Weston Green Landlord Roof Survey
Roof condition reports for landlords, agents and blocks of flats in Weston Green, carried out by an experienced roof surveyor. Every survey comes with a written report and photographs.
- Gaps where tiles or slates have slipped
- Blocked gutters over flats
- Cracked or lifting flashings
Common roof problems in Weston Green
Roofs on let and shared buildings often get less regular attention than owner-occupied homes. Small defects go unnoticed until water comes through a ceiling, by which point the damage has spread.
We are often asked to look at:
- Flashings that have come away
- Parapets and upstands in poor repair
- Choked outlets and gutters
- Damp or stains in top-floor flats
Living close to Giggs Hill Green is pleasant, but mature trees mean leaves in gutters and valleys each autumn, and blocked gutters overflow and soak walls.
Before booking anyone
- Will they check the loft as well as the outside?

Landlord roof survey in Weston Green
A landlord roof survey shows you the state of a roof, written up so you can plan. We work for landlords, letting agents, managing agents and freeholders, as well as residents’ and RTM management companies. The report covers defects, photos and recommendations set out by urgency where relevant. It’s a roof survey, not a RICS Level 2 or 3 survey of the whole building. We survey converted houses, flat roofs on blocks and gutters and downpipes, and people most often book us about mortar falling from ridges and verges and leaking joints at party walls.
Older buildings in small places like Weston Green may be 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 frequently expected.
Nothing in the report is left vague: where something needs attention, it says so plainly, and where it can wait, that is said too.

Before and after the survey
Over many surveys, some simple habits stand out as worth the effort:
- Keep roof outlets and gutters clear
- Don’t wait for a leak to survey the roof
- Get legal advice on lease responsibilities
- Give tenants a simple way to report leaks
Report times depend on the package: within 48 hours for Basic, 24–48 hours for Standard and the same day for Premium. Pick the package that suits the building and your timescale.
Have the roof looked at regularly, not just when it leaks. A survey every few years suits many let and shared buildings with gutters cleared every year.

How it works
Safety comes first on every visit. Everything that can safely be seen is inspected, and anything we can’t see is noted in the report. The survey normally takes about 1–2 hours at most homes, with bigger or more complicated roofs taking longer. In a small place like Weston Green, access is typically the main thing to plan. Let us know about outbuildings, past repairs and any leaks you’ve noticed. Visits can be on weekdays, Saturdays or Sundays.
- First, we confirm the scope and the purpose of the report.
- You arrange access to the loft and any flats we need.
- We inspect each roof as far as it can be seen safely.
- We photograph defects and note how urgent they look.
- A written condition report follows to help you plan.
How to prepare
- Leave a clear route to the loft
- Buyers: confirm access with the estate agent or seller
- Jot down any questions you want answered
Book a survey
A quick phone call is normally the easiest start: call 07833 053749 or drop us an email and we will ask a few questions about the roof. The price is agreed before a date is set.
Advice
What a survey costs
Not every roof costs the same to survey, and it comes down to:
- Basic, Standard or Premium
- House, block, shop or office
- Whether thermal imaging or a drone is needed
- How complicated the roof is, with its valleys, chimneys and parapets
Our price is from £150, including VAT. Basic starts from £150, Standard from £250 and Premium from £400, VAT included, and we’ll tell you which fits.
What we need to know
There is no need for technical words. It’s enough to tell us:
- Where the property is, with the postcode
- Where water is showing inside, if it is
- How the loft is reached, if there is one
- Your timetable, such as an exchange date
Prices start from £150, including VAT. What you pay depends on the roof’s size, access and the package, so call 07833 053749 or use the contact form with the details.

Weston Green homes and their roofs
The wider area around Weston Green has a long history of building, with Hampton Court Palace about 1.3 miles north. Period homes nearby can have lead valleys, tall chimneys and a patchwork of past repairs, and a listed home or one in a conservation area may need consent for changes of material. In Surrey, older roofs are often handmade clay tile, with tile-hanging on many upper walls. A few of Surrey’s oldest buildings have heavy Horsham stone slab roofs. Each of these coverings has its own weak points, from fixings and valleys to flashings, chimneys and gutters.
If you own a rental within reach of Thames Ditton station, knowing the condition of the roof, chimneys and gutters helps you plan work rather than react to complaints. For businesses in and around places like Bentall Centre, a written record of the roof’s condition helps you plan maintenance rather than react to leaks.

Questions from Weston Green
Do you survey roofs for landlords with property near Thames Ditton station?
Yes, that is a common request. Let us know whether a tenant or an agent will let us in, and we can send the report to you or your agent.
Does a conservation area affect roof work in Weston Green?
Check Historic England’s online list first, then ask the council about conservation areas and any Article 4 direction. The answer matters most when a change of material is on the cards.
Is this a RICS survey?
No. We’re experienced roof surveyors, and our survey covers the roof rather than the whole building. If you need a full building survey, you will need a RICS survey as well.
How much does a landlord roof survey cost in Weston Green?
Our price is from £150, including VAT. We confirm the price for your survey before you book. For a price, phone 07833 053749 or drop us an email.
Will you check the loft?
Where it’s relevant to the survey and there is safe access, yes. Please clear anything stored under the hatch, and if the loft can’t be reached safely, the report says so.
Is Weston Green in your area?
Yes. We survey roofs across London and South East England, Weston Green included.
Will you walk on the roof?
Only where it is safe to do so. We inspect everything that’s safely in view: from ground level, from windows and vantage points, from the roof space, from the roof itself where safe and by drone where applicable. Anything we can’t see is noted in the report.
Checking the roof from ground level
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. Leave anything above ground level to a survey.
Watch the gutters in a downpour, from a window or the ground. Water spilling over the edge can be a sign of a blockage or a gutter that has dropped.
