roofs, and their outlets and upstands need regular checks. For landlords with property near Longcross station, a flat roof over a rented flat is easy to forget until the tenant reports a leak.

Tips that help
You do not need to be a roofer to help. Here’s what helps most:
- Have the roof looked at again after a severe storm
- Note the date and type of any roof work
- Note any new marks on ceilings beneath the roof
- Limit foot traffic on the covering
If you’re 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.
Book a survey every few years, and again after new fixings, units or rooflights go in. You will spot changes early and have a record to look back on.
Why get it checked now?
Caught early, a split or open seam in a flat roof is often a small repair. Left alone, water can soak the insulation and the deck, and the job grows. Surveying it now tells you where you stand. Where a roof is exposed, as many are in small places like Coxhill Green, driving rain gets into any weakness, and older walls, once damp, take a long time to dry.
There are three survey packages: the Basic Survey from £150, the Standard Survey from £250 and the Premium Survey from £400, all including VAT. What your roof costs depends on its size, access and what you want to find out.
Why book with us
- An independent look at the roof
- We hold a CAA Flyer ID and Operator ID
- Thermal imaging and drone inspection where they help
- Covered by professional indemnity and public liability insurance

Prices for flat roof surveys in Coxhill Green
Not every roof costs the same to survey, and it comes down to:
- The size of the roof
- Whether it’s a home or a commercial building
- If the survey needs thermal imaging or a drone
- Height and safe access
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.

Questions from Coxhill Green
Is my home in Coxhill Green listed or in a conservation area?
We cannot confirm that for you, but Historic England’s list and your council can. A change of roofing material may need consent in either case, and councils can also use Article 4 directions.
Is Coxhill Green in the area you cover?
We do. Every survey there gets the same written report with photos.
How long does the survey take?
Most surveys take roughly 1–2 hours for a small flat roof at home, and longer for a large commercial one. The report follows by email.
How much is a survey?
Our price is from £150, including VAT. What you pay for your roof depends on its size, height, access and the package, confirmed before anything is booked.
Does the report include photos?
Yes. We photograph the roof as we go, and they go into the written report alongside our recommendations.
Do I need to be at home?
Not always. If we only need the outside, we can agree that in advance, but the loft and any rooms with damp need someone to let us in.
How do you inspect a flat roof?
It depends on what’s safe: the roof itself where that’s safe, plus windows, vantage points and the rooms below. Fragile rooflights and fragile sheets are never walked on.
Different roofs, different checks
Felt and built-up roofs
A felt roof often lasts around 15 to 20 years, though quality and upkeep make a big difference. We record how yours is doing and where it is weakest.
Mastic asphalt
Asphalt roofs are common on older flats, walkways and commercial buildings. We look for crazing, cracks, blisters and splits at the skirtings.
What happens on the day
Before we start, let us know why you’ve booked: buying, a leak, storm damage, new work or just wanting to know where things stand. That way we can focus on what matters to you. Most visits take an hour or two for a small flat roof at home, and longer for a large commercial one. Somewhere like Coxhill Green needs a little journey planning: let us know about lanes, gates and parking. On the day, we inspect whatever is safely visible, inside and out.
- We agree the roof to be surveyed, its use and any leaks you know about.
- 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.
- Upstands, outlets, edge trims and rooflights are checked and photographed.
- A written report with photos and recommendations is emailed to you.
Before we arrive
- Point out any leaks or damp patches
- For flats, check roof access has been agreed
- Keep pets inside or away from the areas we are looking at
