Landlord roof surveys around Hascombe
Handmade clay tiles and tile-hung walls are typical of Surrey’s older houses. A few of Surrey’s oldest buildings have heavy Horsham stone slab roofs. Whichever you have, the details that tend to fail before the covering itself get the closest look. Loseley Park, about 4.8 miles north, is one of the historic houses in the wider area around Hascombe. 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 the council can say whether a home is in a conservation area.
The streets around a church like Church of St Peter are frequently among the oldest in a place, and if your home is one of the older ones nearby, old fixings, lead flashings and tall chimneys are typical of older roofs. If you own a rental within reach of Milford (Surrey) station, the gap between tenancies is a good time to have the roof looked at.

About our landlord roof survey in Hascombe
Landlords frequently book us when buying a property to rent out, or after a tenant reports a leak. Agents and freeholders often want a survey for a rolling maintenance plan. The report is laid out the same way whatever the reason with photos and recommendations. Surveys are carried out on weekdays and at weekends, which can make access easier to arrange. If you’ve noticed parapets and upstands in poor repair and loose ridge or hip tiles, a survey will tell you what’s going on, on gutters and downpipes, rented houses and shared roofs alike.
Some older homes in villages like Hascombe 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. Knowing the roof’s condition helps you plan ahead with that in mind. Where a building is listed, matching the existing roof materials is frequently expected.
Where we can’t see part of the let or shared roof, the report says so. You’ll know exactly what was inspected and what wasn’t.

What happens on the day
You do not need to do much on the day. Show us any stains, drips or problem areas you know about, and we’ll get on with the inspection. A typical survey takes about 1–2 hours at a typical home, and longer for a large or complex roof. Older rural homes like those around Hascombe can have a main roof, lower lean-to roofs and outbuildings all joined together. We work round each section in turn, from the safest viewpoints.
- We start with what you know about the building and its history.
- We let you know which flats and hatches we need to reach.
- The roofs are inspected from the ground, vantage points, the loft space and the roof where safe.
- We note what couldn’t be seen as well as what could.
- You receive photos and recommendations, prioritised where relevant.
Preparing for the visit
- Tell us about parking before the day
- Find any records of previous roof work
- Make sure we can get to the back of the property

Advice
What we look for on each type of roof
Shared chimney stacks
Chimney stacks are frequently shared between houses or flats. We check pots, flaunching, pointing and flashings as far as can be seen.
Gutters and downpipes
Blocked gutters cause many leaks into top-floor flats. We check gutters, outlets and downpipes as far as can be seen safely.

For a freeholder or residents’ company, a roof report is a sound basis for a maintenance plan, putting the urgent items at the top.
Any of our surveys can be booked by landlords, agents and building managers in Hascombe. For a price for a let property or a block, phone 07833 053749 or use the contact form.
Should I look at the roof myself first?
You can learn a lot from ground level. With binoculars, look for slipped or missing slates and tiles, gaps along the ridge and leaning chimneys. Please don’t climb up for a closer look.
Fresh stains on ceilings or walls after rain are worth noting. Take a photo and write down when you saw it, as it helps a surveyor trace the cause.
Your questions about landlord roof surveys in Hascombe
Does a conservation area affect roof work in Hascombe?
Start with Historic England’s list for listing and your council for conservation areas. It’s worth checking before planning roof work, as both can affect what’s allowed.
Do you survey roofs for landlords with property near Milford (Surrey) station?
Yes, that is a common request. Let us know whether a tenant or an agent will let us in, and we can send the report to you or your agent.
Can you survey a shared roof?
Yes, as long as access is agreed. Roofs over flats are frequently shared, so we need permission from whoever owns or manages the building. We can only inspect what we’re given access to.
Are you insured?
Our surveys are covered by professional indemnity and public liability insurance. Ask if you need details for a managing agent or building owner.
Do you cover Hascombe for landlord roof surveys?
Yes, we do. We carry out landlord roof surveys in Hascombe, and the service is the same as everywhere else we work.
Do you survey roofs shared between flats?
Yes. We inspect the parts we are given access to, as far as they can be seen safely. The report records what couldn’t be seen in the report.
Will you go up on the roof?
Not always. Safety comes first, and fragile or steep roofs cannot always be walked on. Safe viewpoints, the loft and a drone where it applies let us see the rest, and the report records anything we couldn’t see.
What affects the cost of landlord roof surveys
All our prices include VAT. The things that change the price are:
- How big the roof is
- The shape of the roof and its details
- Any need for thermal images or a drone flight
- Height and safe access
What a survey costs comes down to the roof itself: how big it is, how high it is, the number of separate roofs and how safely it can be seen. Our price is from £150, including VAT.
What we need to know
Getting the details right at the start saves time. Please include:
- Your timetable, such as an exchange date
- Your postcode, so we can check access and travel
- What kind of property and roof it is
- What’s prompted the survey
Every survey is priced before it is booked, so you know where you stand. Prices start from £150, including VAT. To book, call 07833 053749 or email us.
