Coxhill Green Landlord Roof Survey
We carry out landlord roof surveys in Coxhill Green and the rest of Surrey. We survey on any day of the week.
- Cracked or leaning shared chimneys
- Leaks into upper flats
- Leaking joints at party walls
Should I look at the roof myself first?
Fresh stains on ceilings or walls after rain are worth noting. Photograph them and note the date, which helps when we look at the roof.
The one thing to avoid is getting up close. Slates, tiles, flat roofs and rooflights can give way. That part is for a survey.
Landlord roof surveys for homes and businesses in Coxhill Green
We check the same things on a let roof as on any other: slates or tiles, ridges, hips, valleys, flashings, chimneys, gutters and the loft. 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 safely be seen and the loft where access is safe. We survey rented houses, converted houses and blocks of flats, and the problems we’re asked to look at most are chimney stacks in poor repair and choked outlets and gutters.
Some older homes in villages like Coxhill Green are 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. Where a building is listed, matching the existing roof materials is often expected.
We write the report in plain English, so you don’t need to be a roofer to follow it. Photos show what each point refers to, and recommendations are put in order of urgency where relevant.

Landlord roof surveys in Coxhill Green: local notes
Historic houses such as Botleys Mansion, about 3.5 miles north-east, show how far back building in the area around Coxhill Green goes. Older homes in the wider area frequently have features worth a closer look, like lead valleys, tall stacks and roofs that have been patched over the years, and a listed home or one in a conservation area may need consent for changes of material. Many older homes in Surrey have handmade clay tiles and tile-hung upper walls. Horsham stone slab roofs survive on some old buildings in Surrey. On roofs like these, good slates or tiles can outlast the nails, battens, lead and mortar around them.
If yours is one of the older homes in the streets near Church of St Lawrence, old fixings, lead flashings and tall chimneys are typical of older roofs. If you look after a shop, office or commercial unit, for example near The Peacocks, a written record of the roof’s condition helps you plan maintenance rather than react to leaks. If you look after a building such as St Lawrence CofE (Aided) Primary School, large buildings have long gutter runs and big roofs that need checking like any other.

How the survey changes by roof type
Flat roofs on blocks and rear additions
Flat roof outlets frequently clog leaving water standing. We check them as part of the survey.
Gutters and downpipes
Water from failed gutters often shows as damp inside. Any problems are photographed.
Practical tips
Here are a few things we’d tell any owner, before and after a survey:
- Make leak reporting easy for tenants
- Keep the loft hatch clear and reachable
- Arrange flat access beforehand
- Deal with urgent items first
The report comes with photos and written recommendations, prioritised by urgency where relevant. It is emailed to you ready to pass on to whoever needs it.
Deal with the high-priority defects quickly and schedule the others. Left alone, minor faults usually get worse.
When you need someone else
Some things cannot be seen without opening up the roof, and that sets some limits:
- Legal advice on leases or service charges
- Whether materials contain asbestos (a specialist asbestos surveyor’s job)
- Walls, floors and services beyond the roof
If you’re not sure which survey you need, phone 07833 053749 or email us and we will give you a straight answer. What a survey covers and doesn’t.

What we do, step by step
It helps to start with what’s prompted the survey: buying, a leak, storm damage, new work or just wanting to know where things stand. That way we can focus on what matters to you. Most visits take roughly 1–2 hours for a single let house, with blocks of flats taking longer. Older rural homes like those around Coxhill Green can have a main roof, lower lean-to roofs and outbuildings all joined together. We work round each section in turn, from the safest viewpoints.
- First, we confirm the roofs and areas to be surveyed.
- Access to flats and the loft space is arranged with you in advance.
- We inspect each roof from safe vantage points, the loft space and the roof itself where safe.
- Every defect we find is photographed and given a priority where relevant.
- You get a written condition report to help plan maintenance.
Getting ready for the survey
- Leave a clear route to the loft
- Leave side gates unlocked
- Find any records of previous roof work
How to book
If you have photos of the roof, send them over. Take them safely from the ground or a window, and please do not climb up for a closer look. To get started, phone 07833 053749 or drop us an email.
