Local roofs in Myrke
About 1.2 miles south-west lies Windsor Castle, a reminder of how long the area around Myrke has been built on. If your house is among the older ones, expect a mix of original materials and later repairs on the roof. Older houses in the South East often have slate or clay tile roofs, while many later estates have concrete tiles, with flat-roofed extensions, dormers and garages common everywhere. Knowing the covering helps explain which parts of a roof are likely to need work first.
Anyone responsible for a site like Long Close School will know that its roofs, gutters and any chimneys need the same checks as a house’s, just on a bigger scale. If your house is among the older ones in the streets near Church of St Laurence, the nails, lead and mortar on the roof may be wearing out even where the slates or tiles look fine. Landlords with a home close to Slough station may find that a roof report helps you deal with small faults before they turn into a call from a tenant.

Landlord roof surveys for homes and businesses in Myrke
The lease usually decides who is responsible for the roof and who pays. We can’t advise on what your lease says but we can give you an independent record of the roof’s condition. That can help when owners, freeholders and agents need to agree what happens next. You get photos and written recommendations, prioritised by urgency where relevant. We’re frequently asked to look into slipped or missing slates and tiles and blocked gutters over flats, on blocks of flats, gutters and downpipes 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. Older walls take a long time to dry once water gets in. A roof report shows what needs attention first. On exposed older roofs, chimneys and lead flashings are often the first to give way.
You can share the report with anyone who needs it: a seller or estate agent, an insurer, a roofer, a builder or a managing agent, whichever applies.

What affects the price in Myrke
Prices vary from roof to roof, for these reasons:
- How big the roof is
- The use of thermal imaging or a drone
- Chimneys, valleys, parapets and other details
- Extensions, dormers and garages with roofs of their own
Prices quoted always include VAT, and the report is not charged as an extra. Our price is from £150, including VAT. Size, height and access decide where your roof falls.
Booking your survey
There’s no need for technical words. Just tell us:
- How the loft is reached, if there is one
- Any stains, drips or damp patches you’ve seen indoors
- The property’s address and postcode
- When you need the report by
For a price for landlord roof surveys in Myrke, call 07833 053749 or drop us an email. Some details about the property and the roof help us price the survey accurately.
Rented homes, blocks and businesses
Shared roofs need a little more planning: we need access agreed with whoever owns or manages the building. Tell us about it when booking and we’ll plan the visit with that in mind.
Letting agents can arrange access with tenants, at a time agreed in advance. Surveys run on weekdays and at weekends, which helps when tenants work during the week.
Why get it checked now?
A planned maintenance budget needs real information. A survey shows what needs attention now and what can be planned for later, so spending can be spread sensibly. Around Myrke, older homes often have old roof timbers, and water through a failed covering can rot timber if it’s left.
We offer three survey packages: the Basic Survey from £150, the Standard Survey from £250 and the Premium Survey from £400, with VAT included. The price for your roof depends on its size, access and what you need to know.

What happens on the day
Once we have finished looking, we write up our findings as a photo-illustrated written report. As for time on site, most surveys take roughly 1–2 hours for most houses, with bigger or more complicated roofs taking longer. Rural addresses near Myrke can be hard to find from a postcode alone, so a few directions are welcome. After that, the survey runs as it would anywhere.
- We start by agreeing the scope, roof by roof.
- We confirm which flats and loft spaces we need to get into, and you arrange access.
- We inspect each roof from safe vantage points, the loft space and the roof itself where safe.
- We photograph each defect and note how urgent it looks.
- The report sets out condition and recommendations to help you plan.
How to prepare
- Clear the way to the loft hatch
- Make a note of anything you’d like us to look at
- Mention any parking restrictions on your street

Related advice
Checking the roof from ground level
After strong wind, take a look from the pavement or garden: pieces of tile or slate on the ground, a gap in the ridge or a lifted flashing are all worth noting. Do not go up yourself.
Keep a simple record: when leaks happen, ground-level photos and any past roof work. Send it with your enquiry and it will help the survey.
Questions from Myrke
Do you survey roofs for landlords with property near Slough station?
Yes, landlords and agents book with us as well as owners. Just call 07833 053749 or use the contact form and let us know about the building, including who will give access on the day.
Will you come out to Myrke?
Yes, we do. Our area covers London and South East England, from towns to the smallest villages. Longer journeys are simply planned in advance.
Is this a RICS survey?
No. Our survey is a roof survey, not a RICS Level 2 or Level 3 survey of the whole building. It focuses on the roof and can sit alongside a RICS survey.
How long will you be at the property?
It normally takes an hour or two for a single let house, with blocks of flats taking longer. The written report follows by email, on the timescale of your package.
Is the report suitable for a maintenance plan?
Yes, that’s one of the main reasons clients book. Surveying again later shows what has changed to keep your plan up to date.
Do you survey roofs on blocks of flats?
Yes, if whoever owns or manages the building agrees access. We look at the parts we’re given access to.
How many surveys have you done?
Over 5,000 surveys so far, across 20+ years of surveying roofs, with 98% customer satisfaction.
Honest limits
Our findings are based on what we can see safely on the day, so there are some things a survey cannot cover:
- Who pays under the lease (that is a legal question)
- Structural calculations or an engineer’s report
- Areas behind locked flats or blocked hatches
Not sure which survey suits your roof? You can call 07833 053749 or use the contact form and we’ll tell you before booking. The full list of what we check.
