Roof survey in Knights Enham
Our roof surveys cover Knights Enham and the wider South East. Visits run on weekdays, Saturdays and Sundays. 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. Houses, flats and commercial buildings all follow the same careful process. To arrange a survey, call 07833 053749 or email us. We survey clay and concrete tiles, ridges, hips and valleys and flat roofs, and the problems we’re asked to look at most are standing water on a flat roof and loose chimney pots.
Somewhere as small as Knights Enham, homes are frequently older cottages and farmhouses, with outbuildings and some newer houses. Older roofs may be clay tile, slate, stone or thatch, often with chimneys that have stood a long time. We report on whatever is safely visible, and thatch is a specialist material. Chimneys and lead flashings on old roofs often need the most attention.
The report works through the roof section by section, from the coverings down to the gutters. It records what’s sound as well as what isn’t.

Why act early in Knights Enham
Hidden gutters and valleys can fail without warning. When they do, water comes straight into the house. A survey checks them while they’re still dry. For an older or listed building in a place like Knights Enham, repairs may need matching materials and consent, so leaving a defect until it is urgent leaves less time to plan.
Thermal imaging and drone inspection (where applicable) come with the Premium Survey, which starts from £400, including VAT. We can help you choose the package that fits what you want to find out.

Do you need a roof survey in Knights Enham?
Flashings seal the joints where a roof meets a wall or chimney. Over time lead flashings split, lift or work loose, and mortar fillets crack away from the wall. Missing lead is not unusual either, as thieves target it.
People normally book a survey after spotting something like this:
- Cracked mortar along the ridge
- Torn or sagging underlay
- Leaning or weathered chimney stacks
- Slates or tiles that have slipped or broken
Take an older house close to Church of St Michael and All Angels: its chimney, valleys and lead work are likely to be the parts that need attention first.
What to check before booking

How it works
Photos are taken throughout the visit, so you can see in the report what we found and where. Close-ups come from the safest viewpoint available. Most surveys take roughly 1–2 hours on an ordinary house, while a commercial roof takes nearer three to four hours. For a village or hamlet like Knights Enham, the journey is planned ahead of time: tell us about narrow lanes, gates, long drives and where we can park. The roof is looked at from the ground, from windows, from the loft where there’s safe access and from the roof where it’s safe.
- We start with the property details and any concerns.
- A visit is booked for a weekday, Saturday or Sunday.
- We check the roof from each safe vantage point outside.
- Inside, we check the loft space where there is safe access.
- You receive the report with photos and recommendations, prioritised by urgency.
Before the survey
- Show us where any leaks or stains appear
- Clear the way to the loft hatch
- Find any records of previous roof work
Book a survey
Buyers should book once an offer has been accepted, so you have the findings in time to act on them before you exchange. For any other survey, just ring 07833 053749 or email us when you are ready.

Yes. Knights Enham is within the area we cover, which takes in towns, villages and rural addresses. We work right across London and South East England. Let us know about access, parking and anything unusual about getting there when booking.
Is my home in Knights Enham listed or in a conservation area?
You can check whether a building is listed on Historic England’s list, and your council can tell you if it’s in a conservation area. If a home is listed, changes that affect its special interest need listed building consent, and in a conservation area re-roofing in different materials may need permission.
Can you inspect my roof with a drone?
Where it helps and the rules allow, yes. Our sub-250g drone is flown by a CAA-registered operator with a Flyer ID and Operator ID, and the airspace and weather are checked before every flight.
What does a roof survey cost?
Roof survey starts from £150, including VAT. We confirm the price for your survey before booking, based on the roof’s size, access and package. For a price, phone 07833 053749 or use the contact form.
How experienced are you?
Over 5,000 surveys so far, across 20+ years of surveying roofs.
Can you look at a roof that’s joined to next door?

How do I arrange a roof survey in Knights Enham?
The quickest way is to phone 07833 053749 or drop us an email. Give us the address and some details about the roof. Surveys run on weekdays, Saturdays and Sundays.
Roofs, chimneys and gutters in Knights Enham
There are about 500,000 buildings on England’s list of listed buildings, and around 10,000 conservation areas. 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 check with the council. Thatch survives on some older buildings in Hampshire’s villages. In this part of the South East, older roofs are mostly slate or clay tile and many newer ones concrete tile. On roofs like these, good slates or tiles can outlast the nails, battens, lead and mortar around them.
If you let a flat or house near Andover station, knowing the condition of the roof, chimneys and gutters helps you plan work rather than react to complaints. For site and facilities teams at buildings such as Roman Way Primary School, large buildings have long gutter runs and big roofs that need checking like any other.

Tips that help
Some practical points come up on survey after survey. They apply to most roofs:
- Make sure we can open the loft hatch
- Let us know about any leaks or stains you’ve seen
- Hold on to the report for future surveys
- Find records of any re-roofing or repairs
Your report arrives by email. Basic reports come within 48 hours, Standard within 24 to 48 hours and Premium the same day. Each finding is set out in plain English.
Have gutters and valleys cleared regularly, ideally after the leaves have fallen. Use a gutter contractor rather than climbing a ladder yourself. Most overflow damage starts with a blocked gutter.
