Our roof survey service in GU27
Our report is written in plain English, not jargon. Every issue comes with photos and a written recommendation, and where it’s relevant we say what’s urgent and what can wait. The Standard Survey adds moisture detection, a structural check and a follow-up consultation. Premium adds thermal imaging, a drone inspection where applicable and a same-day report. Reports are sent by email. Typical surveys look at crumbling chimney pointing or cracked flaunching and water stains on rafters and ceiling joists, on lead flashings, flat roofs and chimney stacks.
The visit typically starts outside and finishes in the loft: first the slopes, edges and gutters from every safe viewpoint, then the loft space where it can be reached. All told, expect between one and two hours for most homes, depending on how many separate roofs there are.
- We start by hearing what you’d like checked and why.
- We arrange a day that suits you, including weekends.
- The roof is inspected from ground level, windows, the loft and the roof itself where it is safe.
- We check the coverings, ridges, hips, valleys, flashings, chimneys and gutters, and photograph what we find.
- We email a report with photos and recommendations.

Roofs, chimneys and gutters across GU27
In GU27, our roof surveys work takes in owners, landlords and managing agents, in Haslemere, Shottermill and Fernhurst and well beyond. Each report sets out what was seen, with photos and recommendations.
London and South East England mix slate and clay tile roofs on older homes with concrete tiles on many later ones, and flat-roofed extensions and dormers are common everywhere. Each roof in GU27 is checked with its age and materials in mind.
Haslemere: Take an older house close to Church of St Christopher: old fixings, lead flashings and tall chimneys are typical of older roofs. If you look after a building such as Shottermill Infant School, large buildings have long gutter runs and big roofs that need checking like any other.
Practical tips
Small things make a difference. Our tips:
- Keep the report with your property records
- Don’t climb onto the roof yourself
- Check we can open the loft hatch
- Keep a record of damp patches and dates
The recommendations are prioritised by urgency where relevant. Some faults need dealing with soon, while others can wait for planned work. It makes the next steps much clearer.
Check the loft now and then, with care and a good torch. Watch for stains, damp timbers and daylight through the roof. Photograph anything new.
Rented homes, blocks and businesses
Any of our surveys can be booked by landlords, agents and building managers in GU27. To discuss a property or a block, ring 07833 053749 or use the contact form.
Businesses and commercial landlords can book us too, including offices, shops and units. Bigger roofs take more time.
How we price roof surveys
Not every roof costs the same to survey, and it comes down to:
- Features like valleys, chimneys, dormers and parapets
- Commercial roofs and larger buildings
- The height of the building and how the roof can be seen safely
- Whether thermal imaging or a drone is needed
To find out what your survey will cost, call 07833 053749 or use the contact form with the address and a few details. The price is agreed before a date is set.
What to tell us when you get in touch
A little information up front helps. It is useful to include:
- Your timetable, such as an exchange date
- What made you get in touch
- How the loft is reached, if there is one
- Any photos you have, taken from the ground or a window
Not sure which survey you need? The easiest way is to ring 07833 053749 or use the contact form and describe the roof and what’s worrying you. We’ll talk you through the options and what they cost.
What we’re asked to look at in GU27
Flashings seal the joints where a roof meets a wall or chimney. Over time lead flashings split, lift or work loose, and mortar fillets crack. Lead is also a target for theft.
Look out for signs like these:
- Worn or blocked valleys
- Worn lead at chimneys and abutments
- Torn or sagging underlay
- Crumbling chimney pointing or cracked flaunching
What you can safely check yourself
The one thing to avoid is getting up close. Slates, tiles, flat roofs and rooflights can give way, and a fall can be serious. That’s where a survey comes in, using safe viewpoints and a drone where it applies.
After heavy rain, check ceilings and the tops of walls for new stains. Take a photo and write down when you saw it, as it helps a surveyor trace the cause.
Your questions about roof surveys in GU27
Do you cover GU27?
Yes. We carry out roof surveys in GU27, and the service is the same as everywhere else we work.
When will the report arrive?
It depends on the package: within 48 hours for Basic, 24 to 48 hours for Standard and the same day for Premium. We send it by email.
What insurance do you have?
Our cover is professional indemnity plus public liability.
Is it the same as a RICS Level 2 or Level 3 survey?
No. Our survey looks at the roof, not the whole building. For the rest of the building, a RICS home survey is a separate job.
Can you inspect a terraced or semi-detached roof?
Yes. We inspect what the owner gives us access to. If a problem seems to come from next door, we’ll say so.
How do I arrange a roof survey in GU27?
The quickest way is to ring 07833 053749 or drop us an email. Give us the address and a few details about the roof, and we’ll take it from there. Surveys run on weekdays and at weekends.
Do you need to get into the loft?
If it’s needed and safe to reach, yes. We look for staining, damp, daylight and signs of movement.
