How the survey works
The visit has one job: to see as much of the let or shared roof as can be seen safely and record it clearly. Notes and photos go into the written report. It normally takes about 1–2 hours at a typical home, though large, tall or awkward roofs take more time. For a survey in Pinewood Village, we agree the time, the access and parking before the day. Visits can be on weekdays, Saturdays or Sundays. Tell us about any garages, outbuildings or extensions you want included.
- We agree the roofs to be surveyed and what you need the report for.
- You arrange access to the loft and any flats we need.
- We inspect each roof as far as it can be seen safely.
- We photograph defects and note how urgent they look.
- A written condition report follows to help you plan.
Before the survey
- If the roof is shared, arrange access with whoever manages the building
- Find any records of previous roof work
- Note where any stains or damp appear

About our landlord roof survey in Pinewood Village
Roofs on let houses and blocks of flats are easy to forget until something leaks. Surveying the roof first helps you spot defects early so work can be planned, not rushed. You get a written report with photos to keep on file for the building. Many landlords and agents repeat it every few years to see how the roof is changing. If you’ve noticed leaks into upper flats and chimney stacks in poor repair, we can find out what’s behind it, on blocks of flats, flat roofs on blocks and gutters and downpipes alike.
Around Pinewood Village, gardens, hedges and nearby trees can mean leaves and moss end up on roofs and in gutters. Blocked gutters overflow and soak the walls below, and moss holds water against tiles. A report spots that kind of slow problem before it becomes damp inside. Moss on the roof and weeds in the gutter are both easy to spot from ground level.
We keep jargon out of it: where something needs attention, it says so plainly.

Rented homes, blocks and businesses
Letting agents can arrange access with tenants. We survey on any day of the week, which can make access easier.
Shared roofs need a little more planning: access has to be agreed with whoever owns or manages the building. Let us know about it when you book and we will plan the visit with that in mind.

Pinewood Village homes and their roofs
A number of Hampshire villages keep thatched roofs on their older buildings. Across the South East, older homes tend to have slate or clay tiles, and many later ones concrete tiles. Knowing the covering helps explain which parts of a roof are likely to need work first. An older home may be listed, or stand in a conservation area. Historic England’s list shows listed buildings, and the council can say whether a street is in a conservation area. Re-roofing in different materials may need permission there.
If you own one of the older houses in the streets near St Mark's Sacred Church, old fixings, lead flashings and tall chimneys are typical of older roofs. Landlords with a home close to Bentley (Hampshire) station may find that the gap between tenancies is a good time to have the roof looked at.

Useful tips for Pinewood Village property owners
From years of surveys, a few habits stand out:
- Keep the loft hatch clear and reachable
- Give tenants a simple way to report leaks
- Check your lease or ask a solicitor about who pays
- Put urgent roof work at the top of the list
The report can feed straight into a maintenance plan. Urgent items can be dealt with first and plan the rest over time.
Act on urgent items in the report first and schedule the others. Left alone, minor faults usually get worse.
Common roof problems in Pinewood Village
Reports of leaks or damp from tenants often lead to a survey. We check whether the roof or rainwater system is the likely cause from what’s visible.
People normally book a survey when they’ve noticed one of these:
- Splits and blisters in flat roof coverings
- Gutters overflowing onto walls
- Cracked or lifting flashings
- Mortar falling from ridges and verges
For site and facilities teams at buildings like Bordon Junior School, long gutter runs and wide roofs on a building that size are worth checking on a regular cycle.

- Whether the roof space is looked at, where there is one

Pinewood Village questions
Does a conservation area affect roof work in Pinewood Village?
You can check whether a building is listed on Historic England’s list, and your council can tell you if it is in a conservation area. Listed building consent is needed for changes that affect a listed building’s special interest, and conservation areas can limit changes of roofing material.
Is Pinewood Village within the area you cover?
We do. Villages and rural addresses get the same survey as a town house, with the route planned beforehand.
Is a landlord roof survey the same as a full building survey?
No. Our survey covers the roof, not the whole building. It’s not a RICS Level 2 or 3 survey or a structural engineer’s report.
Can you survey at the weekend?
Surveys run on weekdays, Saturdays and Sundays. To find a day that suits you, phone 07833 053749 or email us.
What’s the best way to book?
To book, call 07833 053749 or send us an email with the address, the type of property and what’s prompted the survey. We will confirm the price and find a day that suits.
How long does a landlord roof survey take?
A visit usually takes about 1–2 hours for a house, and about three to four hours for a commercial roof. You’ll know roughly how long when we arrange it.
Can you survey a shared roof on a terrace or converted house?
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.
