Why it is worth a survey now in Wyck
Relying on what tenants report means relying on what they can see. By the time a stain appears, water may have been getting in for a while. We look at the roof, not just the symptoms. Outbuildings and barns around Wyck are easy to forget, but a failed roof there can spoil what’s stored inside. A quick look before winter can save a lot.
Larger roofs, taller buildings and commercial roofs take longer, so they’re priced to match. You will know the figure before booking.

About our landlord roof survey in Wyck
Our landlord and block roof surveys cover Wyck and the rest of London and the South East. A visit typically takes between one and two hours on an ordinary house, and more on a big or complicated roof. Everything is inspected as far as it can safely be seen including by drone where it applies. A written report with photos follows. Common reasons to book are damp or stains in top-floor flats and chimney stacks in poor repair, across converted houses, blocks of flats and shared roofs.
Older buildings in small places like Wyck may be listed or in a conservation area. That can affect what materials can be used when work is done, so check with the council before planning anything. A roof report helps you plan work with that in mind. Older materials like clay tiles, slate and stone are often matched when work is done.
The report doesn’t just list problems. It explains what we found, why it matters and what we recommend.

More services for Wyck
Different roofs, different checks
Shared chimney stacks
Shared stacks need everyone involved to agree work, so a clear record helps.
Gutters and downpipes
Gutters are a common source of leaks on blocks. We check gutters, outlets and downpipes where they can be seen.
Useful tips for Wyck property owners
A little preparation and a few simple habits help, both for the survey and for the roof itself. Our tips:
- Keep past survey reports with the building’s records
- Check the loft space can be accessed
- Book gutter clearing at least once a year
- Ask residents to report damp right away
If anything in the report needs explaining, ask us. The Standard Survey includes a follow-up consultation and the Premium Survey an in-person one.
Keep gutters and outlets clear and include any valley or parapet gutters. Many leaks into top flats start with a blocked gutter.
How the survey works
We photograph the roof as we go, so you can see in the report what we found and where. Close-ups come from the safest viewpoint available, including by drone where it is applicable and the weather allows. A typical visit takes about one to two hours for most houses, while a commercial roof takes nearer three to four hours. Cottages and farmhouses around Wyck often have roofs at several levels, with lean-tos and outbuildings attached. We work round each section in turn, from the safest viewpoints.
- We agree which roofs and which parts of the building are included.
- You or your agent arrange access to the loft space and any flats we need to enter.
- We inspect each roof from safe vantage points, the loft space and the roof itself where safe.
- Defects are photographed and their urgency noted.
- You get a written condition report to help plan maintenance.
Preparing for the visit
- Point out any leaks or damp patches
- If you’re buying, check with the agent that we can get in
- Make a note of anything you’d like us to look at

Questions from Wyck
Is Wyck within the area you cover?
Yes, we do. We cover the whole of London and South East England, and smaller places are part of that. Longer journeys are simply planned ahead of time.
Does a conservation area affect roof work in Wyck?
You can check whether a building is listed on Historic England’s list, and your council can tell you if it is 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.
Do you survey on Saturdays and Sundays?
We carry out surveys seven days a week. To find a day that suits you, call 07833 053749 or email us.
Do you look in the loft space?
If the survey needs it and the roof 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.
Do you use drones?
Where it’s 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 it applies.
What insurance do you have?
Our surveys are covered by professional indemnity and public liability insurance. Ask if you need details for a managing agent or building owner.
What access do you need for a block roof survey?
Sometimes, yes. If the loft space or a flat roof is reached through a flat, we need access to it, so residents need notice.
Prices for landlord roof surveys in Wyck
Several things affect the price of a survey:
- How big the roof is
- The package you choose: Basic, Standard or Premium
- Extra roofs, like extensions, dormers or garages
- Chimneys, valleys, parapets and other details
Landlord roof survey starts from £150, including VAT. What you pay depends on the size and height of the roof, how it can be seen safely and the package you choose.
Getting in touch
The more you let us know, the easier it is to price the survey. When you contact us, tell us:
- Any marks or damp showing indoors
- Your postcode, so we can check access and travel
- Pictures from the garden or a window, if you have them
- Anything about access we should know
If you’re buying, it helps to book soon after your offer is accepted, so there’s time to use the report before exchange. For any other survey, just phone 07833 053749 or use the contact form when you are ready.
For landlords and managing agents
We also survey roofs for businesses and commercial landlords. Larger roofs take longer.
Surveys can also be booked by buyers’ agents acting for a client. The report is emailed, so it can go straight to your client.
Roofs, chimneys and gutters in Wyck
Thatch survives on some older buildings in Hampshire’s villages. 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 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.
For landlords with property near Alton station, a dated record of the roof is useful when planning maintenance across a let. If yours is one of the older homes in the streets near Church of St Mary, its roof may have old fixings, lead flashings and chimneys that need a closer look. For site and facilities teams at buildings like Binsted Church of England Primary School, a written record of a large roof helps plan work for the holidays rather than in term time.
