How a landlord roof survey works in Tudeley Hale

A landlord roof survey covers the usual parts of a roof: coverings, ridges, hips, valleys, flashings, chimneys, gutters and the loft space. Flat roofs on blocks, extensions and garages are included when they’re in the agreed scope. We also look at chimneys, parapets and party-wall upstands where it is safe to see them and the loft where access is safe. Typical surveys look at worn ridges, hips and verges and damaged party-wall upstands or parapets, on shared roofs, blocks of flats and rented houses.

Some older homes in villages like Tudeley Hale 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. 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.

Findings are set out part by part, from the main slopes down to the gutters and outlets, with a note and a photo for each point. It records what’s sound as well as what is not.

Surveys for landlords and agents in Tudeley Hale

Any of our surveys can be booked by landlords, agents and building managers in Tudeley Hale. For a price for a let property or a block, call 07833 053749 or send us an email.

Letting agents frequently book on a landlord’s behalf, and the report can go to both. Access is agreed with the tenant ahead of time.

How the survey works

A survey visit follows a simple order: we hear what you’ve seen, look at the roof from every safe viewpoint, take photos as we go and record our findings for the written report. It usually takes about one to two hours for a house, and longer for a block or a building with several roofs. In a small place like Tudeley Hale, access is usually the main thing to plan. Let us know about outbuildings, past repairs and any leaks you’ve noticed. Weekday and weekend visits are available.

  1. We start with what you know about the building and its history.
  2. We let you know which flats and hatches we need to reach.
  3. We check coverings, flashings, gutters and chimneys where they can be seen.
  4. We note what couldn’t be seen as well as what could.
  5. Findings and recommendations are set out with photographs.

Preparing for the visit

  • Have keys ready for side gates, garages or roof access doors
  • Gather any invoices or paperwork from past roof work
  • Show us where any leaks or stains appear

What we are asked to look at in Tudeley Hale

Landlords need to plan spending on a building. Without a recent survey, it is hard to know what the roof needs and how soon.

We are often asked to look at:

  • Mortar falling from ridges and verges
  • Splits and blisters in flat roof coverings
  • Damaged pots and flaunching
  • Leaks into upper flats

If you own a rental within reach of Tonbridge station, a roof report helps you deal with small faults before they turn into a call from a tenant.

What to check before booking

  • Whether VAT is added on top
  • What the report includes, and whether it has photos
  • How long they’ve been surveying roofs
  • What the survey won’t cover

Tudeley Hale: your questions answered

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

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

Does a conservation area affect roof work in Tudeley Hale?

For listing, use Historic England’s list; for conservation areas, ask the council. The answer matters most when a change of material is on the cards.

How long is the visit?

Most surveys take about one to two hours at most homes, and more on a big or complicated roof. We’ll confirm the timing when booking.

Do you survey roofs on blocks of flats?

Yes. A shared roof needs access agreed first, with the freeholder or managing agent. Let us know about it when you book and we will explain what’s needed.

Which days do you carry out surveys?

We carry out surveys on weekdays, Saturdays and Sundays. To arrange a date, call 07833 053749 or use the contact form.

Are you insured?

Our cover is professional indemnity plus public liability, and we can provide details if a managing agent needs them.

Prices start from £150, including VAT. What you pay for your roof depends on its size, height, access and the package, and it is agreed before booking.

Honest limits

We only report whatever is safely visible on the day, so there are some things a survey cannot cover:

  • The rest of the building, as a RICS Level 2 or 3 survey would
  • Legal advice on leases or service charges
  • Roof areas we weren’t given access to

Not sure which survey suits your roof? You can phone 07833 053749 or email us and we’ll tell you before booking. What a survey covers and doesn’t.

Landlord roof surveys in Tudeley Hale: local notes

Older houses across Kent often have handmade clay or peg tiles, and many have tile-hung walls. Oast houses and timber-framed Wealden hall houses are part of the county’s older buildings too. Knowing the covering helps explain which parts of a roof are likely to need work first. The wider area around Tudeley Hale has a long history of building, with Old Soar Manor about 5 miles north. Period homes nearby can have lead valleys, tall chimneys and a patchwork of past repairs, and any change of roofing material on a listed home needs checking with the council first.

If yours is one of the older homes in the streets near Church of All Saints, corroded nails, tired lead and weathered chimney pointing are the things to watch on older roofs. Anyone responsible for a site like The Schools at Somerhill will know that its roofs, gutters and any chimneys need the same checks as a house’s, just on a bigger scale.

Why act early in Tudeley Hale

Tenants can only report what shows inside. A ceiling stain often means water has been coming in for some time. We check the roof, not just the symptoms. In a small place like Tudeley Hale, homes can be exposed to wind and rain, which finds any gap, and older walls, once damp, take a long time to dry.

Prices quoted always include VAT, and the written report is part of the package. Our price is from £150, including VAT. Where your roof sits in the range depends on its size, height and access.
