Landlord roof survey in Froyle
Some landlords book a survey when they buy a property to let, others when a tenant reports a leak or damp. Others want a regular survey for a rolling maintenance plan. Whatever the reason, the report follows the same clear format, with photos and recommendations. We survey on weekdays and at weekends, which can make access easier to arrange. If you’re worried about blocked gutters over flats and ponding or splits on flat roofs, a survey will tell you what’s going on.
Somewhere as small as Froyle, 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 is normally the chimneys and lead flashings that need work first.
The report works through the roof section by section, from the main slopes down to the gutters and outlets, each with a short note and a photo. You’ll see the good as well as the bad.

For landlords and managing agents
If the property is let, the agent or a tenant can let us in. We survey on any day of the week, which can make access easier.
Roof problems in a rented home affect tenants as well as the building. A survey helps you spot issues early and plan the work with less disruption.
Prices for landlord roof surveys in Froyle
When we price a survey, we consider:
- House, block, shop or office
- How many separate roofs there are, such as extensions, dormers and garages
- Which survey package you book
- Height and safe access
One thing that affects the price is the package: from £150 for Basic, £250 for Standard and £400 for Premium, including VAT. Size, height and access can affect the price too.

What helps most when you contact us:

Froyle: your questions answered
Does a conservation area affect roof work in Froyle?
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.
I let a flat near Bentley (Hampshire) station. Can you check the roof?
Yes, landlords and letting agents book with us as well as owners. Just call 07833 053749 or email us and let us know about the building, including who will give access on the day.
How do I arrange a landlord roof survey in Froyle?
It is easiest to call 07833 053749 or use the contact form. Tell us the address and a little about the roof. Surveys run on weekdays, Saturdays and Sundays.
How experienced are you?
We have completed more than 5,000 surveys, over more than 20 years, and 98% of clients are satisfied.
Can you survey in bad weather?
Some surveys depend on the weather more than others. Drones cannot fly safely in strong wind or heavy rain, and thermal imaging works best after a sunny day, with a dry roof and little wind. If the conditions aren’t right, we will talk to you about another date.
Is this an asbestos survey?
No. We do not carry out asbestos surveys or testing. We flag materials that could contain asbestos, like cement sheets or soffits on pre-2000 buildings, and recommend a specialist asbestos surveyor checks them before they’re disturbed.
Is Froyle in your area?
Yes. We carry out landlord roof surveys in Froyle, and the service is the same as everywhere else we work.

What we do, step by step
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. It helps us focus on what matters most to you. Most visits take between one and two hours for most houses, and longer for a large or complex roof. Somewhere as small as Froyle, access is often the only tricky part. Let us know about outbuildings, past repairs and any leaks you’ve noticed. Weekday and weekend visits are available.
- You tell us about the building, its roofs and any known leaks.
- We let you know which flats and hatches we need to reach.
- We check coverings, flashings, gutters and chimneys where they can be seen.
- The report records areas we couldn’t access.
- Findings and recommendations are set out with photographs.
Before the survey
- Show us where any leaks or stains appear
- Move anything stored under the loft hatch
- Let us know where we can park nearby

Roofs, chimneys and gutters in Froyle
Thatch survives on some older buildings in Hampshire’s villages. In this part of the South East, older roofs are mostly slate or clay tile and many newer ones concrete tile. Whichever you have, the details that tend to fail before the covering itself get the closest look. Older buildings may be listed or sit 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.
If you own a rental within reach of Bentley (Hampshire) station, knowing the condition of the roof, chimneys and gutters helps you plan work rather than react to complaints. The streets around a church such as Church of St Mary of the Assumption are often among the oldest in a place, and if you own one of the older houses nearby, old fixings, lead flashings and tall chimneys are typical of older roofs.

DIY checks: what’s safe
After strong wind, take a look from the pavement or garden: broken slates or tiles in the garden, gaps along the ridge or loose lead are signs to note. Don’t go up yourself.
A DIY look is useful, but it is not a survey. From the ground, valleys, flashings and the backs of chimneys are often out of sight.

Pitched roofs on houses and blocks
Slipped slates on older roofs can point to corroded nails. We note what we can see.
Gutters and downpipes
Hidden gutters on larger buildings can send water indoors. We give them close attention.
