Landlord roof surveys for homes and businesses in Nash
We check the same things on a let roof as on any other: slates or tiles, ridges, hips, valleys, flashings, chimneys, gutters and the loft. Flat roofs over blocks, rear additions and garages are covered too when they’re in the agreed scope. We also look at chimneys, parapets and party-wall upstands where it’s safe to see them, along with the loft space where there is safe access. We are often asked to look into cracked or leaning shared chimneys and slipped or missing slates and tiles, on flat roofs on blocks, shared roofs and rented houses.
London has Victorian and Edwardian terraces in almost every borough, often with slate roofs, chimney stacks shared with neighbours and gutters hidden behind parapets. Good slates can last over a hundred years, yet the nails often give out first and let slates slip. In Nash, as across London, that’s why a roof needs a careful look rather than a glance from the street. Lead flashings and shared chimney stacks on these houses need a proper look too.
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.

Local roofs in Nash
In outer London, interwar semis with hipped, tiled roofs sit alongside older slate-roofed terraces. Hips, bay roofs and later loft conversions are typical of those semis, if your home is one of them. Whichever you have, the details that tend to fail before the covering itself get the closest look. The wider area around Nash has a long history of building, with Down House about 2.4 miles south-east. Older roofs in the wider area can hide decades of patch repairs, so the detail matters, and any change of roofing material on a listed home needs checking with the council first.
Living close to Coney Hall Recreation Ground is pleasant, but mature trees mean leaves in gutters and valleys each autumn, and blocked gutters overflow and soak walls. For landlords with property near Hayes (Kent) station, a roof report helps you deal with small faults before they turn into a call from a tenant.

Nash questions
Do you survey roofs for landlords with property near Hayes (Kent) station?
Of course. We just need to know who will give access, and we can send the report to you or your agent.
Can parking be tricky for a visit in Nash?
Normally it is manageable with a little notice. Let us know what parking is available nearby, and the visit is planned around it.
How much does a landlord roof survey cost in Nash?
Our price is from £150, including VAT. We confirm the exact price before booking, and it depends on the roof’s size, access and the package you choose. For a price, call 07833 053749 or use the contact form.
Is it the same as a RICS Level 2 or Level 3 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, so it sits alongside a building survey rather than replacing it.
Do you work in Nash?
Yes. We survey roofs in Nash and the rest of Greater London, as part of our work across London and South East England. To book, ring 07833 053749 or drop us an email.
Can you survey at the weekend?
Surveys run on any day of the week. To arrange a date, call 07833 053749 or use the contact form.
Can you inspect my roof with a drone?
Yes, where it is applicable. Our sub-250g drone is flown by a CAA-registered operator with a Flyer ID and Operator ID, and every flight depends on the airspace and the weather.

Tips that help
These tips come from what we see on roofs every week, before and after a survey:
- File each roof report for future reference
- Have gutters and outlets cleared every year
- Survey the roof on a regular cycle
- Make leak reporting easy for tenants
Photos make it easier to explain the findings to leaseholders, tenants or directors. We keep the report clear and jargon-light.
Ask tenants and residents to report damp, stains or drips promptly. The sooner you know, the smaller the problem normally is.
Common roof problems in Nash
On a shared roof, it is not always clear who should act. Everyone may think someone else is responsible, so maintenance gets put off. A condition report gives everyone the same starting point.
Common reasons to book include:
- Splits and blisters in flat roof coverings
- Damp or stains in top-floor flats
- Slipped or missing slates and tiles
- Loose ridge or hip tiles
If you run a business near The Mall, a dated report on the roof is useful for planning and for any lease discussions.
Before booking any roof surveyor
- What insurance they carry
- How long they’ve been surveying roofs
- Whether the price includes VAT
- What they will not be able to tell you
How it works
After the inspection, everything we found is written up in a report with photos, sent to you by email. As for time on site, most surveys take between one and two hours at most homes, with bigger or more complicated roofs taking longer. London terraces rarely offer a view of the whole roof from one spot, so in Nash we work round the house, using the street, the windows, the loft and any safe vantage point behind it. If other people live in the building, let us know who can let us into the shared parts.
- 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.
- Each roof is checked as far as it can safely be seen, including from inside where possible.
- We photograph each defect and note how urgent it looks.
- You get a written condition report to help plan maintenance.
Before we arrive
- Jot down any questions you want answered
- Keep pets out of the way during the survey
- Clear the way to the loft hatch
Getting a price
If you have photos of the roof, send them over. Take them safely from the ground or a window. To get started, call 07833 053749 or email us.
Advice
What affects the cost of landlord roof surveys
Our packages start from £150, inc. VAT. What you pay for your roof depends on:
- Commercial roofs and larger buildings
- Basic, Standard or Premium
- How tall the building is and how easy the roof is to see
- How complicated the roof is, with its valleys, chimneys and parapets
What a survey costs comes down to the roof itself: how big it is, how high it is, the number of separate roofs and how it can be reached and seen safely. Landlord roof survey starts from £150, including VAT.
Booking your survey
A little information up front helps. Please include:
- Photos of the roof, taken safely from ground level or a window
- Any marks or damp showing indoors
- Why you want a survey: buying, a leak, a storm or new work
- Access details, such as a loft hatch or a shared roof
Every survey is priced before it’s booked, so you know the cost up front. Landlord roof survey starts from £150, including VAT. To book, phone 07833 053749 or use the contact form.
Roof by roof
Shared chimney stacks
Chimneys often let water in at the flashings. We note what we can see.
Party-wall upstands and parapets
Where a roof is shared with neighbours, we can only inspect what we’re given access to and note what couldn’t be seen.
