Redenham Flat Roof Survey
Surveys of flat roofs on homes, extensions and commercial buildings in Redenham, with drones and thermal imaging where they help. Call or email for a price.
- Upstands pulling away from walls
- A sagging deck under the covering
- Blisters and bubbles in the covering
Useful tips for Redenham property owners
A little preparation and a few simple habits help. Some pointers:
- Keep people off the roof unless they need to be there
- Note where water lies after a downpour
- File the paperwork for the roof and any repairs
- Watch the ceilings below the flat roof for stains
Questions about the findings are always welcome. Standard Surveys come with a follow-up consultation, and Premium Surveys with an in-person one, giving you a chance to go through what we found.
Keep foot traffic on a flat roof to a minimum. If access is needed, boards or walkways help protect the covering, and to keep well clear of rooflights and fragile sheeting.
About our flat roof survey in Redenham
Many commercial buildings and blocks of flats have big flat roofs. A survey of a roof this size picks out worn covering, standing water and outlets that need attention. The photographed record helps you plan and budget for work. Commercial roofs are quoted for their size and access, so it helps if you call 07833 053749 or send us an email with the address and a rough idea of the roof area. If you’re worried about raised blisters across the surface and signs of deflection in the roof deck, a survey will tell you what’s going on, on single-ply membranes, mastic asphalt and upstands and outlets alike.
Some older homes in villages like Redenham 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. Finding out what state the roof is in gives you the facts to plan with. Changes that affect a listed building’s special interest need listed building consent.
Report times depend on the survey you book: Basic within 48 hours, Standard in 24–48 hours and Premium the same day.

What else we do in Redenham
Why get it checked now?
Flat roofs cannot typically be seen from the street, so they’re often overlooked. Owners often learn the roof is at the end of its life only when it leaks. A survey every few years stops that from catching you out. For older village homes like those around Redenham, the right replacement materials are not always easy to find quickly. Spotting a problem early leaves room to find them.
The cost of a survey depends on the roof: how big it is, how high it is, the number of separate roofs and how it can be reached and seen safely. Flat roof survey starts from £150, including VAT.
Why choose Independent Roof Survey in Redenham
- Thermal imaging and drone inspection where they help
- 20+ years’ experience
- Every finding written up with photos
- An independent view of the roof
How it works
Once we have finished looking, we write up our findings in a report with photographs, emailed to you. On timing, it typically takes about one to two hours for a small flat roof at home, and longer for a large commercial one. Older roofs in small places like Redenham can have low, tight loft spaces, so tell us about the loft hatch and any ladder. Only areas that can be reached safely are inspected.
- We start with the address and, on larger roofs, the roof area and access.
- Inside, we look for signs of water under the roof where we can reach.
- The roof is inspected from every safe viewpoint, without walking on fragile surfaces.
- We record every defect with a photo and its likely cause.
- The report explains the condition and recommends what to do first.
Before we arrive
- Let us know about parking near the property
- Dig out any old roof reports or invoices
- Tell us about any leaks, stains or damp patches you know of
How to book
Booking is simple: just call 07833 053749 or use the contact form and give us some details about the property and we’ll recommend the right survey. We confirm the price before anything is booked.
Advice
Can I check my roof myself?
Inside, the loft is a good place to look, with care. Use a torch and stay on the joists or boards, and look for staining, damp timber or daylight coming through.
After heavy rain, check ceilings and the tops of walls for new stains. Take a photo and write down when you saw it, which helps when we check the roof.
Honest limits
It is a careful look at the flat roof, not the whole story. The main limits are:
- Structural calculations, which need a structural engineer
- Fragile surfaces, which we don’t walk on
- The condition of the deck or insulation hidden under the covering
If you’re not sure which survey you need, phone 07833 053749 or send us an email and we’ll give you a straight answer before you book. What a survey covers and doesn’t.

Questions from Redenham
Do you cover Redenham?
Yes, Redenham is one of the places we work. The survey and report are the same in Redenham as anywhere else.
How do I find out if my home in Redenham is listed?
The council and Historic England’s list are the places to check. It’s worth checking before planning roof work, as both can affect what’s allowed.
What insurance do you have?
Professional indemnity and public liability insurance cover our surveys. Ask if you need details for a managing agent or building owner.
How do I arrange a flat roof survey in Redenham?
To arrange a survey, ring 07833 053749 or drop us an email and let us know the address and what you want to find out. We’ll confirm the price and agree a day with you.
Should I worry about standing water on my flat roof?
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.
What do I do with the report?
You receive the written report by email, with photos and recommendations. It’s yours to share with a seller, insurer, roofer or managing agent, whichever applies.
Does someone need to be in?
Not necessarily. An outside-only look can be arranged beforehand, but anything inside needs someone there to give access.
Flat roofs in Redenham
Some Hampshire villages still have thatched roofs. Across the South East, older homes tend to have slate or clay tiles, and many later ones concrete tiles. Next to the main roofs there is usually a flat roof somewhere, whether on an extension, a garage or a commercial unit. Older buildings may be listed or sit in a conservation area. To find out, check Historic England’s list and ask the council about conservation areas. In either case, a change of roofing material may need consent.
For landlords with property near Andover station, flat roofs on let property tend to be checked only when they fail, which is the costly way round. If you own one of the older houses in the streets near Church of St Peter in the Wood, any flat roof added at the back or on a dormer is likely to be far younger, and less durable, than the main roof. Anyone responsible for a site like Appleshaw St Peter's CofE Primary School will know that a large flat roof with plenty of outlets and rooflights has many places where a membrane can fail.
