FAQs for Mislingford
Does a conservation area affect roof work in Mislingford?
You can check whether a building is listed on Historic England’s list, and your council can tell you if it’s in a conservation area. If a home is listed, changes that affect its special interest need listed building consent, and in a conservation area re-roofing in different materials may need permission.
Can a landlord with a rental near Botley station book a roof survey?
Yes, landlords and agents are among the people we work for. You can ring 07833 053749 or email us with the address and what you need.
Do you survey on Saturdays and Sundays?
Surveys can be booked for any day of the week: weekdays, Saturdays and Sundays. Just tell us the days that suit you.
How do I arrange a landlord roof survey in Mislingford?
Simply ring 07833 053749 or use the contact form. After a few questions, we confirm the price and fix a day, weekday or weekend.
How long have you been surveying roofs?
We have been surveying roofs for over 20 years and have carried out more than 5,000 surveys across London and South East England.
Does the weather affect the survey?
Light rain does not usually stop a survey. Heavy rain or strong wind can ground a drone and make the roof unsafe, so we’ll agree a new date if the weather isn’t suitable.

About our landlord roof survey in Mislingford
Access needs arranging before a survey of a let or shared building. The loft space and certain flats may need to be opened up for us and residents will need to be told ahead of time. Your agent or you arrange access, and we confirm what we need as you book. Where we cannot get into part of the building, the report says so. If you’re worried about missing or loose roof coverings and chimney stacks in poor repair, a survey will tell you what’s going on.
In a village or hamlet like Mislingford, older cottages and farmhouses often sit alongside barns, outbuildings and a few newer houses. Roofs there can be clay tile, slate, stone or thatch, and chimney stacks are often old. Each needs checking in its own way, and thatch is a specialist material we report on as far as it can be seen. On older roofs, it is typically the chimneys and lead flashings that need work first.
The report is written in plain words, so it makes sense without any roofing background. Photographs show what each point refers to, with the urgent items made clear.

For landlords and managing agents
Surveys can also be booked by buyers’ agents acting for a client. Reports are emailed, so they’re easy to pass on, photographs included.
We also survey roofs for businesses and commercial landlords, from shops and offices to industrial units. Larger roofs take longer, so they’re priced to suit.
How we price landlord roof surveys
To price your survey, we look at:
- If the survey needs thermal imaging or a drone
- How big the roof is
- The shape of the roof and its details
- Whether it’s a home or a commercial building
What a survey costs comes down to the roof itself: its size, its height, how many sections it has and how safely it can be seen. Landlord roof survey starts from £150, including VAT.
What we need to know
The more you tell us, the easier it is to price the survey. When you contact us, let us know:
- Dates you’re working to, such as exchange
- The kind of building and roof involved
- Any marks or damp showing indoors
- Where the property is, with the postcode
A quick phone call is typically the easiest start: ring 07833 053749 or use the contact form and we will ask a few questions about the roof. The price is agreed before a date is set.
Should I look at the roof myself first?
If you have a loft with safe access, take a look inside. Take a torch and only step on boards or joists, checking for stains, damp wood or chinks of daylight.
The one thing to avoid is getting up close. Slates, tiles, flat roofs and rooflights can give way, and a fall can be serious. That is where a survey comes in, using safe viewpoints and a drone where it applies.
Mislingford homes and their roofs
Thatch survives on some older buildings in Hampshire’s villages. Slate and clay tile are the usual coverings on older South East houses, with concrete tiles on many later estates. Whichever you have, the details that tend to fail before the covering itself get the closest look. Before planning roof work on an older home, find out whether it’s listed or in a conservation area. 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.
If you let a flat or house near Botley station, a dated record of the roof is useful when planning maintenance across a let. For site and facilities teams at buildings such as Swanmore College of Technology, its roofs, gutters and any chimneys need the same checks as a house’s, just on a bigger scale.

How the survey works
It helps to start with what’s prompted the survey: buying, a leak, storm damage, new work or just wanting to know where things stand. It helps us focus on what matters most to you. The visit typically takes between one and two hours at a typical home, though large, tall or awkward roofs take more time. Somewhere as small as Mislingford, access is frequently the only tricky part. Let us know about outbuildings, past repairs and any leaks you’ve noticed. Visits can be on weekdays, Saturdays or Sundays.
- First, we confirm the roofs and areas to be surveyed.
- We confirm which flats and loft spaces we need to get into, and you arrange access.
- The roofs are inspected from ground level, vantage points, the roof space and the roof where it is safe.
- Every defect we find is photographed and given a priority where relevant.
- You get a written condition report to help plan maintenance.
Getting ready for the survey
- Make a note of anything you’d like us to look at
- Make sure pets are kept safely away
- Note where any stains or damp appear

Why act early in Mislingford
Keeping a dated survey on file helps with future planning. Repeat surveys let you see how the roof is changing which helps with rolling maintenance. Where a roof is exposed, as many are in small places like Mislingford, driving rain gets into any weakness, and damp in older walls is slow to dry out.
We offer three survey packages: Basic from £150, Standard from £250 and Premium from £400, all including VAT. What your roof costs depends on its size, access and what you want to find out.
