Lower Eashing Roof Survey

Roof survey in Lower Eashing
There are three levels of survey: Basic from £150, Standard from £250 and Premium from £400, with VAT included. Basic is a visual inspection with photos and written recommendations. Standard and Premium go further, like moisture detection, a structural check, thermal imaging and a drone where applicable. Every package includes a written report. We survey lead flashings, chimney stacks and natural slate, and common reasons people get in touch are blocked, sagging or leaking gutters and loose chimney pots.
Village roofs often face open fields and take the full force of wind and rain, so ridges, chimney stacks, flashings and gutters work hard. Older walls take a long time to dry once water gets in. A roof report shows what needs attention first. On exposed older roofs, chimneys and lead flashings are often the first to give way.
You receive the findings by email, ready to forward to whoever needs them. Basic reports come within 48 hours, Standard within 24–48 hours and Premium on the day.

Surveys for landlords and agents in Lower Eashing
Landlords and agents in Lower Eashing book surveys as well as homeowners. The report gives you a dated record of the roof, with photos, useful for planning maintenance.
Shared roofs need a little more planning: we need access agreed with the building owner or managing agent. Tell us about it as you book and we’ll plan the survey around it.
What happens on the day
Before we start, tell us 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. Most visits take an hour or two for most homes, depending on how many separate roofs there are. Somewhere as small as Lower Eashing, access is often the only tricky part. Mention any outbuildings, barns or garages you want included, and anything about the roof you already know. Visits can be on weekdays, Saturdays or Sundays.
- We start with the property details and any concerns.
- 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.
- We then look in the loft for damp, staining and the condition of the underlay.
- You receive the report with photos and recommendations, prioritised by urgency.
Preparing for the visit
- Note where any stains or damp appear
- Buyers: confirm access with the estate agent or seller
- Keep pets in another room
Booking a survey
A quick phone call is normally the easiest start: ring 07833 053749 or use the contact form, and we’ll ask about the building and what you need. You will have a price before anything is arranged.

Leave it or get it looked at?
By the time water marks a ceiling, it’s often been getting in for a while. Damp spreads through insulation and timber before anything shows below. From inside the roof space, we can often spot it sooner. For older village homes like those around Lower Eashing, the right replacement materials are not always easy to find quickly. That is one more reason to find defects before they become urgent.
A Basic Survey starts from £150, including VAT. Standard is from £250 and Premium from £400. We confirm the price for the job before you book.

Common roof problems in Lower Eashing
Weather is the main thing that wears a roof down. Strong gusts work at anything that isn’t firmly fixed, and rain finds any gap it can. What starts as one slipped slate can become a leak.
We are often asked to look at:
- Blocked, sagging or leaking gutters
- Ponding, splits or blisters on flat roofs
- Gaps in the roof where coverings have gone
- Ridge tiles that have lifted or moved
The streets around a church like Church of St Mary are often among the oldest in a place, and if your house is among the older ones nearby, corroded nails, tired lead and weathered chimney pointing are the things to watch on older roofs.
Before you book any roof surveyor
- What follow-up you get after the report
- Whether the roof space is looked at, where there is one
- Are they insured for the work?
- Do they have a CAA Flyer ID and Operator ID for drone work?

What a survey costs

- How complicated the roof is, with its valleys, chimneys and parapets
- The type of building, from a house to a block or an office
- The package you choose: Basic, Standard or Premium
Every price we give includes VAT. Roof survey starts from £150, including VAT. We confirm the price for your roof before booking.

Lower Eashing homes and their roofs
With Loseley Park about 2.7 miles north-east, Lower Eashing sits in an area with a long building history. Period homes nearby can have lead valleys, tall chimneys and a patchwork of past repairs. Where the drone is part of the survey, the flight is checked against the Drone Safety Map first.
Take a building like St Mary's CofE Voluntary Controlled Infant School: a written record of a large roof helps plan work for the holidays rather than in term time. Homes near green spaces like Middlebriars Wood can get more leaves in their gutters in autumn, and blocked gutters overflow and soak walls.
