Landlord roof survey in Burwood Park: what you get
Some landlords book a survey when they buy a property to let, or after a tenant reports a leak. Agents and freeholders often want a survey for a rolling maintenance plan. Whatever the reason, the report follows the same clear format with photographs and recommendations. Surveys are carried out seven days a week which can help when arranging access with residents. We survey shared roofs, converted houses and rented houses, and people most often book us about loose ridge or hip tiles and cracked or lifting flashings.
In a village or hamlet like Burwood Park, older cottages and farmhouses often sit alongside barns, outbuildings and a few newer houses. Roofs there can be clay tile, slate, stone or thatch, and chimney stacks are often old. Each needs checking in its own way, and thatch is a specialist material we report on as far as it can be seen. Chimneys and lead flashings on old roofs often need the most attention.
Where we can’t see part of the let or shared roof, the report says so. That way, it’s clear what was covered and what wasn’t, and what we’d suggest next.

Tips that help
Some practical points come up on survey after survey. They’re worth knowing whatever the roof:
- Don’t store items over the loft hatch
- Give tenants a simple way to report leaks
- Keep roof outlets and gutters clear
- Keep roof surveys on a rolling plan
How soon the report arrives depends on the package: within 48 hours for Basic, 24–48 hours for Standard and the same day for Premium. Pick the package that suits the building and your timescale.
Have the roof looked at regularly, not just when it leaks. Many landlords and agents survey their roofs on a rolling basis, alongside yearly gutter clearing.
Burwood Park: your questions answered
I let a flat near Walton-On-Thames station. Can you check the roof?
Yes, that’s a common request. We just need to know who will give access, and we can send the report to you or your agent.
Do you cover smaller places like Burwood Park?
We do. A small place gets exactly the same survey as a big one.
How much does a landlord roof survey cost in Burwood Park?
Prices start from £150, including VAT. The final figure depends on the roof and the package you choose, confirmed before anything is booked.
Will you fly a drone over my roof?
Where it helps and the rules allow, yes. We hold a CAA Flyer ID and Operator ID and fly a drone under 250g, and every flight depends on the airspace and the weather.
Do you carry out surveys on Saturdays and Sundays?
Visits run seven days a week in the daytime. Let us know your preferred days when booking.
Do you survey roofs shared between flats?
Yes. We survey what we can access and see safely. The report records what couldn’t be seen as well as what could.
Are you insured?
Professional indemnity and public liability insurance cover our surveys. If you need details for a managing agent or a building owner, just ask.

Why get it checked now?

Thermal imaging and drone inspection (where applicable) come with the Premium Survey, which starts from £400, with VAT included. We can help you choose the package that fits what you’d like to know.

Landlord roof surveys in Burwood Park: local notes
Historic houses such as The Homewood, about 1.7 miles south-east, show how far back building in the area around Burwood Park goes. If your house is among the older ones, expect a mix of original materials and later repairs on the roof. Handmade clay tiles and tile-hung walls are typical of Surrey’s older houses. A few of Surrey’s oldest buildings have heavy Horsham stone slab roofs. Each of these coverings has its own weak points, from fixings and valleys to flashings, chimneys and gutters.
If you own a rental within reach of Walton-On-Thames station, a roof report between tenancies helps plan work before a small defect becomes a tenant’s leak. Homes near green spaces like West End Common can get more leaves in their gutters in autumn, and an overflowing gutter soon means a wet wall. If you look after a building such as Cleves School, its roofs, gutters and any chimneys need the same checks as a house’s, just on a bigger scale.

How we price landlord roof surveys
Several things affect the price of a survey:
- The use of thermal imaging or a drone
- The package you choose: Basic, Standard or Premium
- Roof area
- Extensions, dormers and garages with roofs of their own
We offer three survey packages: Basic from £150, Standard from £250 and Premium from £400, all including VAT. The price for your roof depends on its size, access and what you need to know.
What we need to know
These details help when you get in touch:
- Pictures of the roof from a safe spot, if you have them
- The kind of building and roof involved
- Your timetable, such as an exchange date
- Where the property is, with the postcode
Once you know what you need, phone 07833 053749 or use the contact form. We will suggest a package, agree the price and find a date.
For landlords and managing agents
Shared roofs need a little more planning: we need access agreed with whoever owns or manages the building. Mention it when you get in touch and we’ll plan the survey around it.
Roof problems in a rented home affect tenants as well as the building. A survey helps you spot issues early and plan the work around your tenants.
What we can’t see
In fairness, a roof survey has limits:
- Structural calculations or an engineer’s report
- Roof areas we weren’t given access to
- Asbestos testing of roof sheets or soffits
If in doubt, call 07833 053749 or email us and we will recommend the right survey before booking. What a survey covers and does not.
What we check
- Blocks of flats
- Converted houses
- Rented houses
- Flat roofs on blocks
- Gutters and downpipes
- Shared roofs
What happens on the day
After the inspection, everything we found is written up as a photo-illustrated written report, sent to you by email. On timing, most surveys take about 1–2 hours at most homes, with bigger or more complicated roofs taking longer. Older roofs in small places like Burwood Park can have low, tight loft spaces, so it is useful to know whether there is a loft hatch and how easy it is to reach. We only go where it is safe.
- You tell us about the building, its roofs and any known leaks.
- We let you know which flats and hatches we need to reach.
- The roofs are inspected from ground level, 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
- For flats, make sure roof access has been agreed
- Buyers: confirm access with the estate agent or seller
- Jot down any questions you want answered
