Wildhern Landlord Roof Survey
Landlord roof surveys in Wildhern and the rest of Hampshire. We survey seven days a week.
- Missing or loose roof coverings
- Ponding or splits on flat roofs
- Worn ridges, hips and verges
What we do, step by step
Time on site depends on the size and shape of the roof, but as a rough guide the survey takes about one to two hours for a single let house, with blocks of flats taking longer. You’re welcome to ask questions while we’re there. In a small place like Wildhern, access is normally 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.
- You let us know about the building, its roofs and any known leaks.
- We confirm the access we will need.
- We check coverings, flashings, gutters and chimneys where they can be seen.
- The report records areas we couldn’t access.
- Findings and recommendations are set out with photos.
How to prepare
- Move anything stored under the loft hatch
- Show us where any leaks or stains appear
- Have any paperwork from past roof work to hand
How to book
Landlord roof survey starts from £150, including VAT. What you pay depends on the roof’s size, access and the package, so ring 07833 053749 or send us an email with the details.
Advice
How a landlord roof survey works in Wildhern
Shared roofs on blocks, converted houses and terraces raise their own questions. We check the roof from every safe vantage point, including from the roof space and the flats where access is arranged. The report records the condition of each part, so everyone works from the same facts. We can only inspect the parts of a shared roof we are allowed to reach. We survey blocks of flats, converted houses and rented houses, and the problems we are asked to look at most are gaps where tiles or slates have slipped and loose ridge or hip tiles.
In a village or hamlet like Wildhern, older cottages and farmhouses frequently sit alongside barns, outbuildings and a few newer houses. Older roofs may be clay tile, slate, stone or thatch, often with chimneys that have stood a long time. Each needs checking in its own way, and thatch is a specialist material we report on as far as it can be seen. Chimneys and lead flashings on old roofs frequently need the most attention.
With the Standard Survey, you also get moisture detection, a structural check and a follow-up consultation. The Premium Survey goes further, with thermal imaging, drone inspection where it applies, structural analysis and an in-person consultation.

What a landlord roof survey doesn’t cover
This isn’t a RICS building survey, a structural engineer’s report or an asbestos survey. Other limits to bear in mind:
- The rest of the building, as a RICS Level 2 or 3 survey would
- Parts of the roof we can’t safely see or access
- Whether materials contain asbestos (a specialist asbestos surveyor’s job)
If in doubt, ring 07833 053749 or send us an email and we’ll suggest the right survey. The full list of what we check.
Roofs we survey in Wildhern

What happens if roof problems are left?
Finding a roof defect early normally means a smaller, planned job. Left until it leaks, a roof can damage ceilings and tenants’ belongings, plus urgent call-outs. In a small place like Wildhern, homes can be exposed to wind and rain, which finds any gap, and damp in older walls is slow to dry out.
We offer three survey packages: the Basic Survey from £150, the Standard Survey from £250 and the Premium Survey from £400, all inc. VAT. The price for your roof depends on its size, access and what you need to know.
What you get with us
- 20+ years’ experience
- An independent look at the roof

Practical tips
A survey works best with a little help from you, before and after. Tips:
- Keep past survey reports with the building’s records
- Ask your managing agent about lease terms
- Keep the loft hatch clear and reachable
- Tell tenants when we are coming
If you need to share the findings with leaseholders or a board, the photos help. The report is written in plain language.
Act on urgent items in the report first and schedule the others. Small roof defects tend to grow.
Landlords, agents and block managers in Wildhern
Letting agents and landlords in Wildhern book surveys as well as homeowners. A written report with photographs gives you a clear record of the let or shared roof, useful for planning maintenance.
We also survey roofs for businesses and commercial landlords. Bigger roofs take more time.
Roofs, chimneys and gutters in Wildhern
A number of Hampshire villages keep thatched roofs on their older buildings. In this part of the South East, older roofs are mostly slate or clay tile and many newer ones concrete tile. On roofs like these, good slates or tiles can outlast the nails, battens, lead and mortar around them. What can be done to an older roof may depend on listing or a conservation area. The council is the place to check, along with Historic England’s list, before anyone quotes for re-roofing.
If you look after a building such as Hatherden Church of England Primary School, large buildings have long gutter runs and big roofs that need checking like any other. The streets around a church such as Christchurch are often among the oldest in a place, and if yours is one of the older homes nearby, corroded nails, tired lead and weathered chimney pointing are the things to watch on older roofs.

Other services in Wildhern
Do you need a landlord roof survey in Wildhern?
People living in a building seldom see the roof itself. Slipped slates, cracked flashings and blocked gutters can sit unnoticed for years, particularly on taller buildings.
Problems we come across often include:
- Flashings that have come away
- Leaks into upper flats
- Loose ridge or hip tiles
- Chimney stacks in poor repair
If you let a flat or house near Andover station, a roof report between tenancies helps plan work before a small defect becomes a tenant’s leak.
What to check before booking
- How long they’ve been surveying roofs
- Which parts of the roof they’ll actually see
- Are they insured for the work?
- Their report turnaround times
Wildhern questions
Is Wildhern within the area you cover?
Yes, we do. Our area covers London and South East England, and smaller places are part of that. The journey is planned ahead, so it helps to know about access.
Do you survey roofs for landlords with property near Andover station?
Yes, rented property is part of what we cover. You can call 07833 053749 or email us with the address and some details, including who will give access on the day.
Is this an asbestos survey?
No. Asbestos surveys and sampling aren’t something we do. Where a material might contain it, like old cement sheets on a building from before 2000, the report flags it, with a recommendation to have a specialist asbestos surveyor check before it’s disturbed.
Which days do you carry out surveys?
Visits run seven days a week in the daytime. Let us know your preferred days as you book.
Will you go up 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.
How experienced are you?
Over 5,000 surveys so far, over more than 20 years, and 98% of customers are satisfied.
What’s the best way to book?
The quickest way is to ring 07833 053749 or use the contact form. Tell us the address and a little about the roof, and we will recommend the right survey. We survey on weekdays and at weekends.
