Shepperton Green homes and their roofs
Handmade clay tiles and tile-hung walls are typical of Surrey’s older houses. 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. About 3.6 miles south-west lies Botleys Mansion, a reminder of how long the area around Shepperton Green has been built on. Period homes nearby can have lead valleys, tall chimneys and a patchwork of past repairs, 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 Saxon Primary School, large buildings have long gutter runs and big roofs that need checking like any other. Take an older house close to Church of St Mary Magdalene: the nails, lead and mortar on the roof may be wearing out even where the slates or tiles look fine.

About our landlord roof survey in Shepperton Green
With a shared roof, it’s not always clear what’s wrong or where. We check the roof from each safe vantage point, including from the loft space and the flats where access is arranged. Each part of the roof is recorded with photos, so everyone works from the same facts. Where neighbours share the roof, we can only inspect what we’re given access to. Common reasons to book are damaged party-wall upstands or parapets and ceiling stains reported by tenants, across rented houses, flat roofs on blocks and gutters and downpipes.
Around Shepperton Green, older cottages sit alongside bungalows and newer houses. Older roofs can have slate, clay tiles or other traditional coverings, while many later ones have concrete tiles. On older homes, chimney stacks, valleys and gutters are typically where the work is. The fixings under an older roof often fail before good slates or tiles do.
If any part of the let or shared roof couldn’t be seen safely, we say so in the report. You will know exactly what was inspected and what wasn’t.

Why get it checked now?
Finding a roof defect early typically means a smaller, planned job. Left until it leaks, a roof can damage ceilings and tenants’ belongings, plus urgent call-outs. Around Shepperton Green, a leak in an older house can soak into timbers and plaster, which is far harder to put right than the roof fault itself.
One thing that affects the price is the package: Basic from £150, Standard from £250 or Premium from £400, all with VAT included. Size, height and access can affect the price too.

What a landlord roof survey doesn’t cover
No survey can tell you everything, and we’d rather be clear about that before you book. Bear these in mind:
- Responsibility under a lease
- A full structural assessment of the building
- The rest of the building, as a RICS Level 2 or 3 survey would
If you are not sure which survey you need, phone 07833 053749 or drop us an email and we’ll give you a straight answer. The full list of what we check.

Do you need a landlord roof survey in Shepperton Green?
A tenant reporting damp or a stained ceiling is a common reason to book. The survey helps show whether the roof, gutters or flashings are involved from what’s visible.
It’s worth booking a survey if you’ve seen:
- Parapets and upstands in poor repair
- Failed flashings at walls and chimneys
- Loose ridge or hip tiles
- Ceiling stains reported by tenants
Trees in and around Penton Park shed leaves that can end up in nearby gutters, so outlets and downpipes are worth watching.
Choosing a roof surveyor
- What the report includes, and whether it has photos
- How they’ll see the roof: from the ground, the loft, the roof or by drone
- What they won’t be able to tell you
- If they fly a drone, whether they hold a CAA Flyer ID and Operator ID
How the survey changes by roof type
Flat roofs on blocks and rear additions
Flat roof outlets often clog, and standing water follows. They’re checked during the survey.
Shared chimney stacks
A leaning or cracked stack on a shared building affects more than one owner and the report helps with that.
Common questions in Shepperton Green
Is my home in Shepperton Green listed or in a conservation area?
Historic England’s list shows listed buildings, and the local council can tell you about conservation areas. If a home is listed, changes that affect its special interest need listed building consent, and in a conservation area re-roofing in different materials may need permission.
Do you cover smaller places like Shepperton Green?
Yes. Shepperton Green 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 booking.
Will you say whether the freeholder or leaseholders should pay?
No. The lease normally decides who is responsible, and that is a legal question. What we provide is a clear record of the roof’s condition that everyone can refer to.
Are you insured?
We’re covered by professional indemnity and public liability insurance, for every survey we carry out.
How do I book a survey in Shepperton Green?
Simply ring 07833 053749 or send us an email with the address. We will ask a few questions, confirm the price and agree a date.
Is this an asbestos survey?
No. We don’t sample or test for asbestos. Where a material might contain it, like old cement sheets on a building from before 2000, the report flags it.
Do you use drones?
Where it helps and the rules allow, yes. We hold a CAA Flyer ID and Operator ID and fly a drone under 250g, and every flight depends on the airspace and the weather.

The survey, step by step
Time on site depends on the size and shape of the roof; as a rough guide, the survey takes between one and two hours at a typical home; commercial roofs usually need 3–4 hours. If you have questions on the day, just ask. Some parts of a survey depend on the weather, so a visit to Shepperton Green is booked with the forecast in mind: the parts that need calm, dry weather are planned around it.
- We start with what you know about the building and its history.
- We confirm the access we’ll need.
- We check coverings, flashings, gutters and chimneys where they can be seen.
- We note what couldn’t be seen as well as what could.
- You receive photos and recommendations, prioritised where relevant.
Preparing for the visit
- Move anything stored under the loft hatch
- For a flat or shared roof, check access with whoever owns or manages the building
- Find any records of previous roof work
Booking a survey
Photos help, if you have them. Pictures from ground level or a window are fine. To send them or to book, phone 07833 053749 or send us an email.
Advice
DIY checks: what’s safe
Keep a simple record: dates of leaks, photos from ground level and any work done on the roof. Share it with us as you book, as it helps us focus the survey.
The one thing to avoid is getting up close. Slates, tiles, flat roofs and rooflights can give way, and falls from height are serious. That part is for a survey, using safe viewpoints and a drone where applicable.
