About our landlord roof survey in Send
A roof condition report helps you plan maintenance and set budgets. You can see what’s urgent and what can wait, as far as can be judged from what’s visible. It does not include repair cost estimates, but it gives contractors a clear brief to price from. Urgent defects are flagged clearly, so you can act on them first and plan the rest over the coming years. We survey gutters and downpipes, shared roofs and rented houses, and people most often book us about missing or loose roof coverings and ponding or splits on flat roofs.
In a smaller place like Send, 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. Checking those edges shows whether anything has begun to work loose. A loose ridge tile or slate gives the wind something to catch, and others soon follow.
We write the report in plain English, so it makes sense without any roofing background. Each point is backed by a photograph where possible, and recommendations are put in order of urgency where relevant.

Landlord roof surveys around Send
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. Each of these coverings has its own weak points, from fixings and valleys to flashings, chimneys and gutters. About 2.9 miles south lies Clandon Park, a reminder of how long the area around Send has been built on. On older houses around here, roofs often carry the marks of earlier repairs, from replaced slates to new lead, and a listed home or one in a conservation area may need consent for changes of material.
Take an older house close to St William of York: its roof may have old fixings, lead flashings and chimneys that need a closer look. If you run a business near The Peacocks, a dated report on the roof is useful for planning and for any lease discussions.

What this survey can’t tell you

- Who pays under the lease (that’s a legal question)
- Confirming asbestos in older roof materials
- The structure in the way a structural engineer would assess it

Why act early in Send
Relying on what tenants report means relying on what they can see. By the time a stain appears, water may have been getting in for a while. We check the roof, not just the symptoms. Arranging work in a smaller place like Send is easier with notice than in an emergency. A survey gives you that notice.
A small, low roof with good viewpoints takes less time than a tall, complicated one, and the package matters as well. We’ll give you the figure before anything is booked.
Why book with us
- 98% customer satisfaction
- Weekday and weekend surveys

Send questions
Do you survey roofs for landlords with property near Clandon station?
Yes, rented property is part of what we cover. Just ring 07833 053749 or use the contact form and let us know about the building.
Will you come out to Send?
Yes. Send is within the area we cover, which takes in towns, villages and rural addresses. We work right across London and the South East. Just mention lanes, gates or anything else about the route when you book.
How much does a landlord roof survey cost in Send?
Landlord roof survey starts from £150, including VAT. Our three packages are Basic from £150, Standard from £250 and Premium from £400, including VAT.
Do you carry professional indemnity insurance?
Professional indemnity and public liability insurance cover our surveys. If you need details for a managing agent or a building owner, just ask.
What if it rains on the day?
A survey can normally go ahead in light rain. Heavy rain or strong wind can ground a drone and make the roof unsafe, so we’ll agree a new date if the weather is not suitable.
Do you survey roofs on blocks of flats?
Yes. Shared roofs just need a little more planning, with the freeholder or managing agent. Mention it when you get in touch and we’ll explain what’s needed.
Is this an asbestos survey?
No. We don’t carry out asbestos surveys or testing. We flag materials that could contain asbestos, such as cement sheets or soffits on pre-2000 buildings, and recommend a specialist asbestos surveyor checks them before they’re disturbed.
How it works
When we arrive, we start by asking what you’ve noticed and what you’d like to know. We then inspect everything that can safely be seen. The survey normally takes between one and two hours for most houses, rising to roughly 3–4 hours on a commercial building. With a bit of garden around a house, as there frequently is around Send, the roof can be viewed from several angles. Mention any side of the property we can’t get to. Inside, the loft is checked where it can be reached safely.
- We agree which roofs and which parts of the building are included.
- Access to flats and the loft space is arranged with you ahead of time.
- We inspect each roof from safe vantage points, the loft space and the roof itself where safe.
- We photograph each defect and note how urgent it looks.
- We send a written report you can use to plan maintenance and budgets.
Getting ready for the survey
- Jot down any questions you want answered
- For a flat or shared roof, check access with the freeholder or managing agent
- Clear the way to the loft hatch

Roof by roof
Shared chimney stacks
Shared stacks need everyone involved to agree work and the report helps with that.
Flat roofs on blocks and rear additions
Flat roofs are common over blocks, extensions and garages. We look for ponding, splits, blisters and tired upstands where we can see them safely.
