Roof survey in Bagnum
People book a roof survey for all sorts of reasons. Some have seen a mark on a ceiling or bits of tile in the garden, others want a check before selling or after years without one. The approach is the same in each case: we inspect carefully and explain what we see in writing. We survey on weekdays and at weekends, so finding a time is rarely difficult. We survey flat roofs, chimney stacks and ridges, hips and valleys, and the problems we’re asked to look at most are cracked mortar along the ridge and slates or tiles that have slipped or broken.
Some older homes in villages like Bagnum are listed or in a conservation area. That can affect what materials can be used when work is done, so check with the council before planning anything. Knowing the roof’s condition helps you plan ahead with that in mind. Older materials such as clay tiles, slate and stone are often matched when work is done.
Pictures do a lot of the work in our reports, so you can see each defect rather than just read about it. If something couldn’t be seen safely, the report is clear about it.

Common questions in Bagnum
Do you carry out roof surveys in Bagnum?
Yes, Bagnum is within the area we cover. Our area covers London and South East England. Just call 07833 053749 or use the contact form and let us know about the property.
Will you come out to Bagnum?
We do. A small place gets exactly the same survey as a big one.
Is a roof survey the same as a structural survey?
No. Where we see something that needs a structural engineer, the report says so. We do not provide structural calculations.
Can you inspect my roof with a drone?
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.
Can you inspect a terraced or semi-detached roof?
Yes, we can. We inspect what the owner gives us access to. If a problem seems to come from next door, we will say so.
Can you tell me how long my roof will last?
We don’t put a figure on it, since the fixings, underlay and maintenance all play a part. Instead, we set out what’s sound, what’s wearing and what to do first.
I live in a flat. Can you survey the roof?
Yes, if whoever owns or manages the building agrees access. We check the parts we are given access to, and the report makes that clear.
What we’re asked to look at in Bagnum
A blocked gutter does more harm than it looks. Once leaves and moss block a gutter, water spills down the brickwork. Valley and parapet gutters can overflow inside the building.
Look out for signs like these:
- Cracked or blistered flat roof coverings
- Gutters that overflow in heavy rain
- Worn or blocked valleys
- Gaps in the roof where coverings have gone
If you look after a building such as Ringwood School, long gutter runs and wide roofs on a building that size are worth checking on a regular cycle.
What to check before booking

Why it is worth a survey now in Bagnum
A roof that has had no attention for years can surprise you. Our report gives you a record of how the roof is today, which makes later changes easy to spot. Outbuildings and barns around Bagnum are easy to forget, but a failed roof there can spoil what’s stored inside. It is worth including them in a survey before a winter does the damage.
There are three survey packages: the Basic Survey from £150, the Standard Survey from £250 and the Premium Survey from £400, all with VAT included. What your roof costs depends on its size, access and what you want to find out.
Why book us in Bagnum

Tips that help
There is plenty you can do without going near the roof. Here’s what helps most:
- Keep a record of damp patches and dates
- Watch for slipped slates after bad weather
- Mention any flat roofs as well as the main roof
- Don’t climb onto the roof yourself
Standard includes a follow-up consultation to talk the findings through, and the Premium Survey includes an in-person consultation. You can ask us about anything that is not clear.
Have the roof surveyed every few years, and after major storms. Regular checks catch problems while they’re small. Each report gives a record to compare against.
Roof surveys in Bagnum: local notes
About 1.7 miles south-east lies Avon Tyrrell House, a reminder of how long the area around Bagnum has been built on. Older roofs in the wider area can hide decades of patch repairs, so the detail matters. Thatch survives on some older buildings in Hampshire’s villages. Older houses in the South East often have slate or clay tile roofs, while many later estates have concrete tiles. On roofs like these, good slates or tiles can outlast the nails, battens, lead and mortar around them.

How it works
Expect us to ask a few questions before we start, such as when any problem began and what work has been done before. Then the inspection itself takes about 1–2 hours for most homes, depending on how many separate roofs there are. Cottages and farmhouses around Bagnum often have roofs at several levels, with lean-tos and outbuildings attached. Each part is looked at from wherever it can be seen safely, and anything we cannot see is noted.
- You let us know the address, the type of roof and what’s worrying you.
- We agree a date, including weekends if that suits you.
- We check the roof from every safe viewpoint outside.
- We then look in the loft for damp, staining and the condition of the underlay.
- You receive the report with photos and recommendations, prioritised by urgency.
Before the survey
- Leave side gates unlocked
- If you’re buying, check with the agent that we can get in
- Move anything stored under the loft hatch

What a survey costs
Not every roof costs the same to survey, and it comes down to:
- Commercial roofs and larger buildings
- How complicated the roof is, with its valleys, chimneys and parapets
- Extra roofs, like extensions, dormers or garages
- Roof area
One thing that affects the price is 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.
What we need to know
Here’s what helps us most when you get in touch:
- The address and postcode of the property
- Your timetable, such as an exchange date
- Photos of the roof, taken safely from ground level or a window
- Why you want a survey: buying, a leak, a storm or new work
Our price is from £150, including VAT. The exact figure depends on the roof and the package, and you can ring 07833 053749 or send us an email to find out.
For landlords and managing agents
Businesses and commercial landlords can book us too, from shops and offices to industrial units. Larger roofs take longer.
Letting agents can arrange access with tenants. We survey seven days a week, which helps when tenants work during the week.
