Landlord roof surveys for homes and businesses in Middleton
Getting into every part of a building takes planning. The roof space and certain flats may need to be opened up for us and residents will need to be told in advance. Your agent or you arrange access, and we confirm what we need as you book. Any part we couldn’t reach is noted in the report. If you’re worried about damaged party-wall upstands or parapets and missing or loose roof coverings, we can find out what’s behind it, whatever the roof.
In a small place like Middleton, many roofs stand in the open, so ridges, chimney stacks, flashings and gutters work hard. Older walls take a long time to dry once water gets in. A roof report shows what needs attention first. Lead flashings and old chimney stacks are frequently where weather gets in first.
Every survey ends with a written report, with photos, sent by email. It sets out the condition of the let or shared roof, any defects and our written recommendations.

Landlords, agents and block managers in Middleton
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.
Where a roof is shared: we need access agreed with the building owner or managing agent. Tell us about it as you book and we will plan the visit with that in mind.
Signs you need a landlord roof survey in Middleton
Older buildings across London and the South East have roofs that are decades old. Nails, battens, flashings and underlay frequently fail before good slates or tiles, and a survey helps show where that’s happening.
Look out for signs like these:
- Missing or loose roof coverings
- Mortar falling from ridges and verges
- Leaking joints at party walls
- Ceiling stains reported by tenants
If you own a rental within reach of Whitchurch (Hampshire) station, a roof report between tenancies helps plan work before a small defect becomes a tenant’s leak.
Choosing a roof surveyor
- What exactly goes into their report
- How soon the report will arrive
- Whether VAT is added on top
- Their drone registration, if they fly one
Honest limits
In fairness, there are limits to any roof survey:

Common questions in Middleton
Is Middleton within the area you cover?
Yes, Middleton is covered. We survey roofs across London and South East England, from towns to the smallest villages. Longer journeys are simply planned in advance.
Do you survey roofs for landlords with property near Whitchurch (Hampshire) station?
Of course. Let us know whether a tenant or an agent will let us in, and we can send the report to you or your agent.
Can you survey at the weekend?
Visits run seven days a week in the daytime. Just say which days work for you.
Can you survey a shared roof?
Yes, if the building owner or managing agent agrees access. On a shared roof we can only inspect the parts we’re allowed to reach.
Will you go up on the roof?
Only when it is safe. Safety comes first, and fragile or steep roofs cannot always be walked on. Safe viewpoints, the loft and a drone where it applies let us see the rest, and the report records anything we couldn’t see.
What does a roof survey cost?
Our price is from £150, including VAT. What you pay for your roof depends on its size, height, access and the package.
How experienced are you?
More than 5,000 surveys over 20+ years.

How it works
Before we start, let us know why you’ve booked: a purchase, a leak, a storm, new work or simply peace of mind. That way we can focus on what matters to you. The visit normally takes an hour or two at most homes, rising to roughly 3–4 hours on a commercial building. Older rural homes like those around Middleton can have a main roof, lower lean-to roofs and outbuildings all joined together. Each part is looked at from wherever it can be seen safely, and anything we cannot see is noted.
- We start by agreeing the scope, roof by roof.
- Access to flats and the roof space is arranged with you in advance.
- The roofs are inspected from the ground, vantage points, the loft space and the roof where it’s safe.
- Defects are photographed and their urgency noted.
- We send a written report you can use to plan maintenance and budgets.
Preparing for the visit
- Unlock side gates and any roof access doors
- Point out any leaks or damp patches
- If you are buying, check with the agent that we can get in
How to book
If you have photos of the roof, send them over. Pictures from ground level or a window are fine. To send them or to book, ring 07833 053749 or drop us an email.
Advice
What a landlord roof survey looks like in Middleton
If your home is older, it’s worth knowing whether it is listed or in a conservation area before planning roof work. Changes that affect a listed building’s special interest need listed building consent, and councils can also use Article 4 directions to control changes in conservation areas. 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. On roofs like these, good slates or tiles can outlast the nails, battens, lead and mortar around them.
For site and facilities teams at buildings such as Longparish Church of England Primary School, long gutter runs and wide roofs on a building that size are worth checking on a regular cycle. The streets around a church such as Church of St Nicholas are often among the oldest in a place, and if your house is among the older ones nearby, the nails, lead and mortar on the roof may be wearing out even where the slates or tiles look fine.
