Landlord roof survey in Turnham Green
Managing agents and freeholders use our reports to plan maintenance and budgets. You can see what’s urgent and what can wait, as far as can be judged from what’s visible. It doesn’t give repair costs, but it gives contractors a clear brief to price from. Urgent defects are flagged clearly, so you can act on them first and plan the rest over the coming years. Common reasons to book are chimney stacks in poor repair and leaking joints at party walls, on shared roofs, flat roofs on blocks and gutters and downpipes.
London has Victorian and Edwardian terraces in almost every borough, many with Welsh slate roofs, shared chimney stacks and parapet or valley gutters. Good slates can last over a hundred years, yet the nails frequently give out first and let slates slip. In Turnham Green, as across London, that’s why a roof needs a careful look rather than a glance from the street. Lead flashings and shared chimney stacks on these houses need a close look too.
The report is written in plain words, so it makes sense without any roofing background. Each point is backed by a photograph where possible.

Landlord roof surveys around Turnham Green
In outer London, interwar semis with hipped, tiled roofs sit alongside older slate-roofed terraces. If your home in Turnham Green is one of them, bay roofs, hips and later dormers each have their own details. Whichever you have, the details that tend to fail before the covering itself get the closest look. With Hogarth's House about 0.2 miles west, Turnham Green sits in an area with a long building history. On older houses around here, roofs often carry the marks of earlier repairs, from replaced slates to new lead, and the council can say whether a home is in a conservation area.
Shop and office owners around Livat Hammersmith may find that knowing the roof’s condition lets you budget for work rather than pay for emergencies. Anyone responsible for a site like The William Hogarth Primary School will know that long gutter runs and wide roofs on a building that size are worth checking on a regular cycle.

FAQs for Turnham Green
Can a landlord with a rental near Chiswick station book a roof survey?
Yes, landlords and agents are among the people we work for. Just call 07833 053749 or use the contact form with the details, and we’ll talk through which survey suits.
Is parking a problem for a survey in Turnham Green?
It depends on the street. If Turnham Green has controlled parking where you are, a visitor permit is the easiest answer, and a driveway is even better.
Will you fly a drone over my roof?
Where it’s applicable and safe, yes. We fly a sub-250g drone and we are a CAA-registered drone operator (Flyer ID and Operator ID). Drone inspection is part of the Drone Roof Survey and the Premium Survey, where applicable.
Do you need to get into the loft?
If the survey needs it and the roof space can be reached safely, yes. A clear path to the hatch helps, and if the loft can’t be reached safely, the report says so.
Do you cover Turnham Green?
Yes. We survey roofs across London and South East England, and that includes Turnham Green.
How long does the survey take?
Most surveys take about one to two hours for a house, and longer for a large or complex roof. We will confirm the timing when booking.
Does this replace a RICS home survey?
No. We are experienced roof surveyors, and our survey covers the roof rather than the whole building. For the rest of the building, a RICS home survey is a separate job.
Can I check my roof myself?
The one thing to avoid is getting up close. Slates, tiles, flat roofs and rooflights can give way. That’s where a survey comes in, using safe viewpoints and a drone where applicable.
A lot can be seen from ground level. With binoculars, look for slipped or missing slates and tiles, gaps along the ridge and leaning chimneys. Never climb onto the roof to look.
How the survey changes by roof type
Gutters and downpipes
Gutters are a common source of leaks on blocks. We check gutters, outlets and downpipes as far as can be seen safely.
Pitched roofs on houses and blocks
The edges and top of a pitched roof are exposed and get close attention.
Signs you need a landlord roof survey in Turnham Green
A single building may have pitched roofs, flat roofs and rear additions. They all age at different rates, and flat roofs over rear additions frequently need attention sooner.
Typical things we are asked to look at include:
- Choked outlets and gutters
- Damp or stains in top-floor flats
- Standing water on a flat roof
- Chimney stacks in poor repair
Trees in and around Dukes Meadows shed leaves that can end up in nearby gutters, and an overflowing gutter soon means a wet wall.
Choosing a roof surveyor
- Whether the price includes VAT
- What the survey won’t cover
- Whether the inside of the roof is included
- Whether any drone flown is registered with the CAA
What happens on the day
The aim of the visit is simple: to look at the let or shared roof as closely as is safe and record what we find. Everything we note and photograph goes into the written report. The visit typically takes about 1–2 hours for a house, though large, tall or awkward roofs take more time. For a visit in Turnham Green, parking and access are the things to plan: let us know about parking, the floor the property is on, any shared entrance and loft access. On the day, the roof is looked at from ground level, from windows, from inside the roof space and from the roof where it is safe.
- 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.
- Each roof is looked at from safe vantage points and inside where possible.
- We photograph defects and note how urgent they look.
- You get a written report to plan maintenance and budgets.
How to prepare
- Make sure the loft hatch can be reached
- Dig out any old roof reports or invoices
- Have keys ready for side gates, garages or roof access doors
