About our roof survey in Anglefield Corner

There’s no single reason to have a roof surveyed. 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. Typical surveys look at debris building up in roof valleys and leaning or weathered chimney stacks, on flat roofs, natural slate and clay and concrete tiles.

In a village or hamlet like Anglefield Corner, older cottages and farmhouses often sit alongside barns, outbuildings and a few newer houses. Roofs there can be clay tile, slate, stone or thatch, and chimney stacks are frequently old. Each needs checking in its own way, and thatch is a specialist material we report on as far as it can be seen. Chimneys and lead flashings on old roofs often need the most attention.

The Standard Survey adds moisture detection, a structural check and a follow-up consultation. The Premium Survey goes further, with thermal imaging, drone inspection where applicable, structural analysis and an in-person consultation.

Your questions about roof surveys in Anglefield Corner

I let a flat near Godstone station. Can you check the roof?

Yes. We survey roofs for landlords, letting agents and managing agents as well as owners. Just call 07833 053749 or drop us an email with the details, and we’ll talk through which survey suits.

Does a conservation area affect roof work in Anglefield Corner?

We cannot confirm that for you, but Historic England’s list and your council can. A change of roofing material may need consent in either case, and councils can also use Article 4 directions.

What’s covered in a roof inspection?

Slates or tiles, ridges, hips, valleys, flashings, chimneys and gutters are all checked, along with the loft where it’s safe. You get a report with photos and recommendations.

Can you look at a roof that is joined to next door?

Yes, we can. We inspect what the owner gives us access to. If a problem seems to come from next door, we’ll say so.

Do you look in the loft space?

Yes, where the survey calls for it and there is safe access. Inside, we look for damp, staining, gaps and sagging.

How soon is the report ready?

The Premium Survey has a same-day report, Standard 24 to 48 hours and Basic within 48 hours. Each report includes photographs.

Do you use drones?

Yes, where it is applicable. Flights depend on the weather on the day and airspace rules, and we check for restrictions near airports before flying. We are a CAA-registered drone operator.

Anglefield Corner homes and their roofs

Handmade clay tiles and tile-hung walls are typical of Surrey’s older houses. A few of Surrey’s oldest buildings have heavy Horsham stone slab roofs. On roofs like these, good slates or tiles can outlast the nails, battens, lead and mortar around them. Anglefield Corner is about 2 miles from the edge of the flight restriction zone around Redhill Aerodrome. If the drone is used for your survey, we check the exact boundary for the address before flying.

If yours is one of the older homes in the streets near Church of St John the Evanglist, old fixings, lead flashings and tall chimneys are typical of older roofs. If you own a rental within reach of Godstone station, a roof report helps you deal with small faults before they turn into a call from a tenant.

How the survey works

It helps 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. Most visits take about one to two hours on an ordinary house, though large, tall or awkward roofs take more time. For a village or hamlet like Anglefield Corner, the journey is planned in advance: let us know about lanes, gates and parking. On the day, we inspect everything that’s safely in view, inside and out.

  1. You get in touch with the address and anything you’ve noticed.
  2. A visit is booked for a weekday or a weekend.
  3. We look at the roof from every safe viewpoint, inside and out.
  4. Slates or tiles, ridges, hips, valleys, flashings, chimneys and gutters are all examined and photographed.
  5. Your report arrives by email, with recommendations prioritised by urgency.

Getting ready for the survey

  • Show us where any leaks or stains appear
  • Unlock side gates and any roof access doors
  • For flats, make sure roof access has been agreed

Should I look at the roof myself first?

During heavy rain, look at the gutters from the ground or a window. Overflowing water can be a sign of a blockage or a gutter that has dropped.

After heavy rain, check ceilings and the tops of walls for new stains. Take a photo and write down when you saw it.

Why get it checked now?

It’s easier to plan roof work than to react to it. With a report, you can tackle the urgent jobs first and plan the rest, rather than waiting for something to fail. For an older or listed building in a place like Anglefield Corner, repairs may need matching materials and consent, so leaving a defect until it is urgent leaves less time to plan.

Price depends partly on the package: from £150 for Basic, £250 for Standard and £400 for Premium, inc. VAT. The roof’s size, height and access matter as well.

Before and after the survey

Getting the most from a roof survey starts before we arrive and carries on afterwards. Tips:

  • Move stored items away from the loft hatch
  • File the report with your home documents
  • Leave roof access to professionals
  • Have details of recent roof work to hand

Where it helps, we say which items are urgent. Some things need prompt attention, others can be planned for. It makes the next steps much clearer.

Check the loft now and then, with care and a good torch. Look for water marks, damp wood and chinks of light. Take photos of anything that changes.

Different roofs, different checks

Natural slate

From the loft, we look at the underside of a slate roof. Older roofs may have bitumen felt underlay, and very old roofs none, and we note its condition.

Concrete interlocking tiles

Interlocking tiles on shallow roofs depend on their laps and fixings. We look for lifted, cracked or slipped tiles.
