Landlord roof surveys for homes and businesses in Tandridge
A landlord roof survey shows you the state of a roof in a report you can plan around. Landlords, letting agents, managing agents and freeholders all use it, as well as residents’ and RTM 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. We survey gutters and downpipes, rented houses and converted houses, and common reasons people get in touch are ceiling stains reported by tenants and blocked gutters over flats.
In a village or hamlet like Tandridge, older cottages and farmhouses frequently sit alongside barns, outbuildings and a few 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 often need the most attention.
Most points in the report come with a picture, because a photo of a cracked flashing says more than a paragraph. Anything out of sight on the day is listed as such.

Local roofs in Tandridge
Older houses across Surrey often have handmade clay tiles, and many have tile-hanging. A few of Surrey’s oldest buildings have heavy Horsham stone slab roofs. Each of these coverings has its own weak points, from fixings and valleys to flashings, chimneys and gutters. The wider area around Tandridge has a long history of building, with Titsey Place about 3.4 miles north-east. Older roofs in the wider area can hide decades of patch repairs, so the detail matters.
If you own a rental within reach of Godstone station, a dated record of the roof is useful when planning maintenance across a let. Take an older house close to Church of St Peter: its roof may have old fixings, lead flashings and chimneys that need a closer look.

What else we do in Tandridge
What affects the cost of landlord roof surveys
Several things affect the price of a survey:
- Building height and the viewpoints available
- Any need for thermal images or a drone flight
- The package you choose: Basic, Standard or Premium
- The roof’s overall size
Larger roofs, taller buildings and commercial roofs take longer, so they’re priced to match. You’ll know the figure before booking.
Getting in touch
A little information up front helps. It helps to include:
- The property’s address and postcode
- Access details, like a loft hatch or a shared roof
- What’s prompted the survey
- When you need the report by
Prices start from £150, including VAT. The exact figure depends on the roof and the package, and you can phone 07833 053749 or drop us an email to find out.
What we do, step by step
Once we’ve finished looking, we write up our findings in a report with photos. On timing, it usually takes about 1–2 hours for a single let house, with blocks of flats taking longer. Older rural homes like those around Tandridge can have a main roof, lower lean-to roofs and outbuildings all joined together. Each part is looked at from wherever it can safely be seen, and anything we can’t see is noted.
- We agree which roofs and which parts of the building are included.
- Access to flats and the loft space is arranged with you beforehand.
- We inspect each roof from safe vantage points, the roof space and the roof itself where safe.
- 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
- Find any records of previous roof work
- Leave a clear route to the loft
- Leave side gates unlocked
Book a survey
Buyers should book once an offer has been accepted, so you have the findings in time to act on them before you exchange. Otherwise, simply phone 07833 053749 or email us whenever suits you.

Common roof problems in Tandridge
Agents and freeholders have budgets to set. Planning is difficult without knowing the roof’s condition and how soon.
Most people get in touch after spotting one of these:
- Damp or stains in top-floor flats
- Damaged party-wall upstands or parapets
- Ponding or splits on flat roofs
- Failed flashings at walls and chimneys
Living close to Bay Pond is pleasant, but mature trees mean leaves in gutters and valleys each autumn, so outlets and downpipes are worth watching.
Questions to ask before booking
- How they’ll see the roof: from the ground, the loft, the roof or by drone
- Whether they hold professional indemnity and public liability insurance
- What the report includes, and whether it has photos
- How much experience they have with roofs like yours
Landlords, agents and block managers in Tandridge
Roof problems in a rented home affect tenants as well as the building. A survey helps you spot issues early and plan the work.
Businesses and commercial landlords can book us too, including offices, shops and units. Larger roofs take longer, so they’re priced to suit.
When you need someone else
Our findings are based on what we can see safely on the day, so some things are outside what a survey can do:
- A full building survey of every part of the property
- Confirming asbestos in older roof materials
- Who pays under the lease (that’s a legal question)
If you are not sure which survey you need, phone 07833 053749 or send us an email and we’ll give you a straight answer before you book. What our survey covers.
What this survey covers

Your questions about landlord roof surveys in Tandridge
Do you cover smaller places like Tandridge?
Yes. Tandridge is within the area we cover, which takes in towns, villages and rural addresses. We survey roofs across London and South East England. Let us know about access, parking and anything unusual about getting there when booking.
Do you survey roofs for landlords with property near Godstone station?
Yes. We survey roofs for landlords, letting agents and managing agents as well as owners. Just ring 07833 053749 or email us with the details.
I live in a flat. Can you survey the roof?
Yes, if the building owner or managing agent agrees access. We check the parts we’re given access to, and the report makes that clear.
What if it rains on the day?
It depends on the weather and the survey. In strong wind or heavy rain, a drone cannot fly and access may not be safe, so we’d move the date with you.
How long have you been surveying roofs?
We’ve been surveying roofs for over 20 years and have carried out more than 5,000 surveys across London and the South East.
Do you carry professional indemnity insurance?
Our surveys are covered by professional indemnity and public liability insurance. Ask if you need details for a managing agent or building owner.
Do I have to be there for the survey?
Not always. An outside-only look can be arranged beforehand, but anything inside needs someone there to give access.
Why act early in Tandridge
An independent report helps when owners need to agree on roof work. Without one, each party may have a different view of what’s wrong. Older and listed buildings around Tandridge may need consent and matching materials for repairs, so leaving a defect until it’s urgent leaves less time to plan.
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. Landlord roof survey starts from £150, including VAT.
