How a landlord roof survey works in Shottermill
Some landlords book a survey when they buy a property to let, or after a tenant reports a leak. Others want a regular survey for a rolling maintenance plan. Whatever the reason, the report follows the same clear format, with photos and recommendations. We survey on weekdays and at weekends which can help when arranging access with residents. If you’ve noticed gutters overflowing onto walls and loose ridge or hip tiles, we can find out what’s behind it, whatever the roof.
Trees around homes in smaller places like Shottermill drop leaves, twigs and moss onto roofs and into gutters. Blocked gutters overflow and soak the walls below. A report spots that kind of slow problem before it becomes damp inside. Plants growing from a gutter or moss on the tiles are signs worth noting from ground level.
How fast the report arrives depends on the package: Basic within 48 hours, Standard in 24–48 hours and Premium the same day.

When you need someone else
It is useful to know what a survey won’t do before you book:
- Parts of the roof we cannot safely see or access
- Responsibility under a lease
- Structural calculations or an engineer’s report
If in doubt, call 07833 053749 or email us and we’ll suggest the right survey. What our survey covers.
What this survey covers
- Gutters and downpipes
- Blocks of flats
- Converted houses
- Shared roofs
- Rented houses
- Flat roofs on blocks
How it works
You do not need to do much on the day. Show us any stains, drips or problem areas you know about, and we’ll get on with the inspection. A typical survey takes about one to two hours for a house, and longer for a block or a building with several roofs. Parking around Shottermill is normally easier than in a town centre, but mention lanes, gates or long drives. Low roofs on bungalows can often be seen well from ground level, and the loft shows the rest.
- We agree which roofs and which parts of the building are included.
- Access to flats and the roof space is arranged with you in advance.
- 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.
- You get a written condition report to help plan maintenance.
Before the survey
- Have keys ready for side gates, garages or roof access doors
- Move anything stored under the loft hatch
- Tell us about parking before the day
Getting a price
Most bookings start with a short call: phone 07833 053749 or drop us an email. You will have a price before anything is arranged.

What a landlord roof survey looks like in Shottermill
There are about 500,000 buildings on England’s list of listed buildings, and around 10,000 conservation areas. If your 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, so check with the council. Older houses across Surrey frequently have handmade clay tiles, and many have tile-hanging. A few of Surrey’s oldest buildings have heavy Horsham stone slab roofs. On roofs like these, good slates or tiles can outlast the nails, battens, lead and mortar around them.
Take a building like Camelsdale Primary School: long gutter runs and wide roofs on a building that size are worth checking on a regular cycle. Landlords with a home close to Haslemere station may find that a roof report between tenancies helps plan work before a small defect becomes a tenant’s leak.

How we price landlord roof surveys
Every roof is different, so prices are confirmed before you book. This is what makes a difference:
- Whether you choose the Basic, Standard or Premium Survey
- How big the roof is
- Height and safe access
- Features like valleys, chimneys, dormers and parapets
Larger roofs, taller buildings and commercial roofs take longer, so they’re priced to match. The price is confirmed before booking.
What we need to know
To price your survey accurately, we’ll ask about:
- The reason for the survey, such as buying, a leak or storm damage
- The property’s address and postcode
- Dates you’re working to, such as exchange
- Any stains, drips or damp patches you’ve seen indoors
When you’re ready to go ahead, ring 07833 053749 or send us an email. From there it is a case of choosing a package, agreeing the price and fixing a day.
Common roof problems in Shottermill
Reports of leaks or damp from tenants often lead to a survey. The survey helps show whether the roof, gutters or flashings are involved, as far as can be seen.
Problems we come across often include:
- Ceiling stains reported by tenants
- Loose ridge or hip tiles
- Slipped or missing slates and tiles
- Splits and blisters in flat roof coverings
For an older house near a landmark such as St. Stephen's Church, old fixings, lead flashings and tall chimneys are typical of older roofs.
