Landlord roof survey in Froxfield Green, Hampshire
Roof condition reports for landlords, agents and blocks of flats in Froxfield Green, carried out by an experienced roof surveyor. Every survey comes with a written report and photographs.
- Ponding or splits on flat roofs
- Gaps where tiles or slates have slipped
- Ceiling stains reported by tenants
Rented homes, blocks and businesses
An agent can book and manage the survey for a landlord, and the report can go to both. Access is agreed with the tenant ahead of time.
Businesses and commercial landlords can book us too, including offices, shops and units. Larger roofs take longer.
How a landlord roof survey works in Froxfield Green
With a shared roof, it’s not always clear what’s wrong or where. We check the roof from every safe viewpoint including the loft and flats where access is arranged. The report records the condition of each part, so everyone works from the same facts. We can only inspect the parts of a shared roof we’re allowed to reach. If you’re worried about ceiling stains reported by tenants and failed flashings at walls and chimneys, we can find out what’s behind it, on flat roofs on blocks, blocks of flats and shared roofs alike.
Somewhere as small as Froxfield Green, homes are often older cottages and farmhouses, with outbuildings and some newer houses. Roofs there can be clay tile, slate, stone or thatch, and chimney stacks are frequently old. We report on what can safely be seen, and thatch is a specialist material. On older roofs, it is usually the chimneys and lead flashings that need work first.
The Standard Survey adds moisture detection, a structural check and a follow-up consultation. The Premium Survey goes further, with thermal imaging, drone inspection where applicable, structural analysis and an in-person consultation.

What a landlord roof survey looks like in Froxfield Green
An older home may be listed, or stand in a conservation area. To find out, check Historic England’s list and ask the council about conservation areas. In either case, a change of roofing material may need consent. A number of Hampshire villages keep thatched roofs on their older buildings. Across the South East, older homes tend to have slate or clay tiles, and many later ones concrete tiles. On roofs like these, good slates or tiles can outlast the nails, battens, lead and mortar around them.
Take an older house close to Church of St Peter on the Green: its roof may have old fixings, lead flashings and chimneys that need a closer look. For site and facilities teams at buildings such as Froxfield Church of England Primary School, its roofs, gutters and any chimneys need the same checks as a house’s, just on a bigger scale.

What happens on the day
We will ask a few questions first, about the roof’s history, any leaks and past repairs. The inspection then takes about one to two hours for most houses, or half a day or so for a commercial building. Somewhere like Froxfield Green needs a little journey planning: let us know about lanes, gates and parking. On the day, we inspect everything that’s safely in view, inside and out.
- First, we confirm the roofs and areas to be surveyed.
- 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’s safe.
- Every defect we find is photographed and given a priority where relevant.
- We send a written report you can use to plan maintenance and budgets.
Preparing for the visit
- Jot down any questions you want answered
- Move anything stored under the loft hatch
- Point out any leaks or damp patches
Arrange a survey
Booking is simple: just phone 07833 053749 or drop us an email and give us a few details about the property and we’ll point you to the right survey. We confirm the price before anything is booked.

Why get it checked now?
Quotes from contractors set out the work they want to carry out. A survey gives you an independent view of the roof before you commission work so you know what you’re asking contractors to price. Older and listed buildings around Froxfield Green may need consent and matching materials for repairs, so a defect found early gives time to plan the work properly.
Prices quoted always include VAT, and the report is not charged as an extra. Our price is from £150, including VAT. Size, height and access decide where your roof falls.

Common roof problems in Froxfield Green
Many let properties sit under roofs that have seen decades of weather. Nails, battens, flashings and underlay frequently fail before good slates or tiles so it pays to check how the roof is holding up.
We are often asked to look at:
- Damp or stains in top-floor flats
- Chimney stacks in poor repair
- Loose ridge or hip tiles
- Gutters overflowing onto walls
Landlords with a home close to Petersfield station may find that knowing the condition of the roof, chimneys and gutters helps you plan work rather than react to complaints.
Before you book anyone
- Do they have a CAA Flyer ID and Operator ID for drone work?
- Which parts of the roof they’ll actually see
- Whether the loft is part of the inspection
- How long they’ve been surveying roofs
DIY checks: what’s safe
The one thing to avoid is getting up close. Slates, tiles, flat roofs and rooflights can give way, and falls from height are serious. That is where a survey comes in, using safe viewpoints and a drone where applicable.
Keep a simple record: dates of leaks, photos from ground level and any work done on the roof. Share it with us as you book.
Froxfield Green questions
Is Froxfield Green within the area you cover?
Yes, smaller places are covered as well as towns. Our area covers London and South East England. Just mention lanes, gates or anything else about the route when you book.
Can a landlord with a rental near Petersfield station book a roof survey?
Of course. Let us know whether a tenant or an agent will let us in, and we can send the report to you or your agent.
What insurance do you have?
Professional indemnity and public liability insurance cover our surveys. If you need details for a managing agent or a building owner, just ask.
Do I have to be there for the survey?
If the survey includes the loft or the inside of the building, someone needs to let us in. Access is agreed with you as you book.
How many surveys have you done?
Over 5,000 surveys so far, across 20+ years of surveying roofs, with 98% customer satisfaction.
Do you use drones?
Yes, where applicable and safe. We fly a sub-250g drone and we’re a CAA-registered drone operator (Flyer ID and Operator ID). It’s included in the Drone Roof Survey and, where it applies, the Premium Survey.
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’ll explain what’s needed.
Honest limits
Without opening up the roof, some things stay hidden, and that sets some limits:
- Walls, floors and services beyond the roof
- Whether materials contain asbestos (a specialist asbestos surveyor’s job)
- Responsibility under a lease
