How we price landlord roof surveys

- How complicated the roof is, with its valleys, chimneys and parapets
- If the survey needs thermal imaging or a drone

Landlord roof survey in Bagshot
Some landlords book a survey when they buy a property to let, or after a tenant reports a leak. Agents and freeholders frequently want a survey for a rolling maintenance plan. Whatever the reason, the report follows the same clear format with photographs and recommendations. Surveys are carried out on weekdays and at weekends, which can make access easier to arrange. We are often asked to look into failed flashings at walls and chimneys and standing water on a flat roof, on converted houses, blocks of flats and gutters and downpipes.
Around Bagshot, gardens, hedges and nearby trees can mean leaves and moss end up on roofs and in gutters. Once gutters and outlets block, water spills over and soaks the walls. 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 ground level.
The report doesn’t just list problems. It explains what we found, why it matters and what we recommend, so you can decide what to do next.

How it works
We will ask a few questions first, about the roof’s history, any leaks and past repairs. The inspection then takes between one and two hours at a typical home, and about three to four hours for a commercial roof. With a bit of garden around a house, as there often is around Bagshot, the roof can be viewed from several angles. Mention any side of the property we cannot get to. The loft, where there is safe access, completes the picture.
- First, we confirm the scope and the purpose of the report.
- Access to flats and the roof space is arranged by you or your agent.
- Each roof is looked at from safe vantage points and inside where possible.
- We photograph defects and note how urgent they look.
- You get a written report to plan maintenance and budgets.
Before the survey
- Keep pets in another room
- If you’re buying, check with the agent that we can get in
- Tell us about parking before the day

Local roofs in Bagshot
In Surrey, older roofs are often handmade clay tile, with tile-hanging on many upper walls. A few of Surrey’s oldest buildings have heavy Horsham stone slab roofs. Whichever you have, the details that tend to fail before the covering itself get the closest look. 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. Re-roofing in different materials may need permission there.
For site and facilities teams at buildings such as Bagshot Infant School, a written record of a large roof helps plan work for the holidays rather than in term time. If you live in an older home near The Brook Church, its chimney, valleys and lead work are likely to be the parts that need attention first.
Bagshot is about 2 miles north-east of Camberley, in Surrey. From houses to flats and shops in Bagshot, the roof can be surveyed. Our area takes in places right across Surrey. Our Guildford page covers surveys nearby.

Why get it checked now?
Budgets work best when they’re based on the roof’s actual condition. A survey shows what needs attention now and what can be planned for later, so spending can be spread sensibly. In an older home around Bagshot, water from a roof defect can get into timber and plaster, which is far harder to put right than the roof fault itself.
A Basic Survey starts from £150, inc. VAT. Standard is from £250 and Premium from £400. We confirm the price for your roof before you book.

Before and after the survey
A survey works best with a little help from you, before and after. Tips:
- Don’t wait for a leak to survey the roof
- Do not store items over the loft hatch
- Book gutter clearing at least once a year
- Deal with urgent items first
If you need to share the findings with leaseholders or a board, the photos help. The report is written in plain language.
Ask tenants and residents to report damp, stains or drips promptly. The sooner you know, the smaller the problem normally is.
Roof by roof
Pitched roofs on houses and blocks
Slate and tiled pitched roofs are common on let and shared buildings. Coverings, ridges, hips, valleys and flashings are inspected where it is safe to see them.
Party-wall upstands and parapets
A parapet can hide a gutter that’s hard to see. They’re checked where safe access allows.
Your questions about landlord roof surveys in Bagshot
Do you survey roofs for landlords with property near Bagshot station?
Yes, that’s a common request. Let us know whether a tenant or an agent will let us in, and the report can go straight to you or your agent.
Do you cover smaller places like Bagshot?
Yes, smaller places are covered as well as towns. We survey roofs across London and South East England. Let us know about access, parking and anything unusual about getting there as you book.
Will you check the loft?
If there’s a loft and safe access to it, yes. From inside, the underside of the roof frequently shows damp, staining or daylight that cannot be seen from outside.
Can you tell me if my roof has asbestos?
No. We can flag materials that might contain asbestos, but confirming it is a job for a specialist asbestos surveyor. It may be present in buildings built or refurbished before 2000.
Does the report help with maintenance planning?
Yes, that is one of the main reasons clients book. Surveying again later shows what has changed to keep your plan up to date.
Does the weather affect the survey?
It can, depending on the survey. Drone flights need calm, dry weather, and thermal imaging works best after a sunny day, with a dry roof and little wind. We will rearrange with you if the weather is not right.
How long will you be at the property?
Time on site depends on the roof; most visits take about 1–2 hours for a single let house, with blocks of flats taking longer. The written report follows by email.
Do you need a landlord roof survey in Bagshot?
Many blocks and converted houses have several roof types. They all age at different rates and the smaller roofs are easy to forget.
Typical things we’re asked to look at include:
- Cracked or lifting flashings
- Worn ridges, hips and verges
- Leaking joints at party walls
- Leaks into upper flats
For landlords with property near Bagshot station, knowing the condition of the roof, chimneys and gutters helps you plan work rather than react to complaints.
Before you book any roof surveyor
- Whether any drone flown is registered with the CAA
- Which parts of the roof they’ll actually see
- Whether you get a written report with photos
- Whether VAT is added on top
