Prices for landlord roof surveys in Tinsley Green

What a survey costs depends on the time and equipment it needs. The main factors are:

  • Whether you choose the Basic, Standard or Premium Survey
  • Features like valleys, chimneys, dormers and parapets
  • House, block, shop or office
  • If the survey needs thermal imaging or a drone

The Premium Survey includes thermal imaging and drone inspection where applicable, which starts from £400, with VAT included. We can help you choose the package that fits what you want to find out.

Landlord roof survey in Tinsley Green

Roofs on let houses and blocks of flats are easy to forget until something leaks. A condition survey lets you find problems before they become leaks so work can be planned, not rushed. The findings come in a written report with photos that you can keep with the building’s records. Many landlords and agents repeat it every few years to keep maintenance plans current. We survey rented houses, gutters and downpipes and shared roofs, and the problems we are asked to look at most are chimney stacks in poor repair and standing water on a flat roof.

Older buildings in small places like Tinsley Green may be 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. Knowing the roof’s condition helps you plan ahead with that in mind. Where a building is listed, matching the existing roof materials is often expected.

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, for example when you want to check whether anything has changed.

Landlords, agents and block managers in Tinsley Green

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

Freeholders and residents’ companies use a roof report to plan and budget, with the most urgent items set out first.

Before and after the survey

Here are a few things we’d tell any owner, before and after a survey:

  • Put urgent roof work at the top of the list
  • Ask residents to report damp right away
  • Give residents notice before a survey
  • File each roof report for future reference

Questions about the findings are welcome. The Standard Survey includes a follow-up consultation, and Premium includes an in-person consultation.

Ask tenants and residents to report damp, stains or drips promptly. Early reports let you act before damage spreads.

What we do, step by step

We’ll ask a few questions first, like when any problem began and what work has been done before. Then the inspection itself takes between one and two hours for a house, and longer for a block or a building with several roofs. In a hamlet or village like Tinsley Green, a postcode doesn’t always lead to the right gate, so a few directions are welcome. The visit itself is the same as anywhere else.

  1. You tell us about the building, its roofs and any known leaks.
  2. We confirm the access we will need.
  3. The roofs are inspected from ground level, vantage points, the loft space and the roof where safe.
  4. We note what couldn’t be seen as well as what could.
  5. You receive photos and recommendations, prioritised where relevant.

How to prepare

  • Let us know where we can park nearby
  • If the roof is shared, arrange access with whoever manages the building
  • Have any questions written down, so nothing gets missed

How to book

Tinsley Green questions

Do you cover smaller places like Tinsley Green?

Yes, Tinsley Green is on our map. A small place gets exactly the same survey as a big one.

Can a landlord with a rental near Gatwick Airport 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 drop us an email with the address and what you need.

Will you fly a drone over my roof?

Where it helps and it is safe, yes. Whether we can fly on the day depends on the weather and the airspace rules, and we check for restrictions near airports before flying. We hold a CAA Flyer ID and Operator ID.

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.

Does this replace a RICS home survey?

No. Our survey is a roof survey, not a RICS Level 2 or Level 3 survey of the whole building. It focuses on the roof and can sit alongside a RICS survey.

Can you tell me if my roof has asbestos?

No. We don’t sample or test for asbestos. Where a material might contain it, such as old cement sheets on a building from before 2000, the report flags it.

Do you climb onto every roof?

Not always. Safety comes first, and fragile or steep roofs cannot always be walked on. We use safe viewpoints, the loft space and a drone where applicable, and the report records anything we couldn’t see.

Tinsley Green homes and their roofs

England has around 10,000 conservation areas and about 500,000 listed buildings. 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 the council is the place to ask. Handmade clay tiles and tile-hung upper walls are typical of older Sussex houses. Some old buildings in Sussex have Horsham stone slab roofs. On roofs like these, good slates or tiles can outlast the nails, battens, lead and mortar around them.

For businesses in and around places like County Mall, a roof report helps plan work around trading rather than after a leak. If your house is among the older ones in the streets near St Michael and All Angels Church, old fixings, lead flashings and tall chimneys are typical of older roofs. Living close to Worth Park Gardens is pleasant, but mature trees mean leaves in gutters and valleys each autumn, so outlets and downpipes are worth watching.

DIY checks: what’s safe

Keep a simple record: when leaks happen, ground-level photos and any past roof work. Send it with your enquiry.

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

Why it’s worth a survey now in Tinsley Green

A dated condition report is useful for the building’s records. Repeat surveys let you see how the roof is changing, which suits a rolling maintenance plan. Outbuildings and barns around Tinsley Green are easy to forget, but a failed roof there can spoil what’s stored inside. It is worth including them in a survey before a winter does the damage.

A small, low roof with good viewpoints takes less time than a tall, complicated one, and the package matters as well. The price is always agreed first.
