Landlord roof surveys for homes and businesses in Wintershill
With a shared roof, it’s not always clear what’s wrong or where. We inspect the roof as far as it can be seen safely, 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 are often asked to look into ceiling stains reported by tenants and failed flashings at walls and chimneys, on shared roofs, blocks of flats and rented houses.
Some older homes in villages like Wintershill are listed or in a conservation area. If yours is, re-roofing in different materials may need consent, so the council is the place to check. A roof report helps you plan work with that in mind. Where a building is listed, matching the existing roof materials is frequently expected.
Report times depend on the survey you book: the Basic Survey within 48 hours, the Standard Survey in 24 to 48 hours and the Premium Survey on the same day.

Before and after the survey
Nothing here needs a ladder. A few suggestions:
- Act on high-priority defects quickly
- Arrange flat access ahead of time
- Get legal advice on lease responsibilities
- Keep roof surveys on a rolling plan
Many clients use the report as the basis for a maintenance plan. Urgent items can be dealt with first and plan the rest over time.
Regular roof checks beat waiting for a leak. Many landlords and agents survey their roofs on a rolling basis with gutters cleared every year.
Rented homes, blocks and businesses
If you own several properties, surveys can be booked for more than one address. To discuss a number of properties, phone 07833 053749 or drop us an email with the addresses.
Letting agents often book on a landlord’s behalf, with the report sent to whoever needs it. Access is agreed with the tenant beforehand.

Wintershill: your questions answered
Is my home in Wintershill listed or in a conservation area?
Check Historic England’s online list first, then ask the council about conservation areas and any Article 4 direction. The answer matters most when a change of material is on the cards.
Do you cover smaller places like Wintershill?
Yes, Wintershill is covered. We survey roofs across London and South East England, and smaller places are part of that. The journey is planned ahead, so it helps to know about access.
Will you inspect a roof that several owners share?
Yes, shared roofs are a common request. Where a neighbouring roof is not part of the access, we can only see it from vantage points, and the report says so.
Is this survey just for landlords?
Anyone who looks after a let or shared building can book it: landlords, agents, freeholders and residents’ management companies.
Are you insured?
Our cover is professional indemnity plus public liability, and we can provide details if a managing agent needs them.
Do you use drones?
Where it is applicable and safe, yes. We’re a CAA-registered drone operator (Flyer ID and Operator ID), flying a sub-250g drone. Drone inspection is part of the Drone Roof Survey and the Premium Survey, where applicable.
Can you tell me if my roof has asbestos?
No. Our report may flag materials that could contain asbestos, but only a specialist asbestos surveyor can confirm it. It may be present in buildings built or refurbished before 2000.
How it works
Once we’ve finished looking, we write up our findings as a report with photos, sent to you by email. As for time on site, it typically takes about 1–2 hours for a house, rising to roughly 3–4 hours on a commercial building. Somewhere like Wintershill needs a little journey planning: let us know about narrow lanes, gates, long drives and where we can park. The roof is looked at from ground level, from windows, from the loft where there’s safe access and from the roof where it is safe.
- We start with what you know about the building and its history.
- We confirm the access we will need.
- The roofs are inspected from ground level, vantage points, the loft space and the roof where safe.
- The report records areas we couldn’t access.
- You receive photos and recommendations, prioritised where relevant.
Preparing for the visit
- Move anything stored under the loft hatch
- Make sure we can get to the back of the property
- Point out any leaks or damp patches
How to book
You can call us seven days a week. For a price or to book, call 07833 053749 or drop us an email.
Advice
Different roofs, different checks
Pitched roofs on houses and blocks
Slate and tiled pitched roofs are common on let and shared buildings. Coverings, ridges, hips, valleys and flashings are inspected as far as can safely be seen.
Flat roofs on blocks and rear additions
Felt flat roofs often need replacing after around 15–20 years, so their age matters.
What a landlord roof survey looks like in Wintershill
A number of Hampshire villages keep thatched roofs on their older buildings. Older houses in the South East frequently have slate or clay tile roofs, while many later estates have concrete tiles. On roofs like these, good slates or tiles can outlast the nails, battens, lead and mortar around them. There are about 500,000 buildings on England’s list of listed buildings, and around 10,000 conservation areas. 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.
Landlords with a home close to Hedge End station may find that a roof report helps you deal with small faults before they turn into a call from a tenant. Take a building like Wyvern Technology College: a written record of a large roof helps plan work for the holidays rather than in term time.

Prices for landlord roof surveys in Wintershill
The price reflects the time and kit the roof needs. The main factors are:
- The roof’s overall size
- The shape of the roof and its details
- Commercial roofs and larger buildings
- How many separate roofs there are, like extensions, dormers and garages
Larger roofs, taller buildings and commercial roofs take longer, so they’re priced to match. The price is confirmed before you book.

Honest limits
This isn’t a RICS building survey, a structural engineer’s report or an asbestos survey. Other limits to bear in mind:
- Asbestos testing of roof sheets or soffits
- The rest of the building, as a RICS Level 2 or 3 survey would
- A full structural assessment of the building
