Landlord roof survey in Badger Farm: what you get
The lease usually decides who is responsible for the roof and who pays. We can’t advise on what your lease says but we can give you an independent record of the roof’s condition. It helps owners and managers discuss the next steps from the same facts. You get photos and written recommendations, prioritised by urgency where relevant. If you are worried about worn ridges, hips and verges and gutters overflowing onto walls, we can find out what’s behind it.
Around Badger Farm, gardens, hedges and nearby trees can mean leaves and moss end up on roofs and in gutters. Blocked gutters overflow and soak the walls below, and moss holds water against tiles. It is the kind of slow problem a roof report picks up early. Plants growing from a gutter or moss on the tiles are signs worth noting from the ground.
You receive the findings by email, easy to pass on to a roofer, an agent or an insurer. Turnaround is within 48 hours for Basic, 24–48 hours for Standard and same day for Premium.

What happens on the day
On the day, we begin with a quick chat about the roof and anything that’s worrying you. After that, we check everything we can see safely. Most surveys take an hour or two for a house, and longer for a block or a building with several roofs. A visit to Badger Farm is planned like any other: the time, the access and where to park are agreed in advance. Visits can be on weekdays, Saturdays or Sundays. Tell us about any garages, outbuildings or extensions you want included.
- First, we confirm the scope and the purpose of the report.
- You arrange access to the loft and any flats we need.
- We inspect each roof as far as it can be seen safely.
- Every defect is photographed and its urgency noted where relevant.
- A written condition report follows to help you plan.
Getting ready for the survey
- If you are buying, let the agent know when we are coming
- Dig out any old roof reports or invoices
- Keep pets in another room
Booking a survey
Buyers should book once an offer has been accepted, so there is time to use the report before exchange. Otherwise, simply phone 07833 053749 or email us whenever suits you.

Signs you need a landlord roof survey in Badger Farm
Many let properties sit under roofs that have seen decades of weather. Fixings, flashings and underlay can fail before the slates or tiles themselves, and a survey helps show where that’s happening.
Things that frequently lead to a survey include:
- Ceiling stains reported by tenants
- Failed flashings at walls and chimneys
- Gaps where tiles or slates have slipped
- Loose ridge or hip tiles
Take a building like Stanmore Primary School: its roofs, gutters and any chimneys need the same checks as a house’s, just on a bigger scale.
Choosing a roof surveyor
- Whether any drone flown is registered with the CAA
- Is there a chance to talk the report through?
- What they won’t be able to tell you
- How much experience they have with roofs like yours
How we price landlord roof surveys
Every roof is different, so prices are confirmed before booking. This is what makes a difference:
- Commercial roofs and larger buildings
- The roof’s overall size
- The shape of the roof and its details
- The height of the building and how the roof can safely be seen
We offer three survey packages: Basic from £150, Standard from £250 and Premium from £400, with VAT included. The price for your roof depends on its size, access and what you’d like to know.
Booking your survey
We’ll normally ask about:
- Whether there is a loft hatch, a shared roof or tricky access
- Any deadline, such as an exchange date
- The reason for the survey, such as buying, a leak or storm damage
- Pictures of the roof from a safe spot, if you have them
If you have photos of the roof, send them over. Take them safely from ground level or a window, and please don’t climb up for a closer look. To send them or to book, phone 07833 053749 or email us.
Landlord roof surveys around Badger Farm
Thatch survives on some older buildings in Hampshire’s villages. In this part of the South East, older roofs are mostly slate or clay tile and many newer ones concrete tile. Whatever the covering, it’s often the fixings, flashings, valleys and gutters that give out first. An older home may be listed, or stand in a conservation area. Historic England’s list shows listed buildings, and the council can say whether a street is in a conservation area. In either case, a change of roofing material may need consent.
Homes near green spaces such as St. Cross Park can get more leaves in their gutters in autumn, and an overflowing gutter soon means a wet wall. If you let a flat or house near Winchester station, a roof report helps you deal with small faults before they turn into a call from a tenant.

Questions from Badger Farm
Does a conservation area affect roof work in Badger Farm?
The council and Historic England’s list are the places to check. It is worth checking before planning roof work, as both can affect what’s allowed.
Do you survey roofs for landlords with property near Winchester station?
Yes, that’s a common request. We just need to know who will give access, and we can send the report to you or your agent.
I live in a flat. Can you survey the roof?
Yes, once whoever controls the roof agrees access. We look at the parts we are given access to, and the report makes that clear.
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.
Which days do you carry out surveys?
We survey seven days a week: weekdays, Saturdays and Sundays. Just tell us the days that suit you.
Will you go up on the roof?
Only when it is safe. Some roofs are too steep or fragile to walk on safely. Safe viewpoints, the loft and a drone where it applies let us see the rest, and the report records anything we couldn’t see.
Do you work in Badger Farm?
Yes, we do. Badger Farm is part of the area we cover, and the service is the same as everywhere else we work.
For landlords and managing agents
Roof problems in a rented home affect tenants as well as the building. A survey shows what needs attention, so you can plan the work.
Managing agents and residents’ management companies use roof surveys to plan maintenance. The report sets out what needs attention now and what can wait.
What happens if roof problems are left?
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. Homes in smaller places like Badger Farm can face more weather, so a loose ridge or verge soon lets rain in. Wind gets under it and lifts more, and water follows.
The cost of a survey depends on the roof: its size, its height, how many sections it has and how safely it can be seen. Our price is from £150, including VAT.

How the survey changes by roof type
Shared chimney stacks
Chimneys often let water in at the flashings. We note what we can see.
Party-wall upstands and parapets
A parapet can hide a gutter that is hard to see. They’re checked where safe access allows.
