Independent landlord roof surveys in Studley Green

Landlord roof survey in Studley Green: what you get

Shared roofs on blocks, converted houses and terraces raise their own questions. We inspect the roof as far as it can be seen safely, including from the roof 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 are given access to. We survey rented houses, flat roofs on blocks and converted houses, and the problems we are asked to look at most are parapets and upstands in poor repair and missing or loose roof coverings.

Somewhere as small as Studley Green, homes are frequently older cottages and farmhouses, with outbuildings and some newer houses. Older roofs may be clay tile, slate, stone or thatch, frequently with chimneys that have stood a long time. Each needs checking in its own way, and thatch is a specialist material we report on as far as it can be seen. Chimneys and lead flashings on old roofs frequently need the most attention.

Pictures do a lot of the work in our reports, because a photo of a cracked flashing says more than a paragraph. Anything out of sight on the day is listed as such.

Landlord and commercial surveys in Studley Green

Shared roofs need a little more planning: access has to be agreed with whoever owns or manages the building. Mention it when you get in touch and we’ll plan the survey around it.

Buyers’ agents can book surveys on behalf of their clients. The report is emailed, so it can go straight to your client, photos included.

The survey, step by step

We photograph the roof as we go, so you can see in the report what we found and where. We take close-ups from wherever is safe. Most surveys take an hour or two for a house, rising to roughly 3–4 hours on a commercial building. Older roofs in small places like Studley Green can have low, tight loft spaces, so tell us about the loft hatch and any ladder. We only go where it’s safe.

  1. We agree the roofs to be surveyed and what you need the report for.
  2. You arrange access to the loft and any flats we need.
  3. Each roof is checked from safe vantage points and inside where possible.
  4. Every defect is photographed and its urgency noted where relevant.
  5. You get a written report to plan maintenance and budgets.

Before we arrive

  • Tell us where we can park nearby
  • Keep pets in another room
  • Unlock side gates and any roof access doors

Related advice

Checking the roof from ground level

The one thing to avoid is getting up close. Slates, tiles, flat roofs and rooflights can give way, and a fall can be serious. That part is for a survey.

After heavy rain, check ceilings and the tops of walls for new stains. Take a photo and write down when you saw it.

How we price landlord roof surveys

The price reflects the time and kit the roof needs. That comes down to:

  • The height of the building and how the roof can be seen safely
  • The package you choose: Basic, Standard or Premium
  • Extra roofs, like extensions, dormers or garages
  • Commercial roofs and larger buildings

Prices start from £150, including VAT. The final price depends on the size and height of the roof, access and which survey you book.

What we need to know

The more you let us know, the easier it is to price the survey. When you contact us, tell us:

  • Why you want a survey: buying, a leak, a storm or new work
  • Dates you are working to, such as exchange
  • Any stains, drips or damp patches you’ve seen indoors
  • Access details, such as a loft hatch or a shared roof

Prices start from £150, including VAT. What you pay depends on the roof’s size, access and the package, and you can call 07833 053749 or email us to find out.

Do you need a landlord roof survey in Studley Green?

Shared roofs can fall between owners. Each party may assume someone else is dealing with it and work gets delayed. An independent report helps everyone see the facts.

A survey can pick up problems like:

  • Ponding or splits on flat roofs
  • Cracked or leaning shared chimneys
  • Gutters overflowing onto walls
  • Worn ridges, hips and verges

For landlords with property near Saunderton station, a roof report between tenancies helps plan work before a small defect becomes a tenant’s leak.

FAQs for Studley Green

Do you cover smaller places like Studley Green?

Yes. Studley Green is within the area we cover, which takes in towns, villages and rural addresses. We work right across London and South East England. Just mention lanes, gates or anything else about the route when you book.

Can a landlord with a rental near Saunderton station book a roof survey?

Yes. We survey roofs for landlords, letting agents and managing agents as well as owners. You can call 07833 053749 or email us with the address and what you need, and we’ll talk through which survey suits.

Will you check the loft?

If it is needed and safe to reach, yes. We look for staining, damp, daylight and signs of movement.

Is the report suitable for a maintenance plan?

Yes. It shows what needs attention now and what can be planned for later so you can plan spending. Repair costs aren’t included, but contractors can price from it.

I live in a flat. Can you survey the roof?

Yes, once access has been agreed. The roof of a block or converted house is often shared, so whoever owns or manages the building needs to agree access. We inspect only the parts we’re allowed to reach.

How long will you be at the property?

Time on site depends on the roof; most visits take about 1–2 hours on an ordinary house, or half a day or so for a commercial building. The report is sent afterwards by email.

Will you inspect a roof that several owners share?

Yes. We inspect the parts we are given access to, as far as they can safely be seen. Areas we couldn’t see are noted as well as what could.

Studley Green homes and their roofs

The wider area around Studley Green has a long history of building, with West Wycombe Park House about 2.2 miles east. 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. Some villages in Buckinghamshire still have thatched roofs. Slate and clay tile are the usual coverings on older South East houses, with concrete tiles on many later estates. Each of these coverings has its own weak points, from fixings and valleys to flashings, chimneys and gutters.

If you look after a building such as The Mary Towerton School At Studley Green, its roofs, gutters and any chimneys need the same checks as a house’s, just on a bigger scale.
