About our landlord roof survey in Beenham
Roofs on let houses and blocks of flats are easy to forget until something leaks. Surveying the roof first helps you spot defects early so work can be planned, not rushed. The findings come in a written report with photos that you can keep with the building’s records. Many clients repeat the survey on a rolling basis to keep maintenance plans current. If you’ve noticed cracked or leaning shared chimneys and loose ridge or hip tiles, a survey will tell you what’s going on, on converted houses, rented houses and shared roofs alike.
In a small place like Beenham, many roofs stand in the open, so ridges, chimney stacks, flashings and gutters work hard. Damp in old walls is slow to dry, so a small leak can do a lot of harm. A written report sets out what to deal with and in what order. On exposed older roofs, chimneys and lead flashings are often the first to give way.
The report works through the roof section by section, from the coverings down to the gutters, with a note and a photo for each point. You’ll see the good as well as the bad.

Do you need a landlord roof survey in Beenham?
A single building may have pitched roofs, flat roofs and rear additions. They all age at different rates and the smaller roofs are easy to forget.

- Parapets and upstands in poor repair
- Failed flashings at walls and chimneys
- Ceiling stains reported by tenants
- Gutters overflowing onto walls
Landlords with a home close to Aldermaston station may find that a dated record of the roof is useful when planning maintenance across a let.

Landlord roof surveys around Beenham
If your home is older, it is worth knowing whether it is listed or in a conservation area before planning roof work. Listed building consent covers changes to a listed building’s special interest, and an Article 4 direction can bring extra controls in a conservation area. Older houses in the South East often have slate or clay tile roofs, while many later estates have concrete tiles, and flat-roofed additions turn up almost everywhere. Knowing the covering helps explain which parts of a roof are likely to need work first.
For site and facilities teams at buildings such as Beenham Primary School, large buildings have long gutter runs and big roofs that need checking like any other. Take an older house close to Church of St Mary: old fixings, lead flashings and tall chimneys are typical of older roofs.

Your questions about landlord roof surveys in Beenham
Is my home in Beenham listed or in a conservation area?
You can check whether a building is listed on Historic England’s list, and your council can tell you if it’s in a conservation area. If a 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.
Is Beenham within the area you cover?
Yes, Beenham is covered. Our area covers London and the South East, from towns to the smallest villages. The journey is planned ahead, so it is useful to know about access.
Does this replace a RICS building survey?
No, it is a roof survey. It’s not a RICS Level 2 or 3 survey and doesn’t replace a structural engineer’s report.
Is this an asbestos survey?
No. We can flag materials that might contain asbestos, but only a specialist asbestos surveyor can confirm it. It may be present in buildings built or refurbished before 2000.
Will you check the loft?
Normally, if there is one and it can be reached safely. The loft space can show things the outside cannot, like damp timbers, staining or daylight.
I live in a flat. Can you survey the roof?
Yes, once access has been agreed. Roofs over flats are often shared, so the building owner or managing agent needs to agree access. We inspect only the parts we’re allowed to reach.
Can your report let us know who pays for the roof work?
No. Who pays is usually set by the lease, and that’s a legal question. What we provide is a clear record of the roof’s condition to help those discussions.
What affects the cost of landlord roof surveys
Prices vary from roof to roof, and it comes down to:
- The shape of the roof and its details
- House, block, shop or office
- How many separate roofs there are, such as extensions, dormers and garages
- Whether thermal imaging or a drone is needed
Prices start from £150, including VAT. Packages run from Basic at £150 through Standard at £250 to Premium at £400, including VAT.
Getting in touch
The more you let us know, the easier it is to price the survey. When you contact us, tell us:
- Your timetable, such as an exchange date
- What made you get in touch
- The address and postcode of the property
- Whether there is a loft hatch, a shared roof or tricky access
Surveys can be booked for weekdays, Saturdays or Sundays. To arrange a day that suits you, phone 07833 053749 or email us.
Should I look at the roof myself first?
The one thing to avoid is getting up close. Roofs are fragile and slippery, and falls from height are serious. That part is for a survey.
If you have a loft with safe access, take a look inside. Use a torch and stay on the joists or boards, and look for staining, damp timber or daylight coming through.
What we look for on each type of roof
Flat roofs on blocks and rear additions
Felt flat roofs often last around 15–20 years, so their age matters.
Roof spaces and lofts
Access to the loft may be through a flat or a common area, so it needs arranging.
What happens on the day
It’s useful to start with what’s prompted the survey: a purchase, a leak, a storm, new work or simply peace of mind. It helps us focus on what matters most to you. The visit usually takes about one to two hours on an ordinary house, though large, tall or awkward roofs take more time. For a village or hamlet like Beenham, the journey is planned beforehand: let us know about lanes, gates and parking. On the day, we inspect everything that’s safely in view, inside and out.
- 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.
- We inspect each roof as far as it can safely be seen.
- We photograph defects and note how urgent they look.
- You get a written report to plan maintenance and budgets.
Getting ready for the survey
- Let us know about parking near the property
- Gather any invoices or paperwork from past roof work
- If it isn’t your property yet, arrange access through the agent
