About our landlord roof survey in Broomhall
With a shared roof, it’s not always clear what’s wrong or where. We inspect the roof as far as it can be seen safely, including from the roof space and the flats where access is arranged. Each part of the roof is recorded with photos giving all parties the same information. We can only inspect the parts of a shared roof we’re allowed to reach. If you’ve noticed slipped or missing slates and tiles and ceiling stains reported by tenants, a survey will tell you what’s going on.
Houses in smaller places like Broomhall can face open ground, where wind and driving rain hit the roof harder. That weather tells first on ridges, verges, chimneys and flashings. A careful look shows whether anything has started to loosen. A loose ridge tile or slate gives the wind something to catch, and others soon follow.
The report records the let or shared roof as we found it on the day. It is useful right away, and a good reference for later, for instance when you want to check whether anything has changed.

Before and after the survey
A survey works best with a little help from you, before and after. Some tips:
- Have gutters and outlets cleared every year
- Survey the roof on a regular cycle
- Keep past survey reports with the building’s records
- Give residents notice before a survey
How soon the report arrives depends on the package: Basic within 48 hours, Standard in 24–48 hours and Premium the same day. Agents often choose the package that suits the building.
Check the loft hatch can be reached and opened so the roof can be checked from inside. Stored items over the hatch make checks harder.
Roofs, chimneys and gutters in Broomhall
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. Knowing the covering helps explain which parts of a roof are likely to need work first. With Botleys Mansion about 4.4 miles east, Broomhall sits in an area with a long building history. Older roofs in the wider area can hide decades of patch repairs, so the detail matters, and any change of roofing material on a listed home needs checking with the council first.
Homes near green spaces like Silwood Park can get more leaves in their gutters in autumn. If you own a rental within reach of Sunningdale station, a roof report between tenancies helps plan work before a small defect becomes a tenant’s leak. For site and facilities teams at buildings such as Sunningdale School, large buildings have long gutter runs and big roofs that need checking like any other.

What you can safely check yourself
Look up at the roof after a storm, from the ground: broken slates or tiles in the garden, gaps along the ridge or loose lead are signs to note. Leave anything above ground level to a survey.
If you have a loft with safe access, take a look inside. Take a torch and only step on boards or joists, checking for stains, damp wood or chinks of daylight.
Broomhall questions
Will you come out to Broomhall?
We do. A small place gets exactly the same survey as a big one, with the route planned beforehand.
How do I find out if my home in Broomhall is listed?
The council and Historic England’s list are the places to check. Either can affect what roof work is allowed, so it’s worth checking before planning any.
Does the report help with maintenance planning?
Yes. Recommendations are prioritised by urgency where relevant, which helps you plan work and budgets. Repair costs aren’t included, but contractors can price from it.
Do you carry professional indemnity insurance?
Professional indemnity and public liability insurance cover our surveys. If you need details for a managing agent or a building owner, just ask.
Do you need access to all the flats?
Sometimes, yes. If the roof space or a flat roof is reached through a flat, we need access to it, so residents need notice.
Do you test for asbestos?
No. We can flag materials that might contain asbestos, but confirming it is a job for a specialist asbestos surveyor. Buildings built or refurbished before 2000 may contain it.
How do I book a survey in Broomhall?

How it works
The visit has one job: to see as much of the let or shared roof as can be seen safely and record it clearly. Notes and photos go into the written report. It normally takes an hour or two at most homes; commercial roofs usually need 3–4 hours. Being in a smaller place like Broomhall does not change how the visit works: outside, inside and from any safe vantage point, in that order. It is useful to show us anything you’ve already noticed.
- 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 be seen safely.
- We photograph defects and note how urgent they look.
- You get a written report to plan maintenance and budgets.
Getting ready for the survey
- Agree roof access with the managing agent if it is shared
- Let us know about parking before the day
- Leave a clear route to the loft
Booking a survey
Buyers should book once an offer has been accepted, so you have the findings in time to act on them before you exchange. For any other survey, just phone 07833 053749 or email us when you’re ready.

Why get it checked now?
Defects caught early can often be dealt with as planned work. Waiting for a leak can mean damage to ceilings, decorations and tenants’ belongings, plus urgent call-outs. Around Broomhall, leaves and moss in gutters lead to overflowing water and damp walls. It’s easy to sort the cause early and slow to dry a damp wall.
