Landlord roof surveys for homes and businesses in Filmore Hill
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 shared roofs, flat roofs on blocks and blocks of flats, and people most frequently book us about mortar falling from ridges and verges and damp or stains in top-floor flats.
Somewhere as small as Filmore Hill, homes are often older cottages and farmhouses, with outbuildings and some newer houses. Older roofs may be clay tile, slate, stone or thatch, often with chimneys that have stood a long time. We report on everything that’s safely in view, and thatch is a specialist material. On older roofs, it’s typically the chimneys and lead flashings that need work first.
The report works through the roof section by section, from the coverings down to the gutters, each with a short note and a photograph. It records what’s sound as well as what isn’t.

Can I check my roof myself?
During heavy rain, look at the gutters from ground level or a window. Water spilling over the edge can be a sign of a blockage or a gutter that has dropped.
Inside, the loft is a good place to look, with care. Take a torch and only step on boards or joists, and look for staining, damp timber or daylight coming through.
Landlord and commercial surveys in Filmore Hill
Businesses and commercial landlords can book us too, from shops and offices to industrial units. Bigger roofs take more time, so they’re priced to suit.
Buyers’ agents can book surveys on behalf of their clients. The report is emailed, so it can go straight to your client.
Honest limits
No survey can tell you everything, and it’s better to know them up front. Bear these in mind:
- Parts of the roof we cannot safely see or access
- A full structural assessment of the building
- Asbestos testing of roof sheets or soffits

Common questions in Filmore Hill
Is Filmore Hill within the area you cover?
Yes, Filmore Hill is covered. Our area covers London and South East England, and smaller places are part of that. The journey is planned ahead, so it helps to know about access.
Does a conservation area affect roof work in Filmore Hill?
Historic England’s list shows listed buildings, and the local council can tell you about conservation areas. If a home is listed, changes that affect its special interest need listed building consent, and in a conservation area re-roofing in different materials may need permission.
How much is a landlord roof survey?
Prices start from £150, including VAT. The building’s size, roofs and access all affect the price. For a price, phone 07833 053749 or email us.
Can you survey a shared roof?
Yes, once access has been agreed. Roofs over flats are frequently shared, so we need permission from the building owner or managing agent. We can only inspect what we are given access to.
Do you carry out surveys on Saturdays and Sundays?
We carry out surveys on any day of the week. To arrange a date, ring 07833 053749 or drop us an email.
How experienced are you?
Over 5,000 surveys so far, across 20+ years of surveying roofs, with 98% customer satisfaction.
How long does a landlord roof survey take?
Most visits to a house take about 1–2 hours, with blocks and complex roofs taking longer.
Filmore Hill homes and their roofs
A number of Hampshire villages keep thatched roofs on their older buildings. Slate and clay tile are the usual coverings on older South East houses, with concrete tiles on many later estates. Whichever you have, the details that tend to fail before the covering itself get the closest look. With Hinton Ampner House about 4.2 miles west, Filmore Hill sits in an area with a long building history. On older houses around here, roofs often carry the marks of earlier repairs, from replaced slates to new lead, and a listed home or one in a conservation area may need consent for changes of material.
The streets around a church such as Holy Trinity Church are often among the oldest in a place, and if your house is among the older ones nearby, the nails, lead and mortar on the roof may be wearing out even where the slates or tiles look fine.

Why it’s worth a survey now in Filmore Hill
Water that gets into one flat can affect others below. Spotting roof defects early helps protect the whole building. In a place like Filmore Hill, a barn or garage roof left to fail puts whatever is inside at risk. It is worth including them in a survey before a winter does the damage.
Prices start from £150, including VAT. What you pay depends on how big and how high the roof is, access and which survey you book.

Take a look at how roof surveys are priced and what we found on two real jobs.
Roof by roof
Shared chimney stacks
Shared stacks need everyone involved to agree work, so a clear record helps.
Roof spaces and lofts
On blocks, the roof space may be reached through a flat or a communal hatch and you’ll need to arrange it.
How it works
It’s useful 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. The visit usually takes between one and two hours at most homes, and longer for a large or complex roof. Cottages and farmhouses around Filmore Hill frequently have roofs at several levels, with lean-tos and outbuildings attached. Each part is looked at from wherever it can be seen safely.
- We agree the roofs to be surveyed and what you need the report for.
- Access to flats and the roof space is arranged by you or your agent.
- We inspect each roof as far as it can be seen safely.
- We photograph defects and note how urgent they look.
- A written condition report follows to help you plan.
Getting ready for the survey
- Keep pets out of the way during the survey
- Show us where any leaks or stains appear
- Have any paperwork from past roof work to hand
Getting a price
Most bookings start with a short call: phone 07833 053749 or drop us an email and we will ask a few questions about the roof. The price is agreed before a date is set.
