Roof surveys for homes and businesses in Haslemere
Everything we check, we check safely: from ground level, from windows and other vantage points, from inside the loft and from the roof itself where it is safe. Premium adds thermal imaging, plus a drone inspection where it applies, which helps with tall or steep roofs. All we need from you is access to the property and the loft. Each defect we find is photographed and explained. We are frequently asked to look into gaps in the roof where coverings have gone and ponding, splits or blisters on flat roofs, across the roof space, lead flashings and clay and concrete tiles.
In a smaller place like Haslemere, homes range from older cottages to bungalows and newer houses. Older roofs can have slate, clay tiles or other traditional coverings, while many later ones have concrete tiles. Chimneys, valleys and gutters on older homes often need the most attention. Nails and battens under older coverings often give out before the slates or tiles themselves.
The report works through the roof section by section, from the coverings down to the gutters. You’ll see the good as well as the bad.

Why act early in Haslemere
It is easier to plan roof work than to react to it. A survey lets you deal with things in order of urgency, rather than waiting for something to fail. Around Haslemere, a leak in an older house can soak into timbers and plaster, and that is a much bigger job than the original defect.
Prices start from £150, including VAT. Packages run from Basic at £150 through Standard at £250 to Premium at £400, inc. VAT, and we’ll tell you which fits.

Haslemere questions
How do I find out if my home in Haslemere is listed?
For listing, use Historic England’s list; for conservation areas, ask the council. It matters most if you’re planning to re-roof in a different material.
Do you survey roofs for landlords with property near Haslemere station?
Yes. We survey roofs for landlords, letting agents and managing agents as well as owners. You can call 07833 053749 or drop us an email with the address and what you need, and we’ll talk through which survey suits.
How soon is the report ready?
That depends on which survey you choose: within 48 hours for Basic, 24 to 48 hours for Standard and the same day for Premium. It’s emailed to you.
Do you look in the loft space?
Usually, if there is one and it can be reached safely. From inside, the underside of the roof frequently shows damp, staining or daylight that cannot be seen from outside.
What’s the best way to book?
The quickest way is to ring 07833 053749 or email us. Tell us the address and a little about the roof, and we’ll take it from there. We survey on weekdays and at weekends.
Can you survey at the weekend?
Visits run seven days a week in the daytime, which suits people who work during the week. Let us know your preferred days when you book.
Do you use drones?
Yes, where it is applicable. Our sub-250g drone is flown by a CAA-registered operator with a Flyer ID and Operator ID, and every flight depends on the airspace and the weather.
How it works
Every roof is different, but as a rough guide the survey takes an hour or two for most homes, depending on how many separate roofs there are. If you have questions on the day, just ask. A visit to Haslemere 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.
- We start by hearing what you’d like checked and why.
- We arrange a day that suits you, including weekends.
- We look at the roof from every safe vantage point, inside and out.
- We check the coverings, ridges, hips, valleys, flashings, chimneys and gutters, and photograph what we find.
- You receive a written report with photos and recommendations.
How to prepare
- Leave a clear route to the loft
- Tell us about parking before the day
- Check pets are kept safely away
Book a survey
If you are buying, it helps to book soon after your offer is accepted, so you have the findings in time to act on them before you exchange. Otherwise, simply ring 07833 053749 or send us an email whenever suits you.
Related advice
Can I check my roof myself?
Keep a simple record: dates of leaks, photos from the ground and any work done on the roof. Send it with your enquiry.
Fresh stains on ceilings or walls after rain are worth noting. Photograph them and note the date, which helps when we look at the roof.
Roof surveys in Haslemere: local notes
Many older homes in Surrey have handmade clay tiles and tile-hung upper walls. A few of Surrey’s oldest buildings have heavy Horsham stone slab roofs. Whatever the covering, it is often the fixings, flashings, valleys and gutters that give out first. If the drone is used for your survey, we check the Drone Safety Map for restrictions before flying.
For site and facilities teams at buildings such as Shottermill Infant School, its roofs, gutters and any chimneys need the same checks as a house’s, just on a bigger scale. If you live in an older home near Church of St Christopher, the nails, lead and mortar on the roof may be wearing out even where the slates or tiles look fine. If you let a flat or house near Haslemere station, the gap between tenancies is a good time to have the roof looked at.

Before and after the survey
A few practical points come up again and again on our surveys. They apply to most roofs:
- Find records of any re-roofing or repairs
- Watch for slipped slates after bad weather
- Hold on to the report for future surveys
- Stay off ladders and the roof
Keep the report with your property records. It’s a useful baseline for future surveys, and it can help when you sell.
Do not block the vents at the eaves. Condensation builds up when air cannot move, and it can wet timbers and insulation. Keep insulation clear of eaves vents.
How the survey changes by roof type
Lead flashings and valleys
Many older houses have lead in their valleys and hidden gutters. Cracks in a lead valley can send water into the roof.
Concrete interlocking tiles
Interlocking tiles on shallow roofs depend on their laps and fixings. Lifted or cracked tiles are noted.
