Landlord roof survey in Madley Park: what you get
A landlord roof survey shows you the state of a roof, written up so you can plan. Landlords, letting agents, managing agents and freeholders all use it along with RTM and residents’ management companies. You get a written report with photos and recommendations, prioritised by urgency where relevant. The survey covers the roof, not the whole building. If you are worried about leaks into upper flats and missing or loose roof coverings, we can find out what’s behind it, whatever the roof.
Around Madley Park, gardens, hedges and nearby trees can mean leaves and moss end up on roofs and in gutters. Once gutters and outlets block, water spills over and soaks the walls. It’s the kind of slow problem a roof report picks up early. Moss on the roof and weeds in the gutter are both easy to spot from ground level.
Where we cannot see part of the let or shared roof, the report says so. You will know exactly what was inspected and what wasn’t, and what we’d suggest next.

Madley Park: your questions answered
Do you cover smaller places like Madley Park?
Yes. Madley Park is within the area we cover, which takes in towns, villages and rural addresses. Our area covers London and the South East. Let us know about access, parking and anything unusual about getting there when you book.
Does a conservation area affect roof work in Madley Park?
The council and Historic England’s list are the places to check. Either can affect what roof work is allowed, so it is worth checking before planning any.
Does the report help with maintenance planning?
Yes. It shows what needs attention now and what can be planned for later so you can plan spending. Repair costs aren’t included but it gives contractors a clear brief.
How many surveys have you done?
We have been surveying roofs for over 20 years and have completed over 5,000 surveys across London and the South East.
Will you check the loft?
Where it’s relevant to the survey and there’s safe access, yes. Please clear anything stored under the hatch, and if the loft cannot be reached safely, the report says so.
Will the survey cover the whole building?
No, it focuses on the roof. It’s not a RICS Level 2 or 3 survey, and it is not a structural engineer’s report.
Do I need to be at home?
Not necessarily. If we only need the outside, we can agree that beforehand, but the loft and any rooms with damp need someone to let us in.

How it works
We work from the outside in: outside views come first, then the loft space if there is safe access. All told, expect roughly 1–2 hours for a single let house, with blocks of flats taking longer. With a bit of garden around a house, as there frequently is around Madley Park, the roof can be viewed from several angles. Mention any side of the property we cannot get to. Inside, the loft is looked at where it can be reached safely.
- First, we confirm the scope and the purpose of the report.
- Access to flats and the loft space is arranged by you or your agent.
- Each roof is checked from safe vantage points and inside where possible.
- We photograph defects and note how urgent they look.
- A written condition report follows to help you plan.
Before we arrive
- If you’re buying, check with the agent that we can get in
- Have keys ready for side gates, garages or roof access doors
- Keep pets out of the way during the survey
How to book
To book a survey, phone 07833 053749 or drop us an email with the address and what you’d like to know about the roof. We will confirm the price before you book.
Advice
Common roof problems in Madley Park
On a shared roof, it is not always clear who should act. Each party may assume someone else is dealing with it, so maintenance gets put off. A condition report gives everyone the same starting point.
Look out for signs like these:
- Parapets and upstands in poor repair
- Blocked gutters over flats
- Standing water on a flat roof
- Loose ridge or hip tiles
If you let a flat or house near Combe station, knowing the condition of the roof, chimneys and gutters helps you plan work rather than react to complaints.
Before booking anyone
- Which parts of the roof they’ll actually see
- Will they check the loft as well as the outside?
- How much experience they have with roofs like yours
- Whether you can ask questions once you have the report
Landlord and commercial surveys in Madley Park
Freeholders and residents’ companies use a roof report to plan and budget, with the most urgent items set out first.
For blocks of flats, a roof survey helps managing agents and residents’ management companies plan ahead. The report sets out what needs attention now and what can wait.
How we price landlord roof surveys
Several things affect the price of a survey:
- How tall the building is and how easy the roof is to see
- The package you choose: Basic, Standard or Premium
- If the survey needs thermal imaging or a drone
- The size of the roof
We offer three survey packages: Basic from £150, Standard from £250 and Premium from £400, all with VAT included. The price for your roof depends on its size, access and what you want to find out.
Helping us price your survey
These details help when you get in touch:
- Pictures from the garden or a window, if you have them
- Why you want a survey: buying, a leak, a storm or new work
- Dates you are working to, such as exchange
- Your postcode, so we can check access and travel
For a price for landlord roof surveys in Madley Park, call 07833 053749 or drop us an email. The address, the type of property and what you want to find out help us price the survey accurately.
Why act early in Madley Park
Relying on what tenants report means relying on what they can see. By the time a stain appears, water may have been getting in for a while. We check the roof, not just the symptoms. On a bungalow or cottage around Madley Park, the roof sits close to the rooms below, so a small leak can mark a ceiling within a few storms. Catching the cause first saves redecorating as well.
Price depends partly on the package: from £150 for Basic, £250 for Standard and £400 for Premium, including VAT. Size, height and access can affect the price too.
Why book us in Madley Park
- Insured for professional indemnity and public liability
- Two decades and more of roof surveys
- Over 5,000 surveys carried out

What we can’t see
Every survey has limits, and it is better to know them up front. Bear these in mind:
- Who pays under the lease (that is a legal question)
- The rest of the building, as a RICS Level 2 or 3 survey would
- Roof areas we weren’t given access to
If you’re not sure which survey you need, call 07833 053749 or send us an email and we’ll give you a straight answer. What a survey covers and does not.

Local roofs in Madley Park
West Oxfordshire’s older buildings often carry Cotswold stone slates, and a few villages in the county keep their thatch. Across the South East, older homes tend to have slate or clay tiles, and many later ones concrete tiles. Knowing the covering helps explain which parts of a roof are likely to need work first. With Minster Lovell Hall about 2.9 miles west, Madley Park sits in an area with a long building history. On older houses around here, roofs often carry the marks of earlier repairs, from replaced slates to new lead, and the council can say whether a home is in a conservation area.
The streets around a church such as Church of Holy Trinity are often among the oldest in a place, and if your home is one of the older ones nearby, corroded nails, tired lead and weathered chimney pointing are the things to watch on older roofs. Take a building like Madley Brook Community Primary School: its roofs, gutters and any chimneys need the same checks as a house’s, just on a bigger scale.
