Landlord roof surveys for Winchfield Hurst homes and businesses

Landlord roof surveys for homes and businesses in Winchfield Hurst

Our landlord and block roof surveys cover Winchfield Hurst and the rest of London and the South East. Time on site usually takes about one to two hours for a house, while a commercial roof takes nearer three to four hours. Everything is inspected as far as it can be seen safely, and by drone where it is applicable. A written report with photos follows. Common reasons to book are gutters overflowing onto walls and standing water on a flat roof, on blocks of flats, flat roofs on blocks and rented houses.

In a small place like Winchfield Hurst, many roofs stand in the open, 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 roof report shows what needs attention first. Lead flashings and old chimney stacks are often where weather gets in first.

It is not only a list of defects. For each finding, it explains what it is, why it matters and what we’d recommend.

Why it’s worth a survey now in Winchfield Hurst

Tenants can only report what shows inside. By the time a stain appears, water may have been getting in for a while. We check the roof, not just the symptoms. In a small place like Winchfield Hurst, homes can be exposed to wind and rain, which finds any gap, and older walls, once damp, take a long time to dry.

To find out what your survey will cost, ring 07833 053749 or drop us an email and tell us about the roof. We will confirm the figure before booking.

Local roofs in Winchfield Hurst

If your home is older, it’s worth knowing whether it is listed or in a conservation area before planning roof work. Listed building consent covers changes to a listed building’s special interest, and an Article 4 direction can bring extra controls in a conservation area. Some Hampshire villages still have thatched roofs. In this part of the South East, older roofs are mostly slate or clay tile and many newer ones concrete tile. Each of these coverings has its own weak points, from fixings and valleys to flashings, chimneys and gutters.

Living close to Calthorpe Park is pleasant, but mature trees mean leaves in gutters and valleys each autumn. 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. For landlords with property near Winchfield station, the gap between tenancies is a good time to have the roof looked at.

Questions from Winchfield Hurst

Does a conservation area affect roof work in Winchfield Hurst?

Historic England’s list shows listed buildings, and the local council can tell you about conservation areas. If a 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.

Do you survey roofs for landlords with property near Winchfield station?

Yes, rented property is part of what we cover. You can phone 07833 053749 or email us with the address and a few details, including who will give access on the day.

Do you look in the roof space?

If the survey needs it and the loft space can be reached safely, yes. Please clear anything stored under the hatch, and if the loft can’t be reached safely, the report says so.

Are you insured?

Every survey is covered by professional indemnity and public liability insurance.

How experienced are you?

More than 5,000 surveys over 20+ years.

Do I have to be there for the survey?

It depends on what we need to see. Inside the building and in the loft, we need someone to let us in, while outside access can be discussed as you book.

Do you climb onto every roof?

Only when it is safe. Safe viewpoints, the loft space and a drone where it applies cover most of what’s needed.

Before and after the survey

From years of surveys, a few habits stand out:

  • Ask your managing agent about lease terms
  • Do not wait for a leak to survey the roof
  • Keep roof outlets and gutters clear
  • Make leak reporting easy for tenants

Questions about the findings are welcome. The Standard Survey includes a follow-up consultation, and Premium includes an in-person consultation.

Ask tenants and residents to report damp, stains or drips promptly. Early reports let you act before damage spreads.

How we price landlord roof surveys

All our prices include VAT. What changes the price is:

  • How many separate roofs there are, such as extensions, dormers and garages
  • If the survey needs thermal imaging or a drone
  • Chimneys, valleys, parapets and other details
  • House, block, shop or office

Every price we give includes VAT. Landlord roof survey starts from £150, including VAT. We confirm the price for your roof before booking.

Booking your survey

A few details help us point you to the right survey and price. When you contact us, tell us:

  • Anything about access we should know
  • When you need the report by
  • Any stains, drips or damp patches you’ve seen indoors
  • What made you get in touch

To arrange a survey, call 07833 053749 or drop us an email with the address and what you’d like to know about the roof. You will know the price before anything is booked.

Checking the roof from ground level

During heavy rain, look at the gutters from the ground or a window. Overflowing water can point to a blockage or a sagging run.

Your own check is a good start, but it isn’t a survey. You won’t see flashings, valleys or the backs of chimneys properly from the ground.

What happens on the day

The aim of the visit is simple: to look at the let or shared roof as closely as is safe and record what we find. Everything we note and photograph goes into the written report. It typically takes roughly 1–2 hours on an ordinary house, with bigger or more complicated roofs taking longer. In a small place like Winchfield Hurst, access is normally the main thing to plan. Let us know about outbuildings, past repairs and any leaks you’ve noticed. Weekday and weekend visits are available.

  1. We start by agreeing the scope, roof by roof.
  2. Access to flats and the roof space is arranged with you in advance.
  3. The roofs are inspected from the ground, vantage points, the loft space and the roof where it is safe.
  4. We photograph each defect and note how urgent it looks.
  5. We send a written report you can use to plan maintenance and budgets.

Preparing for the visit

  • Show us where any leaks or stains appear
  • Have any questions written down, so nothing gets missed
  • Find any records of previous roof work

Arrange a survey

Most bookings start with a short call: ring 07833 053749 or drop us an email, and we will ask about the building and what you need. The price is agreed before a date is set.

How the survey changes by roof type

Shared chimney stacks

Many terraces and conversions have shared stacks. We check pots, flaunching, pointing and flashings as far as can be seen.

Party-wall upstands and parapets

Terraced roofs have party-wall upstands between houses. Their flashings and pointing can let water in.
