- Choked outlets and gutters
- Mortar falling from ridges and verges

When to book a survey in Weston Turville
Landlords need to plan spending on a building. Without a recent survey, it is hard to know what the roof needs and how soon.
Signs worth acting on include:
- Missing or loose roof coverings
- Flashings that have come away
- Splits and blisters in flat roof coverings
- Mortar falling from ridges and verges
Anyone responsible for a site like Weston Turville Church of England School will know that long gutter runs and wide roofs on a building that size are worth checking on a regular cycle.
What to check before booking
- Their drone registration, if they fly one
- Whether the loft is part of the inspection
- Whether you can ask questions once you have the report
- How they plan to inspect the roof safely
How a landlord roof survey works in Weston Turville
Our landlord roof survey gives you a clear picture of a roof’s condition, written up so you can plan. Landlords, letting agents, managing agents and freeholders all use it, as well as residents’ and RTM management companies. The report covers defects, photos and recommendations, prioritised by urgency where relevant. It is a roof survey, not a RICS Level 2 or 3 survey of the whole building. We survey shared roofs, blocks of flats and gutters and downpipes, and people most often book us about standing water on a flat roof and missing or loose roof coverings.
In a smaller place like Weston Turville, some roofs stand more exposed to wind and rain than in a built-up town. Ridge tiles, verges, chimney stacks and flashings take the worst of it. Checking those edges shows whether anything has begun to work loose before it lets water in. A loose ridge tile or slate gives the wind something to catch, and others soon follow.
After the visit, you get a report with photographs, sent by email. It sets out the condition of the let or shared roof, any defects and our written recommendations.

Roofs, chimneys and gutters in Weston Turville
What can be done to an older roof may depend on listing or a conservation area. Your council and Historic England’s list will tell you where you stand, ideally before any re-roofing is planned. A number of Buckinghamshire villages keep thatched roofs on their older buildings. Older houses in the South East often have slate or clay tile roofs, while many later estates have concrete tiles. Knowing the covering helps explain which parts of a roof are likely to need work first.
If you live in an older home near Church of St Mary the Virgin, the nails, lead and mortar on the roof may be wearing out even where the slates or tiles look fine. Landlords with a home close to Stoke Mandeville station may find that a roof report between tenancies helps plan work before a small defect becomes a tenant’s leak.

How the survey works
Safety comes first on every visit. Everything that can be seen safely is inspected, and if part of the roof can’t be seen, the report says so. Most visits take between one and two hours for a single let house, with blocks of flats taking longer. Some parts of a survey depend on the weather, so a visit to Weston Turville is booked with the forecast in mind: the parts that need calm, dry weather are planned around it.
- First, we confirm the scope and the purpose of the report.
- Access to flats and the loft space is arranged by you or your agent.
- 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.
Getting ready for the survey
- Jot down any questions you want answered
- For a flat or shared roof, check access with whoever owns or manages the building
- Clear the way to the loft hatch

Advice
DIY checks: what’s safe
Look up at the roof after a storm, from ground level: 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.
It is useful to keep a record: when leaks happen, ground-level photos and any past roof work. Send it with your enquiry, as it helps us focus the survey.

What happens if roof problems are left?
An independent report helps when owners need to agree on roof work. Without a survey, it is one opinion against another. Around Weston Turville, leaves and moss in gutters lead to overflowing water and damp walls. Dealing with the cause is simple; drying out a wall is not.
Simple, low roofs take less time to survey than tall or complicated ones, and the package you pick makes a difference too. We’ll give you the figure before anything is booked.

Your questions about landlord roof surveys in Weston Turville
Does a conservation area affect roof work in Weston Turville?
Your council is the best source, with Historic England’s list for listed buildings. Both listing and conservation areas can limit changes of roofing material.
Do you cover smaller places like Weston Turville?
Yes. Weston Turville is within the area we cover, which takes in towns, villages and rural addresses. We cover the whole of London and South East England. Let us know about access, parking and anything unusual about getting there when you book.
How do I arrange a landlord roof survey in Weston Turville?
To book, call 07833 053749 or use the contact form with the address, the type of property and what’s prompted the survey. We’ll confirm the price and agree a day with you.
Which days do you carry out surveys?
Visits run seven days a week in the daytime. Just say which days work for you.
Do I have to be there for the survey?
That depends on the survey. Inside the building and in the loft, we need someone to let us in, while outside access can be discussed when you book.
Will you fly a drone over my roof?
Where it helps and it’s safe, yes. Whether we can fly on the day depends on the weather and the airspace rules. We’re a CAA-registered drone operator.
How much time does the visit need?
For a single house, expect about 1–2 hours on site, with blocks and complex roofs taking longer.
For landlords and managing agents
Shared roofs need a little more planning: access has to be agreed with whoever owns or manages the building. Tell us about it as you book and we will plan the survey around it.
We survey roofs for landlords and letting agents as well as homeowners. The report gives you a dated record of the let or shared roof, with photos.
What a survey costs
A few things affect what a survey costs:
- Features like valleys, chimneys, dormers and parapets
- The height of the building and how the roof can safely be seen
- The roof’s overall size
- If the survey needs thermal imaging or a drone
The cost of a survey depends on the roof: how big it is, how high it is, the number of separate roofs and how it can be reached and seen safely. Landlord roof survey starts from £150, including VAT.
