Stockland Green questions
Do you cover smaller places like Stockland Green?
Yes, Stockland Green is covered. Our area covers London and South East England, and smaller places are part of that. The journey is planned ahead, so it helps to know about access.
Is my home in Stockland 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.
What’s the best way to book?
To book, ring 07833 053749 or email us with the address, the type of property and what’s prompted the survey. We will confirm the price and find a day that suits.
How much time does the visit need?
A visit usually takes an hour or two at a typical home, with bigger or more complicated roofs taking longer. We’ll give you an idea as you book.
Will you need to get into tenants’ homes?
We may do. If the roof space or a flat roof is reached through a flat, we need access to it so please give residents notice.
Are you insured?
We’re covered by professional indemnity and public liability insurance, for every survey we carry out.
Can you survey a shared roof?
Yes, as long as access is agreed. Roofs over flats are frequently shared, so the freeholder or managing agent needs to agree access. We can only inspect what we’re given access to.
Landlord roof survey in Stockland Green
A roof condition report helps you plan maintenance and set budgets. It shows what needs attention now and what can be planned for later based on what can be seen. 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. Typical surveys look at worn ridges, hips and verges and choked outlets and gutters, on blocks of flats, converted houses and flat roofs on blocks.
Some older homes in villages like Stockland Green are listed or in a conservation area. That can affect what materials can be used when work is done, so check with the council before planning anything. A roof report helps you plan work with that in mind. Older materials such as clay tiles, slate and stone are often matched when work is done.
The report is written in plain words, so you don’t need to be a roofer to follow it. Each point is backed by a photograph where possible, with the urgent items made clear.

Leave it or get it looked at?
Budgets work best when they’re based on the roof’s actual condition. A survey shows what needs attention now and what can be planned for later, so spending can be spread sensibly. Matching old materials, such as handmade tiles or stone slates, can take time to source. That is one more reason to find defects before they become urgent.
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. Our price is from £150, including VAT.

Common roof problems in Stockland Green
Landlords need to plan spending on a building. Planning is difficult without knowing the roof’s condition or when.
Typical things we’re asked to look at include:
- Gutters overflowing onto walls
- Cracked or lifting flashings
- Leaking joints at party walls
- Splits and blisters in flat roof coverings
If your house is among the older ones in the streets near Church of St Mary the Virgin, its chimney, valleys and lead work are likely to be the parts that need attention first.
Questions to ask before booking
- What’s outside the scope of the survey
- Is VAT included in the price?
- When you will get the report
- Whether you can ask questions once you have the report
Different roofs, different checks
Party-wall upstands and parapets
We inspect the parts of a shared roof we can access and note what couldn’t be seen.
Roof spaces and lofts
Looking inside the roof often tells us more. We check it where there is safe access, looking for staining, damp and daylight.
What happens on the day
When we arrive, we start by asking what you’ve noticed and what you’d like to know. After that, we check everything we can see safely, from ground level, from windows, in the loft space and by drone where it applies. Most surveys take about one to two hours at a typical home, or half a day or so for a commercial building. Cottages and farmhouses around Stockland Green frequently have roofs at several levels, with lean-tos and outbuildings attached. We work round each section in turn, from the safest viewpoints.
- We start by agreeing the scope, roof by roof.
- Access to flats and the roof space is arranged with you ahead of time.
- Each roof is checked as far as it can be seen safely, including from inside where possible.
- Every defect we find is photographed and given a priority where relevant.
- The report sets out condition and recommendations to help you plan.
Before the survey
- Buyers: confirm access with the estate agent or seller
- Make a note of anything you’d like us to look at
- Note where any stains or damp appear
Arrange a survey
If you are buying, it helps to book soon after your offer is accepted, so you have the findings in time to act on them before you exchange. Otherwise, simply phone 07833 053749 or send us an email whenever suits you.

Stockland Green homes and their roofs
Penshurst Place, about 2.5 miles north-west, is one of the historic houses in the wider area around Stockland Green. If you own one of the older houses, expect a mix of original materials and later repairs on the roof, and a listed home or one in a conservation area may need consent for changes of material. Handmade clay tiles, including Kent peg tiles hung on pegs through two holes, are typical of older Kent buildings. Kent’s older buildings take in oast houses and timber-framed Wealden hall houses as well. Whichever you have, the details that tend to fail before the covering itself get the closest look.
If you look after a building such as Speldhurst Church of England Voluntary Aided Primary School, long gutter runs and wide roofs on a building that size are worth checking on a regular cycle. If you own a rental within reach of High Brooms station, a roof report helps you deal with small faults before they turn into a call from a tenant.

Checking the roof from ground level
Look up at the roof after a storm, from the ground: pieces of tile or slate on the ground, a gap in the ridge or a lifted flashing are all worth noting. Leave anything above ground level to a survey.
After heavy rain, check ceilings and the tops of walls for new stains. Photograph them and note the date, as it helps a surveyor trace the cause.

Useful tips for Stockland Green property owners
A few practical points come up again and again on our surveys. They’re worth knowing whatever the roof:
- Make sure the loft space can be accessed
- Do not wait for a leak to survey the roof
- Book gutter clearing at least once a year
- Put urgent roof work at the top of the list
The report can feed straight into a maintenance plan. You can start with the urgent items and the rest budgeted for later.
Have the roof looked at regularly, not just when it leaks. Many landlords and agents survey their roofs on a rolling basis, alongside yearly gutter clearing.
