Landlord roof survey in Bagmore
A landlord roof survey covers the usual parts of a roof: coverings, ridges, hips, valleys, flashings, chimneys, gutters and the roof space. Flat roofs on blocks, extensions and garages are included where they’re part of the brief. 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 converted houses, shared roofs and flat roofs on blocks, and people most often book us about gaps where tiles or slates have slipped and damaged pots and flaunching.
In a village or hamlet like Bagmore, older cottages and farmhouses often sit alongside barns, outbuildings and a few newer houses. Roofs there can be clay tile, slate, stone or thatch, and chimney stacks are frequently old. We report on everything that’s safely in view, and thatch is a specialist material. On older roofs, it is typically 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.

Bagmore: your questions answered
Can a landlord with a rental near Alton station book a roof survey?
Yes. We survey roofs for landlords, letting agents and managing agents as well as owners. You can phone 07833 053749 or email us with the address and what you need.
Does a conservation area affect roof work in Bagmore?
Start with Historic England’s list for listing and your council for conservation areas. It is worth checking before planning roof work, as both can affect what’s allowed.
Does the report help with maintenance planning?
Yes. Recommendations are prioritised by urgency where relevant so you can plan spending. Repair costs are not included, but contractors can price from it.
Is this a RICS survey?
No. It is a specialist roof survey, not a RICS Level 2 or Level 3 building survey. It focuses on the roof, so it sits alongside a building survey rather than replacing it.
How long does the survey take?
Most surveys take about one to two hours for a single let house, with blocks of flats taking longer. We’ll confirm the timing when you book.
What does a roof survey cost?
Our price is from £150, including VAT. The final figure depends on the roof and the package you choose.
Does someone need to be in?
Not necessarily. An outside-only look can be arranged beforehand, but the loft and any rooms with damp need someone to let us in.
What this survey can’t tell you
Without opening up the roof, some things stay hidden, and that sets some limits:
- Areas behind locked flats or blocked hatches
- Structural calculations or an engineer’s report
- Walls, floors and services beyond the roof

What happens on the day
It is useful to start with what’s prompted the survey: 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 between one and two hours for a single let house, with blocks of flats taking longer. In a hamlet or village like Bagmore, a postcode does not always lead to the right gate, so a few directions are welcome. After that, the survey runs as it would anywhere.
- First, we confirm the roofs and areas to be surveyed.
- Access to flats and the loft space is arranged with you in advance.
- The roofs are inspected from the ground, vantage points, the roof space and the roof where it is safe.
- We photograph each defect and note how urgent it looks.
- We send a written report you can use to plan maintenance and budgets.
Getting ready for the survey
- Buyers: confirm access with the estate agent or seller
- Check we can get to the back of the property
- Agree roof access with the managing agent if it is shared
Book a survey
Getting a price is simple: just call 07833 053749 or drop us an email and give us some details about the property and we will explain which survey suits. We confirm the price before anything is booked.

Landlord roof surveys in Bagmore: local notes
Hall Place, about 3 miles south, is one of the historic houses in the wider area around Bagmore. On older houses around here, roofs often carry the marks of earlier repairs, from replaced slates to new lead, and a listed home or one in a conservation area may need consent for changes of material. 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. Each of these coverings has its own weak points, from fixings and valleys to flashings, chimneys and gutters.
If you live in an older home near Church of St. Mary, the nails, lead and mortar on the roof may be wearing out even where the slates or tiles look fine. For landlords with property near Alton station, the gap between tenancies is a good time to have the roof looked at.

How the survey changes by roof type
Party-wall upstands and parapets
Where a roof is shared with neighbours, we can only inspect what we are given access to and note what couldn’t be seen.
Flat roofs on blocks and rear additions
Many blocks and rear additions have flat roofs. Ponding, splits and blistering are recorded as far as safe access allows.

Surveys for landlords and agents in Bagmore
Buyers’ agents can book surveys on behalf of their clients. Reports are emailed, so they’re easy to pass on, photos included.
Where a roof is shared: access has to be agreed with whoever owns or manages the building. Let us know about it when booking and we will plan the visit with that in mind.
Tips from our surveys
A survey works best with a little help from you, before and after. Tips:
- Make leak reporting easy for tenants
- Keep roof outlets and gutters clear
- Ask your managing agent about lease terms
- Tell tenants when we’re coming
The report comes with photos and written recommendations ranked by urgency where relevant. It’s emailed to you so you can share it with owners, agents or contractors.
Regular roof checks beat waiting for a leak. A survey every few years suits many let and shared buildings with gutters cleared every year.
What happens if roof problems are left?
On a shared roof, disagreements are easier to settle with a clear record. Without a survey, it’s one opinion against another. Where a roof is exposed, as many are in small places like Bagmore, driving rain gets into any weakness, and damp in older walls is slow to dry out.
What a survey costs comes down to the roof itself: its size, its height, how many sections it has and how it can be reached and seen safely. Our price is from £150, including VAT.
