Our landlord roof survey service in Buckinghamshire

Our landlord roof survey gives you a clear picture of a roof’s condition, written up so you can plan. We work for landlords, letting agents, managing agents and freeholders along with RTM and residents’ management companies. The report covers defects, photos and recommendations set out by urgency where relevant. The survey covers the roof, not the whole building. We are often asked to look into chimney stacks in poor repair and ceiling stains reported by tenants, on shared roofs, rented houses and flat roofs on blocks.

Before we start, tell us why you’ve booked: buying, a leak, storm damage, new work or just wanting to know where things stand. It helps us focus on what matters most to you. Most visits take an hour or two for a house, and longer for a block or a building with several roofs.

We agree the roofs to be surveyed and what you need the report for.
You arrange access to the loft and any flats we need.
Each roof is checked from safe vantage points and inside where possible.
Every defect is photographed and its urgency noted where relevant.
You get a written report to plan maintenance and budgets.

Homes and roofs across Buckinghamshire

Older homes across Buckinghamshire often keep chimney stacks long after the fires went out, and their flashings and pointing need checking like any other part of the roof. Valleys, gutters and fixings follow close behind.

London and the South East mix slate and clay tile roofs on older homes with concrete tiles on many later ones. That variety shapes every survey in Buckinghamshire.

Aylesbury: If you look after a building such as Buckinghamshire UTC, large buildings have long gutter runs and big roofs that need checking like any other. Shop and office owners around Friars Square may find that a dated report on the roof is useful for planning and for any lease discussions.

How we price landlord roof surveys

To price your survey, we look at:

Features like valleys, chimneys, dormers and parapets
Roof area
Basic, Standard or Premium
House, block, shop or office

The Premium Survey includes thermal imaging and drone inspection where applicable, which starts from £400, with VAT included. We will tell you which package suits the questions you have.

Helping us price your survey

A few details help us point you to the right survey and price. When you get in touch, it is useful to mention:

Your postcode, so we can check access and travel
Your timetable, like an exchange date
What kind of property and roof it is
What made you get in touch

To book a survey, call 07833 053749 or drop us an email with the address and what you’d like to know about the roof. You will know the price before anything is booked.

Why act early?

A planned maintenance budget needs real information. Our report separates urgent items from those that can wait, so spending can be spread sensibly.

Before booking any surveyor

Whether they hold professional indemnity and public liability insurance
How they plan to inspect the roof safely
Which limits apply to the survey
Whether you can ask questions once you have the report

Should I look at the roof myself first?

The one thing to avoid is getting up close. Slates, tiles, flat roofs and rooflights can give way, and a fall can be serious. That is where a survey comes in.

During heavy rain, look at the gutters from ground level or a window. Overflowing water can be a sign of a blockage or a gutter that has dropped.

When you need someone else

Some things can’t be seen without opening up the roof, and that sets some limits:

The rest of the building, as a RICS Level 2 or 3 survey would
Asbestos testing of roof sheets or soffits
The structure in the way a structural engineer would assess it

Your questions about landlord roof surveys in Buckinghamshire

Can you survey a shared roof on a terrace or converted house?

Yes, we survey shared roofs often. We can only inspect neighbouring parts from where we are allowed to be and we’ll say so.

Will you fly a drone over my roof?

Where it helps and it’s safe, yes. Whether we can fly on the day depends on the weather and the airspace rules. We are a CAA-registered drone operator.

Does the report help with maintenance planning?

Yes, that’s one of the main reasons clients book. A repeat survey later shows how the roof has changed to keep your plan up to date.

What access do you need for a block roof survey?

We may do. If the roof space or a flat roof is reached through a flat, we need access to it so please give residents notice.

Can you survey in bad weather?

Light rain is normally fine; heavy rain and wind are different. Strong wind or a downpour can make access unsafe and ground a drone, so we’d move the date with you.

Can you tell me if my roof has asbestos?

No. We can flag materials that might contain asbestos, but only a specialist asbestos surveyor can confirm it. It may be present in buildings built or refurbished before 2000.

What insurance do you have?

Our surveys are covered by professional indemnity and public liability insurance. Ask if you need details for a managing agent or building owner.
