How a roof survey works in Blendworth
Our report is written in plain English, not jargon. Each defect is described with photos and a recommendation, and we rank them by urgency where that helps. The Standard Survey adds moisture detection, a structural check and a follow-up consultation. The Premium Survey goes further, with thermal imaging, a drone where applicable and a same-day report. Reports are sent by email. If you’ve noticed leaking gutter joints and downpipes and cracked mortar along the ridge, we can find out what’s behind it.
Older buildings in small places like Blendworth may be listed or in a conservation area. If yours is, re-roofing in different materials may need consent, so the council is the place to check. 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.
The Standard Survey adds moisture detection, a structural check and a follow-up consultation. The Premium Survey adds thermal imaging, drone inspection where it applies, structural analysis and an in-person consultation.

Roof by roof
Concrete interlocking tiles
On low-pitched roofs, the laps and fixings of interlocking tiles matter. Lifted or cracked tiles are noted, particularly at the verges and ridge.
Natural slate
Slate is common on older homes in London and the South East. Where several slates have slipped, the cause is often nail fatigue, and we say how widespread it looks.
FAQs for Blendworth
Is Blendworth within the area you cover?
Yes, smaller places are covered as well as towns. We cover the whole of London and South East England. Let us know about access, parking and anything unusual about getting there as you book.
Do you survey roofs for landlords with property near Rowlands Castle station?
Yes, that’s a common request. Let us know whether a tenant or an agent will let us in, and the report can go straight to you or your agent.
Do you test for asbestos?
No. We don’t carry out asbestos surveys or testing. Where materials might contain it, we say so in the report and recommend a specialist asbestos surveyor checks them before they’re disturbed.
What does a roof survey include?
All the main parts of the roof: the slates or tiles, ridges, valleys, flashings, chimneys, gutters and roof space. Standard adds moisture detection and a structural check, and Premium adds thermal imaging and a drone where it applies.
What does a roof survey cost?
Roof survey starts from £150, including VAT. The final figure depends on the roof and the package you choose, and it’s agreed before booking.
How do I arrange a roof survey in Blendworth?
Just call 07833 053749 or drop us an email with the address. We’ll ask a few questions, confirm the price and agree a date, weekday or weekend.
Do you survey on Saturdays and Sundays?
Visits run seven days a week in the daytime, which suits people who work during the week. Just say which days work for you.
Signs you need a roof survey in Blendworth
A blocked gutter does more harm than it looks. Leaves, moss and silt build up, the gutter overflows and water soaks the walls. Hidden gutters behind parapets and in valleys can send water indoors.
Signs worth acting on include:
- Ponding, splits or blisters on flat roofs
- Ridge tiles that have lifted or moved
- Slates or tiles that have slipped or broken
- Lifted, split or missing lead flashings
If you live in an older home near Church of the Holy Trinity, the nails, lead and mortar on the roof may be wearing out even where the slates or tiles look fine.

The survey normally takes about 1–2 hours for most homes, depending on how many separate roofs there are. Around Blendworth, older homes can have small or awkward roof spaces, so tell us about the loft hatch and any ladder. We only go where it is safe.

Advice
What this survey cannot tell you
No survey can tell you everything, and we’d rather be clear about that before you book. Keep these in mind:
- Asbestos testing of any kind
- Defects hidden under coverings or inside walls without opening up
- An exact number of years the roof has left
If in doubt, call 07833 053749 or drop us an email and we will suggest the right survey before you book. The full list of what we check.
Roofs we survey in Blendworth
- The roof space
- Chimney stacks
- Natural slate
- Flat roofs
- Lead flashings
- Clay and concrete tiles
- Ridges, hips and valleys
Should I look at the roof myself first?
The one thing to avoid is getting up close. Roofs are fragile and slippery, and a fall can be serious. That part is for a survey, using safe viewpoints and a drone where it applies.
Watch the gutters in a downpour, from a window or the ground. Water spilling over the edge can be a sign of a blockage or a gutter that has dropped.
Roof surveys in Blendworth: local notes
The coast is about 5 miles or less from Blendworth, where sea air brings more salt and stronger wind than inland. Metal fixings and flashings corrode faster in salt air, while gales work at loose ridges, slates and tiles, and driving rain gets into whatever gap is left. Thatch survives on some older buildings in Hampshire’s villages. In this part of the South East, older roofs are mostly slate or clay tile and many newer ones concrete tile. Whatever the covering, it is often the fixings, flashings, valleys and gutters that give out first.
Uppark lies about 4.8 miles north-east, so building around Blendworth goes back a long way. Older homes in the area may have roofs that need matching materials when work is done. For landlords with property near Rowlands Castle station, knowing the condition of the roof, chimneys and gutters helps you plan work rather than react to complaints.

Where a roof is exposed, as many are in small places like Blendworth, driving rain gets into any weakness, and damp in older walls is slow to dry out.
