What a survey costs
What a survey costs depends on the time and equipment it needs. That comes down to:

- The size of the roof
- The package you choose: Basic, Standard or Premium
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.

Landlord roof survey in Westfield: what you get
A roof over tenants or leaseholders often gets attention only when water comes in. Surveying the roof first helps you spot defects early, and plan work rather than react to it. 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. Common reasons to book are splits and blisters in flat roof coverings and loose ridge or hip tiles, on flat roofs on blocks, shared roofs and gutters and downpipes.
Around Westfield, 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. Moss on the roof and weeds in the gutter are both easy to spot from the ground.
Nothing in the report is left vague: if work is needed, the report says so clearly.

What a landlord roof survey looks like in Westfield
Many older homes in Surrey have handmade clay tiles and tile-hung upper walls. Some old buildings in Surrey and Sussex have Horsham stone slab roofs. Each of these coverings has its own weak points, from fixings and valleys to flashings, chimneys and gutters. Historic houses such as Clandon Park, about 4.1 miles south-east, show how far back building in the area around Westfield goes. 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.
Shop and office owners around The Peacocks may find that a dated report on the roof is useful for planning and for any lease discussions. For an older house near a landmark such as St Mark's Church, its roof may have old fixings, lead flashings and chimneys that need a closer look.

Do you need a landlord roof survey in Westfield?
Many let properties sit under roofs that have seen decades of weather. Fixings, flashings and underlay can fail before the slates or tiles themselves, and a survey helps show where that is happening.
Typical things we are asked to look at include:
- Slipped or missing slates and tiles
- Worn ridges, hips and verges
- Choked outlets and gutters
- Failed flashings at walls and chimneys
If you own a rental within reach of Woking station, the gap between tenancies is a good time to have the roof looked at.
Before you book any roof surveyor
- Whether VAT is added on top
- What exactly goes into their report
- When you’ll get the report
- What follow-up you get after the report
What happens on the day
Photos are taken throughout the visit, so you can see in the report what we found and where. We take close-ups from wherever is safe. A typical visit takes about one to two hours at most homes, and about three to four hours for a commercial roof. For a survey in Westfield, 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 roofs and areas to be surveyed.
- We confirm which flats and loft spaces we need to get into, and you arrange access.
- We inspect each roof from safe vantage points, the roof space and the roof itself where safe.
- Every defect we find is photographed and given a priority where relevant.
- We send a written report you can use to plan maintenance and budgets.
Getting ready for the survey
- Unlock side gates and any roof access doors
- Dig out any old roof reports or invoices
- Buyers: confirm access with the estate agent or seller
Arrange a survey
Buyers should book once an offer has been accepted, so there is time to use the report before exchange. For any other survey, just call 07833 053749 or email us when you are ready.
Advice
What we look for on each type of roof
Pitched roofs on houses and blocks
On older pitched roofs, the fixings and underlay often fail before good slates or tiles. The report records it.
Roof spaces and lofts
Access to the loft may be through a flat or a common area and you will need to arrange it.
Questions from Westfield
Is Westfield within the area you cover?
Yes, Westfield is on our map. Villages and rural addresses get the same survey as a town house.
How do I find out if my home in Westfield is listed?
The council and Historic England’s list are the places to check. It is worth checking before planning roof work, as both can affect what’s allowed.
How do I book a survey in Westfield?
To arrange a survey, ring 07833 053749 or email us and tell us the address and what you’d like to know. We will confirm the price and agree a day with you.
Which days do you carry out surveys?
Surveys run seven days a week. To find a day that suits you, call 07833 053749 or use the contact form.
How long have you been surveying roofs?
Over 5,000 surveys so far, across 20+ years of surveying roofs, with 98% customer satisfaction.
Do you need to get into the loft?
If the survey needs it and the loft space can be reached safely, yes. Please clear anything stored under the hatch, and if the loft cannot be reached safely, the report says so.
Will you inspect a roof that several owners share?
Yes, we survey shared roofs frequently. Where a neighbouring roof isn’t part of the access, we can only see it from vantage points and we will say so.
Landlords, agents and block managers in Westfield
For a freeholder or residents’ company, a roof report is a sound basis for a maintenance plan, with the most urgent items set out first.
We survey roofs for letting agents and landlords as well as homeowners. The report gives you a dated record of the let or shared roof, with photographs, useful for planning maintenance.
Why act early in Westfield
Water that gets into one flat can affect others below. Early surveys help avoid damage spreading between flats. Tradespeople may need to travel further to a smaller place like Westfield, so it’s useful to plan roof work rather than call someone out in a hurry. Knowing early gives you time to get the right people in.
