Landlord Roof Survey in Weybourne
A careful look at the let or shared roof at your property in Weybourne, and put it all in a written report with photos.
- Cracked or leaning shared chimneys
- Loose ridge or hip tiles
- Damaged party-wall upstands or parapets
What we do, step by step
After the inspection, everything we found is written up as a report with photographs. As for time on site, most surveys take between one and two hours on an ordinary house, and longer for a large or complex roof. A visit to a smaller place like Weybourne is no different on the day: we look from ground level, from windows, from the loft and from the roof where it’s safe. Point out any stains, cracks or loose pieces you’ve spotted.
- We start by agreeing the scope, roof by roof.
- Access to flats and the loft space is arranged with you in advance.
- Each roof is checked as far as it can be seen safely, including from inside where possible.
- 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.
Preparing for the visit
- Let us know where we can park nearby
- Note where any stains or damp appear
- Make a note of anything you’d like us to look at

Landlord roof surveys for homes and businesses in Weybourne
We survey let and shared roofs in Weybourne and across London and the South East. Time on site normally takes an hour or two on an ordinary house, and longer for a large or complex roof. We inspect from ground level, vantage points, the loft space and the roof where it is safe, and by drone where it’s applicable. A written report with photos follows. If you’re worried about ponding or splits on flat roofs and cracked or leaning shared chimneys, we can find out what’s behind it.
Houses in smaller places like Weybourne can face open ground, where wind and driving rain hit the roof harder. That weather tells first on ridges, verges, chimneys and flashings. A proper look shows whether anything has started to loosen. Once one ridge tile or slate moves, wind gets under the next one too.
The Standard Survey adds moisture detection, a structural check and a follow-up consultation. The Premium Survey adds thermal imaging, drone inspection where it applies, structural analysis and an in-person consultation.

What affects the price in Weybourne
Survey packages start from £150, including VAT. The price for your roof depends on:
- Whether it is a home or a commercial building
- The size of the roof
- Whether thermal imaging or a drone is needed
- Extra roofs, like extensions, dormers or garages
Bigger, taller and commercial roofs take more time to survey, so they’re priced to match. You’ll know the figure before booking.
Booking your survey
Before you get in touch, it is useful to have:
- What made you get in touch
- The style of property, from a terrace to a block
- When you need the report by
- Whether there is a loft hatch, a shared roof or tricky access
Buyers should book once an offer has been accepted, so you have the findings in time to act on them before you exchange. For any other survey, just ring 07833 053749 or email us when you’re ready.
Weybourne homes and their roofs
In Surrey, older roofs are often handmade clay tile, with tile-hanging on many upper walls. Horsham stone slab roofs survive on some old buildings in Surrey. On roofs like these, good slates or tiles can outlast the nails, battens, lead and mortar around them. The wider area around Weybourne has a long history of building, with Farnham Castle about 1.6 miles south-west. Older roofs in the wider area can hide decades of patch repairs, so the detail matters.
The streets around a church such as Church of the Ascension are often among the oldest in a place, and if yours is one of the older homes nearby, its roof may have old fixings, lead flashings and chimneys that need a closer look. If you let a flat or house near Aldershot station, a dated record of the roof is useful when planning maintenance across a let.
Weybourne is about 1 mile south-west of Aldershot, in Surrey. We carry out landlord roof surveys for homeowners, landlords and businesses in Weybourne and the surrounding area. Across Surrey, we cover Weybourne and the places around it. Guildford is in our area too.
Surveys in GU9 are booked the same way as anywhere else. Streets in the area include Weywood Lane, St David's Close and Woodbourne. Being close to the B3007, Weybourne is simple for us to get to for landlord roof surveys. We also cover Heath End (1 mile west), Hale (1 mile south-west), Badshot Lea (1 mile south-east), Upper Hale (1 mile west) and Aldershot (1 mile north-east). Further out, we also cover Guildford (9 miles east), Woking (10 miles north-east), Camberley (7 miles north), Frimley (6 miles north), Haslemere (11 miles south) and Cranleigh (14 miles south-east).
Around Weybourne
Typical jobs here are in homes near William Cobbett Primary School, Weybourne LNR and Prince Consort's Library. The nearest railway station is Aldershot station, roughly 1 mile north-east of the centre. Well-known places in the area include Museum of Farnham (1.9 miles south-west) and Farnham Castle (1.6 miles south-west). Green spaces nearby include Aunt's Pool and Rowhill Nature Reserve.
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. Don’t go up yourself.
A DIY look is useful, but it is not a survey. From ground level, valleys, flashings and the backs of chimneys are often out of sight, and those are details a survey looks at closely.
Useful tips for Weybourne property owners
Over many surveys, some simple habits stand out:
- Keep past survey reports with the building’s records
- Deal with urgent items first
- Check your lease or ask a solicitor about who pays
- Ask residents to report damp right away
Photos make it easier to explain the findings to leaseholders, tenants or directors. We keep the report clear and jargon-light.
Act on urgent items in the report first and schedule the others. Small roof defects tend to grow.
How the survey changes by roof type
Shared chimney stacks
Chimneys often let water in at the flashings. We note what we can see.
Gutters and downpipes
Overflowing gutters soak walls and can lead to damp in flats. Any problems are photographed.
Questions from Weybourne
Do you survey roofs for landlords with property near Aldershot station?
Yes, rented property is part of what we cover. You can phone 07833 053749 or send us an email with the address and a few details.
Is my home in Weybourne listed or in a conservation area?
We cannot confirm that for you, but Historic England’s list and your council can. A change of roofing material may need consent in either case, and councils can also use Article 4 directions.
Which days do you carry out surveys?
We survey seven days a week: weekdays, Saturdays and Sundays. Just tell us the days that suit you.
Is this a RICS survey?
No. This is a survey of the roof only, so it’s not a RICS Level 2 or Level 3 survey. It can sit alongside a RICS survey if you want both.
What’s the best way to book?
It’s easiest to phone 07833 053749 or drop us an email. Tell us the address and a little about the roof, and we will recommend the right survey. We survey on weekdays and at weekends.
Will you walk on the roof?
Not always. Some roofs are too steep or fragile to walk on safely. Safe viewpoints, the loft and a drone where applicable let us see the rest.
What insurance do you have?
We hold professional indemnity and public liability insurance, for every survey we carry out.
What we’re asked to look at in Weybourne
Many let properties sit under roofs that have seen decades of weather. Nails, battens, flashings and underlay frequently fail before good slates or tiles so it pays to check how the roof is holding up.
These are some of the problems a survey can pick up:
- Ponding or splits on flat roofs
- Worn ridges, hips and verges
- Leaking joints at party walls
- Failed flashings at walls and chimneys
Take a building like All Hallows Catholic School: large buildings have long gutter runs and big roofs that need checking like any other.
Choosing a roof surveyor
- Which viewpoints they use to see the roof
- Whether you get a written report with photos
- Will they check the loft as well as the outside?
- Whether you can ask questions once you have the report
