About our roof survey in East Stratton
Our roof surveys cover East Stratton and the wider South East. Visits run on any day of the week. We are insured for professional indemnity and public liability, and bring 20+ years’ experience. You get a written report by email, with photos and clear recommendations. Whether it is a house, a flat or a commercial building, the process is the same. To arrange a survey, ring 07833 053749 or drop us an email. Common reasons to book are torn or sagging underlay and gutters that overflow in heavy rain, across ridges, hips and valleys, lead flashings and the roof space.
Older buildings in small places like East Stratton may be 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. Knowing the roof’s condition helps you plan ahead with that in mind. Older materials such as clay tiles, slate and stone are often matched when work is done.
The report is written in plain words, so you do not need to be a roofer to follow it. Photographs show what each point refers to, and recommendations are put in order of urgency where relevant.

What happens if roof problems are left?
A small roof defect usually gets bigger. A single gap lets water onto the timbers underneath, and damp timber slowly weakens. Catching it early means less to put right. Outbuildings and barns around East Stratton are easy to forget, but a failed roof there can spoil what’s stored inside. It is worth including them in a survey before a winter does the damage.
Price depends partly on the package: Basic from £150, Standard from £250 or Premium from £400, all with VAT included. The roof’s size, height and access matter as well.
What you get with us
- Every finding written up with photos
- Thermal imaging and drone inspection where they help
- Packages from £150, inc. VAT
- A sub-250g drone, flown with a CAA Flyer ID and Operator ID

Roofs, chimneys and gutters in East Stratton
Where the drone is part of the survey, we check the Drone Safety Map for restrictions before flying. England has around 10,000 conservation areas and about 500,000 listed buildings. If your home is listed, changes that affect its special interest need listed building consent, and in a conservation area re-roofing in different materials may need permission, so the council is the place to ask.
For landlords with property near Micheldever station, a roof report between tenancies helps plan work before a small defect becomes a tenant’s leak. The streets around a church such as Church of All Saints are often among the oldest in a place, and if your home is one of the older ones nearby, its chimney, valleys and lead work are likely to be the parts that need attention first.

How the survey works
Before we start, tell us why you’ve booked: buying, a leak, storm damage, new work or just wanting to know where things stand. It helps us focus on what matters most to you. Most visits take about 1–2 hours for most homes, depending on how many separate roofs there are. For a village or hamlet like East Stratton, the journey is planned in advance: tell us about narrow lanes, gates, long drives and where we can park. 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.
- We agree a date, on a weekday, Saturday or Sunday.
- We inspect from ground level, from windows, from the roof space and from the roof where safe.
- Every part of the roof is checked and photographed.
- Your report arrives by email, with recommendations prioritised by urgency.
Before we arrive
- Have keys ready for side gates, garages or roof access doors
- Make sure pets are kept safely away
- Clear the way to the loft hatch
Arrange a survey

Landlord and commercial surveys in East Stratton
A roof problem in a let property affects your tenants as well as the building. A survey shows what needs attention, so you can plan the work around your tenants.
Surveys can also be booked by buyers’ agents acting for a client. The report is emailed, so it can go straight to your client.
Prices for roof surveys in East Stratton
Prices vary from roof to roof, and it comes down to:
- Commercial roofs and larger buildings
- Whether thermal imaging or a drone is needed
- How big the roof is
- Extensions, dormers and garages with roofs of their own
Larger roofs, taller buildings and commercial roofs take longer, so the price reflects that. The price is confirmed before you book.
Booking your survey
Some details help us suggest the right survey and price. When you contact us, tell us:
- The property’s address and postcode
- Your timetable, such as an exchange date
- Any stains, drips or damp patches you’ve seen indoors
- The type of building and roof, such as pitched or flat
Not sure which survey you need? It is easiest to ring 07833 053749 or drop us an email and describe the roof and why you want it surveyed. We will talk you through the options and what they cost.
DIY checks: what’s safe
Fresh stains on ceilings or walls after rain are worth noting. Take a photo and write down when you saw it, as it helps a surveyor trace the cause.
During heavy rain, look at the gutters from ground level or a window. Overflowing water can point to a blockage or a sagging run.
East Stratton: your questions answered
Do you cover smaller places like East Stratton?
Yes, East Stratton is on our map. A small place gets exactly the same survey as a big one.
Do you survey roofs for landlords with property near Micheldever station?
Yes, that is a common request. Let us know whether a tenant or an agent will let us in, and we can send the report to you or your agent.
How long will you be at the property?
It normally takes between one and two hours for most homes, depending on how many separate roofs there are. The report follows within 48 hours for Basic, 24 to 48 hours for Standard and the same day for Premium.
Which days do you carry out surveys?
Surveys run on weekdays and at weekends. To arrange a date, call 07833 053749 or email us.
Does someone need to be in?
If the survey includes the loft or the inside of the building, someone needs to let us in. Access is agreed with you as you book.
Do you inspect the roof from on top?
Only where it is safe to do so. Much of the survey is done from ground level, upper windows and the roof space. The Premium Survey adds a drone where it applies.
Can you survey a roof I share with a neighbour?
Yes. We inspect what the owner gives us access to. If a problem seems to come from next door, we’ll say so.
What this survey cannot tell you
Before booking, it’s worth knowing what a survey will not do:
- Whether materials contain asbestos (that needs a specialist asbestos surveyor)
- The condition of the rest of the building (that is a RICS home survey)
- A structural engineer’s report
If in doubt, ring 07833 053749 or use the contact form and we will recommend the right survey before you book. The full list of what we check.
