Landlord roof survey in Anna Valley: what you get
A landlord roof survey covers the usual parts of a roof: coverings, ridges, hips, valleys, flashings, chimneys, gutters and the loft space. Flat roofs over blocks, rear additions and garages are covered too when they’re in the agreed scope. Chimney stacks, parapets and party-wall upstands are checked as far as they can safely be seen, along with the loft space where there’s safe access. We survey shared roofs, gutters and downpipes and blocks of flats, and people most frequently book us about chimney stacks in poor repair and ponding or splits on flat roofs.
In a village or hamlet like Anna Valley, older cottages and farmhouses frequently sit alongside barns, outbuildings and a few newer houses. Older roofs may be clay tile, slate, stone or thatch, often with chimneys that have stood a long time. We report on everything that’s safely in view, and thatch is a specialist material. On older roofs, it is normally the chimneys and lead flashings that need work first.
Pictures do a lot of the work in our reports, so you can see each defect rather than just read about it. Anything out of sight on the day is listed as such.

Why get it checked now?
A leak in a block rarely stays in one place. Spotting roof defects early helps protect the whole building. Where a roof is exposed, as many are in small places like Anna Valley, driving rain gets into any weakness, and older walls, once damp, take a long time to dry.
The Premium Survey includes thermal imaging and drone inspection where it applies, which starts from £400, with VAT included. We will tell you which package suits the questions you have.

Common questions in Anna Valley
Can a landlord with a rental near Andover station book a roof survey?
Of course. We just need to know who will give access, and we can send the report to you or your agent.
Does a conservation area affect roof work in Anna Valley?
We can’t confirm that for you, but Historic England’s list and your council can. A change of roofing material may need consent in either case, and councils can also use Article 4 directions.
Do you survey roofs on blocks of flats?
Yes, as long as access is agreed. Roofs over flats are frequently shared, so whoever owns or manages the building needs to agree access. We inspect only the parts we are allowed to reach.
Can we use the survey to plan a roof budget?
Yes. Recommendations are prioritised by urgency where relevant so you can plan spending. Repair costs are not included, but contractors can price from it.
Can you inspect my roof with a drone?
Yes, where it is applicable. Whether we can fly on the day depends on the weather and the airspace rules, and we check for restrictions near airports before flying. We hold a CAA Flyer ID and Operator ID.
How long is the visit?
That depends on the size and shape of the roof, but most surveys take roughly 1–2 hours at a typical home, though large, tall or awkward roofs take more time. The report is sent afterwards by email.
Are you insured?
Professional indemnity and public liability insurance cover our surveys. If you need details for a managing agent or a building owner, just ask.
Roof by roof
Flat roofs on blocks and rear additions
Many blocks and rear additions have flat roofs. We look for ponding, splits, blisters and tired upstands where we can see them safely.
Roof spaces and lofts
Access to the loft may be through a flat or a common area and you’ll need to arrange it.
How the survey works
The aim of the visit is simple: to see as much of the let or shared roof as can be seen safely and record it clearly. Everything we note and photograph goes into the written report. It typically takes between one and two hours for a house, and longer for a block or a building with several roofs. Older roofs in small places like Anna Valley can have low, tight loft spaces, so tell us about the loft hatch and any ladder. We only go where it is safe.
- First, we confirm the roofs and areas to be surveyed.
- We confirm which flats and loft spaces we need to get into, and you arrange access.
- We inspect each roof from safe vantage points, the loft space and the roof itself where safe.
- Defects are photographed and their urgency noted.
- We send a written report you can use to plan maintenance and budgets.
Preparing for the visit
- Make a note of anything you’d like us to look at
- Clear the way to the loft hatch
- Point out any leaks or damp patches

DIY checks: what’s safe
Look up at the roof after a storm, from the ground: broken slates or tiles in the garden, gaps along the ridge or loose lead are signs to note. Do not go up yourself.
It is useful to keep a record: when leaks happen, ground-level photos and any past roof work. Send it with your enquiry and it will help the survey.
Landlords, agents and block managers in Anna Valley
Letting agents often book on a landlord’s behalf, with the report sent to whoever needs it. Access is agreed with the tenant ahead of time.
A roof problem in a let property affects your tenants as well as the building. A survey helps you spot issues early and plan the work with less disruption.
Roofs, chimneys and gutters in Anna Valley
There are about 500,000 buildings on England’s list of listed buildings, and around 10,000 conservation areas. If your home is listed, changes that affect its special interest need listed building consent, and in a conservation area re-roofing in different materials may need permission, so check with the council. A number of Hampshire villages keep thatched roofs on their older buildings. Slate and clay tile are the usual coverings on older South East houses, with concrete tiles on many later estates. Whatever the covering, it’s often the fixings, flashings, valleys and gutters that give out first.
If you own a rental within reach of Andover station, the gap between tenancies is a good time to have the roof looked at. Anyone responsible for a site like Balksbury Junior School will know that large buildings have long gutter runs and big roofs that need checking like any other. For an older house near a landmark such as Church of All Saints, its chimney, valleys and lead work are likely to be the parts that need attention first.
