What affects the cost of landlord roof surveys
When we price a survey, we consider:
- Whether you choose the Basic, Standard or Premium Survey
- Any need for thermal images or a drone flight
- Whether it’s a home or a commercial building
- The shape of the roof and its details
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.
Getting in touch
Before you get in touch, it is useful to have:
- Where the property is, with the postcode
- Any marks or damp showing indoors
- Whether there is a loft hatch, a shared roof or tricky access
- Any photos you have, taken from the ground or a window
Buyers should book once an offer has been accepted, so there is time to use the report before exchange. Otherwise, simply phone 07833 053749 or email us whenever suits you.
Landlord roof surveys for homes and businesses in Bramdean
A landlord roof survey covers the usual parts of a roof: coverings, ridges, hips, valleys, flashings, chimneys, gutters and the loft space. Flat roofs over blocks, rear additions and garages are covered too when they’re in the agreed scope. Chimney stacks, parapets and party-wall upstands are checked as far as they can be seen safely and the loft where access is safe. We survey rented houses, gutters and downpipes and shared roofs, and common reasons people get in touch are failed flashings at walls and chimneys and gutters overflowing onto walls.
Some older homes in villages like Bramdean 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. Knowing the roof’s condition helps you plan ahead with that in mind. Older materials such as clay tiles, slate and stone are often matched when work is done.
With the Standard Survey, you also get moisture detection, a structural check and a follow-up consultation. The Premium Survey adds thermal imaging, drone inspection where it applies, structural analysis and an in-person consultation.

Roof by roof
Pitched roofs on houses and blocks
Ridges, hips and verges take a lot of weather, so we look at them closely.
Party-wall upstands and parapets
We inspect the parts of a shared roof we can access and note what couldn’t be seen.
Landlord roof surveys in Bramdean: local notes
Thatch survives on some older buildings in Hampshire’s villages. Slate and clay tile are the usual coverings on older South East houses, with concrete tiles on many later estates. Whichever you have, the details that tend to fail before the covering itself get the closest look. About 1.3 miles west lies Hinton Ampner House, a reminder of how long the area around Bramdean has been built on. Older roofs in the wider area can hide decades of patch repairs, so the detail matters, and the council can say whether a home is in a conservation area.
For an older house near a landmark such as Church of St Simon and St Jude, its roof may have old fixings, lead flashings and chimneys that need a closer look.
Bramdean is about 8 miles east of Winchester, in Hampshire. Bookings from Bramdean are handled just like any other: get in touch, agree the price and pick a day. Bramdean is one of the towns and villages in Hampshire we cover. There’s also a page for Southampton.

Near you in Bramdean
Typical jobs here are in homes near The Fox Inn. For a walk, there is Shutts Copse and Beacon Hill.
Should I look at the roof myself first?
After heavy rain, check ceilings and the tops of walls for new stains. Take a photo and write down when you saw it, which helps when we look at the roof.
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. Leave anything above ground level to a survey.
What we do, step by step
Time on site depends on the size and shape of the roof; as a rough guide, the survey takes an hour or two for a house, and longer for a block or a building with several roofs. If you have questions on the day, just ask. In a hamlet or village like Bramdean, a postcode does not always lead to the right gate, so a few directions, or a note of a nearby landmark, help us arrive on time. The visit itself is the same as anywhere else.
- We agree the roofs to be surveyed and what you need the report for.
- 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.
- Every defect is photographed and its urgency noted where relevant.
- You get a written report to plan maintenance and budgets.
Preparing for the visit
- Keep pets out of the way during the survey
- Leave side gates unlocked
- Make a note of anything you’d like us to look at

Why act early in Bramdean
Finding a roof defect early typically means a smaller, planned job. Waiting for a leak can mean damage to ceilings, decorations and tenants’ belongings, plus urgent call-outs. For an older or listed building in a place like Bramdean, repairs may need matching materials and consent, so a defect found early gives time to plan the work properly.

Bramdean: your questions answered
How do I find out if my home in Bramdean is listed?
We can’t confirm that for you, but Historic England’s list and your council can. Both listing and conservation areas can limit changes of roofing material, and councils can also use Article 4 directions.
Do you cover Bramdean?
Yes, Bramdean is one of the places we work. Every survey there gets the same written report with photographs.
Will the survey cover the whole building?
No. Our survey covers the roof, not the whole building. It is not a RICS Level 2 or 3 survey or a structural engineer’s report.
Who do you carry out landlord roof surveys for?
We work for landlords, letting agents, managing agents and freeholders, as well as RTM and residents’ management companies. Leaseholders sometimes book it as well.
Can your report let us know who pays for the roof work?
No. Who pays is normally set by the lease, and that’s a legal question. Our report gives an independent record of the roof’s condition that everyone can refer to.
Can you inspect my roof with a drone?
Where it helps and it’s safe, yes. Whether we can fly on the day depends on the weather and the airspace rules. We’re a CAA-registered drone operator.
Is this an asbestos survey?
No. Asbestos surveys and sampling are not something we do. The report may flag materials that could contain asbestos on buildings built or refurbished before 2000, with a recommendation to have a specialist asbestos surveyor check before it is disturbed.
