Landlord roof survey in Broxhill: what you get
Who pays for roof work on a block depends on the lease. We can’t advise on what your lease says, but our report gives everyone an independent record of condition. It helps owners and managers discuss the next steps from the same facts. You get photos and written recommendations, prioritised by urgency where relevant. If you’ve noticed cracked or leaning shared chimneys and missing or loose roof coverings, a survey will tell you what’s going on, on shared roofs, gutters and downpipes and converted houses alike.
Older buildings in small places like Broxhill may be listed or in a conservation area. If yours is, re-roofing in different materials may need consent, so the council is the place to check. 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.
After the visit, you get a report with photos, emailed to you. It explains the condition of the let or shared roof, the defects we found and what we recommend.

Why get it checked now?
A planned maintenance budget needs real information. Our report separates urgent items from those that can wait, so spending can be spread sensibly. In a place like Broxhill, a barn or garage roof left to fail puts whatever is inside at risk. It’s worth including them in a survey before a winter does the damage.
Prices start from £150, inc. VAT, for a Basic Survey. Standard is from £250 and Premium from £400, both including VAT. We confirm the price for your survey before booking.

Landlord roof surveys around Broxhill
If your home is older, it is worth knowing whether it’s listed or in a conservation area before planning roof work. Changes that affect a listed building’s special interest need listed building consent, and councils can also use Article 4 directions to control changes in conservation areas. A number of Hampshire villages keep thatched roofs on their older buildings. In this part of the South East, older roofs are mostly slate or clay tile and many newer ones concrete tile. Whatever the covering, it’s often the fixings, flashings, valleys and gutters that give out first.
Whatever the street in Broxhill, a roof costs least to look after when faults are caught early. If you live in an older home near Church of St James, the nails, lead and mortar on the roof may be wearing out even where the slates or tiles look fine.

How the survey changes by roof type
Party-wall upstands and parapets
Parapet walls often hide gutters behind them. We inspect them as far as it’s safe to see.
Flat roofs on blocks and rear additions
Felt flat roofs frequently need replacing after around 15–20 years, so knowing roughly how old the roof is helps.
Honest limits
Some things can’t be seen without opening up the roof, and that sets some limits:
- Responsibility under a lease
- The rest of the building, as a RICS Level 2 or 3 survey would
- Areas behind locked flats or blocked hatches

Your questions about landlord roof surveys in Broxhill
How do I find out if my home in Broxhill is listed?
Start with Historic England’s list for listing and your council for conservation areas. Either can affect what roof work is allowed, so it’s worth checking before planning any.
Do you cover smaller places like Broxhill?
Yes. Broxhill is within the area we cover, which takes in towns, villages and rural addresses. Our area covers London and South East England. Let us know about access, parking and anything unusual about getting there when booking.
Is this survey just for landlords?
We work for landlords, letting agents, managing agents and freeholders along with residents’ and RTM management companies. Owners in a shared building book it too.
Does this replace a RICS building survey?
No, it focuses on the roof. It isn’t a RICS Level 2 or 3 building survey and doesn’t replace a structural engineer’s report.
How long does a landlord roof survey take?
Most visits to a house take about 1–2 hours, with blocks and complex roofs taking longer.
Do you survey roofs on blocks of flats?
Yes, once access has been agreed. The roof of a block or converted house is often shared, so the building owner or managing agent needs to agree access. We inspect only the parts we are allowed to reach.
Will you check the loft?
If it is needed and safe to reach, yes. We look for staining, damp, daylight and signs of movement.
Can I check my roof myself?
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.
A DIY look is useful, but it isn’t a survey. From the ground, valleys, flashings and the backs of chimneys are frequently out of sight, and those are details a survey looks at closely.

The survey, step by step
The aim of the visit is simple: to look at the let or shared roof as closely as is safe and record what we find. Notes and photographs go into the written report. The visit normally takes an hour or two for a single let house, with blocks of flats taking longer. Somewhere as small as Broxhill, access is often the only tricky part. Mention any outbuildings, barns or garages you want included, and anything about the roof you already know. Visits can be on weekdays, Saturdays or Sundays.
- You tell us about the building, its roofs and any known leaks.
- We confirm the access we will need.
- The roofs are inspected from the ground, vantage points, the roof space and the roof where safe.
- The report records areas we couldn’t access.
- Findings and recommendations are set out with photos.
Getting ready for the survey
- Let us know about parking before the day
- Point out any leaks or damp patches
- Unlock side gates and any roof access doors
