About our roof survey in Broxhill
There’s no single reason to have a roof surveyed. Some have spotted a stain or a slipped slate, while others just want to know where they stand. 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. Typical surveys look at cracked or blistered flat roof coverings and slates or tiles that have slipped or broken, across ridges, hips and valleys, natural slate and chimney stacks.
In a small place like Broxhill, many roofs stand in the open, which is hard on ridges, chimneys, flashings and gutters. Damp in old walls is slow to dry, so a small leak can do a lot of harm. A roof report shows what needs attention first. On exposed older roofs, chimneys and lead flashings are frequently the first to give way.
What you get is a clear record of the roof on the day we saw it. It is useful right away, and a good reference for later.

Roof by roof
Lead flashings and valleys
Flashings close the joints where a roof meets a wall or chimney. Lifted, split or slipped lead is recorded.
Clay plain and peg tiles
Where tiles hang on walls or dormers, we look at them too. Loose or missing tiles there let rain into the wall.
Practical tips
A survey works best with a little help from you, before and after. Some tips:
- Move stored items away from the loft hatch
- Leave roof access to professionals
- Let us know about past leaks
- Photograph stains when they appear
Premium comes with a follow-up after 12 months. It helps you see whether anything has changed.
Keep the loft space ventilated. Condensation builds up when air can’t move, and it can wet timbers and insulation. Keep insulation clear of eaves vents.
Why get it checked now?
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 place like Broxhill, a barn or garage roof left to fail puts whatever is inside at risk. A quick look before winter can save a lot.

How it works
Photos are taken throughout the visit, so you can see in the report what we found and where. Close-ups come from the safest viewpoint available, including by drone where it’s applicable and the weather allows. Most surveys take about 1–2 hours for an ordinary house roof, and longer if there are extensions, dormers or several chimneys. Older rural homes like those around Broxhill can have a main roof, lower lean-to roofs and outbuildings all joined together. We work round each section in turn, from the safest viewpoints.
- You pick the package that suits your roof.
- We arrive at the agreed time and talk through any concerns.
- We inspect and photograph every part of the roof we can safely see.
- 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.
Preparing for the visit
- Jot down any questions you want answered
- Keep pets out of the way during the survey
- Agree roof access with the managing agent if it is shared
How to book
If you’re buying, it helps to book soon after your offer is accepted, so there’s time to use the report before exchange. For any other survey, just phone 07833 053749 or send us an email when you’re ready.

Checking the roof from ground level
Look up at the roof after a storm, from the ground: broken slates or tiles in the garden, gaps along the ridge or loose lead are signs to note. Do not go up yourself.
Keep a simple record: when leaks happen, ground-level photos and any past roof work. Share it with us when you book.
Roof surveys in Broxhill: local notes
Listing and conservation areas can both shape what roof work is allowed on an older home. The council is the place to check, along with Historic England’s list, before anyone quotes for re-roofing. If the drone is used for your survey, the flight is checked against the Drone Safety Map first.
Take an older house close to Church of St James: old fixings, lead flashings and tall chimneys are typical of older roofs. Whatever the street in Broxhill, a roof costs least to look after when faults are caught early.
