About our landlord roof survey in Culverstone Green
Roofs on let houses and blocks of flats are easy to forget until something leaks. A condition survey lets you find problems before they become leaks so work can be planned, not rushed. You get a photo-illustrated written report that you can keep with the building’s records. Many landlords and agents repeat it every few years to keep maintenance plans current. We survey rented houses, flat roofs on blocks and gutters and downpipes, and common reasons people get in touch are damp or stains in top-floor flats and choked outlets and gutters.
Some older homes in villages like Culverstone Green are listed or in a conservation area. That can affect what materials can be used when work is done, so check with the council before planning anything. 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.
The report doesn’t just list problems. For each finding, it explains what it is, why it matters and what we’d recommend, so you can plan your next steps.

Leave it or get it looked at?
Water that gets into one flat can affect others below. Spotting roof defects early helps protect the whole building. For an older or listed building in a place like Culverstone Green, repairs may need matching materials and consent, so a defect found early gives time to plan the work properly.

Read what a roof survey costs and two real surveys.
How the survey works
The visit normally starts outside and finishes in the loft: first the slopes, edges and gutters from every safe viewpoint, then the loft space where it can be reached. All told, expect about 1–2 hours on an ordinary house, and more on a big or complicated roof. Older roofs in small places like Culverstone Green can have low, tight loft spaces, so it’s useful to know whether there’s a loft hatch and how easy it is to reach. Only areas that can be reached safely are inspected.
- First, we confirm the scope and the purpose of the report.
- You arrange access to the loft and any flats we need.
- Each roof is looked at from safe vantage points and inside where possible.
- Every defect is photographed and its urgency noted where relevant.
- A written condition report follows to help you plan.
Getting ready for the survey
- Tell us where we can park nearby
- Have keys ready for side gates, garages or roof access doors
- If the roof is shared, arrange access with whoever manages the building

FAQs for Culverstone Green
Is my home in Culverstone Green listed or in a conservation area?
Your council is the best source, with Historic England’s list for listed buildings. A change of roofing material may need consent in either case, and councils can also use Article 4 directions.
Do you survey roofs for landlords with property near Sole Street station?
Yes, rented property is part of what we cover. Just call 07833 053749 or use the contact form and tell us about the building.
Does this replace a RICS home survey?
No. Our survey is a roof survey, not a RICS Level 2 or Level 3 survey of the whole building. It focuses on the roof and can sit alongside a RICS survey.
Do you need to get into the loft?
Yes, where the survey calls for it and there’s safe access. Inside, we look for damp, staining, gaps and sagging, as far as the space allows.
How do I book a survey in Culverstone Green?
Simply call 07833 053749 or send us an email with the address. After a few questions, we confirm the price and fix a day, weekday or weekend.
Can you survey at the weekend?
We survey on any day from Monday to Sunday, during the day. Just say which days work for you.

Over 5,000 surveys so far, across 20+ years of surveying roofs, with 98% customer satisfaction.
Roofs, chimneys and gutters in Culverstone Green
Handmade clay tiles, including Kent peg tiles hung on pegs through two holes, are typical of older Kent buildings. The county’s older buildings also include oast houses and timber-framed Wealden hall houses. On roofs like these, good slates or tiles can outlast the nails, battens, lead and mortar around them. About 4 miles north-east lies Cobham College, a reminder of how long the area around Culverstone Green has been built on. If your home is one of the older ones, expect a mix of original materials and later repairs on the roof, and the council can say whether a home is in a conservation area.
Trees in and around Trosley Country Park shed leaves that can end up in nearby gutters, and blocked gutters overflow and soak walls. If you let a flat or house near Sole Street station, knowing the condition of the roof, chimneys and gutters helps you plan work rather than react to complaints. Anyone responsible for a site like Culverstone Green Primary School will know that its roofs, gutters and any chimneys need the same checks as a house’s, just on a bigger scale.

What this survey cannot tell you

- The structure in the way a structural engineer would assess it
- Walls, floors and services beyond the roof
- Responsibility under a lease

How the survey changes by roof type
Shared chimney stacks
Many terraces and conversions have shared stacks. We check pots, flaunching, pointing and flashings as far as can be seen.
Pitched roofs on houses and blocks
Ridges, hips and verges take a lot of weather, so we look at them closely.
DIY checks: what’s safe
What you cannot do safely is get up close. Slates, tiles, flat roofs and rooflights can give way, and a fall can be serious. That part is for a survey.
After strong wind, take a look from the pavement or garden: broken slates or tiles in the garden, gaps along the ridge or loose lead are signs to note. Do not go up yourself.
