Bierton Roof Survey
A roof condition survey for homes and buildings for Bierton, from an experienced roof surveyor. Every survey comes with a written report and photographs.
- Slipped, cracked or missing slates and tiles

What we do, step by step
Once we have finished looking, we write up our findings as a written report with photos, sent to you by email. As for time on site, it normally takes an hour or two at most homes, rising to roughly 3–4 hours on a commercial building. Somewhere like Bierton needs a little journey planning: let us know about lanes, gates and parking. On the day, we inspect whatever is safely visible, inside and out.
- You pick the package that suits your roof.
- We arrive at the agreed time and talk through any concerns.
- Coverings, ridges, hips, valleys, flashings, chimneys and gutters are inspected and photographed.
- Extra checks are carried out where your package includes them.
- You get a written report with photos and clear recommendations.
Before we arrive

- Unlock side gates and any roof access doors

Roof survey in Bierton
People book a roof survey for all sorts of reasons. 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 ponding, splits or blisters on flat roofs and valley linings that have cracked or split, across natural slate, clay and concrete tiles and lead flashings.
Older buildings in small places like Bierton may be 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. A roof report helps you plan work with that in mind. Where a building is listed, matching the existing roof materials is often expected.
Pictures do a lot of the work in our reports, because a photo of a cracked flashing says more than a paragraph. If something couldn’t be seen safely, the report is clear about it.

Tips from our surveys
Small things make a difference. Our tips:
- Hold on to the report for future surveys
- Gather any paperwork for past roof work
- Mention any flat roofs as well as the main roof
- Mention any damp patches when you book
The recommendations are prioritised by urgency where relevant. Some faults need dealing with soon, while others can wait for planned work. It makes the next steps much clearer.
Keep gutters, valleys and outlets clear of leaves and moss, particularly after autumn. Leave the clearing to a professional. Most overflow damage starts with a blocked gutter.
Checking the roof from ground level
Inside, the loft is a good place to look, with care. Use a torch and stay on the joists or boards, and look for staining, damp timber or daylight coming through.
The one thing to avoid is getting up close. Slates, tiles, flat roofs and rooflights can give way. That’s where a survey comes in.
Why act early in Bierton
Many roofs go years without anyone looking at them closely. Our report gives you a record of how the roof is today, which makes later changes easy to spot. Where a roof is exposed, as many are in small places like Bierton, driving rain gets into any weakness, and damp in older walls is slow to dry out.
Bigger, taller and commercial roofs take more time to survey, so they’re priced to match. The price is confirmed before you book.

Bierton homes and their roofs
An older home may be listed, or stand in a conservation area. To find out, check Historic England’s list and ask the council about conservation areas. In either case, a change of roofing material may need consent. Some villages in Buckinghamshire still have thatched roofs. 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 you run a business near Friars Square, a dated report on the roof is useful for planning and for any lease discussions. For an older house near a landmark such as Church of St James, its roof may have old fixings, lead flashings and chimneys that need a closer look. If you let a flat or house near Aylesbury station, a roof report helps you deal with small faults before they turn into a call from a tenant.

Bierton: your questions answered
Will you come out to Bierton?
Yes, Bierton is covered. Our area covers London and the South East, and smaller places are part of that. Longer journeys are simply planned ahead of time.
Do you survey roofs for landlords with property near Aylesbury station?
Yes, rented property is part of what we cover. Just ring 07833 053749 or drop us an email and let us know about the building, including who will give access on the day.
Will the report say how many years my roof has left?
Not as an exact number, since the fixings, underlay and maintenance all play a part. What we do is explain the roof’s condition and what to deal with first.
How experienced are you?
We have been surveying roofs for over 20 years and have carried out more than 5,000 surveys.
What does a roof survey cost?
Our price is from £150, including VAT. The final figure depends on the roof and the package you choose.
What if it rains on the day?
It can, depending on the survey. Drone flights need calm, dry weather, and thermal imaging works best with a dry roof, little wind and a sunny day beforehand. If the conditions are not right, we will talk to you about another date.
Do you look in the roof space?
If it is needed and safe to reach, yes. We look for staining, damp, daylight and signs of movement.
What we can’t see
To be straight with you, a roof survey has limits:
- Defects hidden under coverings or inside walls without opening up
- An exact number of years the roof has left
- Confirmation of asbestos in soffits or cement sheets
