Roof survey in Littleton: what you get
Our roof surveys cover Littleton and the wider South East. We carry out surveys 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 photos and recommendations. Whether it’s a house, a flat or a commercial building, the process is the same. When you’re ready to book, ring 07833 053749 or email us. We survey natural slate, flat roofs and ridges, hips and valleys, and the problems we’re asked to look at most are cracked or blistered flat roof coverings and gaps in the roof where coverings have gone.
In a village or hamlet like Littleton, older cottages and farmhouses often sit alongside barns, outbuildings and a few newer houses. Roofs there can be clay tile, slate, stone or thatch, and chimney stacks are often old. Each needs checking in its own way, and thatch is a specialist material we report on as far as it can be seen. Chimneys and lead flashings on old roofs frequently need the most attention.
How fast the report arrives depends on the package: Basic within 48 hours, Standard in 24–48 hours and Premium the same day.

What you can safely check yourself
It is useful to keep a record: when leaks happen, ground-level photos and any past roof work. Send it with your enquiry.
Look up at the roof after a storm, from ground level: pieces of tile or slate on the ground, a gap in the ridge or a lifted flashing are all worth noting. Do not go up yourself.

Your questions about roof surveys in Littleton
Can a landlord with a rental near Farncombe station book a roof survey?
Yes, letting agents and landlords book with us as well as owners. Just call 07833 053749 or send us an email and let us know about the building.
Will you come out to Littleton?
Yes, Littleton is on our map. A small place gets exactly the same survey as a big one.
Is it the same as a RICS Level 2 or Level 3 survey?
No. We check the roof, not the whole building, and it isn’t a RICS Level 2 or Level 3 survey. Many buyers have both.
How much is a survey?
Prices start from £150, including VAT. What you pay for your roof depends on its size, height, access and the package.
Can you survey at the weekend?
Surveys can be booked for any day of the week: Monday to Friday, Saturdays and Sundays. Tell us which days suit you as you book.
Can you survey a roof I share with a neighbour?
Yes. We survey the parts of the roof you have access to. If a problem seems to come from next door, we’ll say so.
What does a roof survey include?
Slates or tiles, ridges, hips, valleys, flashings, chimneys and gutters are all checked, along with the loft where it’s safe. The report includes photos and recommendations.
How the survey changes by roof type
Natural slate
Slate is common on older homes in London and South East England. Widespread slipping normally points to corroded nails, which we describe in the report.
Concrete interlocking tiles
On low-pitched roofs, the laps and fixings of interlocking tiles matter. We look for lifted, cracked or slipped tiles, particularly at the verges and ridge.
How it works
Before we start, let us know why you’ve booked: a purchase, a leak, a storm, new work or simply peace of mind. That way we can focus on what matters to you. The visit normally takes roughly 1–2 hours at most homes, and more on a big or complicated roof. In a hamlet or village like Littleton, a postcode doesn’t always lead to the right gate, so a few directions, or a note of a nearby landmark, help us arrive on time. The visit itself is the same as anywhere else.
- You let us know the address, the type of roof and what’s worrying you.
- A visit is booked for a weekday, Saturday or Sunday.
- 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’s safe access.
- We email a written report with photos and recommendations.
Before we arrive
- Point out any leaks or damp patches
- Unlock side gates and any roof access doors
- If you’re buying, check with the agent that we can get in
Getting a price
We confirm the price for the job before booking, so you know where you stand. Our price is from £150, including VAT. To book, call 07833 053749 or email us.

Roof surveys in Littleton: local notes
If your survey includes the drone, we check the Drone Safety Map for restrictions before flying. Loseley Park, about 0.2 miles west, is one of the historic houses in the wider area around Littleton. Older roofs in the wider area can hide decades of patch repairs, so the detail matters.
Landlords with a home close to Farncombe station may find that a roof report helps you deal with small faults before they turn into a call from a tenant. The streets around a church such as Church of St Francis are often among the oldest in a place, and if your home is one of the older ones nearby, the nails, lead and mortar on the roof may be wearing out even where the slates or tiles look fine. For site and facilities teams at buildings such as Loseley Fields Primary School, long gutter runs and wide roofs on a building that size are worth checking on a regular cycle.

Practical tips
A few practical points come up again and again on our surveys. They’re worth knowing whatever the roof:
- Keep the report with your property records
- Let us know about past leaks
- Have details of recent roof work to hand
- Look for debris in the garden after high winds
Where it helps, we say which items are urgent. Some faults need dealing with soon, while others can wait for planned work. It makes the next steps much clearer.
Plan a roof survey every few years, or sooner after severe weather. Routine surveys pick up wear before it leaks. Compare each report with the last.
