Mundy Bois questions
Does a conservation area affect roof work in Mundy Bois?
Your council is the best source, with Historic England’s list for listed buildings. Both listing and conservation areas can limit changes of roofing material.
Is Mundy Bois within the area you cover?
Yes, Mundy Bois is covered. We cover the whole of London and South East England, and smaller places are part of that. The journey is planned ahead, so it helps to know about access.
Does someone need to be in?
Not necessarily. An outside-only look can be arranged beforehand, but the loft and any rooms with damp need someone to let us in.
Can you inspect my roof with a drone?
Yes, where applicable and safe. We fly a sub-250g drone and we’re a CAA-registered drone operator (Flyer ID and Operator ID). It is included in the Drone Roof Survey and, where it applies, the Premium Survey.
How much is a landlord roof survey?
Landlord roof survey starts from £150, including VAT. The price depends on the size of the building and the number of roofs. For a price, phone 07833 053749 or send us an email.
Who typically books a landlord or block roof survey?
Landlords, letting agents, managing agents and freeholders book it, as well as RTM and residents’ management companies. Owners in a shared building book it too.
How many surveys have you done?
We’ve been surveying roofs for over 20 years and have carried out more than 5,000 surveys.
Landlord roof survey in Mundy Bois: what you get
Roofs on let houses and blocks of flats are easy to forget until something leaks. Surveying the roof first helps you spot defects early so work can be planned, not rushed. You get a written report with photos that you can keep with the building’s records. Many landlords and agents repeat it every few years to keep maintenance plans current. We’re frequently asked to look into blocked gutters over flats and splits and blisters in flat roof coverings, on shared roofs, rented houses and converted houses.
Village roofs often face open fields and take the full force of wind and rain, which is hard on ridges, chimneys, flashings and gutters. 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. Lead flashings and old chimney stacks are frequently where weather gets in first.
The written findings come by email, easy to pass on to a roofer, an agent or an insurer. Turnaround is within 48 hours for Basic, 24–48 hours for Standard and same day for Premium.

Leave it or get it looked at?
An independent report helps when owners need to agree on roof work. Without one, each party may have a different view of what’s wrong. Older and listed buildings around Mundy Bois may need consent and matching materials for repairs, so leaving a defect until it’s urgent leaves less time to plan.
The cost of a survey depends on the roof: how big it is, how high it is, the number of separate roofs and how safely it can be seen. Prices start from £150, including VAT.

Landlords, agents and block managers in Mundy Bois
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. Recommendations are set out by urgency where it matters, which helps with budgets and planning.
How the survey changes by roof type
Pitched roofs on houses and blocks
Most let houses and many blocks have pitched roofs of slate or tiles. Coverings, ridges, hips, valleys and flashings are inspected as far as can be seen safely.
Shared chimney stacks
Many terraces and conversions have shared stacks. We check pots, flaunching, pointing and flashings as far as can be seen.

Useful tips for Mundy Bois property owners
You do not need to be a roofer to help. Here’s what helps most:
- Have gutters and outlets cleared every year
- Get legal advice on lease responsibilities
- Don’t store items over the loft hatch
- Survey the roof on a regular cycle
Questions about who pays under the lease are for your managing agent or a solicitor. What we provide is an independent record of condition to help those discussions.
Have the roof looked at regularly, not just when it leaks. A survey every few years suits many let and shared buildings, alongside yearly gutter clearing.
Mundy Bois homes and their roofs
Handmade clay tiles, including Kent peg tiles hung on pegs through two holes, are typical of older Kent buildings. The county’s older buildings also include oast houses and timber-framed Wealden hall houses. Knowing the covering helps explain which parts of a roof are likely to need work first. Historic houses such as Godinton House, about 5 miles east, show how far back building in the area around Mundy Bois goes. Older roofs in the wider area can hide decades of patch repairs, so the detail matters.
Landlords with a home close to Pluckley station may find that the gap between tenancies is a good time to have the roof looked at. Anyone responsible for a site like Egerton Church of England Primary School will know that long gutter runs and wide roofs on a building that size are worth checking on a regular cycle. Take an older house close to Church of St James: old fixings, lead flashings and tall chimneys are typical of older roofs.

What affects the price in Mundy Bois
Our packages start from £150, with VAT included. What you pay for your roof depends on:
- How tall the building is and how easy the roof is to see
- If the survey needs thermal imaging or a drone
- Features like valleys, chimneys, dormers and parapets
- Extra roofs, like extensions, dormers or garages
The Premium Survey includes thermal imaging and drone inspection where applicable, from £400 inc. VAT. We will tell you which package suits the questions you have.
Booking your survey
You don’t need to know any roofing terms. It’s enough to tell us:
- Pictures of the roof from a safe spot, if you have them
- How the loft is reached, if there is one
- What’s prompted the survey
- Your postcode, so we can check access and travel
You can call us seven days a week, including Saturdays and Sundays. To book or ask a question, ring 07833 053749 or send us an email.
How it works
Expect us to ask a few questions before we start, about the roof’s history, any leaks and past repairs. Then the inspection itself takes between one and two hours at most homes, while a commercial roof takes nearer three to four hours. For a village or hamlet like Mundy Bois, the journey is planned ahead of time: let us know about lanes, gates and parking. On the day, we inspect what can be seen safely, inside and out.
- We start by agreeing the scope, roof by roof.
- Access to flats and the loft space is arranged with you beforehand.
- We inspect each roof from safe vantage points, the roof space and the roof itself where safe.
- We photograph each defect and note how urgent it looks.
- We send a written report you can use to plan maintenance and budgets.
Getting ready for the survey
- If the roof is shared, arrange access with whoever manages the building
- Make sure pets are kept safely away
- Move anything stored under the loft hatch
