Prices for landlord roof surveys in Sherfield on Loddon

- Whether you choose the Basic, Standard or Premium Survey
- How tall the building is and how easy the roof is to see
- The roof’s overall size
- The shape of the roof and its details
The cost of a survey depends on the roof: how big it is, how high it is, the number of separate roofs and how it can be reached and seen safely. Prices start from £150, including VAT.

Landlord roof surveys for homes and businesses in Sherfield on Loddon
Our landlord roof survey gives you a clear picture of a roof’s condition in a report you can plan around. We work for landlords, letting agents, managing agents and freeholders along with RTM and residents’ management companies. You get a written report with photos and recommendations set out by urgency where relevant. The survey covers the roof, not the whole building. If you are worried about cracked or leaning shared chimneys and missing or loose roof coverings, a survey will tell you what’s going on, whatever the roof.
Village roofs often face open fields and take the full force of wind and rain, which is hard on ridges, chimneys, flashings and gutters. Older walls take a long time to dry once water gets in. A written report sets out what to deal with and in what order. Lead flashings and old chimney stacks are often where weather gets in first.
The report is written in plain words, so it makes sense without any roofing background. Each point is backed by a photo where possible.

Why act early in Sherfield on Loddon
Finding a roof defect early typically means a smaller, planned job. Left until it leaks, a roof can damage ceilings and tenants’ belongings and force rushed work. Older and listed buildings around Sherfield on Loddon may need consent and matching materials for repairs, so leaving a defect until it’s urgent leaves less time to plan.
Prices start from £150, with VAT included, for a Basic Survey. The Standard Survey starts from £250 and the Premium Survey from £400. We confirm the price for your survey before booking.

How the survey works
There isn’t much for you to do on the day. Show us any stains, drips or problem areas you know about, and we will take it from there. The survey itself takes an hour or two on an ordinary house; commercial roofs usually need 3–4 hours. Somewhere as small as Sherfield on Loddon, access is frequently the only tricky part. Mention any outbuildings, barns or garages you want included, and anything about the roof you already know. Weekday and weekend visits are available.
- 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 ground level, vantage points, the roof space and the roof where safe.
- The report records areas we couldn’t access.
- Findings and recommendations are set out with photos.
Getting ready for the survey
- Have any questions written down, so nothing gets missed
- Gather any invoices or paperwork from past roof work
- Unlock side gates and any roof access doors

Questions from Sherfield on Loddon
Does a conservation area affect roof work in Sherfield on Loddon?
Start with Historic England’s list for listing and your council for conservation areas. Either can affect what roof work is allowed, so it is worth checking before planning any.
Do you survey roofs for landlords with property near Bramley (Hants) station?
Yes, rented property is part of what we cover. You can call 07833 053749 or email us with the address and some details.
What if it rains on the day?
A survey can normally go ahead in light rain, and it can even help show where water is getting in. Heavy rain or strong wind can ground a drone and make the roof unsafe, so we will agree a new date if the weather isn’t suitable.
Is the report suitable for a maintenance plan?
Yes, that’s one of the main reasons clients book. A repeat survey later shows how the roof has changed, which suits a rolling plan.
How much is a survey?
Landlord roof survey starts from £150, including VAT. What you pay for your roof depends on its size, height, access and the package.
Do I need to be at home?
It depends on what we need to see. Inside the building and in the loft, we need someone to let us in, while outside access can be discussed when booking.
Can you tell me if my roof has asbestos?
No. We don’t carry out asbestos surveys or testing. We flag materials that could contain asbestos, like cement sheets or soffits on pre-2000 buildings, and recommend a specialist asbestos surveyor checks them before they’re disturbed.
What we’re asked to look at in Sherfield on Loddon
Older buildings across London and South East England have roofs that are decades old. Nails, battens, flashings and underlay frequently fail before good slates or tiles, and a survey helps show where that’s happening.
These are some of the problems a survey can pick up:
- Damp or stains in top-floor flats
- Cracked or leaning shared chimneys
- Missing or loose roof coverings
- Damaged party-wall upstands or parapets
If you own a rental within reach of Bramley (Hants) station, knowing the condition of the roof, chimneys and gutters helps you plan work rather than react to complaints.
Choosing a roof surveyor
- What experience they bring
- What insurance they carry
- What happens after the report arrives
- Whether any drone flown is registered with the CAA
Landlord roof surveys in Sherfield on Loddon: local notes
Historic houses like Stratfield Saye House, about 2.6 miles north-east, show how far back building in the area around Sherfield on Loddon goes. Older roofs in the wider area can hide decades of patch repairs, so the detail matters. Thatch survives on some older buildings in Hampshire’s villages. Older houses in the South East often have slate or clay tile roofs, while many later estates have concrete tiles. Knowing the covering helps explain which parts of a roof are likely to need work first.
Take a building like Sherfield School: its roofs, gutters and any chimneys need the same checks as a house’s, just on a bigger scale. If your home is one of the older ones in the streets near Church of St. Leonard, corroded nails, tired lead and weathered chimney pointing are the things to watch on older roofs.
