What this survey can’t tell you

- Defects hidden under coverings or inside walls without opening up
- A full building survey of the property
- Asbestos testing of any kind
If in doubt, phone 07833 053749 or send us an email and we’ll recommend the right survey. What our survey covers.

Roof survey in Badger Farm
Our roof surveys cover Badger Farm and the wider South East. We carry out surveys on weekdays and at weekends. We’re insured for professional indemnity and public liability. Each survey ends with a written report, emailed with photos and recommendations. Whether it is a house, a flat or a commercial building, the process is the same. To arrange a survey, phone 07833 053749 or email us. If you’ve noticed gaps in the roof where coverings have gone and ridge tiles that have lifted or moved, a survey will tell you what’s going on, on natural slate, clay and concrete tiles and the roof space alike.
Houses in smaller places like Badger Farm can face open ground, where wind and driving rain hit the roof harder. Ridge tiles, verges, chimney stacks and flashings take the worst of it. Checking those edges shows whether anything has begun to work loose before it lets water in. A loose ridge tile or slate gives the wind something to catch, and others soon follow.
The written findings come by email, easy to pass on to a roofer, an agent or an insurer. Basic reports come within 48 hours, Standard within 24–48 hours and Premium on the day.

How the survey changes by roof type
Chimney stacks
We check the pots, flaunching, pointing and flashings of each stack, as far as we can safely see them. We note any lean or loose pots.
Natural slate
Slate is one of the most durable roof coverings, yet the nails holding it often fail long before the slate. We check for slipped, cracked and missing slates, and for clips that show past repairs.
Leave it or get it looked at?
It is easier to plan roof work than to react to it. A survey lets you deal with things in order of urgency, rather than calling someone out after a storm. With lower homes, common in places like Badger Farm, there is little between a roof defect and the ceiling, so a small leak can mark a ceiling within a few storms. Catching the cause first saves redecorating as well.
One thing that affects the price is the package: Basic from £150, Standard from £250 or Premium from £400, all including VAT. Size, height and access can affect the price too.

What happens on the day
After the inspection, everything we found is written up as a photo-illustrated written report, emailed to you. On timing, most surveys take roughly 1–2 hours for most homes, depending on how many separate roofs there are. For a survey in Badger Farm, we agree the time, the access and parking before the day. Weekday and weekend visits are both possible. If there are outbuildings or garages you want looked at, mention them.
- We start with the property details and any concerns.
- A visit is booked for a weekday, Saturday or Sunday.
- Outside, we inspect from ground level, windows and other safe vantage points, and from the roof where safe.
- Inside, we check the loft space where there is safe access.
- We email a written report with photos and recommendations.
Before we arrive
- Move anything stored under the loft hatch
- If you’re buying, check with the agent that we can get in
- Gather any invoices or paperwork from past roof work
How to book
Most bookings start with a short call: ring 07833 053749 or send us an email and we’ll ask a few questions about the roof. You will have a price before anything is arranged.

What affects the cost of roof surveys
When we price a survey, we consider:
- How many separate roofs there are, like extensions, dormers and garages
- Features like valleys, chimneys, dormers and parapets
- Whether thermal imaging or a drone is needed
- How tall the building is and how easy the roof is to see
The cost of a survey depends on the roof: its size, its height, how many sections it has and how safely it can be seen. Roof survey starts from £150, including VAT.
Helping us price your survey
There is no need for technical words. It’s enough to tell us:
- Access details, like a loft hatch or a shared roof
- Where water is showing inside, if it is
- The property’s address and postcode
- What made you get in touch
If you are buying, it helps to book soon after your offer is accepted, so you have the findings in time to act on them before you exchange. Otherwise, simply call 07833 053749 or send us an email whenever suits you.

Roof surveys around Badger Farm
A number of Hampshire villages keep thatched roofs on their older buildings. Across the South East, older homes tend to have slate or clay tiles, and many later ones concrete tiles. Each of these coverings has its own weak points, from fixings and valleys to flashings, chimneys and gutters. If your survey includes the drone, we check the Drone Safety Map for restrictions before flying.
If your home is one of the older ones in the streets near Saint Luke, its roof may have old fixings, lead flashings and chimneys that need a closer look. Take a building like Stanmore Primary School: large buildings have long gutter runs and big roofs that need checking like any other. Trees in and around St. Cross Park shed leaves that can end up in nearby gutters, so outlets and downpipes are worth watching.

Questions from Badger Farm
Is my home in Badger Farm listed or in a conservation area?
Check Historic England’s online list first, then ask the council about conservation areas and any Article 4 direction. The answer matters most when a change of material is on the cards.
Do you survey roofs for landlords with property near Winchester station?
Yes, letting agents and landlords book with us as well as owners. You can ring 07833 053749 or send us an email with the address and a few details.
Can you look at a roof that is joined to next door?
Yes, we can. We inspect what the owner gives us access to. Where a defect looks to be on the neighbour’s side, the report says so.
How experienced are you?
More than 5,000 surveys over 20+ years.
Is Badger Farm in your area?
Yes. We carry out roof surveys in Badger Farm, and the service is the same as everywhere else we work.
Is it the same as a RICS Level 2 or Level 3 survey?
No. We are experienced roof surveyors, and our survey covers the roof rather than the whole building. If you need a full building survey, you’ll need a RICS survey as well.
Do you give a life expectancy for the roof?
We do not give a number of years. The report explains the condition of each part and the signs of wear, and we say what needs attention and how urgently.
