How a landlord roof survey works in Englefield 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. The findings come in a written report with photos that you can keep with the building’s records. Many landlords and agents repeat it every few years to see how the roof is changing. If you’ve noticed flashings that have come away and splits and blisters in flat roof coverings, we can find out what’s behind it, on converted houses, blocks of flats and rented houses alike.
Trees around homes in smaller places like Englefield Green drop leaves, twigs and moss onto roofs and into gutters. Once gutters and outlets block, water spills over and soaks the walls. It is the kind of slow problem a roof report picks up early. Moss on the roof and weeds in the gutter are both easy to spot from the ground.
It isn’t only a list of defects. It explains what we found, why it matters and what we recommend.

Common questions in Englefield Green
Do you survey roofs for landlords with property near Egham station?
Yes, letting agents and landlords book with us as well as owners. Just call 07833 053749 or email us and tell us about the building.
Does a conservation area affect roof work in Englefield Green?
Historic England’s list shows listed buildings, and the local council can tell you about conservation areas. Listed building consent is needed for changes that affect a listed building’s special interest, and conservation areas can limit changes of roofing material.
How long will you be at the property?
It usually takes roughly 1–2 hours for a single let house, with blocks of flats taking longer. You will then get the report by email, on the timescale of your package.
Does the weather affect the survey?
Light rain is normally fine; heavy rain and wind are different. In high wind or heavy rain, a drone cannot fly and access may not be safe, so we’d move the date with you.
How much does a landlord roof survey cost in Englefield Green?
Prices start from £150, including VAT. Our three packages are Basic from £150, Standard from £250 and Premium from £400, inc. VAT.
What’s the best way to book?
To book, phone 07833 053749 or drop us an email and let us know the address and what you need to know. We will confirm the price and agree a day with you.
Do you survey on Saturdays and Sundays?
Surveys can be booked for any day of the week: Monday to Friday, Saturdays and Sundays. Just tell us the days that suit you.
How the survey changes by roof type
Roof spaces and lofts
The roof space shows a lot about a roof’s condition. We check it where there is safe access looking for water marks and gaps.
Pitched roofs on houses and blocks
Most let houses and many blocks have pitched roofs of slate or tiles. We check coverings, ridges, hips, valleys and flashings as far as can be seen safely.

Tips that help
Getting the most from a landlord roof survey starts before we arrive and carries on afterwards. Tips:
- Make sure the loft space can be accessed
- Give tenants a simple way to report leaks
- Keep past survey reports with the building’s records
- Survey the roof on a regular cycle
Questions about who pays under the lease are for your managing agent or a solicitor. Our report sets out the roof’s condition to help those discussions.
Have the roof looked at regularly, not just when it leaks. Many landlords and agents survey their roofs on a rolling basis with gutters cleared every year.
How it works
On the day, we start by asking what you’ve noticed and what you’d like to know. After that, we look at everything we can see safely, from ground level, from windows, in the roof space and by drone where applicable. The survey usually takes roughly 1–2 hours for a single let house, with blocks of flats taking longer. A visit to a smaller place like Englefield Green is no different on the day: outside, inside and from any safe vantage point, in that order. Point out any stains, cracks or loose pieces you’ve spotted.
- You tell us about the building, its roofs and any known leaks.
- We confirm the access we’ll need.
- The roofs are inspected from the ground, vantage points, the loft space and the roof where safe.
- We note what couldn’t be seen as well as what could.
- You receive photos and recommendations, prioritised where relevant.
Preparing for the visit
- Note where any stains or damp appear
- Unlock side gates and any roof access doors
- Find any records of previous roof work

Roofs, chimneys and gutters in Englefield Green
About 3.2 miles north lies Frogmore House, a reminder of how long the area around Englefield Green has been built on. Older roofs in the wider area can hide decades of patch repairs, so the detail matters. In Surrey, older roofs are often handmade clay tile, with tile-hanging on many upper walls. Horsham stone slab roofs survive on some old buildings in Surrey. Knowing the covering helps explain which parts of a roof are likely to need work first.
The streets around a church such as Church of Our Lady of the Assumption are frequently among the oldest in a place, and if your home is one of the older ones nearby, corroded nails, tired lead and weathered chimney pointing are the things to watch on older roofs. For site and facilities teams at buildings such as Englefield Green Infant School and Nurseries, long gutter runs and wide roofs on a building that size are worth checking on a regular cycle.
Englefield Green is about 1 mile west of Egham, in Surrey. Roofs in Englefield Green get the same thorough look as anywhere else in Surrey. We cover towns and villages across Surrey, from the larger towns to small villages. You can also see our page for Guildford.

Landlords, agents and block managers in Englefield Green
Shared roofs need a little more planning: access has to be agreed with whoever owns or manages the building. Mention it when you contact us and we will plan the visit with that in mind.
A roof problem in a let property affects your tenants as well as the building. A survey shows what needs attention, so you can plan the work around your tenants.
What happens if roof problems are left?
A dated condition report is useful for the building’s records. Surveying again later shows what has changed, which suits a rolling maintenance plan. Around Englefield Green, a leak in an older house can soak into timbers and plaster, which is far harder to put right than the roof fault itself.
Prices start from £150, inc. VAT, for a Basic Survey. The Standard Survey starts from £250 and the Premium Survey from £400. We confirm the price for your survey before you book.

What we are asked to look at in Englefield Green
Roofs on let and shared buildings often get less regular attention than owner-occupied homes. Minor faults can go unseen until a tenant reports a leak and by then more has been damaged.
Most people get in touch when they’ve noticed something like this:
- Gaps where tiles or slates have slipped
- Standing water on a flat roof
- Damp or stains in top-floor flats
- Gutters overflowing onto walls
If you let a flat or house near Egham station, a dated record of the roof is useful when planning maintenance across a let.
