About our roof survey in Clement Street
We survey roofs in Clement Street and across London and the South East. We carry out surveys on weekdays and at weekends. We hold professional indemnity and public liability insurance. Each survey ends with a written report, emailed with photographs and recommendations. Whether it is a house, a flat or a commercial building, the process is the same. When you are ready to book, phone 07833 053749 or email us. If you’ve noticed gutters that overflow in heavy rain and lifted, split or missing lead flashings, a survey will tell you what’s going on.
Some older homes in villages like Clement Street are 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. Older materials like clay tiles, slate and stone are frequently matched when work is done.
With the Standard Survey, you also get moisture detection, a structural check and a follow-up consultation. The Premium Survey adds thermal imaging, drone inspection where applicable, structural analysis and an in-person consultation.

Different roofs, different checks
Concrete interlocking tiles
Interlocking tiles on shallow roofs depend on their laps and fixings. Lifted or cracked tiles are noted.
Natural slate
Many Victorian and Edwardian houses have slate roofs. Widespread slipping usually points to corroded nails, which we describe in the report.
Roofs, chimneys and gutters in Clement Street
The wider area around Clement Street has a long history of building, with Hall Place and Gardens about 3.3 miles north-west. Period homes nearby can have lead valleys, tall chimneys and a patchwork of past repairs, and a listed home or one in a conservation area may need consent for changes of material. Many older homes in Kent have handmade clay tiles, including Kent peg tiles held by pegs through two holes, and tile-hanging on their upper walls. The county’s older buildings also include oast houses and timber-framed Wealden hall houses. On roofs like these, good slates or tiles can outlast the nails, battens, lead and mortar around them.
Trees in and around Dartford Heath shed leaves that can end up in nearby gutters, and an overflowing gutter soon means a wet wall. If you live in an older home near Church of Saint Paul, its chimney, valleys and lead work are likely to be the parts that need attention first. For site and facilities teams at buildings such as Sutton-At-Hone Church of England Primary School, long gutter runs and wide roofs on a building that size are worth checking on a regular cycle.

Your questions about roof surveys in Clement Street
I let a flat near Farningham Road station. Can you check the roof?
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.
Is my home in Clement Street listed or in a conservation area?
The council and Historic England’s list are the places to check. It’s worth checking before planning roof work, as both can affect what’s allowed.
Do you carry out asbestos surveys?
No. We do not carry out asbestos surveys or testing. If we see materials that could contain asbestos, such as cement sheets or soffits on older buildings, we flag them and recommend a specialist asbestos surveyor checks them before they’re disturbed.
Do you survey on Saturdays and Sundays?
Visits run seven days a week in the daytime. Let us know your preferred days when booking.
What’s covered in a roof inspection?
All the main parts of the roof: the slates or tiles, ridges, valleys, flashings, chimneys, gutters and roof space. Higher packages add moisture detection, structural checks, thermal imaging and a drone where applicable.
Is Clement Street in your area?
Yes. Our area covers London and South East England, and that includes Clement Street.
Will you fly a drone over my roof?
Where it’s applicable and safe, yes. We fly a sub-250g drone and we’re a CAA-registered drone operator (Flyer ID and Operator ID). Drone inspection is part of the Drone Roof Survey and the Premium Survey, where it applies.
Honest limits
It is useful to know what a survey will not do before booking:
- Confirmation of asbestos in soffits or cement sheets
- A structural engineer’s report
- Walls, floors and services below the roof
Not sure which survey suits your roof? You can call 07833 053749 or drop us an email and we will tell you before you book. The full list of what we check.
What we check
- Lead flashings
- The roof space
- Natural slate
- Chimney stacks
- Clay and concrete tiles
- Flat roofs
- Ridges, hips and valleys
What happens if roof problems are left?
Valley gutters and parapet gutters are out of sight until they overflow. When they do, water comes straight into the house. A survey checks them while they’re still dry. In a small place like Clement Street, homes can be exposed to wind and rain, which finds any gap, and older walls, once damp, take a long time to dry.

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.
Keep a simple record: dates of leaks, photos from the ground and any work done on the roof. Share it with us when booking.
How it works
Every roof is different, but as a rough guide the survey takes between one and two hours at a typical home, though large, tall or awkward roofs take more time. You are welcome to ask questions while we are there. Somewhere as small as Clement Street, access is frequently the only tricky part. Mention any outbuildings, barns or garages you want included, and anything about the roof you already know. Weekday and weekend visits are available.

Tips that help
From years of surveys, a few habits stand out as worth the effort:
- Keep the report with your property records
- Check the roof from the ground after storms
- Tell us about any leaks or stains you’ve seen
- Take photos of any leaks as they happen
Keep the report with your property records. It’s a useful baseline for future surveys, and it can help when you sell.
Plan a roof survey every few years, or sooner after severe weather. Regular checks catch problems while they’re small. Each report gives a record to compare against.
