Roof surveys across KT23: what to expect
People book a roof survey for all sorts of reasons. Some have spotted a stain or a slipped slate, others want a check before selling or after years without one. The approach is the same in each case: a careful look, then a clear written report. We survey on weekdays and at weekends, so finding a time is rarely difficult. We survey lead flashings, the roof space and ridges, hips and valleys, and people most often book us about standing water on a flat roof and debris building up in roof valleys.
When we arrive, we begin with a quick chat about the roof and anything that’s worrying you. After that, we check everything we can see safely. The survey typically takes about 1–2 hours for a house, and about three to four hours for a commercial roof.
- You get in touch with the address and anything you’ve noticed.
- We arrange a day that suits you, including weekends.
- We inspect from ground level, from windows, from the loft space and from the roof where safe.
- Every part of the roof is checked and photographed.
- You receive a written report with photos and recommendations.

Roof surveys across KT23: local notes
Homes across KT23 range from older properties with chimneys and lead flashings to newer houses with concrete tiles. Sooner or later, every roof needs its gutters, flashings and coverings checked, wherever they are in KT23.
Our area takes in slate-roofed London terraces, clay-tiled Weald houses, Essex weatherboarding and post-war new towns. KT23 is part of that mix.
Great Bookham: Homes near green spaces such as River Mole LNR can get more leaves in their gutters in autumn, so outlets and downpipes are worth watching. Landlords with a home close to Bookham station may find that knowing the condition of the roof, chimneys and gutters helps you plan work rather than react to complaints.
How we price roof surveys
To price your survey, we check:
- The height of the building and how the roof can be seen safely
- Chimneys, valleys, parapets and other details
- Whether it’s a home or a commercial building
- Basic, Standard or Premium
Larger roofs, taller buildings and commercial roofs take longer, so the price reflects that. The price is confirmed before you book.
What we need to know
Here’s what helps us most when you get in touch:
- Whether there is a loft hatch, a shared roof or tricky access
- The style of property, from a terrace to a block
- The property’s address and postcode
- Any stains, drips or damp patches you’ve seen indoors
A quick phone call is typically the easiest start: ring 07833 053749 or email us, and we will ask about the building and what you need. The price is agreed before a date is set.
Tips from our surveys
Nothing here needs a ladder. Our suggestions:
- Let us know about any leaks or stains you’ve seen
- Leave roof access to professionals
- Keep the report with your property records
- Clear the loft hatch area before we arrive
Premium comes with a follow-up after 12 months. It helps you see whether anything has changed.
Keep the loft space ventilated. Condensation builds up when air can’t move, and it can wet timbers and insulation. Make sure insulation doesn’t block the airflow at the eaves.
Landlords, agents and block managers in KT23
For a freeholder or residents’ company, a roof report is a sound basis for a maintenance plan, putting the urgent items at the top.
An agent can book and manage the survey for a landlord, and the report can go to both. We agree a time with the tenant beforehand.
Can I check my roof myself?
During heavy rain, look at the gutters from ground level or a window. Overflowing water can point to a blockage or a sagging run.
What you cannot do safely is get up close. Roofs are fragile and slippery, and a fall can be serious. That part is for a survey.
What happens if roof problems are left?
If you’re planning to sell, a roof survey can help you prepare. You’ll know what a buyer’s survey might pick up.
Questions to ask before booking
- What the report includes, and whether it has photographs
- Is there a chance to talk the report through?
- If they fly a drone, whether they hold a CAA Flyer ID and Operator ID
- How they plan to inspect the roof safely
Questions from KT23
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 cannot, such as damp timbers, staining or daylight.
When will the report arrive?
That depends on which survey you choose: Basic within 48 hours, Standard within 24 to 48 hours and Premium the same day. It’s emailed to you.
Do I have to be there for the survey?
Not necessarily. If we only need the outside, we can agree that beforehand, but the loft and any rooms with damp need someone to let us in.
What does a roof survey cost?
Prices start from £150, including VAT. Our three packages are Basic from £150, Standard from £250 and Premium from £400, inc. VAT.
Is KT23 in your area?
Yes. KT23 is part of the area we cover.
How experienced are you?
We’ve completed more than 5,000 surveys, over more than 20 years, and 98% of clients are satisfied.
Do you use drones?
Where it helps and the rules allow, yes. Our sub-250g drone is flown by a CAA-registered operator with a Flyer ID and Operator ID, and every flight depends on the airspace and the weather.
