What affects the cost of landlord roof surveys
Our packages start from £150, inc. VAT. The price for your roof depends on:
- How big the roof is
- Which survey package you book
- How complicated the roof is, with its valleys, chimneys and parapets
- The number of roofs, including extensions and garages
Simple, low roofs take less time to survey than tall or complicated ones, and the package matters as well. We’ll give you the figure before anything is booked.

Landlord roof survey in Nash: what you get
Landlords frequently book us when buying a property to rent out, others when a tenant reports a leak or damp. Agents and freeholders often want a survey for a rolling maintenance plan. Whatever the reason, the report follows the same clear format with photos and recommendations. We survey on weekdays and at weekends which can help when arranging access with residents. If you’ve noticed damaged pots and flaunching and ceiling stains reported by tenants, we can find out what’s behind it, on rented houses, flat roofs on blocks and shared roofs alike.
Some older homes in villages like Nash are 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. Knowing the roof’s condition helps you plan ahead with that in mind. Older materials such as clay tiles, slate and stone are often matched when work is done.
If any part of the let or shared roof couldn’t be seen safely, we say so in the report. You’ll know exactly what was inspected and what wasn’t.

What else we do in Nash
Tips from our surveys
Nothing here needs a ladder. Our suggestions:
- Have gutters and outlets cleared every year
- Keep the loft hatch clear and reachable
- Arrange flat access ahead of time
- Put urgent roof work at the top of the list
You receive a written report with photos and recommendations, prioritised by urgency where relevant. We send it by email so you can share it with owners, agents or contractors.
Have the roof looked at regularly, not just when it leaks. Many landlords and agents survey their roofs on a rolling basis, alongside yearly gutter clearing.
What we do, step by step
Every roof is different; as a rough guide, the survey takes about one to two hours for a house, and longer for a block or a building with several roofs. If you have questions on the day, just ask. Somewhere like Nash needs a little journey planning: let us know about lanes, gates and parking. On the day, we inspect everything that’s safely in view, inside and out.
- You let us know about the building, its roofs and any known leaks.
- We confirm the access we’ll need.
- The roofs are inspected from ground level, vantage points, the roof space and the roof where safe.
- The report records areas we couldn’t access.
- You receive photos and recommendations, prioritised where relevant.
Before the survey
- If you’re buying, check with the agent that we can get in

Roofs, chimneys and gutters in Nash
Across the South East, older homes tend to have slate or clay tiles, and many later ones concrete tiles, with flat-roofed extensions, dormers and garages common everywhere. On roofs like these, good slates or tiles can outlast the nails, battens, lead and mortar around them. There are about 500,000 buildings on England’s list of listed buildings, and around 10,000 conservation areas. If your 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, so check with the council.
If you own a rental within reach of Milton Keynes Central station, the gap between tenancies is a good time to have the roof looked at.

FAQs for Nash
How do I find out if my home in Nash is listed?
The council and Historic England’s list are the places to check. It’s worth checking before planning roof work, as both can affect what’s allowed.
Is Nash within the area you cover?
Yes, Nash is on our map. Villages and rural addresses get the same survey as a town house, with the route planned beforehand.
How do I arrange a landlord roof survey in Nash?
To book, ring 07833 053749 or email us and let us know the address and what you need to know. We’ll confirm the price and find a day that suits.
Do you survey roofs on blocks of flats?
Yes, as long as access is agreed. Roofs over flats are often shared, so we need permission from the freeholder or managing agent. We can only inspect what we are given access to.
Will you need to get into tenants’ homes?
It depends on the building. We may need the loft space and some or all of the top-floor flats and access is arranged by you or your agent. We will confirm what we need when you book.
Can you survey in bad weather?
It depends on the weather and the survey. In strong wind or a downpour, a drone can’t fly and access may not be safe, and we’d agree another day.
Does someone need to be in?
That depends on the survey. For inside areas and the loft space, someone has to give us access, while outside access can be discussed when you book.
What we’re asked to look at in Nash
Shared roofs can fall between owners. Everyone may think someone else is responsible, so maintenance gets put off. A condition report gives everyone the same starting point.
These are some of the problems a survey can pick up:
- Choked outlets and gutters
- Leaking joints at party walls
- Gaps where tiles or slates have slipped
- Ceiling stains reported by tenants
If your house is among the older ones in the streets near Church of All Saints, its chimney, valleys and lead work are likely to be the parts that need attention first.
Questions to ask before you book
- Is there a chance to talk the report through?
- Whether the inside of the roof is included
- Will the report include photos?
- How they plan to inspect the roof safely
Should I look at the roof myself first?
Your own check is a good start, but it is not a survey. From ground level, valleys, flashings and the backs of chimneys are frequently out of sight.
After heavy rain, check ceilings and the tops of walls for new stains. Take a photo and write down when you saw it, which helps when we look at the roof.
