Flat roof surveys near Tuesley

Flat roof survey in Tuesley

Our flat roof survey checks the waterproof covering and every detail around it, from edges and upstands to outlets and rooflights. Felt, asphalt, EPDM, GRP and single-ply PVC or TPO roofs are all part of the work. It suits a small roof over an extension or garage as well as a large one over flats, offices or units. You get a written report with photographs and our recommendations. If you are worried about outlets that hold water back and loose or cracked edge trims, we can find out what’s behind it.

In a village or hamlet like Tuesley, flat roofs are typically on extensions, garages, outbuildings or barn conversions. The checks are the same as anywhere: outlets, upstands, edges and the covering itself. We simply plan the journey and access beforehand. Garages and outbuildings are easy to forget, so mention any you want included when booking.

Nothing in the report is left vague: where something needs attention, it says so plainly.

The survey, step by step

We photograph the roof as we go, so you can see in the report what we found and where. We take close-ups from wherever is safe. Most surveys take an hour or two for a house, and longer for a large or complex roof. In a hamlet or village like Tuesley, a postcode doesn’t always lead to the right gate, so a few directions, or a note of a nearby landmark, help us arrive on time. After that, the survey runs as it would anywhere.

  1. We agree the roof to be surveyed, its use and any leaks you know about.
  2. We check the roof from ground level, windows and the roof where it is safe.
  3. The covering is checked for wear, splits, blisters and standing water.
  4. Upstands, outlets, edge trims and rooflights are checked and photographed.
  5. The report, with photographs and recommendations, comes to you by email.

Before we arrive

  • For a flat or shared roof, check access with the freeholder or managing agent
  • Note where any stains or damp appear
  • Check pets are kept safely away

Common questions in Tuesley

Do you cover smaller places like Tuesley?

Yes, Tuesley is on our map. A small place gets exactly the same survey as a big one, with the route planned beforehand.

How do I find out if my home in Tuesley is listed?

Your council is the best source, with Historic England’s list for listed buildings. A change of roofing material may need consent in either case.

What if it rains on the day?

It depends on the weather and the survey. In strong wind or a downpour, a drone can’t fly and access may not be safe, so we’d move the date with you.

What happens next?

You’ll receive the report by email, and what you do next is up to you: use it with a seller, an insurer, a roofer or a managing agent.

Can you inspect my roof with a drone?

Yes, where applicable and safe. We’re a CAA-registered drone operator (Flyer ID and Operator ID), flying a sub-250g drone. Drone inspection is part of the Drone Roof Survey and the Premium Survey, where applicable.

Do you look for flat roof leaks?

Our survey looks across the whole roof, not only above the stain. Splits, open laps, upstands, outlets and rooflights are all checked. Where nothing visible explains the leak, the report says what to try next.

Will I get photos?

Yes. The report includes photos of what we found.

How the survey changes by roof type

Single-ply membranes

Many offices, units and newer flats have a single-ply PVC or TPO roof. The survey looks at welded seams, edges, fixings and signs of damage.

EPDM rubber

A rubber roof can last 30 to 50 years, provided its details were done well. We look closely at each of those details.

Landlord and commercial surveys in Tuesley

Freeholders and residents’ companies use a roof report to plan and budget, with the most urgent items set out first.

Businesses and commercial landlords can book us too, from shops and offices to industrial units. Larger roofs take longer.

Flat roof surveys in Tuesley: local notes

The wider area around Tuesley has a long history of building, with Loseley Park about 3.4 miles north. Older roofs in the wider area can hide decades of patch repairs, so the detail matters. Older houses across Surrey frequently have handmade clay tiles, and many have tile-hanging. Some old buildings in Surrey and Sussex have Horsham stone slab roofs. Flat roofs on extensions, dormers, garages and business units are found alongside them almost everywhere.

If you live in an older home near St John the Evangelist's Church, flat-roofed rear additions and dormers added over the years are worth checking. Landlords with a home close to Milford (Surrey) station may find that flat roofs on let property tend to be checked only when they fail, which is the costly way round. Take a building like Godalming College: large flat roofs, common on schools and other public buildings, need their outlets, upstands and coverings checked regularly.

Getting in touch

These details help when you contact us:

  • Any photos you have, taken from the ground or a window
  • Your timetable, such as an exchange date
  • Any marks or damp showing indoors
  • The address and postcode of the property

If you have photos of the roof, send them over. Pictures from ground level or a window are fine, and please do not climb up for a closer look. To send them or to book, call 07833 053749 or use the contact form.

What we cannot see

No survey can tell you everything, and it is better to know them up front. Keep these in mind:

  • Whether old sheeting or boards contain asbestos
  • Whether the deck or joists are strong enough
  • Areas we can’t see or reach safely, including fragile rooflights and sheeting

If in doubt, call 07833 053749 or send us an email and we will suggest the right survey. What our survey covers.

Roofs we survey in Tuesley

  • Single-ply membranes
  • Upstands and outlets
  • EPDM rubber
  • Felt flat roofs
  • Mastic asphalt
  • GRP fibreglass

Before and after the survey

Here are a few things we’d tell any owner, before and after a survey:

  • Check ceilings under the roof for damp patches
  • Plan a survey before the covering reaches the end of its usual life
  • Treat rooflights and old sheeting as fragile
  • Ask whoever fits equipment on the roof to make good the covering

Landlords, owners and managing agents can keep the report as a dated record of the roof. It’s useful when planning upkeep and setting budgets, and it makes changes easy to spot at the next survey.

After heavy rain, look at the roof from an upstairs window if you can. Water still lying a day or two later is worth getting looked at.
