Roof surveys for homes and businesses in Egham Wick
We survey roofs in Egham Wick and across London and the South East. Visits run on any day of the week. We hold professional indemnity and public liability insurance. Each survey ends with a written report, emailed with photos and recommendations. Houses, flats and commercial buildings all follow the same careful process. When you are ready to book, phone 07833 053749 or send us an email. If you are worried about ponding, splits or blisters on flat roofs and worn or blocked valleys, we can find out what’s behind it, on flat roofs, the roof space and chimney stacks alike.
Older buildings in small places like Egham Wick 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. A roof report helps you plan work with that in mind. Older materials such as clay tiles, slate and stone are often matched when work is done.
You receive the findings by email, easy to pass on to a roofer, an agent or an insurer. Basic reports come within 48 hours, Standard within 24–48 hours and Premium on the day.

What happens on the day
We work from the outside in: first the slopes, edges and gutters from every safe viewpoint, then the roof space where it can be reached. In total, it takes between one and two hours for an ordinary house roof, and longer if there are extensions, dormers or several chimneys. In a small place like Egham Wick, access is normally the main thing to plan. Mention any outbuildings, barns or garages you want included, and anything about the roof you already know. Visits can be on weekdays, Saturdays or Sundays.
- We start with the property details and any concerns.
- A visit is booked for a weekday, Saturday or Sunday.
- We look at the roof from every safe vantage point outside.
- We then look in the loft for damp, staining and the condition of the underlay.
- You receive the report with photos and recommendations, prioritised by urgency.
Getting ready for the survey
- Have any questions written down, so nothing gets missed
- For a flat or shared roof, check access with the building owner or managing agent
- Leave side gates unlocked

What else we do in Egham Wick
What a survey costs
Prices vary from roof to roof, for these reasons:
- How many separate roofs there are, such as extensions, dormers and garages
- If the survey needs thermal imaging or a drone
- Commercial roofs and larger buildings
- Height and safe access
For a price for your roof in Egham Wick, phone 07833 053749 or use the contact form and let us know about the roof. The price is agreed before a date is set.
Getting in touch
The more you let us know, the easier it is to price the survey. When you contact us, let us know:
- Where any leaks, stains or damp patches show inside
- Your postcode, so we can check access and travel
- Pictures of the roof from a safe spot, if you have them
- Why you want a survey: buying, a leak, a storm or new work
If you have photos of the roof, send them over. Pictures from ground level or a window are fine; never climb up to get a better view. To send them or to book, call 07833 053749 or send us an email.
Rented homes, blocks and businesses
We survey roofs for landlords and letting agents as well as homeowners. The report gives you a dated record of the roof, with photos, which helps you plan work between tenancies.
Managing agents and residents’ management companies use roof surveys to plan maintenance. The report sets out what needs attention now and what can wait.
Leave it or get it looked at?
Valley gutters and parapet gutters are out of sight until they overflow. When they do, water comes straight into the house. We check them before they cause trouble. In a place like Egham Wick, a barn or garage roof left to fail puts whatever is inside at risk. It’s worth including them in a survey before a winter does the damage.
Every price we give includes VAT. Our price is from £150, including VAT. You’ll know the price for your survey before booking.
Why us?
- We hold a CAA Flyer ID and Operator ID
- An independent look at the roof
- Every finding written up with photos
- Over 5,000 surveys carried out

What a roof survey looks like in Egham Wick
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. Whichever you have, the details that tend to fail before the covering itself get the closest look. If your survey includes the drone, the flight is checked against the Drone Safety Map first.
Trees in and around Riverside Walk shed leaves that can end up in nearby gutters, so outlets and downpipes are worth watching. For landlords with property near Virginia Water station, knowing the condition of the roof, chimneys and gutters helps you plan work rather than react to complaints. If you look after a building such as St Cuthbert's Catholic Primary School, long gutter runs and wide roofs on a building that size are worth checking on a regular cycle.

Tips from our surveys
A survey works best with a little help from you, before and after. Tips:
- Check we can open the loft hatch
- Leave roof access to professionals
- Take photos of any leaks as they happen
- Check the roof from the ground after storms
File the report with your other home documents. It is a useful baseline for future surveys, and buyers may ask about the roof when you sell.
Look at your roof from the ground after strong winds. Fragments of slate or tile on the ground mean something has shifted. Getting small faults fixed quickly keeps water out.
What we look for on each type of roof
Concrete interlocking tiles
Concrete interlocking tiles are common on post-war and newer homes. They’re heavy and hard-wearing, but their surfaces weather over the years.
Chimney stacks
Our chimney check is a visual inspection of the stack, not a flue, gas or sweep inspection. We’ll tell you if the flue needs a specialist.
Egham Wick: your questions answered
Is my home in Egham Wick listed or in a conservation area?
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.
I let a flat near Virginia Water station. Can you check the roof?
Yes. We survey roofs for landlords, letting agents and managing agents as well as owners. You can call 07833 053749 or email us with the address and what you need.
Do you test for asbestos?
No. Asbestos was banned in UK construction in 1999, so older buildings may have it. We flag materials that could contain it, and recommends a specialist asbestos surveyor looks at them.
How experienced are you?
We’ve been surveying roofs for over 20 years and have carried out more than 5,000 surveys across London and South East England.
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.
Can you survey at the weekend?
Surveys run seven days a week. To arrange a date, ring 07833 053749 or email us.
Are you insured?
Our surveys are covered by professional indemnity and public liability insurance. Ask if you need details for a managing agent or building owner.
