About our landlord roof survey in New Haw
The lease normally decides who is responsible for the roof and who pays. We don’t give legal advice on leases but we can give you an independent record of the roof’s condition. It helps owners and managers discuss the next steps from the same facts. You get photos and written recommendations, prioritised by urgency where relevant. We survey gutters and downpipes, converted houses and shared roofs, and common reasons people get in touch are cracked or lifting flashings and splits and blisters in flat roof coverings.
In a smaller place like New Haw, homes range from older cottages to bungalows and newer houses. Coverings range from slate and clay tiles on older homes to concrete tiles on many later ones. On older homes, chimney stacks, valleys and gutters are typically where the work is, and the fixings under the coverings matter too. Nails and battens under older coverings frequently give out before the slates or tiles themselves.
How fast the report arrives depends on the package: the Basic Survey within 48 hours, the Standard Survey in 24 to 48 hours and the Premium Survey on the same day.

Roofs, chimneys and gutters in New Haw
Many older homes in Surrey have handmade clay tiles and tile-hung upper walls. Some old buildings in Surrey and Sussex have Horsham stone slab roofs. Whichever you have, the details that tend to fail before the covering itself get the closest look. The wider area around New Haw has a long history of building, with Byfleet Manor about 1.9 miles south-east. Older roofs in the wider area can hide decades of patch repairs, so the detail matters, and a listed home or one in a conservation area may need consent for changes of material.
For site and facilities teams at buildings like The Grange Community Infant School, its roofs, gutters and any chimneys need the same checks as a house’s, just on a bigger scale. Living close to Manor Farm is pleasant, but mature trees mean leaves in gutters and valleys each autumn.
New Haw is about 2 miles south-west of Weybridge, in Surrey. Bookings from New Haw are handled just like any other: get in touch, agree the price and pick a day. Our area takes in places right across Surrey. Guildford is in our area too.
Landlord roof surveys in KT15 work the same way as everywhere else we cover. If you need a landlord roof survey at a property on Hawthorn Way, Woodham Lane and Mayfield Avenue or a nearby road, we can survey it. You’ll find New Haw on the A318 and B385, so it is easy for us to get to. We also cover Byfleet (1 mile south-east), Brooklands (1 mile east), Addlestone (1 mile north), Wisley (2 miles south) and St George's Hill (2 miles east). Larger places within reach include Guildford (8 miles south-west), Woking (4 miles south-west), Camberley (10 miles west), Epsom (10 miles east), Ewell (10 miles east) and Egham (6 miles north-west).
Near you in New Haw
We work in homes and buildings around Manor Farm, Fullbrook School and The Station pub, among other places. The closest station to New Haw is Byfleet & New Haw station, roughly 0.6 miles east. Well-known places in the area include The Hockey Museum (3.6 miles south-west) and Runnymede Hospital (2.3 miles north-west). For a walk, there’s Papercourt Marshes and Ferris Meadow Lake.
Checking the roof from ground level
Keep a simple record: dates of leaks, photos from the ground and any work done on the roof. Share it with us as you book.
A DIY look is useful, but it is not a survey. From the ground, valleys, flashings and the backs of chimneys are often out of sight, and those are details a survey looks at closely.
Your questions about landlord roof surveys in New Haw
Is New Haw within the area you cover?
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 when booking.
Do you survey roofs for landlords with property near Byfleet & New Haw station?
Yes, that’s a common request. Let us know whether a tenant or an agent will let us in, and we can send the report to you or your agent.
Can you tell me if my roof has asbestos?
No. Asbestos surveys and sampling aren’t something we do. The report may flag materials that could contain asbestos on buildings built or refurbished before 2000, with a recommendation to have a specialist asbestos surveyor check before it is disturbed.
Do you survey roofs on blocks of flats?
Yes, as long as access is agreed. Roofs over flats are often shared, so whoever owns or manages the building needs to agree access. We can only inspect what we’re given access to.
Does someone need to be in?
Someone needs to let us in if we are looking inside or in the loft. Access is agreed with you when booking.
How experienced are you?
We have completed more than 5,000 surveys, across 20+ years of surveying roofs, with 98% customer satisfaction.
Will you walk on the roof?
Only if it is safe. We inspect whatever is safely visible: from the ground, from windows, from inside the roof space, from the roof where it’s safe and by drone where it applies. The report says if anything couldn’t be seen.
How the survey changes by roof type
Shared chimney stacks
Chimney stacks are frequently shared between houses or flats. We check pots, flaunching, pointing and flashings as far as can be seen.
Party-wall upstands and parapets
Terraced roofs have party-wall upstands between houses. Joints and flashings on these walls can fail.
Why get it checked now?
A contractor’s quote tells you what they propose to do. An independent survey tells you the roof’s condition first, so you can compare quotes on the same basis. Blocked gutters on homes around New Haw overflow and soak walls. Dealing with the cause is simple; drying out a wall is not.
A small, low roof with good viewpoints takes less time than a tall, complicated one, and the package matters as well. We will give you the figure before anything is booked.
Why book with us
- Covered by professional indemnity and public liability insurance
- Drones and thermal imaging where applicable

Do you need a landlord roof survey in New Haw?
Roofs on let and shared buildings often get less regular attention than owner-occupied homes. Minor faults can go unseen until a tenant reports a leak, by which point the damage has spread.
A survey can pick up problems such as:
- Cracked or leaning shared chimneys
- Leaking joints at party walls
- Standing water on a flat roof
- Missing or loose roof coverings
Landlords with a home close to Byfleet & New Haw station may find that knowing the condition of the roof, chimneys and gutters helps you plan work rather than react to complaints.
Choosing a roof surveyor

The survey, step by step
There is not much for you to do on the day. Show us any stains, drips or problem areas you know about, and we’ll take it from there. A typical survey takes an hour or two for most houses, and more on a big or complicated roof. A visit to a smaller place like New Haw is no different on the day: we look from ground level, from windows, from the loft and from the roof where it’s safe. It helps to show us anything you’ve already noticed.
- You tell us about the building, its roofs and any known leaks.
- We confirm the access we will need.
- The roofs are inspected from ground level, vantage points, the loft space and the roof where safe.
- The report records areas we couldn’t access.
- You receive photos and recommendations, prioritised where relevant.
How to prepare
- Make sure the loft hatch can be reached
- If the roof is shared, arrange access with whoever manages the building
- Make a note of anything you’d like us to look at
