Our roof survey service in GU20
A roof survey tells you what condition your roof is in, before small faults become big ones. Slates or tiles, ridges, hips, valleys, flashings, chimneys and gutters are all checked, along with the loft where it’s safe to get in. You get a written report with photographs and recommendations. Where it’s relevant, the recommendations are prioritised by urgency. We survey flat roofs, ridges, hips and valleys and chimney stacks, and the problems we are asked to look at most are ponding, splits or blisters on flat roofs and leaking gutter joints and downpipes.
Every roof is different; as a rough guide, the survey takes roughly 1–2 hours for most homes, depending on how many separate roofs there are. If you have questions on the day, just ask.
- We start with the property details and any concerns.
- A visit is booked for a weekday, Saturday or Sunday.
- Outside, we inspect from the ground, windows and other safe vantage points, and from the roof where safe.
- Inside, we check the loft space where there is safe access.
- We email a report with photographs and recommendations.

Roofs, chimneys and gutters across GU20
In GU20, our roof surveys work takes in owners, landlords and managing agents, in Windlesham and well beyond. Every report comes with photos and written recommendations.
Even in the South East, autumn and winter storms find any loose slate, tile or ridge. In GU20, as elsewhere, exposed details are where damage shows first.
Windlesham: If you let a flat or house near Bagshot station, knowing the condition of the roof, chimneys and gutters helps you plan work rather than react to complaints. The streets around a church such as Church of St John the Baptist are frequently among the oldest in a place, and if your house is among the older ones nearby, its chimney, valleys and lead work are likely to be the parts that need attention first.
Tips that help
From years of surveys, a few habits stand out:
- Clear the loft hatch area before we arrive
- Do not climb onto the roof yourself
- File the report with your home documents
- Let us know about any leaks or stains you’ve seen
We email the report to you, with photos of what we found. Turnaround is within 48 hours for Basic, 24 to 48 hours for Standard and the same day for Premium. Findings are explained in plain words.
Plan a roof survey every few years, or sooner after severe weather. Routine surveys pick up wear before it leaks. Compare each report with the last.
What affects the price in GU20
Not every roof costs the same to survey, for these reasons:
- Height and safe access
- Whether you choose the Basic, Standard or Premium Survey
- How big the roof is
- The shape of the roof and its details
For a price for your roof in GU20, ring 07833 053749 or email us with the address and some details. We will confirm the figure before booking.
Getting in touch
Before you get in touch, it’s useful to have:
- Any photos you have, taken from the ground or a window
- Any stains, drips or damp patches you’ve seen indoors
- The address and postcode of the property
- Anything about access we should know
We survey roofs on weekdays, Saturdays and Sundays. To find a date that works for you, call 07833 053749 or email us.
For landlords and managing agents
We survey roofs for landlords and letting agents as well as householders. A written report with photos gives you a clear record of the roof, useful for planning maintenance.
Letting agents can arrange access with tenants, at a time agreed ahead of time. We survey on any day of the week, which can make access easier.
What happens if roof problems are left?
Roof faults rarely stay the same size. A single gap lets water onto the timbers underneath, and wet timber starts to decay. Finding it early keeps the work smaller.
Questions to ask before booking
- What’s outside the scope of the survey
- Their track record with similar roofs
- How they plan to inspect the roof safely
- What exactly goes into their report
Signs you need a roof survey
A blocked gutter does more harm than it looks. Once leaves and moss block a gutter, water spills down the brickwork. Valley and parapet gutters can overflow inside the building, particularly near trees.
A survey can pick up problems such as:
- Valley linings that have cracked or split
- Standing water on a flat roof
- Lifted, split or missing lead flashings
- Gutters that overflow in heavy rain
GU20: your questions answered
What does a roof survey include?
Slates or tiles, ridges, hips, valleys, flashings, chimneys and gutters are all checked, plus the loft space where there is safe access. You get a written report with photographs and recommendations.
Do I have to be there for the survey?
Not necessarily. An outside-only look can be arranged beforehand, but anything inside needs someone there to give access.
How experienced are you?
More than 5,000 surveys over 20+ years.
Do you need to get into the loft?
If there is a loft and safe access to it, yes. The roof space can show things the outside can’t, such as damp timbers, staining or daylight.
What’s the best way to book?
To book, phone 07833 053749 or send us an email and let us know the address and what you need to know. We will confirm the price and find a day that suits.
Is this a RICS survey?
No. We’re experienced roof surveyors, and our survey covers the roof rather than the whole building. For the rest of the building, a RICS home survey is a separate job.
Do you use drones?
Yes, where it is applicable. Our sub-250g drone is flown by a CAA-registered operator with a Flyer ID and Operator ID, and the airspace and weather are checked before every flight.
