Landlord roof surveys for homes and businesses in Bepton Common
A roof condition report helps you plan maintenance and set budgets. It shows what needs attention now and what can be planned for later, as far as can be judged from what’s visible. It does not give repair costs but contractors can price from it. Anything urgent is made clear, so you can act on them first and plan the rest over the coming years. If you’re worried about loose ridge or hip tiles and cracked or lifting flashings, we can find out what’s behind it.
Some older homes in villages like Bepton Common are 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. A roof report helps you plan work with that in mind. Older materials such as clay tiles, slate and stone are often matched when work is done.
We keep jargon out of it: if work is needed, the report says so clearly.

Common questions in Bepton Common
Does a conservation area affect roof work in Bepton Common?
You can check whether a building is listed on Historic England’s list, and your council can tell you if it is 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.
Do you cover smaller places like Bepton Common?
Yes, Bepton Common is covered. Our area covers London and South East England, from towns to the smallest villages. Longer journeys are simply planned beforehand.
How much is a landlord roof survey?
Our price is from £150, including VAT. The building’s size, roofs and access all affect the price. For a price, phone 07833 053749 or email us.
What’s the best way to book?
Simply ring 07833 053749 or email us. After a few questions, we confirm the price and fix a day.
Can you survey at the weekend?
Surveys run on any day of the week. To find a day that suits you, phone 07833 053749 or drop us an email.
Will you inspect a roof that several owners share?
Yes. We survey what we can access and see safely. Areas we couldn’t see are noted in the report.
Do you survey roofs on blocks of flats?
Yes, if whoever owns or manages the building agrees access. On a shared roof we can only inspect the parts we’re allowed to reach.
Practical tips
Getting the most from a landlord roof survey starts before we arrive and carries on afterwards. Tips:
- Get legal advice on lease responsibilities
- Keep the loft hatch clear and reachable
- Make leak reporting easy for tenants
- Don’t wait for a leak to survey the roof
If anything in the report needs explaining, ask us. With the Standard Survey there’s a follow-up consultation and the Premium Survey an in-person one.
Act on urgent items in the report first, and plan the rest. Small roof defects tend to grow.
Landlord roof surveys in Bepton Common: local notes
Many older homes in Sussex have handmade clay tiles and tile-hung walls. Horsham stone slab roofs survive on some old Sussex buildings. Whichever you have, the details that tend to fail before the covering itself get the closest look. The wider area around Bepton Common has a long history of building, with Cowdray House about 1.3 miles north-east. Older roofs in the wider area can hide decades of patch repairs, so the detail matters.
For site and facilities teams at buildings like Midhurst CofE Primary School, its roofs, gutters and any chimneys need the same checks as a house’s, just on a bigger scale.

What happens on the day
After the inspection, everything we found is written up as a written report with photographs, sent to you by email. On timing, most surveys take an hour or two for a house, or half a day or so for a commercial building. Older roofs in small places like Bepton Common can have low, tight loft spaces, so it helps to know whether there is a loft hatch and how easy it is to reach. Only areas that can be reached safely are inspected.

- We let you know which flats and hatches we need to reach.

- The report records areas we couldn’t access.
- You receive photos and recommendations, prioritised where relevant.
Before the survey

Booking is simple: just ring 07833 053749 or send us an email and give us some details about the property and we’ll suggest the right survey. The price is agreed up front.
Related advice
Signs you need a landlord roof survey in Bepton Common
Reports of leaks or damp from tenants often lead to a survey. The survey helps show whether the roof, gutters or flashings are involved, as far as can be seen.
Most people get in touch when they’ve noticed something like this:
- Standing water on a flat roof
- Failed flashings at walls and chimneys
- Mortar falling from ridges and verges
- Gaps where tiles or slates have slipped
The streets around a church such as Roman Catholic Church of Divine Motherhood are often among the oldest in a place, and if your home is one of the older ones nearby, corroded nails, tired lead and weathered chimney pointing are the things to watch on older roofs.
Questions to ask before booking
- Their track record with similar roofs
- Whether the price includes VAT
- Which limits apply to the survey
- Whether you get a written report with photos
Should I look at the roof myself first?
After strong wind, take a look from the pavement or garden: pieces of tile or slate on the ground, a gap in the ridge or a lifted flashing are all worth noting. Don’t go up yourself.
It helps to keep a record: when leaks happen, ground-level photos and any past roof work. Share it with us when booking, as it helps us focus the survey.
