How a roof survey works in Burwood Park
We survey roofs in Burwood Park and across London and South East England. Visits run on weekdays, Saturdays and Sundays. We’re insured for professional indemnity and public liability, and bring 20+ years’ experience. Each survey ends with a written report, emailed with photos and recommendations. Whether it is a house, a flat or a commercial building, the process is the same. To arrange a survey, call 07833 053749 or drop us an email. If you’ve noticed gaps in the roof where coverings have gone and blocked, sagging or leaking gutters, we can find out what’s behind it, on clay and concrete tiles, flat roofs and lead flashings alike.
Somewhere as small as Burwood Park, homes are often older cottages and farmhouses, with outbuildings and some newer houses. Older roofs may be clay tile, slate, stone or thatch, frequently with chimneys that have stood a long time. Each needs checking in its own way, and thatch is a specialist material we report on as far as it can be seen. On older roofs, it is usually the chimneys and lead flashings that need work first.
The Standard Survey adds moisture detection, a structural check and a follow-up consultation. The Premium Survey goes further, with thermal imaging, drone inspection where applicable, structural analysis and an in-person consultation.

Why it is worth a survey now in Burwood Park
It is easier to plan roof work than to react to it. A survey lets you deal with things in order of urgency, rather than waiting for something to fail. Where a roof is exposed, as many are in small places like Burwood Park, driving rain gets into any weakness, and damp in older walls is slow to dry out.
There are three survey packages: the Basic Survey from £150, the Standard Survey from £250 and the Premium Survey from £400, all inc. VAT. The price for your roof depends on its size, access and what you need to know.
Why book us in Burwood Park
- A sub-250g drone, flown with a CAA Flyer ID and Operator ID
- Weekday and weekend surveys
- Two decades and more of roof surveys
- Drone and thermal imaging surveys available

- Defects hidden under coverings or inside walls without opening up
If in doubt, call 07833 053749 or drop us an email and we will recommend the right survey. What a survey covers and does not.

Your questions about roof surveys in Burwood Park
Can a landlord with a rental near Walton-On-Thames station book a roof survey?
Yes. We survey roofs for landlords, letting agents and managing agents as well as owners. You can phone 07833 053749 or send us an email with the address and what you need, and we will talk through which survey suits.
Do you cover smaller places like Burwood Park?
Yes, smaller places are covered as well as towns. We work right across London and South East England. Just mention lanes, gates or anything else about the route as you book.
How experienced are you?
Over 20 years and more than 5,000 surveys, across London and South East England.
Do you look in the loft space?
If it is needed and safe to reach, yes. We look for staining, damp, daylight and signs of movement.
What’s covered in a roof inspection?
Slates or tiles, ridges, hips, valleys, flashings, chimneys and gutters are all checked, plus the loft space where there’s safe access. You get a photo-illustrated written report and recommendations.
Do you survey roofs on blocks of flats?
Yes. Shared roofs just need a little more planning, with the building owner or managing agent. Tell us about it as you book and we will plan the survey around it.
Do you go up on the roof?
Where it’s safe, yes. Much of the survey is done from ground level, upper windows and the loft space. On Premium, a drone is used where it applies.
Tips from our surveys
Some practical points come up on survey after survey. They’re worth knowing whatever the roof:
- Photograph stains when they appear
- Find records of any re-roofing or repairs
- Mention any flat roofs as well as the main roof
- Do not climb onto the roof yourself
File the report with your other home documents. It gives you something to compare against later, and it can help when you sell.
Have gutters and valleys cleared regularly, ideally after the leaves have fallen. Leave the clearing to a professional. Most overflow damage starts with a blocked gutter.
Rented homes, blocks and businesses
Freeholders and residents’ companies use a roof report to plan and budget.
If the property is let, the agent or a tenant can let us in. We survey on any day of the week, which can make access easier.
Can I check my roof myself?
What you can’t do safely is get up close. Slates, tiles, flat roofs and rooflights can give way. That’s where a survey comes in, using safe viewpoints and a drone where applicable.
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.
Roof surveys around Burwood Park
The Homewood, about 1.7 miles south-east, is one of the historic houses in the wider area around Burwood Park. On older houses around here, roofs often carry the marks of earlier repairs, from replaced slates to new lead, and the council can say whether a home is in a conservation area. Many older homes in Surrey have handmade clay tiles and tile-hung upper walls. Some old buildings in Surrey and Sussex have Horsham stone slab roofs. Whichever you have, the details that tend to fail before the covering itself get the closest look.
Landlords with a home close to Walton-On-Thames station may find that a dated record of the roof is useful when planning maintenance across a let. For an older house near a landmark such as Church of St Mary, old fixings, lead flashings and tall chimneys are typical of older roofs. Take a building like Cleves School: its roofs, gutters and any chimneys need the same checks as a house’s, just on a bigger scale.
