Landlord roof survey in Easton
Managing agents and freeholders use our reports to plan maintenance and budgets. You can see what’s urgent and what can wait based on what can be seen. It doesn’t give repair costs, but it gives contractors a clear brief to price from. Anything urgent is made clear, so you can act on them first and plan the rest over the coming years. We survey flat roofs on blocks, shared roofs and rented houses, and the problems we’re asked to look at most are standing water on a flat roof and choked outlets and gutters.
Village roofs often face open fields and take the full force of wind and rain, so ridges, chimney stacks, flashings and gutters work hard. Damp in old walls is slow to dry, so a small leak can do a lot of harm. A written report sets out what to deal with and in what order. Lead flashings and old chimney stacks are frequently where weather gets in first.
After the visit, you get a written report with photos, sent by email. It sets out the condition of the let or shared roof, any defects and our written recommendations.

What a survey costs
Every roof is different, so prices are confirmed before you book. This is what makes a difference:
- The shape of the roof and its details
- Whether it’s a home or a commercial building
- Extra roofs, like extensions, dormers or garages
- Roof area
To find out what your survey will cost, call 07833 053749 or email us and tell us about the roof. We will confirm the figure before booking.
Getting in touch
Some details help us point you to the right survey and price. When you contact us, it is useful to mention:
- Any stains, drips or damp patches you’ve seen indoors
- How the loft is reached, if there is one
- Where the property is, with the postcode
- Pictures from the garden or a window, if you have them
Every survey is priced before it is booked, so you know where you stand. Our price is from £150, including VAT. For a price for your roof, ring 07833 053749 or drop us an email.
How the survey works
Safety comes first on every visit. Everything that can safely be seen is inspected, and if part of the roof can’t be seen, the report says so. Most visits take about 1–2 hours for a house, and longer for a block or a building with several roofs. For a village or hamlet like Easton, the journey is planned ahead of time: tell us about narrow lanes, gates, long drives and where we can park. The roof is looked at from the ground, from windows, from the loft where there’s safe access and from the roof where it is safe.
- We start by agreeing the scope, roof by roof.
- We confirm which flats and loft spaces we need to get into, and you arrange access.
- The roofs are inspected from ground level, vantage points, the roof space and the roof where it is safe.
- We photograph each defect and note how urgent it looks.
- We send a written report you can use to plan maintenance and budgets.
How to prepare
- Let us know about parking before the day
- For a flat or shared roof, check access with whoever owns or manages the building
- Check pets are kept safely away
How to book
Getting a price is simple: just ring 07833 053749 or drop us an email, let us know about the property and we will point you to the right survey. The price is agreed up front.

Tips that help
Here are a few things we’d tell any owner:
- Get legal advice on lease responsibilities
- Keep roof surveys on a rolling plan
- Ask residents to report damp straight away
- Book gutter clearing at least once a year
Questions about who pays under the lease are for your managing agent or a solicitor. What we provide is an independent record of condition to help those discussions.
Keep gutters and outlets clear and include any valley or parapet gutters. Many leaks into top flats start with a blocked gutter.
Easton homes and their roofs
Listing and conservation areas can both shape what roof work is allowed on an older home. Your council and Historic England’s list will tell you where you stand, before anyone quotes for re-roofing. Some Hampshire villages still have thatched roofs. Slate and clay tile are the usual coverings on older South East houses, with concrete tiles on many later estates. On roofs like these, good slates or tiles can outlast the nails, battens, lead and mortar around them.
Anyone responsible for a site like Peter Symonds College will know that its roofs, gutters and any chimneys need the same checks as a house’s, just on a bigger scale. Landlords with a home close to Winchester station may find that a roof report helps you deal with small faults before they turn into a call from a tenant.

What else we do in Easton
Easton: your questions answered
How do I find out if my home in Easton is listed?
The council and Historic England’s list are the places to check. It is worth checking before planning roof work, as both can affect what’s allowed.
Will you come out to Easton?
Yes, smaller places are covered as well as towns. We survey roofs across London and South East England. Let us know about access, parking and anything unusual about getting there as you book.
Is this an asbestos survey?
No. Our report may flag materials that could contain asbestos, but only a specialist asbestos surveyor can confirm it. It may be present in buildings built or refurbished before 2000.
Do you need access to all the flats?
It depends on the building. We may need the roof space and some or all of the top-floor flats and access is arranged by you or your agent. We tell you what’s needed when you book.
Does the weather affect the survey?
A survey can normally go ahead in light rain. Strong wind or a downpour can stop drone flights and make roof access unsafe, so if conditions aren’t right we’ll arrange another day with you.
How much time does the visit need?
A visit typically takes roughly 1–2 hours for a single let house, with blocks of flats taking longer. You’ll know roughly how long when we arrange it.
What’s the best way to book?
It’s easiest to call 07833 053749 or drop us an email. Give us the address and some details about the roof, and we’ll take it from there. Surveys run on any day of the week.
Signs you need a landlord roof survey in Easton
Shared roofs can fall between owners. Each party may assume someone else is dealing with it and work gets delayed. An independent report helps everyone see the facts.
We’re frequently asked to look at:
- Leaking joints at party walls
- Cracked or leaning shared chimneys
- Loose ridge or hip tiles
- Ponding or splits on flat roofs
Take an older house close to Church of St Mary: its chimney, valleys and lead work are likely to be the parts that need attention first.
Before you book any roof surveyor
- Their drone registration, if they fly one
- Whether you can ask questions once you have the report
- How much experience they have with roofs like yours
- Is VAT included in the price?
