About our landlord roof survey in Beenham Stocks
Who pays for roof work on a block depends on the lease. We can’t advise on what your lease says, but our report gives everyone an independent record of condition. That can help when owners, freeholders and agents need to agree what happens next. You get photos and written recommendations, prioritised by urgency where relevant. If you’ve noticed slipped or missing slates and tiles and cracked or leaning shared chimneys, we can find out what’s behind it, on shared roofs, converted houses and rented houses alike.
Older buildings in small places like Beenham Stocks may be listed or in a conservation area. That can affect what materials can be used when work is done, so check with the council before planning anything. Knowing the roof’s condition helps you plan ahead with that in mind. Older materials such as clay tiles, slate and stone are frequently matched when work is done.
The report records the let or shared roof as we found it on the day. That makes it useful now and a handy reference later, for instance when you want to check whether anything has changed.

Why act early in Beenham Stocks
A dated condition report is useful for the building’s records. Repeat surveys let you see how the roof is changing which helps with rolling maintenance. In a place like Beenham Stocks, a barn or garage roof left to fail puts whatever is inside at risk. It is worth including them in a survey before a winter does the damage.
A small, low roof with good viewpoints takes less time than a tall, complicated one, and the package matters as well. We’ll give you the figure before anything is booked.

Take a look at how roof surveys are priced and our case studies.
Roof by roof
Flat roofs on blocks and rear additions
Flat roofs are common over blocks, extensions and garages. Ponding, splits and blistering are recorded as far as safe access allows.
Roof spaces and lofts
Access to the loft may be through a flat or a common area, so it needs arranging.
Landlord roof surveys around Beenham Stocks
Older houses in the South East frequently have slate or clay tile roofs, while many later estates have concrete tiles, with flat-roofed extensions, dormers and garages common everywhere. Whichever you have, the details that tend to fail before the covering itself get the closest look. There are about 500,000 buildings on England’s list of listed buildings, and around 10,000 conservation areas. If your home is listed, changes that affect its special interest need listed building consent, and in a conservation area re-roofing in different materials may need permission, so the council is the place to ask.
For site and facilities teams at buildings such as Beenham Primary School, its roofs, gutters and any chimneys need the same checks as a house’s, just on a bigger scale. If you let a flat or house near Aldermaston station, the gap between tenancies is a good time to have the roof looked at. For an older house near a landmark such as Church of St Mary, its chimney, valleys and lead work are likely to be the parts that need attention first.

FAQs for Beenham Stocks
How do I find out if my home in Beenham Stocks is listed?
Check Historic England’s online list first, then ask the council about conservation areas and any Article 4 direction. It matters most if you are planning to re-roof in a different material.
Do you cover smaller places like Beenham Stocks?
Yes, Beenham Stocks is covered. We cover the whole of London and South East England, from towns to the smallest villages. The journey is planned ahead, so it is useful to know about access.
Do you survey roofs on blocks of flats?
Yes. Shared roofs just need a little more planning, with the building owner or managing agent. Mention it when you get in touch and we will plan the survey around it.
Is the report suitable for a maintenance plan?
Yes. It shows what needs attention now and what can be planned for later so you can plan spending. Repair costs are not included but it gives contractors a clear brief.
What access do you need for a block roof survey?
That depends on the layout. We may need the roof space and some or all of the top-floor flats and access is arranged by you or your agent. We tell you what’s needed when booking.
What if it rains on the day?
Light rain does not typically stop a survey. Heavy rain or strong wind can ground a drone and make the roof unsafe, so if conditions are not right we will arrange another day with you.
Do you advise on who is responsible under the lease?
No. The lease normally decides who is responsible and we do not give legal advice. Our report gives an independent record of the roof’s condition to help those discussions.
Useful tips for Beenham Stocks property owners
A survey works best with a little help from you, before and after. Tips:
- Deal with urgent items first
- Ask your managing agent about lease terms
- Keep past survey reports with the building’s records
- Give tenants a simple way to report leaks
How soon the report arrives depends on the package: within 48 hours for Basic, 24–48 hours for Standard and the same day for Premium. Pick the package that suits the building and your timescale.
Keep the roof space accessible so a surveyor can look inside the roof. Stored items over the hatch make checks harder.
How it works
When we arrive, we start by asking what you’ve noticed and what you’d like to know. We then inspect everything that can be seen safely. Most surveys take an hour or two for a house, and longer for a block or a building with several roofs. Somewhere like Beenham Stocks needs a little journey planning: tell us about narrow lanes, gates, long drives and where we can park. On the day, we inspect whatever is safely visible, inside and out.
- You let us know about the building, its roofs and any known leaks.
- We let you know which flats and hatches we need to reach.
- We check coverings, flashings, gutters and chimneys where they can be seen.
- We note what couldn’t be seen as well as what could.
- Findings and recommendations are set out with photographs.
Preparing for the visit
- Buyers: confirm access with the estate agent or seller
- Point out any leaks or damp patches
- Agree roof access with the managing agent if it is shared
Booking a survey
Photos help, if you have them. Pictures from the ground or a window are fine. To send them or to book, ring 07833 053749 or email us.

What else we do in Beenham Stocks
Should I look at the roof myself first?
The one thing to avoid is getting up close. Roofs are fragile and slippery. That is where a survey comes in.
Look up at the roof after a storm, from the ground: pieces of tile or slate on the ground, a gap in the ridge or a lifted flashing are all worth noting. Do not go up yourself.
