Roof survey in Anmore, Hampshire
Get a clear view of the roof at a property in Anmore. Visits run on weekdays and weekends, in the daytime.
- Leaning or weathered chimney stacks
- Gutters that overflow in heavy rain
- Worn or blocked valleys
Leave it or get it looked at?
Valley gutters and parapet gutters are out of sight until they overflow. An overflow there sends water indoors. A survey checks them while they’re still dry. Older cottages and farmhouses around Anmore can have roof timbers that have been there a very long time, and water through a failed covering can rot timber if it is left.
Simple, low roofs take less time to survey than tall or complicated ones, and the package you pick makes a difference too. The price is always agreed first.
Why us?
- Clear package prices, inc. VAT
- An independent look at the roof
- Professional indemnity and public liability insurance
- Weekday and weekend surveys

Roof surveys for homes and businesses in Anmore
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 frequently fail first. We tell you which parts are ageing and which are sound. Knowing that helps you plan work before it becomes urgent. We survey flat roofs, ridges, hips and valleys and chimney stacks, and common reasons people get in touch are slates or tiles that have slipped or broken and ponding, splits or blisters on flat roofs.
In a small place like Anmore, many roofs stand in the open, so ridges, chimney stacks, flashings and gutters work hard. Damp in old walls is slow to dry, so a small leak can do a lot of harm. A roof report shows what needs attention first. On exposed older roofs, chimneys and lead flashings are often the first to give way.
It isn’t only a list of defects. For each finding, it explains what it is, why it matters and what we’d recommend.

Useful tips for Anmore property owners
From years of surveys, a few habits stand out as worth the effort:
- Leave roof access to professionals
- File the report with your home documents
- Tell us about any leaks or stains you’ve seen
- Photograph stains when they appear
Your report arrives by email. Basic reports come within 48 hours, Standard within 24 to 48 hours and Premium the same day. Findings are explained in plain words.
Look at your roof from the ground after strong winds. Fragments of slate or tile on the ground mean something has shifted. Getting small faults fixed quickly keeps water out.

What else we do in Anmore
Landlords, agents and block managers in Anmore
Where a roof is shared: we need access agreed with the freeholder or managing agent. Tell us about it when you book and we will plan the survey around it.
Businesses and commercial landlords can book us too, from shops and offices to industrial units. Bigger roofs take more time, and they’re priced for the size.
Different roofs, different checks
Lead flashings and valleys
Lead-lined valleys and gutters are common on older homes. Worn or split lead lets water straight in, and lead is a target for theft.
Flat roof coverings
Some flat roofs have been coated over several times. If the covering would need opening up to know more, we say so.
How it works
Before we start, tell us why you’ve booked: a purchase, a leak, a storm, new work or simply peace of mind. That way we can focus on what matters to you. The visit typically takes roughly 1–2 hours on an ordinary house, or half a day or so for a commercial building. Rural addresses near Anmore can be hard to find from a postcode alone, so a few directions, or a note of a nearby landmark, help us arrive on time. After that, the survey runs as it would anywhere.
- We start by hearing what you’d like checked and why.
- We agree a date, on a weekday, Saturday or Sunday.
- 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.
- You receive a written report with photos and recommendations.
Getting ready for the survey
- Let us know about parking before the day
- Have any paperwork from past roof work to hand
- If you’re buying, check with the agent that we can get in
Getting a price

What a roof survey looks like in Anmore
Anmore is within about 4 miles of the coast, where wind off the sea can be strong. A small drone cannot fly safely in strong wind or heavy rain, so the weather on the day decides whether a flight goes ahead. If the drone is used for your survey, we check the Drone Safety Map for restrictions before flying.
If you let a flat or house near Bedhampton station, a roof report helps you deal with small faults before they turn into a call from a tenant. Take a building like Denmead Infant School: its roofs, gutters and any chimneys need the same checks as a house’s, just on a bigger scale.
