Flat roof survey in Highstreet Green
Ponding is frequently the first sign that something on a flat roof isn’t right. It can point to poor falls, a blocked outlet or a deck that is deflecting. We record where water sits, check the outlets and look for dips that suggest deflection. If the deck itself looks like a structural concern, we will recommend a structural engineer. We survey felt flat roofs, EPDM rubber and GRP fibreglass, and people most often book us about loose or cracked edge trims and ponding water that doesn’t drain away.
Some older homes in villages like Highstreet Green are listed or in a conservation area, which can shape what a new flat roof may look like. Check with the council before planning any change of material. Knowing the roof’s condition is the starting point. Changes that affect a listed building’s special interest need listed building consent.
It isn’t only a list of defects. It explains what we found, why it matters and what we recommend.

Leave it or get it looked at?
Waiting for a stain inside means the water has already got through the layers. We can pick up worn covering and failing details sooner, so you can plan the work rather than react to it. Where a roof is exposed, as many are in small places like Highstreet Green, driving rain gets into any weakness, and older walls, once damp, take a long time to dry.
Price depends partly on the package: from £150 for Basic, £250 for Standard and £400 for Premium, with VAT included. Size, height and access can affect the price too.
Why book with us
- 5,000+ surveys completed
- We hold a CAA Flyer ID and Operator ID
- Surveys on any day of the week
- An independent view of the roof

Flat roofs in Highstreet Green
Many older homes in Surrey have handmade clay tiles and tile-hung upper walls. A few of Surrey’s oldest buildings have heavy Horsham stone slab roofs. Next to the main roofs there’s normally a flat roof somewhere, whether on an extension, a garage or a commercial unit. There are about 500,000 buildings on England’s list of listed buildings, and around 10,000 conservation areas. Listed building consent is needed for changes that affect a listed building’s special interest, and conservation areas can limit changes of roofing material, so check with the council.
For landlords with property near Witley station, flat roofs on let property tend to be checked only when they fail, which is the costly way round.

Do you need a flat roof survey in Highstreet Green?
Water that does not drain sits on the roof and speeds up wear. It usually comes from poor falls, a blocked outlet or a deck that has dipped. Leaves and silt from nearby trees can soon choke an outlet.
We are frequently asked to look at:
- Signs of deflection in the roof deck
- Upstands pulling away from walls
- Cracked or split membrane
- Loose or cracked edge trims
Whatever the street in Highstreet Green, a roof costs least to look after when faults are caught early.
What to check before booking
- Whether the inside of the roof is included
- Is VAT included in the price?
- What happens after the report arrives
- What’s outside the scope of the survey
For landlords and managing agents
Managing agents and residents’ management companies use roof surveys to plan maintenance. The report sets out what needs attention now and what can wait, which helps when budgeting.
Freeholders and residents’ companies use a roof report to plan and budget, putting the urgent items at the top.
What happens on the day
It is useful to start with what’s prompted the survey: a purchase, a leak, a storm, new work or simply peace of mind. That way we can focus on what matters to you. Most visits take about 1–2 hours for a house, and about three to four hours for a commercial roof. Cottages and farmhouses around Highstreet Green often have roofs at several levels, with lean-tos and outbuildings attached. Each part is looked at from wherever it can be seen safely, and anything we can’t see is noted.
- You send us the address and, for commercial roofs, an idea of the roof’s size.
- We check the rooms or spaces under the roof for staining where there is access.
- We view the roof from safe positions and never walk on fragile surfaces.
- Each defect is photographed and its likely cause noted.
- The report explains the condition and recommends what to do first.
Before the survey
- Dig out any old roof reports or invoices
- Buyers: confirm access with the estate agent or seller
- Note where any stains or damp appear

Which days do you carry out surveys?
We survey seven days a week: Monday to Friday, Saturdays and Sundays. Tell us which days suit you when booking.
How long does the survey take?
It typically takes an hour or two for a small flat roof at home, and longer for a large commercial one. We will confirm the timing as you book.
Does the survey cover asbestos?
Our survey doesn’t include asbestos testing. Older buildings, from before 2000, may have asbestos in cement sheets or soffits. We note anything that could contain it, and a specialist asbestos surveyor should check it before it is disturbed.
How quickly is the report sent?
Each package has its own report time. Basic is within 48 hours, Standard is 24–48 hours and Premium is the same day. Mention any deadline as you book.
Do you survey roofs on blocks of flats?
Yes. Shared roofs just need a little more planning, with whoever owns or manages the building. Let us know about it as you book and we will plan the survey around it.
