How a roof survey works in Burley Street
Everything we check, we check safely: from ground level, from windows, from the loft space and from the roof where conditions allow. The Premium Survey adds thermal imaging and, where applicable, a drone, which helps with tall or steep roofs. All we need from you is access to the property and the loft. Everything we see is photographed for the report. We’re frequently asked to look into water stains on rafters and ceiling joists and leaking gutter joints and downpipes, across lead flashings, natural slate and the roof space.
In a small place like Burley Street, many roofs stand in the open, which is hard on ridges, chimneys, flashings and gutters. Older walls take a long time to dry once water gets in. A written report sets out what to deal with and in what order. Lead flashings and old chimney stacks are often where weather gets in first.
Every survey ends with a written report, with photographs, emailed to you. It explains the condition of the roof, the defects we found and what we recommend.

Burley Street questions
Does a conservation area affect roof work in Burley Street?
The council and Historic England’s list are the places to check. It is worth checking before planning roof work, as both can affect what’s allowed.
Will you come out to Burley Street?
Yes, smaller places are covered as well as towns. We survey roofs across London and South East England. Just mention lanes, gates or anything else about the route when you book.
Do you test for asbestos?
No. Asbestos testing is not part of our service. Where materials might contain it, we say so in the report and recommend a specialist asbestos surveyor checks them before they’re disturbed.
Which days do you carry out surveys?
We survey on any day from Monday to Sunday, during the day. Let us know your preferred days when booking.
Do you go up on the roof?
Where it is safe, yes. We also inspect from ground level, from windows and vantage points, and from the loft. On Premium, a drone is used where it applies.
How much does a roof survey cost in Burley Street?
Our price is from £150, including VAT. The final figure depends on the roof and the package you choose.
When will the report arrive?
It depends on the package: Basic within 48 hours, Standard within 24 to 48 hours and Premium the same day. We send it by email.
Roofs, chimneys and gutters in Burley Street
A number of Hampshire villages keep thatched roofs on their older buildings. Across the South East, older homes tend to have slate or clay tiles, and many later ones concrete tiles. Whichever you have, the details that tend to fail before the covering itself get the closest look. If the drone is used for your survey, we check the Drone Safety Map for restrictions before flying.
Avon Tyrrell House, about 2.7 miles south-west, is one of the historic houses in the wider area around Burley Street. On a period home nearby, the survey separates sound original work from tired later repairs. Anyone responsible for a site like Burley Primary School will know that large buildings have long gutter runs and big roofs that need checking like any other.
Burley Street is in Hampshire. Burley Street is one of many places we visit across Hampshire. We cover towns and villages across Hampshire, from the larger towns to small villages. We also survey roofs in Southampton.

Practical tips
Over many surveys, some simple habits stand out as worth the effort:
- Take photos of any leaks as they happen
- Move stored items away from the loft hatch
- Hold on to the report for future surveys
- Gather any paperwork for past roof work
Any roofer you ask to quote can work from the report. The photos show what we found and where, which makes quotes easier to compare.
After a storm, check the roof from the garden and the street. Fragments of slate or tile on the ground mean something has shifted. Getting small faults fixed quickly keeps water out.
Why get it checked now?
Planned work is less stressful than an emergency. With a report, you can tackle the urgent jobs first and plan the rest, rather than calling someone out after a storm. Around Burley Street, older homes frequently have old roof timbers, where water from a failed roof can cause rot if it is left.
Prices start from £150, including VAT. The final price depends on how big and how high the roof is, access and which survey you book.

The survey, step by step
Photos are taken throughout the visit, so you can see in the report what we found and where. We take close-ups from wherever is safe, including by drone where it’s applicable and the weather allows. A typical visit takes between one and two hours for an ordinary house roof, and longer if there are extensions, dormers or several chimneys. Somewhere like Burley Street needs a little journey planning: let us know about lanes, gates and parking. On the day, we inspect what can safely be seen, inside and out.
- You get in touch with the address and anything you’ve noticed.
- A visit is booked for a weekday or a weekend.
- The roof is inspected from the ground, windows, the loft and the roof itself where it’s safe.
- We check the coverings, ridges, hips, valleys, flashings, chimneys and gutters, and photograph what we find.
- You receive a written report with photos and recommendations.
Before the survey
- Keep pets out of the way during the survey
- Leave a clear route to the loft
- Make sure we can get to the back of the property
