Roof survey in Frogmore

We survey roofs in Frogmore and across London and the South East. Visits run on weekdays and at weekends. We hold professional indemnity and public liability insurance, and bring 20+ years’ experience. Each survey ends with a written report, emailed with photographs and recommendations. Whether it’s 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. If you’ve noticed torn or sagging underlay and flashings that have come away from the wall, a survey will tell you what’s going on, whatever the roof.

Around Frogmore, older cottages sit alongside bungalows and newer houses. Coverings range from slate and clay tiles on older homes to concrete tiles on many later ones. Chimneys, valleys and gutters on older homes frequently need the most attention, and the fixings under the coverings matter too. The fixings under an older roof often fail before good slates or tiles do.

Nothing in the report is left vague: if work is needed, the report says so clearly, along with how urgent it is.

Why act early in Frogmore

If you are planning to sell, a roof survey can help you prepare. You can deal with defects before a buyer’s surveyor finds them. Tradespeople may need to travel further to a smaller place like Frogmore, so it’s useful to plan roof work rather than call someone out in a hurry. Knowing early gives you time to get the right people in.

For a price for your roof in Frogmore, phone 07833 053749 or drop us an email with the address and some details. The price is agreed before a date is set.

What you can safely check yourself

Keep a simple record: when leaks happen, ground-level photos and any past roof work. Share it with us when you book and it will help the survey.

If you have a loft with safe access, take a look inside. Take a torch and only step on boards or joists, checking for stains, damp wood or chinks of daylight.

What this survey cannot tell you

We only report everything that’s safely in view on the day, so there are some things a survey can’t cover:

  • How the roof will behave in every kind of weather
  • Whether materials contain asbestos (that needs a specialist asbestos surveyor)
  • A structural engineer’s report

If you’re not sure which survey you need, ring 07833 053749 or email us and we will give you a straight answer before you book. What our survey covers.

What this survey covers

  • Flat roofs
  • Chimney stacks
  • Lead flashings
  • Clay and concrete tiles
  • Natural slate
  • Ridges, hips and valleys
  • The roof space

Roof by roof

Chimney stacks

We check the pots, flaunching, pointing and flashings of each stack. Leaning stacks and loose pots are recorded.

Flat roof coverings

Standing water, blisters and splits all point to wear. Upstands and outlets are checked too, since leaks often start there.

Common roof problems in Frogmore

Flashings seal the joints where a roof meets a wall or chimney. Lead can crack, lift or slip with age, and mortar fillets crack. Lead is also a target for theft.

A survey makes sense if you’ve noticed:

  • Cracked mortar along the ridge
  • Standing water on a flat roof
  • Slipped, cracked or missing slates and tiles
  • Condensation or damp timbers in the loft

Landlords with a home close to Sandhurst station may find that a roof report between tenancies helps plan work before a small defect becomes a tenant’s leak.

What to expect from a roof survey

How the survey works

We photograph the roof as we go, so the report shows exactly what we saw. We take close-ups from wherever is safe. Most surveys take about one to two hours for an ordinary house roof, and longer if there are extensions, dormers or several chimneys. A visit to Frogmore is planned like any other: the time, the access and where to park are agreed beforehand. Weekday and weekend visits are both possible. Tell us about any garages, outbuildings or extensions you want included.

  1. You pick the package that suits your roof.
  2. On the day, we start by hearing what you’ve noticed.
  3. Coverings, ridges, hips, valleys, flashings, chimneys and gutters are inspected and photographed.
  4. Moisture detection, a structural check, thermal imaging or a drone are added where your package includes them.
  5. The report is emailed with findings and recommendations.

Getting ready for the survey

  • Tell us about parking before the day
  • Have any paperwork from past roof work to hand
  • Point out any leaks or damp patches

Arrange a survey

FAQs for Frogmore

Are there drone restrictions around Frogmore?

The answer turns on the exact location and the conditions on the day. Blackbushe Airport is about 3 miles away, so we check the Drone Safety Map for restrictions before any flight. The flight also waits for calm, dry weather, and the rest of the survey doesn’t depend on the drone.

I let a flat near Sandhurst station. Can you check the roof?

Of course. Let us know whether a tenant or an agent will let us in, and the report can go straight to you or your agent.

Can you survey in bad weather?

Light rain doesn’t normally stop a survey. Strong wind or a downpour can stop drone flights and make roof access unsafe, so if conditions are not right we will arrange another day with you.

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. We send it by email.

Can you tell me how long my roof will last?

We do not give a number of years. The report explains the condition of each part and the signs of wear, and we say what needs attention and how urgently.

How long have you been surveying roofs?

We’ve been surveying roofs for over 20 years and have completed over 5,000 surveys.

Can you survey at the weekend?

We survey on any day from Monday to Sunday, during the day. Just say which days work for you.

What a roof survey looks like in Frogmore

What can be done to an older roof may depend on listing or a conservation area. The council is the place to check, along with Historic England’s list, ideally before any re-roofing is planned. Frogmore is about 3 miles from Blackbushe Airport. If your survey includes the drone, we check the Drone Safety Map for restrictions before flying.

Anyone responsible for a site like Frogmore Junior School will know that large buildings have long gutter runs and big roofs that need checking like any other. The streets around a church such as St Barnabas Church are often among the oldest in a place, and if yours is one of the older homes nearby, the nails, lead and mortar on the roof may be wearing out even where the slates or tiles look fine.
