We survey roofs in Bagshot and across London and South East England. We carry out surveys on weekdays and at weekends. We hold professional indemnity and public liability insurance, and bring 20+ years’ experience. Each survey ends with a written report, emailed with photos and recommendations. Houses, flats and commercial buildings all follow the same careful process. To arrange a survey, ring 07833 053749 or use the contact form. Typical surveys look at ponding, splits or blisters on flat roofs and worn or blocked valleys, across flat roofs, chimney stacks and ridges, hips and valleys.
In a smaller place like Bagshot, homes range from older cottages to bungalows and newer houses. Coverings range from slate and clay tiles on older homes to concrete tiles on many later ones. Chimneys, valleys and gutters on older homes often need the most attention. Nails and battens under older coverings frequently give out before the slates or tiles themselves.
The report is written in plain words, so it makes sense without any roofing background. Photographs show what each point refers to, with the urgent items made clear.

Roof surveys in Bagshot: local notes
What can be done to an older roof may depend on listing or a conservation area. The council is the place to check, along with Historic England’s list, before anyone quotes for re-roofing. Where the drone is part of the survey, the flight is checked against the Drone Safety Map first.
If you own a rental within reach of Bagshot station, a roof report between tenancies helps plan work before a small defect becomes a tenant’s leak. If you live in an older home near The Brook Church, its chimney, valleys and lead work are likely to be the parts that need attention first.

Bagshot: your questions answered
Can a landlord with a rental near Bagshot station book a roof survey?
Yes, rented property is part of what we cover. Just ring 07833 053749 or email us and tell us about the building.
Is my home in Bagshot listed or in a conservation area?
Start with Historic England’s list for listing and your council for conservation areas. It’s worth checking before planning roof work, as both can affect what’s allowed.
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. The report includes photos and recommendations.
How much is a survey?
Our price is from £150, including VAT. The final figure depends on the roof and the package you choose, and it is agreed before booking.
Can you survey at the weekend?
Surveys can be booked for any day of the week: weekdays, Saturdays and Sundays. Just let us know the days that suit you.
Do you survey roofs on blocks of flats?
Yes. Shared roofs just need a little more planning. Tell us about it as you book and we’ll explain what’s needed.
What insurance do you have?
Our surveys are covered by professional indemnity and public liability insurance. Ask if you need details for a managing agent or building owner.

What else we do in Bagshot
What happens if roof problems are left?
Leaks rarely show up right away. Damp spreads through insulation and timber before anything shows below. A survey can pick up the early signs from the loft. In a smaller place like Bagshot, wherever a roof is exposed, a loose ridge or flashing doesn’t stay loose for long. Wind gets under it and lifts more, and water follows.
Price depends partly on the package: from £150 for Basic, £250 for Standard and £400 for Premium, with VAT included. The roof’s size, height and access matter as well.
Why book us in Bagshot

What affects the price in Bagshot
What a survey costs depends on the time and equipment it needs. That comes down to:
- The roof’s overall size
- Whether thermal imaging or a drone is needed
- Extensions, dormers and garages with roofs of their own
- Features like valleys, chimneys, dormers and parapets
We offer three survey packages: the Basic Survey from £150, the Standard Survey from £250 and the Premium Survey from £400, with VAT included. The price for your roof depends on its size, access and what you need to know.
Helping us price your survey
There is no need for technical words. It’s enough to tell us:
- Your postcode, so we can check access and travel
- Dates you are working to, such as exchange
- Access details, such as a loft hatch or a shared roof
- The reason for the survey, such as buying, a leak or storm damage
Unsure which package suits your roof? The easiest way is to call 07833 053749 or send us an email and describe the roof and what’s worrying you. We will explain the options and the price.
What we do, step by step
When we arrive, we begin with a quick chat about the roof and anything that is worrying you. After that, we look at everything we can see safely. The survey usually takes about 1–2 hours for an ordinary house roof, and longer if there are extensions, dormers or several chimneys. Being in a smaller place like Bagshot does not change how the visit works: we look from ground level, from windows, from the loft and from the roof where it’s safe. It is useful to show us anything you’ve already noticed.
- You pick the package that suits your roof.
- On the day, we start by hearing what you’ve noticed.
- Coverings, ridges, hips, valleys, flashings, chimneys and gutters are inspected and photographed.
- 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.
Getting ready for the survey
- If it is not your property yet, arrange access through the agent
- Jot down any questions you want answered
- Check the loft hatch can be reached
Getting a price
Buyers should book once an offer has been accepted, so there is time to use the report before exchange. For any other survey, just ring 07833 053749 or email us when you’re ready.
Advice
Signs you need a roof survey in Bagshot
The coverings are rarely the first thing to fail. On slate roofs, corroded nails let slates slip, which is known as ‘nail fatigue’. On tiled roofs, the battens or pegs may be what’s gone.
Signs worth acting on include:
- Loose chimney pots
- Standing water on a flat roof
- Worn or blocked valleys
- Flashings that have come away from the wall
If you live near a park such as Bagshot Park, or anywhere with mature trees, autumn leaves can block gutters and valleys, so outlets and downpipes are worth watching.
Choosing a roof surveyor
- Their insurance cover
- When you’ll get the report
- Is there a chance to talk the report through?
- Is VAT included in the price?
