How a landlord roof survey works in Monxton
Our landlord and block roof surveys cover Monxton and the rest of London and South East England. A visit usually takes about one to two hours for a house, and longer for a block or a building with several roofs. Everything is inspected as far as it can safely be seen including by drone where it applies. You then get a written report with photos. We survey flat roofs on blocks, converted houses and shared roofs, and common reasons people get in touch are ponding or splits on flat roofs and worn ridges, hips and verges.
Older buildings in small places like Monxton may be listed or in a conservation area. If yours is, re-roofing in different materials may need consent, so the council is the place to check. A roof report helps you plan work with that in mind. Older materials like clay tiles, slate and stone are often matched when work is done.
Report times depend on the survey you book: the Basic Survey within 48 hours, the Standard Survey in 24 to 48 hours and the Premium Survey on the same day.

What happens on the day
The visit has one job: to see as much of the let or shared roof as can safely be seen and record it clearly. Everything we note and photograph goes into the written report. It usually takes between one and two hours for a house, and longer for a block or a building with several roofs. Cottages and farmhouses around Monxton frequently have roofs at several levels, with lean-tos and outbuildings attached. Each part is looked at from wherever it can safely be seen.
- We start with what you know about the building and its history.
- We confirm the access we’ll need.
- We check coverings, flashings, gutters and chimneys where they can be seen.
- The report records areas we couldn’t access.
- Findings and recommendations are set out with photographs.
Getting ready for the survey
- Keep pets inside or away from the areas we’re looking at
- Move anything stored under the loft hatch
- If you are buying, let the agent know when we are coming

Signs you need a landlord roof survey in Monxton
People living in a building seldom see the roof itself. Defects up on the roof can go unreported for a long time particularly where the roof can’t be seen from the street.
Most people get in touch after spotting something like this:
- Parapets and upstands in poor repair
- Blocked gutters over flats
- Flashings that have come away
- Ponding or splits on flat roofs
Take a building like Amport Church of England Primary School: a written record of a large roof helps plan work for the holidays rather than in term time.
Choosing a roof surveyor
- Their insurance cover
- How they’ll see the roof: from ground level, the loft, the roof or by drone
- Whether any drone flown is registered with the CAA
- Will they check the loft as well as the outside?
Monxton homes and their roofs
Listing and conservation areas can both shape what roof work is allowed on an older home. The council is the place to check, along with Historic England’s list, ideally before any re-roofing is planned. Thatch survives on some older buildings in Hampshire’s villages. Across the South East, older homes tend to have slate or clay tiles, and many later ones concrete tiles. Whatever the covering, it’s frequently the fixings, flashings, valleys and gutters that give out first.
For an older house near a landmark such as Church of St Mary, its roof may have old fixings, lead flashings and chimneys that need a closer look. If you let a flat or house near Andover station, a dated record of the roof is useful when planning maintenance across a let.
Monxton is about 3 miles west of Andover, in Hampshire. In Monxton, as across Hampshire, every roof gets the same careful survey. Our Hampshire coverage includes Monxton. Southampton is in our area too.

Monxton: your questions answered
I let a flat near Andover station. Can you check the roof?
Yes, letting agents and landlords book with us as well as owners. You can call 07833 053749 or send us an email with the address and a few details.
Do you cover smaller places like Monxton?
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 as you book.
How many surveys have you done?
We’ve completed more than 5,000 surveys, over more than 20 years, with 98% customer satisfaction.
Do I need to be at home?
That depends on the survey. Inside the building and in the loft, we need someone to let us in, while outside access can be discussed when you book.
Are you insured?
Professional indemnity and public liability insurance cover our surveys. Ask if you need details for a managing agent or building owner.
Is this an asbestos survey?
No. Asbestos surveys and testing are not part of what we do. If we see materials that could contain asbestos, like cement roof sheets or soffits on buildings from before 2000, we flag them.
Can we use the survey to plan a roof budget?
Yes, that’s one of the main reasons clients book. A repeat survey later shows how the roof has changed, which suits a rolling plan.
Prices for landlord roof surveys in Monxton
What a survey costs depends on the time and equipment it needs. That comes down to:
- How big the roof is
- The height of the building and how the roof can safely be seen
- The use of thermal imaging or a drone
- How complicated the roof is, with its valleys, chimneys and parapets
To find out what your survey will cost, ring 07833 053749 or email us and let us know about the roof. The price is agreed before a date is set.
Helping us price your survey
Some details help us point you to the right survey and price. When you contact us, it is useful to mention:
- Any stains, drips or damp patches you’ve seen indoors
- The type of building and roof, such as pitched or flat
- The address and postcode of the property
- When you need the report by
Most bookings start with a short call: call 07833 053749 or send us an email. You will have a price before anything is arranged.
What we look for on each type of roof
Roof spaces and lofts
Access to the loft may be through a flat or a common area and you will need to arrange it.
Pitched roofs on houses and blocks
Most let houses and many blocks have pitched roofs of slate or tiles. We check coverings, ridges, hips, valleys and flashings where it’s safe to see them.
Should I look at the roof myself first?
It is useful to keep a record: when leaks happen, ground-level photos and any past roof work. Share it with us when you book, as it helps us focus the survey.
What you cannot do safely is get up close. Roofs are fragile and slippery, and a fall can be serious. That part is for a survey, using safe viewpoints and a drone where applicable.
