How a landlord roof survey works in Bandonhill
The lease usually decides who is responsible for the roof and who pays. We cannot advise on what your lease says but we can give you an independent record of the roof’s condition. That can help when owners, freeholders and agents need to agree what happens next. The report sets out what we saw, with photographs and recommendations. Common reasons to book are ponding or splits on flat roofs and damp or stains in top-floor flats, across blocks of flats, rented houses and converted houses.
Victorian and Edwardian terraces are found right across London, many with Welsh slate roofs, shared chimney stacks and parapet or valley gutters. Slates can last a century or more, but the nails holding them corrode, and slates slip. Homes in Bandonhill are no exception. Lead flashings and shared chimney stacks on these houses need a careful look too.
The Standard Survey adds moisture detection, a structural check and a follow-up consultation. The Premium Survey goes further, with thermal imaging, drone inspection where it applies, structural analysis and an in-person consultation.

Prices for landlord roof surveys in Bandonhill
Prices vary from roof to roof, and it comes down to:
- Chimneys, valleys, parapets and other details
- Basic, Standard or Premium
- The type of building, from a house to a block or an office
- How tall the building is and how easy the roof is to see
A small, low roof with good viewpoints takes less time than a tall, complicated one, and the package you pick makes a difference too. We’ll give you the figure before anything is booked.
Getting in touch
Before you get in touch, it is useful to have:
- Whether there’s a loft hatch, a shared roof or tricky access
- Where water is showing inside, if it is
- Any deadline, such as an exchange date
- The address and postcode of the property
Once you know what you need, phone 07833 053749 or send us an email. We will suggest a package, agree the price and find a date.
Why act early in Bandonhill
Water that gets into one flat can affect others below. Spotting roof defects early helps protect the whole building. Blocked gutters and hoppers on London houses overflow and soak brickwork. A small blockage left for a few winters becomes a damp problem.
Larger roofs, taller buildings and commercial roofs take longer, so they’re priced to match. You will know the figure before booking.

What you can safely check yourself
Keep a simple record: when leaks happen, ground-level photos and any past roof work. Send it with your enquiry and it will help the survey.
Fresh stains on ceilings or walls after rain are worth noting. Take a photo and write down when you saw it, which helps when we look at the roof.
Your questions about landlord roof surveys in Bandonhill
How do I find out if my home in Bandonhill is listed?
For listing, use Historic England’s list; for conservation areas, ask the council. The answer matters most when a change of material is on the cards.
Can a landlord with a rental near Waddon station book a roof survey?
Yes. We survey roofs for landlords, letting agents and managing agents as well as owners. You can ring 07833 053749 or use the contact form with the address and what you need.
Will you check the loft?
If there’s a loft and safe access to it, yes. The loft space can show things the outside can’t, like damp timbers, staining or daylight.
How do I arrange a landlord roof survey in Bandonhill?
Just call 07833 053749 or send us an email with the address. We will ask a few questions, confirm the price and agree a date.
Can we use the survey to plan a roof budget?
Yes. Recommendations are prioritised by urgency where relevant so you can plan spending. It doesn’t include repair cost estimates, but contractors can price from it.
Do you use drones?
Yes, where it’s applicable. Our sub-250g drone is flown by a CAA-registered operator with a Flyer ID and Operator ID, and the airspace and weather are checked before every flight.
Do you survey roofs on blocks of flats?
Yes. A shared roof needs access agreed first. Let us know about it when you book and we’ll plan the survey around it.
What a landlord roof survey doesn’t cover
No survey can tell you everything, and we’d rather be clear about that before booking. Keep these in mind:
- Confirming asbestos in older roof materials
- Responsibility under a lease
- Areas behind locked flats or blocked hatches
If you’re not sure which survey you need, call 07833 053749 or email us and we’ll give you a straight answer before booking. What a survey covers and does not.
What we look at
- Shared roofs
- Blocks of flats
- Flat roofs on blocks
- Converted houses
- Rented houses
- Gutters and downpipes
Landlord roof surveys in Bandonhill: local notes
Historic houses such as Addington Palace, about 4 miles east, show how far back building in the area around Bandonhill goes. Period homes nearby can have lead valleys, tall chimneys and a patchwork of past repairs, and the council can say whether a home is in a conservation area. In outer London, interwar semis with hipped, tiled roofs sit alongside older slate-roofed terraces. Bay roofs, hip ridges and dormers from later loft conversions are the details that set these houses apart. On roofs like these, good slates or tiles can outlast the nails, battens, lead and mortar around them.
Bandonhill is in London, so parking needs planning: let us know about parking bays, permits or a driveway as you book. If you let a flat or house near Waddon station, a roof report helps you deal with small faults before they turn into a call from a tenant. If you look after a building such as High View Primary School, long gutter runs and wide roofs on a building that size are worth checking on a regular cycle.

Before and after the survey
These tips come from what we see on roofs every week:
- Arrange flat access beforehand
- Have gutters and outlets cleared every year
- File each roof report for future reference
- Ask residents to report damp straight away
Questions about who pays under the lease are for your managing agent or a solicitor. Our report sets out the roof’s condition to help those discussions.
Deal with the high-priority defects quickly and schedule the others. Small roof defects tend to grow.
What happens on the day
We work from the outside in: outside views come first, then the roof space if there is safe access. In total, it takes between one and two hours for a single let house, with blocks of flats taking longer. From the street, a London terrace typically shows only its front slope or parapet, so in Bandonhill we work round the house, using the street, the windows, the loft and any safe vantage point behind it. If other people live in the building, let us know who can let us into the shared parts.
- You tell us about the building, its roofs and any known leaks.
- We confirm the access we will need.
- The roofs are inspected from the ground, vantage points, the roof space and the roof where safe.
- We note what couldn’t be seen as well as what could.
- You receive photos and recommendations, prioritised where relevant.
Getting ready for the survey
- Dig out any old roof reports or invoices
- Leave a clear route to the loft
- Show us where any leaks or stains appear
Book a survey
If you have photos of the roof, send them over. Pictures from ground level or a window are fine, and please do not climb up for a closer look. To get started, ring 07833 053749 or send us an email.
