How a roof survey works in Micheldever Station
Everything we check, we check safely: from ground level, from windows, from the roof space and from the roof where conditions allow. Premium adds thermal imaging, plus a drone inspection where applicable, which helps with tall or steep roofs. All we need from you is access to the property and the loft. Everything we see is photographed for the report. We survey lead flashings, natural slate and ridges, hips and valleys, and the problems we’re asked to look at most are flashings that have come away from the wall and worn or blocked valleys.
Some older homes in villages like Micheldever Station are listed or in a conservation area. If yours is, re-roofing in different materials may need consent, so the council is the place to check. Knowing the roof’s condition helps you plan ahead with that in mind. Where a building is listed, matching the existing roof materials is often expected.
How fast the report arrives depends on the package: the Basic Survey within 48 hours, the Standard Survey in 24 to 48 hours and the Premium Survey on the same day.

Signs you need a roof survey in Micheldever Station
Some damage starts inside the loft space. Poor ventilation lets condensation build up in the loft, wetting timbers and insulation. It is often mistaken for a leak.
A survey makes sense if you’ve noticed:
- Worn lead at chimneys and abutments
- Gaps in the roof where coverings have gone
- Crumbling chimney pointing or cracked flaunching
- Water stains on rafters and ceiling joists
For any home in Micheldever Station, it is the small, early fault that is cheapest to put right.
Before you book any roof surveyor
- What experience they bring
- Are they insured for the work?
- Whether the loft is part of the inspection
- What’s outside the scope of the survey
What a survey costs
When we price a survey, we consider:
- How big the roof is
- The number of roofs, including extensions and garages
- The use of thermal imaging or a drone
- Commercial roofs and larger buildings
What a survey costs comes down to the roof itself: how big it is, how high it is, the number of separate roofs and how safely it can be seen. Roof survey starts from £150, including VAT.
What to let us know when you get in touch
Here’s what helps us most when you get in touch:

Advice
Practical tips
Nothing here needs a ladder. A few suggestions:
- Tell us about any leaks or stains you’ve seen
- File the report with your home documents
- Watch for slipped slates after bad weather
- Gather any paperwork for past roof work
The recommendations are prioritised by urgency where relevant. Some things need prompt attention, others can be planned for. That helps you decide what to do first.
Check the loft now and then, with care and a good torch. Look for water marks, damp wood and chinks of light. Photograph anything new.
Your questions about roof surveys in Micheldever Station
I let a flat near Overton station. Can you check the roof?
Yes, that is a common request. We just need to know who will give access, and the report can go straight to you or your agent.
Do you cover smaller places like Micheldever Station?
Yes, Micheldever Station is on our map. Villages and rural addresses get the same survey as a town house, with the route planned beforehand.
What insurance do you have?
Professional indemnity and public liability insurance cover our surveys. Ask if you need details for a managing agent or building owner.
Do you need to get into the loft?
If the survey needs it and the roof space can be reached safely, yes. Please clear anything stored under the hatch.
Is it the same as a RICS Level 2 or Level 3 survey?
No. This is a survey of the roof only, so it’s not a RICS Level 2 or Level 3 survey. Many buyers have both.
How much does a roof survey cost in Micheldever Station?
Prices start from £150, including VAT. We confirm the price for your roof before you book, and it depends on the roof’s size, access and the package you choose. For a price, ring 07833 053749 or use the contact form.
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. Instead, we set out what’s sound, what’s wearing and what to do first.
Roofs, chimneys and gutters in Micheldever Station
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. Whatever the covering, it is frequently the fixings, flashings, valleys and gutters that give out first. Listing and conservation areas can both shape what roof work is allowed on an older home. The council is the place to check, along with Historic England’s list.
If you let a flat or house near Overton station, the gap between tenancies is a good time to have the roof looked at.

What you can safely check yourself
It’s useful to keep a record: dates of leaks, photos from the ground and any work done on the roof. Share it with us as you book and it will help the survey.
After strong wind, take a look from the pavement or garden: pieces of tile or slate on the ground, a gap in the ridge or a lifted flashing are all worth noting. Leave anything above ground level to a survey.
