Landlord roof survey in Longmoor

Our landlord and block roof surveys cover Longmoor and the rest of London and the South East. A visit typically takes between one and two hours for a house, and longer for a block or a building with several roofs. We inspect from the ground, vantage points, the loft space and the roof where it’s safe including by drone where it applies. You then get a written report with photos. We survey blocks of flats, shared roofs and converted houses, and common reasons people get in touch are leaking joints at party walls and failed flashings at walls and chimneys.

Village roofs often face open fields and take the full force of wind and rain, so ridges, chimney stacks, flashings and gutters work hard. Damp in old walls is slow to dry, so a small leak can do a lot of harm. 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 photographs, emailed to you. It sets out the condition of the let or shared roof, any defects and our written recommendations.

Longmoor questions

Is Longmoor within the area you cover?

Yes, smaller places are covered as well as towns. We cover the whole of London and South East England. Let us know about access, parking and anything unusual about getting there when booking.

Does a conservation area affect roof work in Longmoor?

For listing, use Historic England’s list; for conservation areas, ask the council. It matters most if you are planning to re-roof in a different material.

Do you test for asbestos?

No. We don’t sample or test for asbestos. Where a material might contain it, such as old cement sheets on a building from before 2000, the report flags it.

Are you insured?

We hold professional indemnity and public liability insurance, for every survey we carry out.

Do you need access to all the flats?

We may do. If the roof space or a flat roof is reached through a flat, we need access to it so please give residents notice.

Do you advise on who is responsible under the lease?

No, that depends on the lease, so speak to your managing agent or a solicitor. Our job is to report on the roof itself.

Do you survey roofs on blocks of flats?

Yes, if whoever owns or manages the building agrees access. On a shared roof we can only inspect the parts we’re allowed to reach.

Prices for landlord roof surveys in Longmoor

Prices vary from roof to roof, for these reasons:

  • The number of roofs, including extensions and garages
  • Chimneys, valleys, parapets and other details
  • Commercial roofs and larger buildings
  • If the survey needs thermal imaging or a drone

Larger roofs, taller buildings and commercial roofs take longer, so they’re priced to match. You’ll know the figure before booking.

What to let us know when you contact us

Getting the details right at the start saves time. It is useful to include:

  • Your postcode, so we can check access and travel
  • Where water is showing inside, if it is
  • What made you get in touch
  • Anything about access we should know

To get a price for landlord roof surveys in Longmoor, ring 07833 053749 or use the contact form. The address, the type of property and what you’d like to know help us give you an accurate price.

How the survey works

Safety comes first on every visit. We inspect what can be seen safely, and if part of the roof cannot be seen, the report says so. The survey usually takes roughly 1–2 hours for a single let house, with blocks of flats taking longer. Around Longmoor, older homes can have small or awkward roof spaces, so tell us about the loft hatch and any ladder. Only areas that can be reached safely are inspected.

  1. We agree which roofs and which parts of the building are included.
  2. We confirm which flats and loft spaces we need to get into, and you arrange access.
  3. The roofs are inspected from the ground, vantage points, the loft space and the roof where it’s safe.
  4. Defects are photographed and their urgency noted.
  5. We send a written report you can use to plan maintenance and budgets.

How to prepare

  • Mention any parking restrictions on your street
  • If the roof is shared, arrange access with whoever manages the building
  • Note where any stains or damp appear

Advice

Why it’s worth a survey now in Longmoor

On a shared roof, disagreements are easier to settle with a clear record. Without a survey, it’s one opinion against another. For older village homes like those around Longmoor, the right replacement materials aren’t always easy to find quickly. Spotting a problem early leaves room to find them.

Our price is from £150, including VAT. Packages run from Basic at £150 through Standard at £250 to Premium at £400, with VAT included, and we can help you choose.

What we look for on each type of roof

Gutters and downpipes

Valley and box gutters on blocks can overflow inside. They’re an important part of the survey.

Party-wall upstands and parapets

Terraced roofs have party-wall upstands between houses. Joints and flashings on these walls can fail.

Longmoor homes and their roofs

What can be done to an older roof may depend on listing or a conservation area. The council is the place to check, along with Historic England’s list, before anyone quotes for re-roofing. A number of Hampshire villages keep thatched roofs on their older buildings. Slate and clay tile are the usual coverings on older South East houses, with concrete tiles on many later estates. Each of these coverings has its own weak points, from fixings and valleys to flashings, chimneys and gutters.

If you look after a building such as Greatham Primary School, a written record of a large roof helps plan work for the holidays rather than in term time. If you own a rental within reach of Liss station, a roof report helps you deal with small faults before they turn into a call from a tenant.
