Landlord roof surveys for homes and businesses in Hurstbourne Tarrant
Who pays for roof work on a block depends on the lease. We cannot advise on what your lease says but we can give you an independent record of the roof’s condition. It helps owners and managers discuss the next steps from the same facts. You get photos and written recommendations, prioritised by urgency where relevant. Typical surveys look at slipped or missing slates and tiles and ponding or splits on flat roofs, on flat roofs on blocks, shared roofs and rented houses.
Somewhere as small as Hurstbourne Tarrant, homes are frequently 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 typically the chimneys and lead flashings that need work first.
It is not only a list of defects. For each finding, it explains what it is, why it matters and what we’d recommend, so you can plan your next steps.

Useful tips for Hurstbourne Tarrant property owners
A few practical points come up again and again on our surveys. They’re worth knowing whatever the roof:
- Hold on to old reports to compare later
- Deal with urgent items first
- Check your lease or ask a solicitor about who pays
- Arrange flat access ahead of time
If you need to share the findings with leaseholders or a board, the photographs help. The report is written in plain language.
Deal with the high-priority defects quickly and schedule the others. Small roof defects tend to grow.
Local roofs in Hurstbourne Tarrant
Older buildings may be listed or sit 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. A number of Hampshire villages keep thatched roofs on their older buildings. Across the South East, older homes tend to have slate or clay tiles, and many later ones concrete tiles. Each of these coverings has its own weak points, from fixings and valleys to flashings, chimneys and gutters.
For landlords with property near Andover station, a roof report helps you deal with small faults before they turn into a call from a tenant. For site and facilities teams at buildings like Hurstbourne Tarrant Church of England Primary School, a written record of a large roof helps plan work for the holidays rather than in term time. Take an older house close to Church of St Peter: its roof may have old fixings, lead flashings and chimneys that need a closer look.

Your questions about landlord roof surveys in Hurstbourne Tarrant
Do you cover smaller places like Hurstbourne Tarrant?
Yes, we do. We cover the whole of London and South East England, from towns to the smallest villages. Longer journeys are simply planned in advance.
Can a landlord with a rental near Andover station book a roof survey?
Yes, rented property is part of what we cover. You can ring 07833 053749 or send us an email with the address and a few details.
Is it the same as a RICS Level 2 or Level 3 survey?
No. Our survey is a roof survey, not a RICS Level 2 or Level 3 survey of the whole building. It focuses on the roof, so it sits alongside a building survey rather than replacing it.
Do you use drones?
Yes, where applicable and safe. We are a CAA-registered drone operator (Flyer ID and Operator ID), flying a sub-250g drone. It’s included in the Drone Roof Survey and, where it applies, the Premium Survey.
How do I book a survey in Hurstbourne Tarrant?
The quickest way is to call 07833 053749 or email us. Let us know the address and a little about the roof, and we’ll suggest the right survey. We survey on any day of the week.
Will you inspect a roof that several owners share?
Yes, shared roofs are a common request. Where a neighbouring roof isn’t part of the access, we can only see it from vantage points, and the report says so.
How long does the survey take?
It normally takes about one to two hours for a house, and longer for a block or a building with several roofs. You will then get the report by email.
What we cannot see
This is not a RICS building survey, a structural engineer’s report or an asbestos survey. It also has these limits:
- Structural calculations or an engineer’s report
- Roof areas we weren’t given access to
- The rest of the building, as a RICS Level 2 or 3 survey would
If you’re not sure which survey you need, call 07833 053749 or send us an email and we will give you a straight answer before you book. What a survey covers and does not.

Landlords, agents and block managers in Hurstbourne Tarrant
If the property is let, the agent or a tenant can let us in, at a time agreed ahead of time. Surveys run on weekdays and at weekends, which helps when tenants work during the week.
Letting agents often book on a landlord’s behalf, and the report can go to both. Access is agreed with the tenant beforehand.
How the survey changes by roof type
Party-wall upstands and parapets
On terraces, walls rise between neighbouring roofs. Their flashings and pointing can let water in.
Roof spaces and lofts
On blocks, the loft space may be reached through a flat or a communal hatch, so it needs arranging.
What we do, step by step
We do not take risks to get a closer look. We inspect whatever is safely visible, and if part of the roof cannot be seen, the report says so. The survey typically takes about 1–2 hours at most homes, and about three to four hours for a commercial roof. In a hamlet or village like Hurstbourne Tarrant, a postcode does not always lead to the right gate, so a few directions, or a note of a nearby landmark, help us arrive on time. The visit itself is the same as anywhere else.
- We agree the roofs to be surveyed and what you need the report for.
- You arrange access to the loft and any flats we need.
- Each roof is checked from safe vantage points and inside where possible.
- Every defect is photographed and its urgency noted where relevant.
- A written condition report follows to help you plan.
Preparing for the visit
- Leave a clear route to the loft
- Buyers: confirm access with the estate agent or seller
- For a flat or shared roof, check access with whoever owns or manages the building
