About our landlord roof survey in Womenswold
A landlord roof survey shows you the state of a roof in a report you can plan around. We work for landlords, letting agents, managing agents and freeholders, as well as residents’ and RTM management companies. You get a written report with photos and recommendations set out by urgency where relevant. It’s a roof survey, not a RICS Level 2 or 3 survey of the whole building. If you’re worried about damaged pots and flaunching and failed flashings at walls and chimneys, we can find out what’s behind it, whatever the roof.
Some older homes in villages like Womenswold 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. Knowing the roof’s condition helps you plan ahead with that in mind. Where a building is listed, matching the existing roof materials is often expected.
Every survey ends with a written report, with photos, emailed to you. It explains the condition of the let or shared roof, the defects we found and what we recommend.

When to book a survey in Womenswold
Agents and freeholders have budgets to set. Without a recent survey, it’s hard to know what the roof needs and how soon.
People normally book a survey after spotting something like this:
- Flashings that have come away
- Missing or loose roof coverings
- Choked outlets and gutters
- Parapets and upstands in poor repair
For an older house near a landmark like Church of St Margaret, the nails, lead and mortar on the roof may be wearing out even where the slates or tiles look fine.
Before you book any roof surveyor
- What the survey will not cover
- What the report includes, and whether it has photos
- Do they have a CAA Flyer ID and Operator ID for drone work?
- Is VAT included in the price?
What you can safely check yourself
It helps to keep a record: when leaks happen, ground-level photos and any past roof work. Send it with your enquiry, as it helps us focus the survey.
During heavy rain, look at the gutters from ground level or a window. Overflowing water can be a sign of a blockage or a gutter that has dropped.
How the survey works
Every roof is different, but as a rough guide the survey takes roughly 1–2 hours at a typical home, or half a day or so for a commercial building. If you have questions on the day, just ask. Older roofs in small places like Womenswold can have low, tight loft spaces, so tell us about the loft hatch and any ladder. Only areas that can be reached safely are inspected.
- We agree which roofs and which parts of the building are included.
- You or your agent arrange access to the roof space and any flats we need to enter.
- The roofs are inspected from ground level, vantage points, the loft space and the roof where it’s safe.
- We photograph each defect and note how urgent it looks.
- We send a written report you can use to plan maintenance and budgets.
Getting ready for the survey
- For a flat or shared roof, check access with the freeholder or managing agent
- Make a note of anything you’d like us to look at
- If it is not your property yet, arrange access through the agent

What else we do in Womenswold
Womenswold homes and their roofs
Across Kent, older roofs are often handmade clay or peg tiles, and tile-hanging on upper walls is a familiar sight. You will also find oast houses and timber-framed Wealden hall houses among the county’s older buildings. On roofs like these, good slates or tiles can outlast the nails, battens, lead and mortar around them. Goodnestone Park, about 2.8 miles north-east, is one of the historic houses in the wider area around Womenswold. On older houses around here, roofs often carry the marks of earlier repairs, from replaced slates to new lead.
If you let a flat or house near Snowdown station, a roof report helps you deal with small faults before they turn into a call from a tenant.

Why act early in Womenswold

Womenswold questions
Do you survey roofs for landlords with property near Snowdown station?
Yes, landlords and agents book with us as well as owners. Just call 07833 053749 or email us and tell us about the building, including who will give access on the day.
Does a conservation area affect roof work in Womenswold?
You can check whether a building is listed on Historic England’s list, and your council can tell you if it’s in a conservation area. Listed building consent is needed for changes that affect a listed building’s special interest, and conservation areas can limit changes of roofing material.
How long will you be at the property?
It typically takes about one to two hours for a single let house, with blocks of flats taking longer. The written report follows by email, on the timescale of your package.
How much does a landlord roof survey cost in Womenswold?
Prices start from £150, including VAT. The final figure depends on the roof and the package you choose, confirmed before anything is booked.
Can you survey a shared roof?
Yes. A shared roof needs access agreed first, with the freeholder or managing agent. Tell us about it as you book and we will explain what’s needed.
Do you survey on Saturdays and Sundays?
Surveys run on any day of the week. To find a day that suits you, call 07833 053749 or drop us an email.
Are you insured?
We hold professional indemnity and public liability insurance.
