What affects the price in Wherwell
To price your survey, we look at:
- Features like valleys, chimneys, dormers and parapets
- Height and safe access
- Which survey package you book
- Commercial roofs and larger buildings
Bigger, taller and commercial roofs take more time to survey, so the price reflects that. The price is confirmed before booking.
What we need to know
There is no need for technical words. Just tell us:
- The style of property, from a terrace to a block
- Your postcode, so we can check access and travel
- Where water is showing inside, if it is
- Pictures of the roof from a safe spot, if you have them
Prices start from £150, including VAT. What you pay depends on the roof’s size, access and the package, so ring 07833 053749 or drop us an email with the details.
About our landlord roof survey in Wherwell
Who pays for roof work on a block depends on the lease. We don’t give legal advice on leases but we can give you an independent record of the roof’s condition. That can help when owners, freeholders and agents need to agree what happens next. You get photos and written recommendations, prioritised by urgency where relevant. Common reasons to book are flashings that have come away and gaps where tiles or slates have slipped, across converted houses, blocks of flats and gutters and downpipes.
Village roofs frequently face open fields and take the full force of wind and rain, so ridges, chimney stacks, flashings and gutters work hard. Damp in old walls is slow to dry, so a small leak can do a lot of harm. A written report sets out what to deal with and in what order. On exposed older roofs, chimneys and lead flashings are often the first to give way.
It is not only a list of defects. It explains what we found, why it matters and what we recommend, so you can decide what to do next.

Your questions about landlord roof surveys in Wherwell
Is Wherwell within the area you cover?
We do. A small place gets exactly the same survey as a big one, with the route planned beforehand.
Can a landlord with a rental near Andover station book a roof survey?
Yes, letting agents and landlords book with us as well as owners. Just phone 07833 053749 or send us an email and tell us about the building, including who will give access on the day.
Is this an asbestos survey?
No. Our report may flag materials that could contain asbestos, but confirming it is a job for a specialist asbestos surveyor. Buildings built or refurbished before 2000 may contain it.
Do you climb onto every roof?
Only if it is safe. We look at everything that can be seen safely: from ground level, from windows, from inside the loft space, from the roof where it is safe and by drone where applicable. The report says if anything couldn’t be seen.
Will you check the loft?
If there’s a loft and safe access to it, yes. The roof space can show things the outside can’t, like damp timbers, staining or daylight.
How long is the visit?
That depends on the size and shape of the roof, but most surveys take about 1–2 hours for a single let house, with blocks of flats taking longer. The report is sent afterwards by email.
How much is a survey?
Our price is from £150, including VAT. We confirm the price for your roof before booking, and it depends on the roof’s size, access and the package you choose. To get a price, ring 07833 053749 or drop us an email.
When you need someone else
A survey is a close look at the let or shared roof, but it cannot do everything. Its limits include:

What else we do in Wherwell
How it works
Once we have finished looking, we write up our findings in a report with photos, sent to you by email. As for time on site, most surveys take about 1–2 hours on an ordinary house, or half a day or so for a commercial building. In a hamlet or village like Wherwell, a postcode doesn’t always lead to the right gate, so a few directions are welcome. The visit itself is the same as anywhere else.
- We agree the roofs to be surveyed and what you need the report for.
- Access to flats and the loft space is arranged by you or your agent.
- Each roof is looked at from safe vantage points and inside where possible.
- Every defect is photographed and its urgency noted where relevant.
- You get a written report to plan maintenance and budgets.
Preparing for the visit
- Leave a clear route to the loft
- Have any questions written down, so nothing gets missed
- Keep pets inside or away from the areas we are looking at
Arrange a survey
A quick phone call is usually the easiest start: phone 07833 053749 or drop us an email. The price is agreed before a date is set.

Before and after the survey
You don’t need to be a roofer to help. Here’s what helps most:
- Book gutter clearing at least once a year
- Give residents notice before a survey
- Don’t store items over the loft hatch
- Get legal advice on lease responsibilities
Many clients use the report as the basis for a maintenance plan. You can start with the urgent items and the rest budgeted for later.
Have the roof looked at regularly, not just when it leaks. A survey every few years suits many let and shared buildings, alongside yearly gutter clearing.
Surveys for landlords and agents in Wherwell
If you own several properties, you can book surveys for several addresses. To discuss a number of properties, phone 07833 053749 or email us.
Freeholders and residents’ companies use a roof report to plan and budget, putting the urgent items at the top.
Why get it checked now?
A dated condition report is useful for the building’s records. Surveying again later shows what has changed which helps with rolling maintenance. Older and listed buildings around Wherwell may need consent and matching materials for repairs, so leaving a defect until it’s urgent leaves less time to plan.

Roofs, chimneys and gutters in Wherwell
England has around 10,000 conservation areas and about 500,000 listed buildings. If your home is listed, changes that affect its special interest need listed building consent, and in a conservation area re-roofing in different materials may need permission, so the council is the place to ask. Some Hampshire villages still have thatched roofs. Across the South East, older homes tend to have slate or clay tiles, and many later ones concrete tiles. Knowing the covering helps explain which parts of a roof are likely to need work first.
If you let a flat or house near Andover station, the gap between tenancies is a good time to have the roof looked at. If you live near a park like Longstock Park, or anywhere with mature trees, autumn leaves can block gutters and valleys. If you live in an older home near Church of St Peter and Holy Cross, its chimney, valleys and lead work are likely to be the parts that need attention first.
