What affects the price in Farleigh Wallop
What a survey costs depends on the time and equipment it needs. That comes down to:
- The height of the building and how the roof can be seen safely
- The size of the roof
- The use of thermal imaging or a drone
- Features like valleys, chimneys, dormers and parapets
One thing that affects the price is the package: from £150 for Basic, £250 for Standard and £400 for Premium, with VAT included. The roof’s size, height and access matter as well.

How a landlord roof survey works in Farleigh Wallop
Shared roofs on blocks, converted houses and terraces raise their own questions. We inspect the roof as far as it can safely be seen including the loft and flats where access is arranged. The report records the condition of each part giving all parties the same information. Where neighbours share the roof, we can only inspect what we’re given access to. If you’ve noticed damaged pots and flaunching and missing or loose roof coverings, we can find out what’s behind it, on converted houses, blocks of flats and shared roofs alike.
Village roofs frequently face open fields and take the full force of wind and rain, which is hard on ridges, chimneys, flashings and gutters. Damp in old walls is slow to dry, so a small leak can do a lot of harm. A roof report shows what needs attention first. Lead flashings and old chimney stacks are often where weather gets in first.
The written findings come by email, ready to forward to whoever needs them. Basic reports come within 48 hours, Standard within 24–48 hours and Premium on the day.

- Responsibility under a lease
- The structure in the way a structural engineer would assess it
- Asbestos testing of roof sheets or soffits

Why act early in Farleigh Wallop
Budgets work best when they’re based on the roof’s actual condition. Our report separates urgent items from those that can wait helping you spread the work. Where a roof is exposed, as many are in small places like Farleigh Wallop, driving rain gets into any weakness, and older walls, once damp, take a long time to dry.
Every price we give includes VAT, and the written report is part of the package. Landlord roof survey starts from £150, including VAT. Where your roof sits in the range depends on its size, height and access.

What a landlord roof survey looks like in Farleigh Wallop
Some Hampshire villages still have thatched roofs. Older houses in the South East frequently have slate or clay tile roofs, while many later estates have concrete tiles. Each of these coverings has its own weak points, from fixings and valleys to flashings, chimneys and gutters. Historic houses such as Hall Place, about 5 miles south-east, show how far back building in the area around Farleigh Wallop goes. Older roofs in the wider area can hide decades of patch repairs, so the detail matters, and the council can say whether a home is in a conservation area.
For landlords with property near Basingstoke station, a roof report between tenancies helps plan work before a small defect becomes a tenant’s leak. The streets around a church such as Church of St. Andrew are frequently among the oldest in a place, and if your house is among the older ones nearby, old fixings, lead flashings and tall chimneys are typical of older roofs. If you look after a building like Brighton Hill Community School, large buildings have long gutter runs and big roofs that need checking like any other.

Tips that help
Getting the most from a landlord roof survey starts before we arrive and carries on afterwards. Tips:
- Tell tenants when we’re coming
- Do not store items over the loft hatch
- Hold on to old reports to compare later
- Ask residents to report damp right away
If you need to share the findings with leaseholders or a board, the photos help. The report is written in plain language.
Keep the roof space accessible so the roof can be checked from inside. Stored items over the hatch make checks harder.
Different roofs, different checks
Party-wall upstands and parapets
Terraced roofs have party-wall upstands between houses. Their flashings and pointing can let water in.
Flat roofs on blocks and rear additions
Felt flat roofs frequently need replacing after around 15–20 years, so knowing roughly how old the roof is helps.

Farleigh Wallop questions
How do I find out if my home in Farleigh Wallop is listed?
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.
Will you come out to Farleigh Wallop?
Yes, Farleigh Wallop is on our map. Villages and rural addresses get the same survey as a town house, with the route planned beforehand.
Is a landlord roof survey the same as a full building survey?
No, it focuses on the roof. It isn’t a RICS Level 2 or 3 building survey, and it’s not a structural engineer’s report.
Can you survey at the weekend?
Surveys can be booked for any day of the week: Monday to Friday, Saturdays and Sundays. Just tell us the days that suit you.
Do you test for asbestos?
No. We do not carry out asbestos surveys or testing. If we see materials that could contain asbestos, such as cement roof sheets or soffits on buildings from before 2000, we flag them.
Does the weather affect the survey?
A survey can usually go ahead in light rain, and it can even help show where water is getting in. High wind or heavy rain can stop drone flights and make roof access unsafe, so we will agree a new date if the weather isn’t suitable.
I live in a flat. Can you survey the roof?
Yes. Shared roofs just need a little more planning, with the freeholder or managing agent. Mention it when you get in touch and we will explain what’s needed.
The survey, step by step
Before we start, tell us why you’ve booked: a purchase, a leak, a storm, new work or simply peace of mind. It helps us focus on what matters most to you. The visit normally takes an hour or two on an ordinary house, with bigger or more complicated roofs taking longer. Older roofs in small places like Farleigh Wallop can have low, tight loft spaces, so let us know about the loft hatch and any ladder. 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 checked from safe vantage points and inside where possible.
- We photograph defects and note how urgent they look.
- A written condition report follows to help you plan.
Before we arrive
- Leave side gates unlocked
- If you are buying, check with the agent that we can get in
- Have any paperwork from past roof work to hand
Book a survey
Buyers should book once an offer has been accepted, so you have the findings in time to act on them before you exchange. Otherwise, simply call 07833 053749 or drop us an email whenever suits you.
