Landlord roof surveys for homes and businesses in Brondesbury Park
With a shared roof, it is not always clear what’s wrong or where. We look at the roof from every safe vantage point, including from the roof space and the flats where access is arranged. The report records the condition of each part giving all parties the same information. We can only inspect the parts of a shared roof we are allowed to reach. We survey flat roofs on blocks, shared roofs and blocks of flats, and the problems we are asked to look at most are splits and blisters in flat roof coverings and gaps where tiles or slates have slipped.
Many London terraces have a butterfly roof, with two slopes meeting in a central valley gutter that drains to the rear. Hidden behind the parapet, that gutter can block or split without anyone seeing it. If your home in Brondesbury Park has one, it needs checking from somewhere that can actually see it.
You receive the findings by email, easy to pass on to a roofer, an agent or an insurer. Turnaround is within 48 hours for Basic, 24–48 hours for Standard and same day for Premium.

What happens on the day
We photograph the roof as we go, so the report shows exactly what we saw. Close-ups come from the safest viewpoint available, including by drone where it’s applicable and the weather allows. A typical visit takes about one to two hours for a single let house, with blocks of flats taking longer. Many London properties are flats or terraces with no side access, so the back of the roof is often seen from upstairs windows, from inside or, where a flight is allowed, from the air. If the building has a managing agent or access rules, let us know when you book.
- First, we confirm the scope and the purpose of the report.
- You arrange access to the loft and any flats we need.
- We inspect each roof as far as it can safely be seen.
- Every defect is photographed and its urgency noted where relevant.
- A written condition report follows to help you plan.
Before the survey
- Make sure we can get to the back of the property
- Show us where any leaks or stains appear
- If you’re buying, check with the agent that we can get in

Leave it or get it looked at?
A contractor’s quote tells you what they propose to do. An independent survey tells you the roof’s condition first so you know what you’re asking contractors to price. In Brondesbury Park, as across London, an overflowing gutter soaks the wall below, which can lead to damp inside. A blocked outlet ignored for a winter or two can mean damp walls inside.
Prices start from £150, with VAT included, for a Basic Survey. The Standard Survey starts from £250 and the Premium Survey from £400, both including VAT. We confirm the price for the job before you book.
Why choose Independent Roof Survey in Brondesbury Park
- Drones and thermal imaging where applicable

Signs you need a landlord roof survey in Brondesbury Park
Many blocks and converted houses have several roof types. Each wears differently and the smaller roofs are easy to forget.
It’s worth booking a survey if you’ve seen:
- Chimney stacks in poor repair
- Splits and blisters in flat roof coverings
- Failed flashings at walls and chimneys
- Gutters overflowing onto walls
Landlords with a home close to Wembley Central station may find that knowing the condition of the roof, chimneys and gutters helps you plan work rather than react to complaints.
Choosing a roof surveyor
- Whether the price includes VAT
- What happens after the report arrives
- Which parts of the roof they’ll actually see
- Their report turnaround times
What a landlord roof survey doesn’t cover
A survey is a proper look at the let or shared roof, but it cannot do everything. Its limits include:
- The rest of the building, as a RICS Level 2 or 3 survey would
- Whether materials contain asbestos (a specialist asbestos surveyor’s job)
- Roof areas we weren’t given access to
If you’re not sure which survey you need, phone 07833 053749 or email us and we’ll give you a straight answer before booking. The full list of what we check.
What we look at
- Gutters and downpipes
- Flat roofs on blocks
- Shared roofs
- Converted houses
- Rented houses
- Blocks of flats
How the survey changes by roof type
Flat roofs on blocks and rear additions
Flat roofs are common over blocks, extensions and garages. Ponding, splits and blistering are recorded where we can see them safely.
Shared chimney stacks
A leaning or cracked stack on a shared building affects more than one owner, so a clear record helps.
Local roofs in Brondesbury Park
Alongside Victorian and Edwardian terraces, outer London has a great many interwar semis, often with hipped roofs of clay or concrete tiles. If your home in Brondesbury Park is one of them, bay roofs, hips and later dormers each have their own details. Whatever the covering, it’s often the fixings, flashings, valleys and gutters that give out first. Historic houses such as Northolt Manor, about 2.9 miles west, show how far back building in the area around Brondesbury Park goes. Older roofs in the wider area can hide decades of patch repairs, so the detail matters, and a listed home or one in a conservation area may need consent for changes of material.
Take an older house close to Church of St John: old fixings, lead flashings and tall chimneys are typical of older roofs. Homes near green spaces such as Preston Park can get more leaves in their gutters in autumn.

Common questions in Brondesbury Park
Can parking be tricky for a visit in Brondesbury Park?
London parking needs a little planning, so let us know about permits, bays or a driveway as you book. The visit is then planned around what’s available.
Is my home in Brondesbury Park listed or in a conservation area?
The council and Historic England’s list are the places to check. It is worth checking before planning roof work, as both can affect what’s allowed.
How many surveys have you done?
More than 5,000 surveys over 20+ years.
Can you survey a shared roof on a terrace or converted house?
Yes, we survey shared roofs often. Where a neighbouring roof isn’t part of the access, we can only see it from vantage points, and the report says so.
Can you survey at the weekend?
We survey on any day from Monday to Sunday, during the day, which suits people who work during the week. Just say which days work for you.
Will you check the loft?
Yes, where the survey calls for it and there’s safe access. We look for staining, damp, daylight and signs of movement.
How do I arrange a landlord roof survey in Brondesbury Park?
To arrange a survey, call 07833 053749 or email us and tell us the address and what you’d like to know. We will confirm the price and find a day that suits.
