How a landlord roof survey works in Titchfield Common
The lease typically decides who is responsible for the roof and who pays. We can’t advise on what your lease says but we can give you an independent record of the roof’s condition. That can help when owners, freeholders and agents need to agree what happens next. The report sets out what we saw, with photographs and recommendations. If you are worried about missing or loose roof coverings and flashings that have come away, we can find out what’s behind it.
Around Titchfield Common, gardens, hedges and nearby trees can mean leaves and moss end up on roofs and in gutters. Blocked gutters overflow and soak the walls below, and moss holds water against tiles. It’s the kind of slow problem a roof report picks up early. Plants growing from a gutter or moss on the tiles are signs worth noting from ground level.
It isn’t only a list of defects. It explains what we found, why it matters and what we recommend, so you can plan your next steps.

Landlord and commercial surveys in Titchfield Common
If the property is let, the agent or a tenant can let us in, at a time agreed in advance. We survey on weekdays, Saturdays and Sundays, which can make access easier.
With a portfolio of properties, you can book surveys for several addresses. To arrange surveys for several addresses, ring 07833 053749 or drop us an email with the addresses.
What we are asked to look at in Titchfield Common
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.
These are some of the problems a survey can pick up:
- Failed flashings at walls and chimneys
- Ponding or splits on flat roofs
- Loose ridge or hip tiles
- Missing or loose roof coverings
If you live in an older home near St John, its roof may have old fixings, lead flashings and chimneys that need a closer look.
Choosing a roof surveyor
- Whether the price includes VAT
- Whether the loft is part of the inspection
- How long they’ve been surveying roofs
- Are they insured for the work?
What happens if roof problems are left?
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. Tradespeople may need to travel further to a smaller place like Titchfield Common, so it is useful to plan roof work rather than call someone out in a hurry. Knowing early gives you time to get the right people in.
We offer three survey packages: Basic from £150, Standard from £250 and Premium from £400, with VAT included. What your roof costs depends on its size, access and what you want to find out.

What a landlord roof survey looks like in Titchfield Common
Titchfield Common is within about 2 miles of the coast, where sea air brings more salt and stronger wind than inland. Salt is hard on nails, clips and metal flashings, and strong wind lifts anything already loose on a roof. An older home may be listed, or stand in a conservation area. Historic England’s list shows listed buildings, and the council can say whether a street is in a conservation area. In either case, a change of roofing material may need consent.
Anyone responsible for a site like St John the Baptist Church of England Primary School will know that its roofs, gutters and any chimneys need the same checks as a house’s, just on a bigger scale. If you look after a shop, office or commercial unit, for instance near Fareham Shopping Centre, a dated report on the roof is useful for planning and for any lease discussions.
Titchfield Common is about 3 miles west of Fareham, in Hampshire. We carry out landlord roof surveys in Titchfield Common for houses, flats, blocks and commercial buildings. Titchfield Common is one of the places in Hampshire where we work. Southampton is in our area too.

Prices for landlord roof surveys in Titchfield Common
Prices vary from roof to roof, and it comes down to:
- The height of the building and how the roof can be seen safely
- Commercial roofs and larger buildings
- Roof area
- The number of roofs, including extensions and garages
Simple, low roofs take less time to survey than tall or complicated ones, and the package matters as well. The price is always agreed first.
Helping us price your survey
A little information up front helps. It helps to include:
- Where water is showing inside, if it is
- The type of building and roof, like pitched or flat
- Anything about access we should know
- Why you want a survey: buying, a leak, a storm or new work
If you’re buying, it helps to book soon after your offer is accepted, so there’s time to use the report before exchange. For any other survey, just phone 07833 053749 or use the contact form when you’re ready.
How it works
You don’t need to do much on the day. Point out anything you’ve noticed, such as stains, drips or loose pieces, and we’ll get on with the inspection. The survey itself takes roughly 1–2 hours for most houses, with bigger or more complicated roofs taking longer. In a smaller place like Titchfield Common, parking is seldom the issue; lanes, gates and long drives are worth mentioning. Low roofs on bungalows can often be seen well from ground level, and the loft shows the rest.
- We agree the roofs to be surveyed and what you need the report for.
- Access to flats and the roof space is arranged by you or your agent.
- We inspect each roof as far as it can be seen safely.
- Every defect is photographed and its urgency noted where relevant.
- You get a written report to plan maintenance and budgets.
Getting ready for the survey
- Point out any leaks or damp patches
- Leave side gates unlocked
- Mention any parking restrictions on your street
Getting a price
Not sure which survey you need? The easiest way is to call 07833 053749 or drop us an email and describe the roof and what’s worrying you. We’ll talk you through the options and what they cost.
Advice
Useful tips for Titchfield Common property owners
These tips come from what we see on roofs every week, before and after a survey:
- Give residents notice before a survey
- Ask your managing agent about lease terms
- Check the roof space can be accessed
- Put urgent roof work at the top of the list
Questions about the findings are welcome. With the Standard Survey there’s a follow-up consultation and the Premium Survey an in-person one.
Get gutters and roof outlets cleared at least once a year, particularly on blocks with valleys or parapets. Blocked gutters are a common cause of leaks into top-floor flats.
Common questions in Titchfield Common
Can a landlord with a rental near Swanwick station book a roof survey?
Yes, rented property is part of what we cover. You can call 07833 053749 or email us with the address and some details.
Do you cover smaller places like Titchfield Common?
Yes, Titchfield Common is on our map. Villages and rural addresses get the same survey as a town house, with the route planned beforehand.
Do you use drones?
Yes, where it’s applicable. Flights depend on the weather on the day and airspace rules, including flight restriction zones near airports. We hold a CAA Flyer ID and Operator ID.
Is this an asbestos survey?
No. We don’t carry out asbestos surveys or testing. We flag materials that could contain asbestos, such as cement sheets or soffits on pre-2000 buildings.
Does this replace a RICS home survey?
No. We are experienced roof surveyors, and our survey covers the roof rather than the whole building. If you need a full building survey, you’ll need a RICS survey as well.
How long will you be at the property?
Most surveys take between one and two hours for a house, and longer for a block or a building with several roofs. We will confirm the timing as you book.
Which days do you carry out surveys?
We survey seven days a week: Monday to Friday, Saturdays and Sundays. Let us know which days suit you when booking.
