Roof survey in Crondall: what you get
Everything we check, we check safely: from ground level, from windows and other vantage points, from inside the loft and from the roof itself where it is safe. The Premium Survey adds thermal imaging and, where it applies, a drone, for roofs that are hard to see well. All we need from you is access to the property and the loft. Everything we see is photographed for the report. If you’ve noticed worn lead at chimneys and abutments and blocked, sagging or leaking gutters, we can find out what’s behind it, on the roof space, flat roofs and clay and concrete tiles alike.
In a small place like Crondall, 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. Lead flashings and old chimney stacks are frequently where weather gets in first.
The report is yours to share with whoever needs it: a seller or estate agent, an insurer, a roofer, a builder or a managing agent, whichever applies.

Local roofs in Crondall
Handmade clay tiles and tile-hung walls are typical of Surrey’s older houses. Some old buildings in Surrey and Sussex have Horsham stone slab roofs. On roofs like these, good slates or tiles can outlast the nails, battens, lead and mortar around them. About 2.7 miles east lies Farnham Castle, a reminder of how long the area around Crondall has been built on. If your home is one of the older ones, expect a mix of original materials and later repairs on the roof.
For businesses in and around places like Hart Shopping Centre, a roof report helps plan work around trading rather than after a leak. If you own a rental within reach of Farnham station, a dated record of the roof is useful when planning maintenance across a let. Take an older house close to Church of All Saints: the nails, lead and mortar on the roof may be wearing out even where the slates or tiles look fine.
Crondall is about 3 miles south of Fleet, in Surrey. Bookings from Crondall are handled just like any other: a call or an email, a price, then a date. Crondall is one of the towns and villages in Surrey we cover. You can also see our page for Guildford.

How the survey changes by roof type
Clay plain and peg tiles
Older homes in the Weald and across the South East frequently have clay plain tiles. Rotten pegs and battens let tiles move.
Natural slate
From the loft, we look at the underside of a slate roof. There may be old felt underlay, or none at all on very old roofs.
Before and after the survey
Small things make a difference, both for the survey and for the roof itself. Our tips:
- Include dormers, porches and garages as you book
- Take photos of any leaks as they happen
- Leave roof access to professionals
- File the report with your home documents
If you need work done, the report gives roofers a clear brief. The photos show what we found and where, so their quotes cover the same ground.
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.

Questions from Crondall
Does a conservation area affect roof work in Crondall?
Check Historic England’s online list first, then ask the council about conservation areas and any Article 4 direction. It matters most if you’re planning to re-roof in a different material.
Can a landlord with a rental near Farnham station book a roof survey?
Yes. We survey roofs for landlords, letting agents and managing agents as well as owners. You can ring 07833 053749 or drop us an email with the address and what you need.
Does someone need to be in?
That depends on the survey. For inside areas and the loft space, someone has to give us access, while outside access can be discussed as you book.
How long does the visit take?
The visit normally takes an hour or two for most homes, depending on how many separate roofs there are. We will give you an idea of timing when booking.
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. It’s emailed to you.
How much is a survey?
Prices start from £150, including VAT. The final figure depends on the roof and the package you choose.
Do you inspect the roof from on top?
Where it is safe, yes. Much of the survey is done from ground level, upper windows and the loft space. The Premium Survey adds a drone where it applies.
What happens on the day
It is useful to start with what’s prompted the survey: buying, a leak, storm damage, new work or just wanting to know where things stand. That way we can focus on what matters to you. The visit usually takes about 1–2 hours for an ordinary house roof, and longer if there are extensions, dormers or several chimneys. Around Crondall, older homes can have small or awkward roof spaces, so tell us about the loft hatch and any ladder. Only areas that can be reached safely are inspected.
- You pick the package that suits your roof.
- On the day, we start by hearing what you’ve noticed.
- Coverings, ridges, hips, valleys, flashings, chimneys and gutters are inspected and photographed.
- 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.
Getting ready for the survey
- Note where any stains or damp appear
- Keep pets out of the way during the survey
- Agree roof access with the managing agent if it’s shared

Advice
What happens if roof problems are left?
A roof that has had no attention for years can surprise you. A survey sets a baseline, so you can compare it next time. For older village homes like those around Crondall, the right replacement materials aren’t always easy to find quickly. Spotting a problem early leaves room to find them.
A small, low roof with good viewpoints takes less time than a tall, complicated one, and the package matters as well. The price is always agreed first.

See our cost guide or two real surveys.
Can I check my roof myself?
The one thing to avoid is getting up close. Slates, tiles, flat roofs and rooflights can give way. That part is for a survey.
During heavy rain, look at the gutters from ground level or a window. Water spilling over the edge can be a sign of a blockage or a gutter that has dropped.
What affects the price in Crondall
What a survey costs depends on the time and equipment it needs. That comes down to:
- Commercial roofs and larger buildings
- How big the roof is
- Building height and the viewpoints available
- Whether thermal imaging or a drone is needed
What a survey costs comes down to the roof itself: its size, its height, how many sections it has and how safely it can be seen. Roof survey starts from £150, including VAT.
