Roof survey in Enham Alamein
Our roof survey gives you a clear picture of your roof’s condition. Slates or tiles, ridges, hips, valleys, flashings, chimneys and gutters are all checked, along with the loft where it is safe to get in. You get a written report with photographs and recommendations. Where it helps, we say which items are urgent and which can wait. Common reasons to book are torn or sagging underlay and blocked, sagging or leaking gutters, across ridges, hips and valleys, lead flashings and flat roofs.
Somewhere as small as Enham Alamein, 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. We report on what can be seen safely, and thatch is a specialist material. Chimneys and lead flashings on old roofs often need the most attention.
The report does not just list problems. It explains what we found, why it matters and what we recommend.

Why act early in Enham Alamein
If you are planning to sell, a roof survey can help you prepare. You will know what a buyer’s survey might pick up. Where a roof is exposed, as many are in small places like Enham Alamein, driving rain gets into any weakness, and damp in older walls is slow to dry out.
The Premium Survey includes thermal imaging and drone inspection where applicable, which starts from £400, inc. VAT. We’ll tell you which package suits the questions you have.
What you get with us
- Satisfaction rate of 98%

Honest limits
Without opening up the roof, some things stay hidden, so a survey has limits:
- The condition of the rest of the building (that is a RICS home survey)
- An exact number of years the roof has left
- Whether materials contain asbestos (that needs a specialist asbestos surveyor)
If in doubt, call 07833 053749 or use the contact form and we’ll suggest the right survey. What a survey covers and does not.
What we check

Signs you need a roof survey in Enham Alamein
Weather is the main thing that wears a roof down. Wind lifts loose slates, tiles and ridge pieces, while rain gets into every gap. Small faults that start this way grow over time.
Signs worth acting on include:
- Condensation or damp timbers in the loft
- Standing water on a flat roof
- Blocked, sagging or leaking gutters
- Slates or tiles that have slipped or broken
Landlords with a home close to Andover station may find that a dated record of the roof is useful when planning maintenance across a let.

Rented homes, blocks and businesses
Landlords and agents in Enham Alamein book surveys as well as householders. A photo-illustrated written report gives you a clear record of the roof, which helps you plan work between tenancies.
Letting agents often book on a landlord’s behalf, with the report sent to whoever needs it. Access is agreed with the tenant in advance.
How it works
You do not need to do much on the day. Show us any stains, drips or problem areas you know about, and we will take it from there. A typical survey takes between one and two hours for most houses; commercial roofs usually need 3–4 hours. Older roofs in small places like Enham Alamein can have low, tight loft spaces, so tell us about the loft hatch and any ladder. We only go where it is safe.
- You tell us the address, the type of roof and what’s worrying you.
- We agree a date, including weekends if that suits you.
- 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
- Jot down any questions you want answered
- For flats, check roof access has been agreed
- If you’re buying, let the agent know when we are coming

What we look for on each type of roof
Lead flashings and valleys
Many older houses have lead in their valleys and hidden gutters. Worn or split lead lets water straight in.
Flat roof coverings
Repeated coatings can hide what’s underneath. If the covering would need opening up to know more, we say so.

Roof surveys in Enham Alamein: local notes
If your survey includes the drone, the flight is checked against the Drone Safety Map first. England has around 10,000 conservation areas and about 500,000 listed buildings. Listed building consent is needed for changes that affect a listed building’s special interest, and conservation areas can limit changes of roofing material, so the council is the place to ask.
If you live in an older home near Saint George, its roof may have old fixings, lead flashings and chimneys that need a closer look. If you look after a building such as Smannell and Enham Church of England (Aided) Primary School, its roofs, gutters and any chimneys need the same checks as a house’s, just on a bigger scale.
