How a flat roof survey works in Spanish Green
Each flat roof is looked at from the safest viewpoints we have: from the roof itself where that’s safe, from windows and nearby vantage points, and from inside where there is access. Fragile rooflights and fragile sheets are never walked on. If part of the roof cannot be seen or reached safely, the report says so, so you know exactly what was covered. If you’ve noticed water getting in at rooflights and cracked or split membrane, a survey will tell you what’s going on, on mastic asphalt, EPDM rubber and GRP fibreglass alike.
In a small place like Spanish Green, a flat roof can stand in the open, so edges, upstands and laps take a beating. Older felt roofs, often around 15–20 years in life, show it first. Rubber and GRP last longer, though trims and joints still need a look. Exposed edges are normally the first part of a flat roof to go.
Report times depend on the survey you book: the Basic Survey within 48 hours, the Standard Survey in 24 to 48 hours and the Premium Survey on the same day.

Can you survey a flat roof on an office or unit?
Yes. We survey flat roofs on offices, shops, industrial units and blocks of flats. We quote bigger roofs on their size and how they’re reached, so please ring 07833 053749 or email us with the details.
What’s in the report?
It explains what we saw, what it means and what we’d suggest, backed by photographs. Anything we couldn’t see safely is noted too, so you know exactly what was covered.
What we’re asked to look at in Spanish Green
Flat roofs swing between hot and cold more than most parts of a building. This constant movement works at laps, seams and board joints, which can open splits and cracks over the years. Older coverings that have lost their flexibility are the most likely to suffer.
People normally book a survey after spotting one of these:
- Damaged trims at the roof edge
- Dips that suggest the deck is deflecting
- Gaps at upstands and abutments
- Splits, cracks and crazing
If you let a flat or house near Bramley (Hants) station, flat roofs over rear additions and dormers in rented property are worth checking between tenancies.
Questions to ask before booking
- Whether the loft space is looked at, where there is one
- When you will get the report
- Whether they hold professional indemnity and public liability insurance
- What the report includes, and whether it has photographs
Why get it checked now?
Before replacing a flat roof, it’s useful to know if you really need to. Sometimes some details are to blame, and sometimes the covering has simply had its day. The report sets out what we found, so you can make that decision with a roofer. For older village homes like those around Spanish Green, 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: its size, its height, how many sections it has and how it can be reached and seen safely. Our price is from £150, including VAT.

Tips that help
Small things make a difference, both for the survey and for the roof itself. Some pointers:
- Treat rooflights and old sheeting as fragile
- Clear roof outlets and gutters each autumn
- Note any new marks on ceilings beneath the roof
- Keep records of when the roof was laid and what work has been done
Once we have been, the findings are written up with photos. It covers the type of covering, its condition and each defect, with our recommendations. Turnaround is within 48 hours for a Basic Survey, 24 to 48 hours for a Standard Survey and the same day for a Premium Survey.
After heavy rain, look at the roof from an upstairs window if you can. If water is still there a day or two later, have it checked.
What a flat roof survey doesn’t cover
In fairness, a roof survey has limits:
- Whether the deck or joists are strong enough
- Whether old sheeting or boards contain asbestos
- An exact number of years the roof has left

Flat roof surveys around Spanish Green
With Stratfield Saye House about 1.8 miles north, Spanish Green sits in an area with a long building history. Older roofs in the wider area can hide decades of patch repairs, so the detail matters, and the council can say whether a home is in a conservation area. A number of Hampshire villages keep thatched roofs on their older buildings. 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 normally a flat roof somewhere, whether on an extension, a garage or a commercial unit.
Take a building like Daneshill School: a large flat roof with plenty of outlets and rooflights has many places where a membrane can fail. If you own one of the older houses in the streets near Church of St Mary the Blessed Virgin, the flat roofs on later extensions tend to wear out long before the main roof.
