How a landlord roof survey works in Highstreet Green
Shared roofs on blocks, converted houses and terraces raise their own questions. We look at the roof from each safe vantage point including the loft and flats where access is arranged. Each part of the roof is recorded with photos giving all parties the same information. We can only inspect the parts of a shared roof we’re allowed to reach. If you are worried about ceiling stains reported by tenants and cracked or lifting flashings, we can find out what’s behind it, whatever the roof.
In a small place like Highstreet Green, many roofs stand in the open, which is hard on ridges, chimneys, flashings and gutters. Older walls take a long time to dry once water gets in. A roof report shows what needs attention first. On exposed older roofs, chimneys and lead flashings are often the first to give way.
Every survey ends with a written report, with photos, sent by email. It explains the condition of the let or shared roof, the defects we found and what we recommend.

Why act early in Highstreet Green
A leak in a block rarely stays in one place. Spotting roof defects early helps protect the whole building. Where a roof is exposed, as many are in small places like Highstreet Green, driving rain gets into any weakness, and older walls, once damp, take a long time to dry.
To find out what your survey will cost, call 07833 053749 or email us with the address and some details. We will confirm the figure before booking.

Signs you need a landlord roof survey in Highstreet Green
On a shared roof, it is not always clear who should act. Each party may assume someone else is dealing with it and work gets delayed. An independent report helps everyone see the facts.
A survey can pick up problems such as:
- Damaged party-wall upstands or parapets
- Slipped or missing slates and tiles
- Worn ridges, hips and verges
- Ponding or splits on flat roofs
In and around Highstreet Green, as anywhere, a roof is easiest to deal with when its problems are found early.
Before you book any roof surveyor
- Whether the inside of the roof is included
- What happens after the report arrives
- Whether any drone flown is registered with the CAA
- Which limits apply to the survey
Landlord roof surveys in Highstreet Green: local notes
An older home may be listed, or stand in a conservation area. Historic England’s list shows listed buildings, and the council can say whether a street is in a conservation area. In either case, a change of roofing material may need consent. Many older homes in Surrey have handmade clay tiles and tile-hung upper walls. Horsham stone slab roofs survive on some old buildings in Surrey. Whatever the covering, it is often the fixings, flashings, valleys and gutters that give out first.
For landlords with property near Witley station, a roof report between tenancies helps plan work before a small defect becomes a tenant’s leak.

Common questions in Highstreet Green
Can a landlord with a rental near Witley station book a roof survey?
Yes, rented property is part of what we cover. You can call 07833 053749 or email us with the address and some details, including who will give access on the day.
How do I find out if my home in Highstreet Green is listed?
For listing, use Historic England’s list; for conservation areas, ask the council. It matters most if you’re planning to re-roof in a different material.
How do I arrange a landlord roof survey in Highstreet Green?
To arrange a survey, call 07833 053749 or send us an email with the address, the type of property and what’s prompted the survey. We will confirm the price and agree a day with you.
Does this replace a RICS home survey?
No. This is a survey of the roof only, so it’s not a RICS Level 2 or Level 3 survey. It can sit alongside a RICS survey if you want both.
Does the weather affect the survey?
It depends on the weather and the survey. In high wind or heavy rain, a drone can’t fly and access may not be safe, so we’d move the date with you.
What does a roof survey cost?
Prices start from £150, including VAT. We confirm the price for your survey before booking, based on the roof’s size, access and package. To get a price, ring 07833 053749 or email us.
Will you go up on the roof?
Only if it’s safe. We inspect what can safely be seen: from ground level, from windows, from inside the roof space, from the roof where it is safe and by drone where it applies. Anything we can’t see is noted in the report.
How the survey works
After the inspection, everything we found is written up as a photo-illustrated written report, sent to you by email. As for time on site, most surveys take about one to two hours at a typical home, with bigger or more complicated roofs taking longer. For a village or hamlet like Highstreet Green, the journey is planned beforehand: 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 scope and the purpose of the report.
- You arrange access to the loft and any flats we need.
- We inspect each roof as far as it can be seen safely.
- Every defect is photographed and its urgency noted where relevant.
- You get a written report to plan maintenance and budgets.
Before we arrive
- Note where any stains or damp appear
- Leave a clear route to the loft
- Find any records of previous roof work
