Your questions about flat roof surveys in Hazeley
Will you come out to Hazeley?
Yes, we do. We survey roofs across London and South East England, and smaller places are part of that. The journey is planned ahead, so it is useful to know about access.
Is my home in Hazeley listed or in a conservation area?
Start with Historic England’s list for listing and your council for conservation areas. Either can affect what roof work is allowed, so it is worth checking before planning any.
Can you survey any kind of flat roof?
Felt, asphalt, EPDM, GRP and single-ply roofs are all covered. Not sure what yours is? We will tell you in the report.
Can you inspect my roof with a drone?
Yes, where applicable and safe. We fly a sub-250g drone and we’re a CAA-registered drone operator (Flyer ID and Operator ID). It’s included in the Drone Roof Survey and, where applicable, the Premium Survey.
Are you structural engineers?
No. We’re roof surveyors, not structural engineers, and it does not include calculations. If we see signs that need an engineer’s opinion, we will recommend one.
Do you need to get into the loft?
If the survey needs it and the loft space can be reached safely, yes. Please clear anything stored under the hatch.
How many years has my flat roof got left?
A precise figure is not something we give, because it depends on upkeep, weather and how the roof was laid. Our report describes the condition and what needs doing, and when.
Flat roof survey in Hazeley
Every flat roof covering tends to fail in its own way. Felt can blister and crack, asphalt can craze and split, EPDM seams and laps can lift, and GRP can crack where boards meet or at the trims. On PVC and TPO single-ply roofs, we look closely at the welded laps, edges and fixings. Knowing what you have and how it’s doing helps you plan what comes next. We survey EPDM rubber, GRP fibreglass and upstands and outlets, and common reasons people get in touch are outlets choked with leaves and silt and signs of deflection in the roof deck.
Somewhere as small as Hazeley, flat roofs tend to be on extensions, garages and converted outbuildings. The checks are the same as anywhere: outlets, upstands, edges and the covering itself. The journey and access are planned beforehand. If there are outbuildings or garages with flat roofs, mention them when booking.
The written findings come by email, ready to forward to whoever needs them. Turnaround is within 48 hours for Basic, 24–48 hours for Standard and same day for Premium.

Signs you need a flat roof survey in Hazeley
Many flat roof problems start at the details rather than the main surface. Upstands, edge trims, outlets and the kerbs around rooflights move and weather differently from the rest of the roof. Where they weren’t finished well, they tend to fail before anything else.
Here are some of the things we see often:
- Ponding water that does not drain away
- Dips that suggest the deck is deflecting
- Splits, cracks and crazing
- Water getting in at rooflights
Take an older house close to Mattingley Church: the flat roofs on later extensions tend to wear out long before the main roof.
Questions to ask before booking
- Their report turnaround times
- How they plan to inspect the roof safely
- Will they check the loft as well as the outside?
- Their insurance cover
When you need someone else
Some things cannot be seen without opening up the roof, so a survey has limits:
- What’s under the membrane without opening it up
- Fragile surfaces, which we don’t walk on
- A promise that the roof won’t leak in future
Not sure which survey suits your roof? You can phone 07833 053749 or use the contact form and we’ll tell you before you book. What our survey covers.

Local flat roofs in Hazeley
Stratfield Saye House, about 3.1 miles north-west, is one of the historic houses in the wider area around Hazeley. Period homes nearby can have lead valleys, tall chimneys and a patchwork of past repairs. Some Hampshire villages still have thatched roofs. Older houses in the South East frequently have slate or clay tile roofs, while many later estates have concrete tiles. Alongside them, flat-roofed extensions, dormers, garages and commercial units are common almost everywhere.
If you let a flat or house near Winchfield station, the flat roof over a let home is worth a look before it becomes a tenant complaint.

Before and after the survey
A survey works best with a little help from you, before and after. Tips:
- Check that new brackets or units haven’t damaged the covering
- Have the roof looked at again after a severe storm
- Keep clear of rooflights and fragile roof sheets
- Note where water lies after a downpour
The report is emailed to you, ready to share with a roofer, the seller or a managing agent. Each defect is described in plain words and shown in a photo, so anyone reading it can see what we saw.
Get splits, lifted seams and loose trims seen to while they’re small. Prompt repairs tend to add years to a flat roof.
What we look for on each type of roof
Rooflights and upstands
Where a flat roof meets a wall, the upstand has to stay sealed as the building moves. We check for splits, gaps and loose flashings above the upstand.
Mastic asphalt
Without seams, asphalt tends to fail through cracking and at its skirtings. We record any crazing or splits and where water may be getting in.

How it works
The aim of the visit is simple: to look at the flat roof as closely as is safe and record what we find. Notes and photographs go into the written report. The visit usually takes an hour or two at most homes, with bigger or more complicated roofs taking longer. In a hamlet or village like Hazeley, a postcode doesn’t always lead to the right gate, so a few directions are welcome. The visit itself is the same as anywhere else.
- We start with the details: the address, the roof’s use and any leaks or stains.
- We check the roof from wherever it can be seen safely.
- The covering, falls, upstands, outlets, edge trims and rooflights are checked and photographed.
- Where there’s safe access, we look at the ceilings and spaces below for signs of water.
- You get a written report with photos and our recommendations.
Preparing for the visit
- Keep pets inside or away from the areas we’re looking at
- If you’re buying, let the agent know when we’re coming
- For flats, check roof access has been agreed
