How a landlord roof survey works in Hatch Warren
Access needs arranging before a survey of a let or shared building. We may need to get into the roof space and some or all of the flats and residents will need to be told ahead of time. You or your agent arrange access, and we confirm what we need as you book. Where we can’t get into part of the building, the report says so. We survey rented houses, blocks of flats and flat roofs on blocks, and common reasons people get in touch are gutters overflowing onto walls and ceiling stains reported by tenants.
Houses in smaller places like Hatch Warren can face open ground, where wind and driving rain hit the roof harder. That weather tells first on ridges, verges, chimneys and flashings. A close look shows whether anything has started to loosen. Once one ridge tile or slate moves, wind gets under the next one too.
It isn’t only a list of defects. For each finding, it explains what it is, why it matters and what we’d recommend, so you can decide what to do next.

How it works
Time on site depends on the size and shape of the roof, but as a rough guide the survey takes between one and two hours at a typical home, though large, tall or awkward roofs take more time. If you have questions on the day, just ask. Parking around Hatch Warren is typically easier than in a town centre, but mention lanes, gates or long drives. Low roofs on bungalows can often be seen well from the ground, and the loft shows the rest, while taller roofs may need other vantage points or the drone where it applies.
- We agree the roofs to be surveyed and what you need the report for.
- Access to flats and the loft space is arranged by you or your agent.
- We inspect each roof as far as it can safely be seen.
- We photograph defects and note how urgent they look.
- You get a written report to plan maintenance and budgets.

Landlord roof surveys around Hatch Warren
Listing and conservation areas can both shape what roof work is allowed on an older home. Your council and Historic England’s list will tell you where you stand, ideally before any re-roofing is planned. A number of Hampshire villages keep thatched roofs on their older buildings. Older houses in the South East often have slate or clay tile roofs, while many later estates have concrete tiles. Whatever the covering, it’s frequently the fixings, flashings, valleys and gutters that give out first.
Landlords with a home close to Basingstoke station may find that the gap between tenancies is a good time to have the roof looked at. Anyone responsible for a site like Hatch Warren Infant School will know that long gutter runs and wide roofs on a building that size are worth checking on a regular cycle.

Hatch Warren: your questions answered
How do I find out if my home in Hatch Warren is listed?
You can check whether a building is listed on Historic England’s list, and your council can tell you if it is in a conservation area. Listed building consent is needed for changes that affect a listed building’s special interest, and conservation areas can limit changes of roofing material.
Will you come out to Hatch Warren?
Yes. Hatch Warren is within the area we cover, which takes in towns, villages and rural addresses. We survey roofs across London and the South East. Let us know about access, parking and anything unusual about getting there as you book.
Is the report suitable for a maintenance plan?
Yes. It shows what needs attention now and what can be planned for later, which helps you plan work and budgets. It doesn’t include repair cost estimates, but contractors can price from it.
I live in a flat. Can you survey the roof?
Yes. A shared roof needs access agreed first, with whoever owns or manages the building. Tell us about it when you book and we will explain what’s needed.
Do you carry professional indemnity insurance?
Professional indemnity and public liability insurance cover our surveys. If you need details for a managing agent or a building owner, just ask.
What’s the price of a landlord roof survey?
Our packages start from £150 for Basic, £250 for Standard and £400 for Premium, with VAT included. Blocks are priced on their size and roofs. Just phone 07833 053749 or use the contact form for a price.

What a landlord roof survey does not cover

- A full building survey of every part of the property
- Roof areas we weren’t given access to
- A full structural assessment of the building

Why get it checked now?
Defects caught early can frequently be dealt with as planned work. Waiting for a leak can mean damage to ceilings, decorations and tenants’ belongings, plus urgent call-outs. Tradespeople may need to travel further to a smaller place like Hatch Warren, so it’s useful to plan roof work rather than call someone out in a hurry. A survey gives you that notice.
All our prices include VAT. Prices start from £150, including VAT. You will know the price for your roof before you book.

DIY checks: what’s safe
You can learn a lot from the ground. With binoculars, look for slipped or missing slates and tiles, gaps along the ridge and leaning chimneys. Please do not climb up for a closer look.
Watch the gutters in a downpour, from a window or the ground. Water spilling over the edge can point to a blockage or a sagging run.
What we’re asked to look at in Hatch Warren
Many let properties sit under roofs that have seen decades of weather. Fixings, flashings and underlay can fail before the slates or tiles themselves, and a survey helps show where that is happening.
A survey makes sense if you’ve noticed:
- Parapets and upstands in poor repair
- Ceiling stains reported by tenants
- Ponding or splits on flat roofs
- Gutters overflowing onto walls
Shop and office owners around Festival Place may find that a roof report helps plan work around trading rather than after a leak.
