Uxbridge homes and their roofs
A number of Buckinghamshire villages keep thatched roofs on their older buildings. In this part of the South East, older roofs are mostly slate or clay tile and many newer ones concrete tile. Whichever you have, the details that tend to fail before the covering itself get the closest look. The wider area around Uxbridge has a long history of building, with Ickenham Hall about 2.2 miles north-east. Older homes in the wider area frequently have features worth a closer look, such as lead valleys, tall stacks and roofs that have been patched over the years, and a listed home or one in a conservation area may need consent for changes of material.
For an older house near a landmark like Church of St Andrew, its chimney, valleys and lead work are likely to be the parts that need attention first. Shop and office owners around The Chimes may find that a dated report on the roof is useful for planning and for any lease discussions. For site and facilities teams at buildings like Whitehall Junior School, a written record of a large roof helps plan work for the holidays rather than in term time.
Uxbridge is about 3 miles north-west of Hayes, in Buckinghamshire. Houses, flats, blocks and commercial buildings in Uxbridge can all book landlord roof surveys, with a written report and photographs every time. Our Buckinghamshire coverage includes Uxbridge. We also survey roofs in London.

Landlord roof survey in Uxbridge
Landlords frequently book us when buying a property to rent out, others when a tenant reports a leak or damp. Others want a regular survey for a rolling maintenance plan. The report is laid out the same way whatever the reason, with photos and recommendations. Surveys are carried out seven days a week which can help when arranging access with residents. We’re frequently asked to look into blocked gutters over flats and ceiling stains reported by tenants, across gutters and downpipes, rented houses and flat roofs on blocks.
Trees around homes in smaller places like Uxbridge drop leaves, twigs and moss onto roofs and into gutters. Once gutters and outlets block, water spills over and soaks the walls, and moss holds water against tiles. It is the kind of slow problem a roof report picks up early. Moss on the roof and weeds in the gutter are both easy to spot from the ground.
With the Standard Survey, you also get moisture detection, a structural check and a follow-up consultation. The Premium Survey goes further, with thermal imaging, drone inspection where it applies, structural analysis and an in-person consultation.

Uxbridge questions
Do you cover smaller places like Uxbridge?
Yes, Uxbridge is on our map. A small place gets exactly the same survey as a big one, with the route planned beforehand.
Do you survey roofs for landlords with property near West Drayton station?
Yes, landlords and agents are among the people we work for. You can phone 07833 053749 or email us with the address and what you need.
Do you climb onto every roof?
Only where it’s safe to do so. We look at everything that can be seen safely: from the ground, from windows and vantage points, from the loft space, from the roof itself where safe and by drone where applicable. Anything we cannot see is noted in the report.
How do I arrange a landlord roof survey in Uxbridge?
To arrange a survey, phone 07833 053749 or email us with the address, the type of property and what’s prompted the survey. We’ll confirm the price and find a day that suits.
Does the weather affect the survey?
A survey can typically go ahead in light rain, and it can even help show where water is getting in. Heavy rain or strong wind can ground a drone and make the roof unsafe, so if conditions are not right we’ll arrange another day with you.
How long will you be at the property?
It usually takes about 1–2 hours for a house, and longer for a block or a building with several roofs. You’ll then get the report by email.
How experienced are you?
We have been surveying roofs for over 20 years and have completed over 5,000 surveys.
Can I check my roof myself?
During heavy rain, look at the gutters from ground level or a window. Overflowing water can point to a blockage or a sagging run.
Look up at the roof after a storm, from the ground: broken slates or tiles in the garden, gaps along the ridge or loose lead are signs to note. Don’t go up yourself.
Rented homes, blocks and businesses
If you own several properties, you can book surveys for several addresses. To arrange surveys for several addresses, ring 07833 053749 or drop us an email.
A roof problem in a let property affects your tenants as well as the building. A survey shows what needs attention, so you can plan the work around your tenants.
Roof by roof
Gutters and downpipes
Water from failed gutters frequently shows as damp inside. We record what we see.
Party-wall upstands and parapets
We inspect the parts of a shared roof we can access and note what couldn’t be seen.
What affects the cost of landlord roof surveys
When we price a survey, we consider:
- Any need for thermal images or a drone flight
- Height and safe access
- How many separate roofs there are, like extensions, dormers and garages
- Basic, Standard or Premium
For a price for your roof in Uxbridge, phone 07833 053749 or use the contact form with the address and a few details. We’ll confirm the figure before booking.
Helping us price your survey
You don’t need to know any roofing terms. It is enough to tell us:
- The type of building and roof, such as pitched or flat
- When you need the report by
- Where the property is, with the postcode
- Why you want a survey: buying, a leak, a storm or new work
When you’re ready to go ahead, ring 07833 053749 or email us. From there it is a case of choosing a package, agreeing the price and fixing a day.

Why get it checked now?
Quotes from contractors set out the work they want to carry out. A survey gives you an independent view of the roof before you commission work, so you can compare quotes on the same basis. On a bungalow or cottage around Uxbridge, the roof sits close to the rooms below, so a small leak can mark a ceiling within a few storms. Catching the cause first saves redecorating as well.
Every price we give includes VAT. Prices start from £150, including VAT. We confirm the price for your survey before booking.

How the survey works
A survey visit follows a simple order: we listen to what’s been worrying you, inspect the roof from every safe viewpoint, photograph what we find and record our findings for the written report. Most visits take an hour or two for most houses, and about three to four hours for a commercial roof. For a survey in Uxbridge, we agree the time, the access and parking before the day. Visits can be on weekdays, Saturdays or Sundays. If there are outbuildings or garages you want looked at, mention them.
- First, we confirm the scope and the purpose of the report.
- You arrange access to the loft and any flats we need.
- Each roof is checked from safe vantage points and inside where possible.
