Our roof survey service in MK6
Roof coverings last a long time, but not for ever. Natural slate can last 100 years or more, and clay and concrete tiles commonly 50 years or more, yet nails, battens and underlay often fail first. We tell you which parts are ageing and which are sound. That lets you plan work in good time rather than after a leak. Typical surveys look at ponding, splits or blisters on flat roofs and lifted, split or missing lead flashings, across natural slate, chimney stacks and ridges, hips and valleys.
It is useful to start with what’s prompted the survey: buying, a leak, storm damage, new work or just wanting to know where things stand. It helps us focus on what matters most to you. The visit normally takes about 1–2 hours for most homes, depending on how many separate roofs there are.
- We help you choose a Basic, Standard or Premium Survey.
- We arrive at the agreed time and talk through any concerns.
- We inspect and photograph every part of the roof we can safely see.
- Moisture detection, a structural check, thermal imaging or a drone are added where your package includes them.
- The report is emailed with findings and recommendations.
How our prices work
We offer three survey packages: Basic from £150, Standard from £250 and Premium from £400, all including VAT. What your roof costs depends on its size, access and what you want to find out.

Around Woolstone
Locally, jobs take us to homes and businesses close to Campbell Park, Milton Keynes Academy and Shepherdswell Academy and the streets around them. Other local landmarks include Gyosei International School UK (0.9 miles north) and The Barge Inn (less than half a mile north-west). Woolstone’s nearest station is Milton Keynes Central station, roughly 2.2 miles west of the centre. A little further out are National Film and Sci-Fi Museum (1.3 miles west) and Bradwell Motte (2.6 miles west). For a walk, there’s Willen Lake and Blue Lagoon Park.
Roof surveys across MK6: local notes
Older homes across MK6 often keep chimney stacks long after the fires went out, and their flashings and pointing need checking like any other part of the roof. Gutters, valleys and fixings come next.
Our area covers London and the South East, including MK6. Housing here runs from Victorian and Edwardian terraces to post-war new towns and modern estates.
Woolstone: Living close to Campbell Park is pleasant, but mature trees mean leaves in gutters and valleys each autumn, and an overflowing gutter soon means a wet wall. For businesses in and around places like Central Milton Keynes Shopping Centre, a written record of the roof’s condition helps you plan maintenance rather than react to leaks.
How we price roof surveys
When we price a survey, we consider:
- Commercial roofs and larger buildings
- The size of the roof
- Extensions, dormers and garages with roofs of their own
- Which survey package you book
A Basic Survey starts from £150, inc. VAT. Standard is from £250 and Premium from £400, both with VAT included. We confirm the price for your survey before you book.
What we need to know
If you can, have these to hand when you get in touch:
- Any marks or damp showing indoors
- What made you get in touch
- Pictures of the roof from a safe spot, if you have them
- Your timetable, like an exchange date
Our phone lines are open seven days a week, including Saturdays and Sundays. For a price or to book, phone 07833 053749 or email us.
Before and after the survey
Nothing here needs a ladder. A few suggestions:
- Leave roof access to professionals
- Take photos of any leaks as they happen
- Find records of any re-roofing or repairs
- Make sure we can open the loft hatch
With the Standard Survey you get a follow-up consultation, while Premium includes a consultation in person. You can ask us about anything that is not clear.
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.
Surveys for landlords and agents in MK6
Any of our surveys can be booked by landlords, agents and building managers in MK6. To discuss a property or a block, call 07833 053749 or send us an email.
For blocks of flats, a roof survey helps managing agents and residents’ management companies plan ahead. The report sets out what needs attention now and what can wait, which helps with budgets and planning.
Checking the roof from ground level
What you can’t do safely is get up close. Roofs are fragile and slippery, and a fall can be serious. That is where a survey comes in.
Watch the gutters in a downpour, from a window or the ground. Water spilling over the edge can point to a blockage or a sagging run.
When you need someone else
It’s a careful look at the roof, not the whole story. Its limits include:
- What’s under the slates, tiles or felt
- A full building survey of the property
- A structural engineer’s report
MK6 questions
How do I book a survey in MK6?
To book, ring 07833 053749 or drop us an email and tell us the address and what you’d like to know. We will confirm the price and agree a day with you.
Does someone need to be in?
Someone needs to let us in if we’re looking inside or in the loft. We’ll talk about access when booking.
Can you survey at the weekend?
We carry out surveys on weekdays, Saturdays and Sundays. To find a day that suits you, ring 07833 053749 or send us an email.
Can you tell me how long my roof will last?
We do not put a figure on it, because so much depends on the fixings, underlay and upkeep. Instead, we set out what’s sound, what’s wearing and what to do first.
How much is a survey?
Roof survey starts from £150, including VAT. What you pay for your roof depends on its size, height, access and the package, confirmed before anything is booked.
How long have you been surveying roofs?
Over 20 years and more than 5,000 surveys.
Does the weather affect the survey?
It can, depending on the survey. Drones cannot fly safely in high wind or heavy rain, and thermal imaging works best after a sunny day, with a dry roof and little wind. If the conditions are not right, we will talk to you about another date.
