What we need to know
Here’s what helps us most when you contact us:
- Where the property is, with the postcode
- Where any leaks, stains or damp patches show inside
- What’s prompted the survey
- The style of property, from a terrace to a block
Photos help, if you have them. Take them safely from ground level or a window; never climb up to get a better view. To send them or to book, phone 07833 053749 or email us.
How a roof survey works in Nash Street
Everything we check, we check safely: from the ground, from windows and other vantage points, from inside the loft and from the roof itself where it’s safe. 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. If you’ve noticed crumbling chimney pointing or cracked flaunching and debris building up in roof valleys, we can find out what’s behind it, on chimney stacks, flat roofs and lead flashings alike.
In a small place like Nash Street, many roofs stand in the open, which is hard on ridges, chimneys, flashings and gutters. Older walls take a long time to dry once water gets in. A written report sets out what to deal with and in what order. Lead flashings and old chimney stacks are frequently where weather gets in first.
Every survey ends with a written report, with photographs, sent by email. It explains the condition of the roof, the defects we found and what we recommend.

Nash Street homes and their roofs
Nash Street lies within about 5 miles of the sea, and wind near the sea can be strong. A small drone cannot fly safely in strong wind or a downpour, so the weather on the day decides whether a flight goes ahead. Where the drone is part of the survey, we check the Drone Safety Map for restrictions before flying.
Landlords with a home close to Meopham station may find that a roof report between tenancies helps plan work before a small defect becomes a tenant’s leak. Trees in and around Jeskyns shed leaves that can end up in nearby gutters.

What you can safely check yourself
It is useful to keep a record: when leaks happen, ground-level photos and any past roof work. Share it with us as you book and it will help the survey.
If you have a loft with safe access, take a look inside. Take a torch and only step on boards or joists, and look for staining, damp timber or daylight coming through.
Common questions in Nash Street
Is my home in Nash Street listed or in a conservation area?
For listing, use Historic England’s list; for conservation areas, ask the council. It matters most if you are planning to re-roof in a different material.
I let a flat near Meopham station. Can you check the roof?
Of course. We just need to know who will give access, and the report can go straight to you or your agent.
Do you cover Nash Street for roof surveys?
Yes, we do. We carry out roof surveys in Nash Street, and the service is the same as everywhere else we work.
Does the weather affect the survey?
A survey can normally go ahead in light rain, and it can even help show where water is getting in. Heavy rain or strong wind can ground a drone and make the roof unsafe, so we will agree a new date if the weather isn’t suitable.
Are you insured?
Every survey is covered by professional indemnity and public liability insurance.
What does a roof survey cost?
Our price is from £150, including VAT. Our three packages are Basic from £150, Standard from £250 and Premium from £400, inc. VAT.
Do you test for asbestos?
No. Asbestos testing isn’t part of our service. If we see materials that could contain asbestos, such as cement sheets or soffits on older buildings, we flag them and recommend a specialist asbestos surveyor checks them before they’re disturbed.

What else we do in Nash Street
Signs you need a roof survey in Nash Street
A chimney stack takes more weather than almost any other part of a roof. Mortar crumbles, the flaunching around the pots cracks and stacks can lean. Water that gets into a stack can show up as damp in the rooms below.
Problems we come across often include:
- Condensation or damp timbers in the loft
- Ridge tiles that have lifted or moved
- Slipped, cracked or missing slates and tiles
- Flashings that have come away from the wall
For an older house near a landmark such as Church of St Mildred, corroded nails, tired lead and weathered chimney pointing are the things to watch on older roofs.

How the survey works
Time on site depends on the size and shape of the roof; as a rough guide, the survey takes roughly 1–2 hours for an ordinary house roof, and longer if there are extensions, dormers or several chimneys. You’re welcome to ask questions while we’re there. Cottages and farmhouses around Nash Street often have roofs at several levels, with lean-tos and outbuildings attached. Each part is looked at from wherever it can be seen safely.
- You tell us 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.
- We then look in the loft for damp, staining and the condition of the underlay.
- We email a written report with photos and recommendations.
How to prepare
- Mention any parking restrictions on your street
- Find any records of previous roof work
- Jot down any questions you want answered
