How a roof survey works in Mimbridge
Most houses have more than one roof to look at. Flat roofs over extensions, garages and dormers are common. They’re included alongside the main roof, looking for ponding, splits, blisters and worn upstands. Flat roofs often need attention long before the main roof, so they deserve a close look. Felt frequently lasts around 15 to 20 years, while EPDM rubber can last 30 to 50. We survey flat roofs, the roof space and ridges, hips and valleys, and people most frequently book us about standing water on a flat roof and slates or tiles that have slipped or broken.
Older buildings in small places like Mimbridge may be 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. A roof report helps you plan work with that in mind. Where a building is listed, matching the existing roof materials is often expected.
Report times depend on the survey you book: the Basic Survey within 48 hours, the Standard Survey in 24 to 48 hours and the Premium Survey on the same day.

Roof surveys around Mimbridge
Mimbridge is about 2 miles from Fairoaks Airport. If your survey includes the drone, the Drone Safety Map is checked for restrictions first. Botleys Mansion, about 3.1 miles north-east, is one of the historic houses in the wider area around Mimbridge. If you own one of the older houses, expect a mix of original materials and later repairs on the roof, and the council can say whether a home is in a conservation area.
Take a building like Woking High School: large buildings have long gutter runs and big roofs that need checking like any other. Homes near green spaces like Milford Green and Coxhill Green can get more leaves in their gutters in autumn, so outlets and downpipes are worth watching. For an older house near a landmark such as Church of St Lawrence, its chimney, valleys and lead work are likely to be the parts that need attention first.
Mimbridge is about 2 miles north of Woking, in Surrey. Houses, flats, blocks and commercial buildings in Mimbridge can all book roof surveys. Across Surrey, we cover Mimbridge. You can also see our page for Guildford.

What happens on the day
We check the roof from outside and, where it is relevant and there’s safe access, from inside the roof space too. Inside, we look for staining, damp, gaps and signs of movement, as far as the space allows. All in, the survey normally takes an hour or two for a house, while a commercial roof takes nearer three to four hours. For a village or hamlet like Mimbridge, the journey is planned in advance: let us know about lanes, gates and parking. On the day, we inspect what can safely be seen, inside and out.
- We help you choose a Basic, Standard or Premium Survey.
- On the day, we start by hearing what you’ve noticed.
- We inspect and photograph every part of the roof we can safely see.
- Extra checks are carried out where your package includes them.
- You get a written report with photos and clear recommendations.
How to prepare
- Gather any invoices or paperwork from past roof work
- Have keys ready for side gates, garages or roof access doors
- If it isn’t your property yet, arrange access through the agent

Why get it checked now?
Planned work is less stressful than an emergency. A survey lets you deal with things in order of urgency, rather than calling someone out after a storm. Older and listed buildings around Mimbridge may need consent and matching materials for repairs, so leaving a defect until it’s urgent leaves less time to plan.
Prices start from £150, including VAT, for a Basic Survey. The Standard Survey starts from £250 and the Premium Survey from £400, both including VAT. You will know the price for your survey before booking.

Take a look at what a roof survey costs and what we found on two real jobs.
Different roofs, different checks
Natural slate
From the loft, we check the underside of a slate roof. Older roofs may have bitumen felt underlay, and very old roofs none.
Concrete interlocking tiles
Concrete interlocking tiles are common on post-war and newer homes. They last well, but their surface erodes slowly.
Surveys for landlords and agents in Mimbridge
If the property is let, the agent or a tenant can let us in, at a time agreed ahead of time. Surveys run on weekdays and at weekends, which helps when tenants work during the week.
Landlords, agents and building managers in Mimbridge and across Surrey can book any of our surveys. To discuss a property or a block, phone 07833 053749 or email us.
What this survey cannot tell you
Before you book, it’s worth knowing what a survey won’t do:
- A structural engineer’s report
- A promise that the roof won’t leak in future
- What’s under the slates, tiles or felt
If in doubt, call 07833 053749 or send us an email and we will recommend the right survey before booking. What a survey covers and doesn’t.
What we look at
- Clay and concrete tiles
- Ridges, hips and valleys
- Lead flashings
- Natural slate
- The roof space
- Flat roofs
- Chimney stacks
What affects the price in Mimbridge
The price reflects the time and kit the roof needs. The main factors are:
- The use of thermal imaging or a drone
- How tall the building is and how easy the roof is to see
- Which survey package you book
- Extra roofs, like extensions, dormers or garages
Larger roofs, taller buildings and commercial roofs take longer, so they’re priced to match. You’ll know the figure before booking.
Helping us price your survey
Some details help us suggest the right survey and price. When you contact us, it helps to mention:
- Anything about access we should know
- The reason for the survey, such as buying, a leak or storm damage
- When you need the report by
- The style of property, from a terrace to a block
To book a survey, phone 07833 053749 or use the contact form and let us know the address and what’s prompted the survey. We’ll confirm the price before you book.

Mimbridge questions
Do you survey roofs for landlords with property near Woking station?
Yes, landlords and agents are among the people we work for. 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.
Will you come out to Mimbridge?
We do. A small place gets exactly the same survey as a big one, with the route planned beforehand.
Can you inspect a terraced or semi-detached roof?
Yes. We survey the parts of the roof you have access to. Where a defect looks to be on the neighbour’s side, the report says so.
What does a roof survey include?
Slates or tiles, ridges, hips, valleys, flashings, chimneys and gutters are all checked, plus the roof space where there is safe access. The report includes photos and recommendations.
Does someone need to be in?
Not necessarily. An outside-only look can be arranged beforehand, but the loft and any rooms with damp need someone to let us in.
Can you tell me how long my roof will last?
We don’t give a number of years. We describe the condition of each part of the roof and how it is wearing, with recommendations ranked by urgency.
Which days do you carry out surveys?
Surveys can be booked for any day of the week: Monday to Friday, Saturdays and Sundays. Tell us which days suit you when you book.
