What a survey costs
The price reflects the time and kit the roof needs. The main factors are:
- The number of roofs, including extensions and garages
- The package you choose: Basic, Standard or Premium
- If the survey needs thermal imaging or a drone
- The roof’s overall size
Our price is from £150, including VAT. Basic starts from £150, Standard from £250 and Premium from £400, VAT included, and we’ll tell you which fits.
What we need to know
A little information up front helps. Please include:
- Any stains, drips or damp patches you’ve seen indoors
- Whether there is a loft hatch, a shared roof or tricky access
- Pictures of the roof from a safe spot, if you have them
- Any deadline, like an exchange date

Landlord roof survey in Spring Grove: what you get
A roof condition report helps you plan maintenance and set budgets. It shows what needs attention now and what can be planned for later, as far as can be judged from what’s visible. It does not give repair costs but contractors can price from it. Anything urgent is made clear, so you can act on them first and plan the rest over the coming years. We survey gutters and downpipes, shared roofs and flat roofs on blocks, and the problems we’re asked to look at most are damp or stains in top-floor flats and gaps where tiles or slates have slipped.
Victorian and Edwardian terraces are found right across London, many with Welsh slate roofs, shared chimney stacks and parapet or valley gutters. Good slates can last over a hundred years, yet the nails frequently give out first and let slates slip. In Spring Grove, as across London, that’s why a roof needs a close look rather than a glance from the street. Lead flashings and shared chimney stacks on these houses need a proper look too.
What you get is a clear record of the let or shared roof on the day we saw it. That makes it useful now and a handy reference later, such as when you want to compare after future work.

Common questions in Spring Grove
How do I find out if my home in Spring Grove is listed?
The council and Historic England’s list are the places to check. Either can affect what roof work is allowed, so it’s worth checking before planning any.
I let a flat near Isleworth station. Can you check the roof?
Yes, letting agents and landlords book with us as well as owners. You can call 07833 053749 or drop us an email with the address and some details, including who will give access on the day.
Do you survey roofs shared between flats?
Yes, we survey shared roofs often. We can only inspect neighbouring parts from where we’re allowed to be, and the report says so.
How experienced are you?
We have more than 20 years’ experience and have completed over 5,000 surveys across London and South East England.
Does the weather affect the survey?
It can, depending on the survey. Drones cannot fly safely in strong wind or heavy rain, and thermal imaging works best with a dry roof, little wind and a sunny day beforehand. We’ll rearrange with you if the weather is not right.
How do I arrange a landlord roof survey in Spring Grove?
The quickest way is to call 07833 053749 or drop us an email. Give us the address and some details about the roof, and we’ll recommend the right survey. Surveys run on weekdays and at weekends.
How long is the visit?
Most surveys take an hour or two at most homes, with bigger or more complicated roofs taking longer. We will confirm the timing when booking.
Spring Grove homes and their roofs
With Osterley House about 0.7 miles north-west, Spring Grove sits in an area with a long building history. Older homes in the wider area often have features worth a closer look, such as lead valleys, tall stacks and roofs that have been patched over the years, and any change of roofing material on a listed home needs checking with the council first. In outer London, interwar semis with hipped, tiled roofs sit alongside older slate-roofed terraces. Bay roofs, hip ridges and dormers from later loft conversions are the details that set these houses apart. Each of these coverings has its own weak points, from fixings and valleys to flashings, chimneys and gutters.
Living close to Inwood Park is pleasant, but mature trees mean leaves in gutters and valleys each autumn, so outlets and downpipes are worth watching. If you let a flat or house near Isleworth station, knowing the condition of the roof, chimneys and gutters helps you plan work rather than react to complaints.

Other services in Spring Grove
What happens on the day
On the day, we begin with a quick chat about the roof and anything that’s worrying you. We then inspect everything that can be seen safely, using the ground, windows, the loft and a drone where applicable. The survey usually takes between one and two hours for most houses, and more on a big or complicated roof. From the street, a London terrace typically shows only its front slope or parapet, so in Spring Grove we work round the house, using the street, the windows, the loft and any safe vantage point behind it. If other people live in the building, let us know who can let us into the shared parts.
- We agree which roofs and which parts of the building are included.
- You or your agent arrange access to the roof space and any flats we need to enter.
- Each roof is checked as far as it can be seen safely, including from inside where possible.
- Defects are photographed and their urgency noted.
- You get a written condition report to help plan maintenance.
Getting ready for the survey
- Make a note of anything you’d like us to look at
- Keep pets inside or away from the areas we are looking at
- Tell us about any leaks, stains or damp patches you know of
Booking a survey
If you’re buying, it helps to book soon after your offer is accepted, so there is time to use the report before exchange. For any other survey, just ring 07833 053749 or send us an email when you’re ready.

Why it’s worth a survey now in Spring Grove
A planned maintenance budget needs real information. A survey shows what needs attention now and what can be planned for later helping you spread the work. Work on a London roof is rarely simple to arrange, with parking, neighbours and access all to think about. Knowing what’s needed early gives you time to plan it calmly, rather than in a rush after a leak.
Larger roofs, taller buildings and commercial roofs take longer, so they’re priced to match. You’ll know the figure before booking.
What you get with us
- A sub-250g drone, flown with a CAA Flyer ID and Operator ID
- Insured for professional indemnity and public liability
- 5,000+ surveys completed
- Prices that include VAT
See our cost guide and our case studies.
Before and after the survey
Most of what helps is simple and safe from the ground. Our suggestions:
- Arrange flat access in advance
- Hold on to old reports to compare later
- Check your lease or ask a solicitor about who pays
- Keep the loft hatch clear and reachable
If anything in the report needs explaining, ask us. With the Standard Survey there’s a follow-up consultation and the Premium Survey an in-person one.
Ask tenants and residents to report damp, stains or drips promptly. Early reports let you act before damage spreads.
Common roof problems in Spring Grove
Roofs on let and shared buildings often get less regular attention than owner-occupied homes. Minor faults can go unseen until a tenant reports a leak and by then more has been damaged.
It is worth booking a survey if you’ve seen:
- Damaged pots and flaunching
- Mortar falling from ridges and verges
- Missing or loose roof coverings
- Damp or stains in top-floor flats
If you live in an older home near St Mary's Church, its roof may have old fixings, lead flashings and chimneys that need a closer look.
