Roof Survey in Grange Park
A roof condition survey for homes and buildings in Grange Park, carried out by an experienced roof surveyor. You get a clear written report with photos.
- Flashings that have come away from the wall
- Cracked or blistered flat roof coverings
- Loose ridge or hip tiles
How the survey changes by roof type
Lead flashings and valleys
Lead-lined valleys and gutters are common on older homes. Cracks in a lead valley can send water into the roof, and lead is a target for theft.
Clay plain and peg tiles
Tile-hanging on walls and dormer cheeks is checked as part of the roof where it is relevant. Gaps in tile-hanging let water reach the wall behind.
Roof survey in Grange Park
Everything we check, we check safely: from ground level, from windows, from the loft space and from the roof where conditions allow. The Premium Survey adds thermal imaging and, where it applies, a drone, which helps with tall or steep roofs. You do not need to do anything except give us access. Each defect we find is photographed and explained. We survey clay and concrete tiles, the roof space and chimney stacks, and the problems we are asked to look at most are leaking gutter joints and downpipes and slipped, cracked or missing slates and tiles.
A London butterfly roof slopes down to a central valley gutter that drains to the back of the house. Hidden behind the parapet, that gutter can block or split without anyone seeing it. For a house in Grange Park with this kind of roof, the hidden gutter is one of the first things to check.
The report records the roof as we found it on the day. It is useful right away, and a good reference for later.

Practical tips
Most of what helps is simple and safe from the ground. Our suggestions:
- Have details of recent roof work to hand
- Stay off ladders and the roof
- Move stored items away from the loft hatch
- Take photos of any leaks as they happen
Your report arrives by email, with photographs of what we found. Turnaround is within 48 hours for Basic, 24 to 48 hours for Standard and the same day for Premium. Each finding is set out in plain English, with recommendations.
Keep gutters, valleys and outlets clear of leaves and moss, particularly after autumn. Leave the clearing to a professional. Most overflow damage starts with a blocked gutter.
How we price roof surveys
When we price a survey, we consider:
- How complicated the roof is, with its valleys, chimneys and parapets
- If the survey needs thermal imaging or a drone
- Which survey package you book
- Commercial roofs and larger buildings
Prices quoted always include VAT, and the report is not charged as an extra. Our price is from £150, including VAT. Where your roof sits in the range depends on its size, height and access.
Helping us price your survey
You don’t need to know any roofing terms. It is enough to let us know:
- How the loft is reached, if there is one
- The reason for the survey, such as buying, a leak or storm damage
- Photos of the roof, taken safely from ground level or a window
- The property’s address and postcode
Our phone lines are open seven days a week. To book or ask a question, call 07833 053749 or use the contact form.
Local roofs in Grange Park
About 2 miles north-east lies Forty Hall, a reminder of how long the area around Grange Park has been built on. On older houses around here, roofs often carry the marks of earlier repairs, from replaced slates to new lead, and a listed home or one in a conservation area may need consent for changes of material. If your survey includes the drone, we check the Drone Safety Map for restrictions before flying.
Take an older house close to Church of St Mary Magdalene: old fixings, lead flashings and tall chimneys are typical of older roofs. If you run a business near Edmonton Green Shopping Centre, a dated report on the roof is useful for planning and for any lease discussions.

Grange Park: your questions answered
Do you survey roofs for landlords with property near Grange Park station?
Yes, landlords and agents book with us as well as owners. You can call 07833 053749 or send us an email with the address and some details.
Will parking be an issue for a roof survey in Grange Park?
Normally it’s manageable with a little notice. Let us know the parking rules on your street and we will work around them.
Is this a RICS survey?
No. It is a specialist roof survey, not a RICS Level 2 or Level 3 building survey. It focuses on the roof, so it sits alongside a building survey rather than replacing it.
How do I arrange a roof survey in Grange Park?
The quickest way is to call 07833 053749 or drop us an email. Let us know the address and a little about the roof, and we will take it from there. We survey on any day of the week.
Can you tell me how long my roof will last?
Not as an exact number, since the fixings, underlay and maintenance all play a part. What we do is explain the roof’s condition and what to deal with first.
Do you go up on the roof?
Only where it is safe to do so. We also inspect from ground level, from windows and vantage points, and from the loft. The Premium Survey adds a drone where applicable.
Can you survey a shared roof?
Yes. Shared roofs just need a little more planning. Let us know about it when you book and we’ll plan the survey around it.
The survey, step by step
There isn’t much for you to do on the day. Show us any stains, drips or problem areas you know about, and we will get on with the inspection. A typical survey takes between one and two hours for a house, and longer for a large or complex roof. In Grange Park, as in much of London, lots of properties are flats or terraces without side access, so rear slopes are viewed from windows, the loft or, where a flight is allowed, by drone. If the building has a managing agent or access rules, tell us when booking.
- You let us know the address, the type of roof and what’s worrying you.
- We agree a date, including weekends if that suits you.
- Outside, we inspect from ground level, windows and other safe vantage points, and from the roof where safe.
- Inside, we check the loft space where there is safe access.
- You receive the report with photos and recommendations, prioritised by urgency.
How to prepare
- Tell us about parking before the day
- Have any questions written down, so nothing gets missed
- Move anything stored under the loft hatch
Book a survey
Booking is simple: just phone 07833 053749 or send us an email, let us know about the property and we’ll suggest the right survey. The price is agreed up front.
Advice
Do you need a roof survey in Grange Park?
A chimney stack takes more weather than almost any other part of a roof. Mortar crumbles, the flaunching around the pots cracks and stacks can lean. Water that gets into a stack can show up as damp in the rooms below.
Typical things we are asked to look at include:
- Loose chimney pots
- Ridge tiles that have lifted or moved
- Gaps in the roof where coverings have gone
- Torn or sagging underlay
For site and facilities teams at buildings such as Grange Park Primary School, long gutter runs and wide roofs on a building that size are worth checking on a regular cycle.
Questions to ask before booking
- If they fly a drone, whether they hold a CAA Flyer ID and Operator ID
- Whether they hold professional indemnity and public liability insurance
- Whether the roof space is looked at, where there is one
- What the report includes, and whether it has photos
