Landlord roof survey in Appleshaw
A roof over tenants or leaseholders often gets attention only when water comes in. A condition survey lets you find problems before they become leaks so work can be planned, not rushed. You get a written report with photos that you can keep with the building’s records. Many landlords and agents repeat it every few years to keep maintenance plans current. Typical surveys look at damaged party-wall upstands or parapets and damp or stains in top-floor flats, on blocks of flats, shared roofs and flat roofs on blocks.
Some older homes in villages like Appleshaw are listed or in a conservation area. If yours is, re-roofing in different materials may need consent, so the council is the place to check. A roof report helps you plan work with that in mind. Where a building is listed, matching the existing roof materials is often expected.
Report times depend on the survey you book: Basic within 48 hours, Standard in 24–48 hours and Premium the same day.

Landlord roof surveys in Appleshaw: local notes
If your home is older, it is worth knowing whether it’s listed or in a conservation area before planning roof work. Listed building consent covers changes to a listed building’s special interest, and an Article 4 direction can bring extra controls in a conservation area. Some Hampshire villages still have thatched roofs. Slate and clay tile are the usual coverings on older South East houses, with concrete tiles on many later estates. Whichever you have, the details that tend to fail before the covering itself get the closest look.
For site and facilities teams at buildings such as Appleshaw St Peter's CofE Primary School, a written record of a large roof helps plan work for the holidays rather than in term time. For an older house near a landmark such as Church of St Peter in the Wood, its chimney, valleys and lead work are likely to be the parts that need attention first.

How the survey changes by roof type
Shared chimney stacks
Shared stacks need everyone involved to agree work and the report helps with that.
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.
What happens on the day
The visit usually starts outside and finishes in the loft: first the slopes, edges and gutters from every safe viewpoint, then the roof space where it can be reached. In total, it takes between one and two hours for a single let house, with blocks of flats taking longer. Somewhere as small as Appleshaw, access is often the only tricky part. Mention any outbuildings, barns or garages you want included, and anything about the roof you already know. Visits can be on weekdays, Saturdays or Sundays.
- We agree which roofs and which parts of the building are included.
- You or your agent arrange access to the roof space and any flats we need to enter.
- We inspect each roof from safe vantage points, the roof space and the roof itself where safe.
- Every defect we find is photographed and given a priority where relevant.
- The report sets out condition and recommendations to help you plan.
Before we arrive
- Make a note of anything you’d like us to look at
- Buyers: confirm access with the estate agent or seller

Appleshaw: your questions answered
Is Appleshaw within the area you cover?
Yes. Appleshaw is within the area we cover, which takes in towns, villages and rural addresses. We survey roofs across London and the South East. Just mention lanes, gates or anything else about the route as you book.
How do I find out if my home in Appleshaw is listed?
Check Historic England’s online list first, then ask the council about conservation areas and any Article 4 direction. It matters most if you’re planning to re-roof in a different material.
Is this survey just for landlords?
We work for landlords, letting agents, managing agents and freeholders along with residents’ and RTM management companies. Leaseholders sometimes book it as well.
Will you inspect a roof that several owners share?
Yes, we survey shared roofs often. We can only inspect neighbouring parts from where we’re allowed to be, and the report says so.
Do you need to get into the loft?
Where it’s relevant to the survey and there’s safe access, yes. A clear path to the hatch helps.
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.
Do you advise on who is responsible under the lease?
No. Who pays is usually set by the lease and we do not give legal advice. What we provide is a clear record of the roof’s condition to help those discussions.
What we are asked to look at in Appleshaw
Many blocks and converted houses have several roof types. Each wears differently and the smaller roofs are easy to forget.
Common reasons to book include:
- Loose ridge or hip tiles
- Gaps where tiles or slates have slipped
- Parapets and upstands in poor repair
- Failed flashings at walls and chimneys
For landlords with property near Andover station, a roof report between tenancies helps plan work before a small defect becomes a tenant’s leak.
What to check before booking

- Their report turnaround times

- Their drone registration, if they fly one
Why it is worth a survey now in Appleshaw
An independent report helps when owners need to agree on roof work. Without one, each party may have a different view of what’s wrong. For older village homes like those around Appleshaw, the right replacement materials aren’t always easy to find quickly. Spotting a problem early leaves room to find them.
