Landlord roof survey in Peters Village: what you get
A landlord roof survey covers the usual parts of a roof: 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 roof space where there’s safe access. Common reasons to book are blocked gutters over flats and damaged pots and flaunching, across rented houses, converted houses and gutters and downpipes.
In a smaller place like Peters Village, some roofs stand more exposed to wind and rain than in a built-up town. That weather tells first on ridges, verges, chimneys and flashings. A proper look shows whether anything has started to loosen before it lets water in. Once one ridge tile or slate moves, wind gets under the next one too.
You receive the findings by email, ready to forward to whoever needs them. Basic reports come within 48 hours, Standard within 24–48 hours and Premium on the day.

Practical tips
You don’t need to be a roofer to help. What helps most:
- Make leak reporting easy for tenants
- Survey the roof on a regular cycle
- Don’t store items over the loft hatch
- Deal with urgent items first
If anything in the report needs explaining, ask us. The Standard Survey includes a follow-up consultation, and Premium includes an in-person consultation.
Keep gutters and outlets clear, particularly on blocks with valleys or parapets. Blocked gutters are a common cause of leaks into top-floor flats.

FAQs for Peters Village
Is my home in Peters Village listed or in a conservation area?
Historic England’s list shows listed buildings, and the local council can tell you about conservation areas. Listed building consent is needed for changes that affect a listed building’s special interest, and conservation areas can limit changes of roofing material.
Will you come out to Peters Village?
We do. A small place gets exactly the same survey as a big one, with the route planned beforehand.
Do you survey roofs shared between flats?
Yes. We inspect the parts we’re given access to, as far as they can safely be seen. Areas we couldn’t see are noted as well as what could.
How do I arrange a landlord roof survey in Peters Village?
It’s easiest to ring 07833 053749 or use the contact form. Give us the address and a few details about the roof, and we will take it from there. Surveys run seven days a week.
Do you carry professional indemnity insurance?
Every survey is covered by professional indemnity and public liability insurance, and details are available on request.
Do you advise on who is responsible under the lease?
No. Who pays is usually set by the lease, and that’s a legal question. Our report gives an independent record of the roof’s condition that everyone can refer to.
How long does a landlord roof survey take?
It normally takes about one to two hours for a single let house, with blocks of flats taking longer. You’ll know roughly how long when we arrange it.
Honest limits
A survey is a close look at the let or shared roof, but it can’t do everything. The main limits are:
- Whether materials contain asbestos (a specialist asbestos surveyor’s job)
- Parts of the roof we can’t safely see or access
- Walls, floors and services beyond the roof
If in doubt, ring 07833 053749 or use the contact form and we’ll suggest the right survey before you book. What a survey covers and does not.
Roof types and parts we check
- Shared roofs
- Rented houses

- Gutters and downpipes
- Converted houses
- Blocks of flats
Why act early in Peters Village
A leak in a block rarely stays in one place. Spotting roof defects early helps protect the whole building. On a bungalow or cottage around Peters Village, the roof sits close to the rooms below, so water can show inside quickly once it gets past the covering. Catching the cause first saves redecorating as well.

How it works
Every visit follows the same pattern: we listen to what’s been worrying you, look at the roof from every safe viewpoint, take photos as we go and record our findings for the written report. Most visits take an hour or two for a house, and more on a big or complicated roof. A visit to Peters Village is planned like any other: the time, the access and where to park are agreed beforehand. Visits can be on weekdays, Saturdays or Sundays. Let us know about any garages, outbuildings or extensions you want included.
- We start with what you know about the building and its history.
- We let you know which flats and hatches we need to reach.
- The roofs are inspected from the ground, vantage points, the loft space and the roof where safe.
- The report records areas we couldn’t access.
- Findings and recommendations are set out with photographs.
Preparing for the visit
- Tell us about parking before the day
- Check pets are kept safely away
- Dig out any old roof reports or invoices

What a landlord roof survey looks like in Peters Village
With Starkey Castle about 1.5 miles north, Peters Village sits in an area with a long building history. If your home is one of the older ones, expect a mix of original materials and later repairs on the roof, and the council can say whether a home is in a conservation area. Many older homes in Kent have handmade clay tiles, including Kent peg tiles held by pegs through two holes, and tile-hanging on their upper walls. Kent’s older buildings take in oast houses and timber-framed Wealden hall houses as well. Knowing the covering helps explain which parts of a roof are likely to need work first.
For businesses in and around places such as Pentagon Shopping Centre, a written record of the roof’s condition helps you plan maintenance rather than react to leaks. If you let a flat or house near Snodland station, the gap between tenancies is a good time to have the roof looked at. For site and facilities teams at buildings such as Halling Primary School, long gutter runs and wide roofs on a building that size are worth checking on a regular cycle.

Different roofs, different checks
Roof spaces and lofts
On blocks, the roof space may be reached through a flat or a communal hatch, so it needs arranging.
Pitched roofs on houses and blocks
Slipped slates on older roofs can point to corroded nails. We note what we can see.
