Independent landlord roof surveys in Hall's Green

Landlord roof survey in Hall's Green

Managing agents and freeholders use our reports to plan maintenance and budgets. It shows what needs attention now and what can be planned for later based on what can be seen. It does not give repair costs, but it gives contractors a clear brief to price from. Urgent defects are flagged clearly, so you can deal with it first and budget for the rest. We survey blocks of flats, shared roofs and gutters and downpipes, and people most often book us about slipped or missing slates and tiles and splits and blisters in flat roof coverings.

Some older homes in villages like Hall's Green are listed or in a conservation area. If yours is, re-roofing in different materials may need consent, so the council is the place to check. A roof report helps you plan work with that in mind. Where a building is listed, matching the existing roof materials is frequently expected.

Every survey ends with a written report, with photographs, emailed to you. It sets out the condition of the let or shared roof, any defects and our written recommendations.

Signs you need a landlord roof survey in Hall's Green

Roofs on let and shared buildings frequently get less regular attention than owner-occupied homes. Small defects go unnoticed until water comes through a ceiling and by then more has been damaged.

Things that often lead to a survey include:

  • Damp or stains in top-floor flats
  • Standing water on a flat roof
  • Loose ridge or hip tiles
  • Parapets and upstands in poor repair

Homes near green spaces such as Bough Beech Reservoir can get more leaves in their gutters in autumn.

What to check before booking

  • Whether VAT is in the quoted price
  • Do they have a CAA Flyer ID and Operator ID for drone work?
  • Which parts of the roof they’ll actually see
  • Their report turnaround times

What’s in a roof survey

When you need someone else

Our survey is not a RICS Level 2 or Level 3 survey, a structural engineer’s report or an asbestos survey. Other limits to bear in mind:

  • Whether materials contain asbestos (a specialist asbestos surveyor’s job)
  • Structural calculations or an engineer’s report
  • Legal advice on leases or service charges

Not sure which survey suits your roof? You can ring 07833 053749 or drop us an email and we’ll tell you. What our survey covers.

Roof types and parts we check

  • Converted houses
  • Shared roofs
  • Flat roofs on blocks
  • Rented houses
  • Blocks of flats
  • Gutters and downpipes

What happens on the day

There is not much for you to do on the day. Point out anything you’ve noticed, such as stains, drips or loose pieces, and we’ll take it from there. The survey itself takes between one and two hours for a house, and longer for a block or a building with several roofs. Somewhere like Hall's Green needs a little journey planning: let us know about lanes, gates and parking. On the day, we inspect whatever is safely visible, inside and out.

  1. You let us know about the building, its roofs and any known leaks.
  2. We let you know which flats and hatches we need to reach.
  3. We check coverings, flashings, gutters and chimneys where they can be seen.
  4. The report records areas we couldn’t access.
  5. You receive photos and recommendations, prioritised where relevant.

Before the survey

  • If the roof is shared, arrange access with whoever manages the building
  • Make sure the loft hatch can be reached
  • If you’re buying, check with the agent that we can get in

Arrange a survey

Our price is from £150, including VAT. The exact figure depends on the roof and the package, and you can ring 07833 053749 or use the contact form to find out.

Landlords, agents and block managers in Hall's Green

A roof problem in a let property affects your tenants as well as the building. A survey helps you spot issues early and plan the work.

What a survey costs

  • How big the roof is
  • The use of thermal imaging or a drone
  • The package you choose: Basic, Standard or Premium
  • Building height and the viewpoints available

Your questions about landlord roof surveys in Hall's Green

Do you cover smaller places like Hall's Green?

Yes, Hall's Green is covered. We survey roofs across London and South East England, and smaller places are part of that. The journey is planned ahead, so it helps to know about access.

Is my home in Hall's Green listed or in a conservation area?

Start with Historic England’s list for listing and your council for conservation areas. Either can affect what roof work is allowed, so it’s worth checking before planning any.

Is this survey just for landlords?

It suits anyone responsible for a let or shared roof: landlords, agents, freeholders and residents’ management companies.

How do I arrange a landlord roof survey in Hall's Green?

To arrange a survey, ring 07833 053749 or use the contact form with the address, the type of property and what’s prompted the survey. We will confirm the price and find a day that suits.

Do you need to get into the loft?

If there’s a loft and safe access to it, yes. From inside, the underside of the roof frequently shows damp, staining or daylight that cannot be seen from outside.

Can you survey a shared roof on a terrace or converted house?

Yes. We inspect the parts we’re given access to, as far as they can be seen safely. The report records what couldn’t be seen in the report.

Which days do you carry out surveys?

We carry out surveys on weekdays and at weekends. To find a day that suits you, call 07833 053749 or email us.

Roofs, chimneys and gutters in Hall's Green

Handmade clay tiles, including Kent peg tiles hung on pegs through two holes, are typical of older Kent buildings. Oast houses and timber-framed Wealden hall houses are part of the county’s older buildings too. On roofs like these, good slates or tiles can outlast the nails, battens, lead and mortar around them. The wider area around Hall's Green has a long history of building, with Knole House about 3.1 miles north. Older homes in the wider area frequently have features worth a closer look, such as lead valleys, tall stacks and roofs that have been patched over the years, and any change of roofing material on a listed home needs checking with the council first.

If you look after a building such as Weald Community Primary School, a written record of a large roof helps plan work for the holidays rather than in term time. For landlords with property near Penshurst station, a dated record of the roof is useful when planning maintenance across a let.
