Landlord roof survey in Nursted
Shared roofs on blocks, converted houses and terraces raise their own questions. We check the roof from every safe vantage point including the loft and flats where access is arranged. The report records the condition of each part giving all parties the same information. Where neighbours share the roof, we can only inspect what we are given access to. We survey converted houses, gutters and downpipes and rented houses, and the problems we are asked to look at most are gutters overflowing onto walls and slipped or missing slates and tiles.
In a village or hamlet like Nursted, older cottages and farmhouses often sit alongside barns, outbuildings and a few newer houses. Older roofs may be clay tile, slate, stone or thatch, often with chimneys that have stood a long time. We report on everything that’s safely in view, and thatch is a specialist material. On older roofs, it’s normally the chimneys and lead flashings that need work first.
The report works through the roof section by section, from the main slopes down to the gutters and outlets, with a note and a photo for each point. You will see the good as well as the bad.

What a landlord roof survey looks like in Nursted
Thatch survives on some older buildings in Hampshire’s villages. Across the South East, older homes tend to have slate or clay tiles, and many later ones concrete tiles. Each of these coverings has its own weak points, from fixings and valleys to flashings, chimneys and gutters. The wider area around Nursted has a long history of building, with Uppark about 2.5 miles south-east. If your home is one of the older ones, expect a mix of original materials and later repairs on the roof, and a listed home or one in a conservation area may need consent for changes of material.
If you let a flat or house near Petersfield station, the gap between tenancies is a good time to have the roof looked at.

Nursted: your questions answered
Is my home in Nursted listed or in a conservation area?
Start with Historic England’s list for listing and your council for conservation areas. It is worth checking before planning roof work, as both can affect what’s allowed.
Do you cover smaller places like Nursted?
Yes, we do. We cover the whole of London and South East England, and smaller places are part of that. The journey is planned ahead, so it’s useful to know about access.
Does someone need to be in?
If the survey includes the loft or the inside of the building, someone needs to let us in. We will talk about access when booking.
What access do you need for a block roof survey?
We may do. Where the loft or roof can only be reached through a home, we’ll need to go in so please give residents notice.
Can you survey in bad weather?
Light rain is typically fine; heavy rain and wind are different. In strong wind or a downpour, a drone can’t fly and access may not be safe, so we’d move the date with you.
Is the report suitable for a maintenance plan?
Yes. It shows what needs attention now and what can be planned for later, which helps you plan work and budgets. Repair costs aren’t included but it gives contractors a clear brief.
Can your report tell us who pays for the roof work?
No, we do not advise on leases, so ask your managing agent or a solicitor. We report on the roof’s condition and what needs attention.
What happens if roof problems are left?
An independent report helps when owners need to agree on roof work. Without a survey, it is one opinion against another. Outbuildings and barns around Nursted are easy to forget, but a failed roof there can spoil what’s stored inside. It’s worth including them in a survey before a winter does the damage.
A small, low roof with good viewpoints takes less time than a tall, complicated one, and the package you pick makes a difference too. We’ll give you the figure before anything is booked.

Checking the roof from the ground
If you have a loft with safe access, take a look inside. Use a torch and stay on the joists or boards, and look for staining, damp timber or daylight coming through.
It helps to keep a record: when leaks happen, ground-level photos and any past roof work. Share it with us when booking, as it helps us focus the survey.
How the survey works
You don’t need to do much on the day. Point out anything you’ve noticed, such as stains, drips or loose pieces, and we will take it from there. A typical survey takes between one and two hours for a single let house, with blocks of flats taking longer. Rural addresses near Nursted 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 agree the roofs to be surveyed and what you need the report for.
- Access to flats and the roof space is arranged by you or your agent.
- We inspect each roof as far as it can be seen safely.
- We photograph defects and note how urgent they look.
- You get a written report to plan maintenance and budgets.
Before the survey
- Clear the way to the loft hatch
- Have any questions written down, so nothing gets missed
- Point out any leaks or damp patches

When to book a survey in Nursted
Landlords need to plan spending on a building. Without a recent survey, it is hard to know what the roof needs or when.
Common reasons to book include:
- Cracked or lifting flashings
- Worn ridges, hips and verges
- Choked outlets and gutters
- Ponding or splits on flat roofs
For site and facilities teams at buildings such as The Petersfield School, long gutter runs and wide roofs on a building that size are worth checking on a regular cycle.
