About our roof survey in North Mundham

People book a roof survey for all sorts of reasons. Some have spotted a stain or a slipped slate, while others just want to know where they stand. The approach is the same in each case: we inspect carefully and explain what we see in writing. We survey on weekdays and at weekends, so finding a time is rarely difficult. If you’ve noticed crumbling chimney pointing or cracked flaunching and blocked, sagging or leaking gutters, we can find out what’s behind it.

Older buildings in small places like North Mundham may be listed or in a conservation area. That can affect what materials can be used when work is done, so check with the council before planning anything. Knowing the roof’s condition helps you plan ahead with that in mind. Where a building is listed, matching the existing roof materials is frequently expected.

With the Standard Survey, you also get moisture detection, a structural check and a follow-up consultation. The Premium Survey goes further, with thermal imaging, drone inspection where applicable, structural analysis and an in-person consultation.

Common questions in North Mundham

Can a landlord with a rental near Chichester station book a roof survey?

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 smaller places like North Mundham?

Yes, North Mundham is covered. We cover the whole of London and South East England, and smaller places are part of that. Longer journeys are simply planned beforehand.

Do you need to get into the loft?

If there’s a loft and safe access to it, yes. From inside, the underside of the roof often shows damp, staining or daylight that cannot be seen from outside.

Will you climb onto the roof?

When the roof and the conditions make it safe, yes. Many roofs can be seen well from windows, vantage points and the loft.

Does someone need to be in?

If the survey includes the loft or the inside of the building, someone needs to let us in. Access is agreed with you when you book.

Does this replace a RICS home survey?

No. Our survey is a roof survey, not a RICS Level 2 or Level 3 survey of the whole building. It focuses on the roof, so it sits alongside a building survey rather than replacing it.

Can you inspect my roof with a drone?

Where it helps and the rules allow, yes. Our sub-250g drone is flown by a CAA-registered operator with a Flyer ID and Operator ID, and every flight depends on the airspace and the weather.

Why act early in North Mundham

Leaks rarely show up straight away. Insulation, plaster and timber can all be damp before you see a stain. A survey can pick up the early signs from the loft. Older and listed buildings around North Mundham 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. The final price depends on how big and how high the roof is, how it can be seen safely and the package you choose.

What you get with us

  • A sub-250g drone, flown with a CAA Flyer ID and Operator ID
  • Two decades and more of roof surveys
  • Every finding written up with photos
  • An independent look at the roof

Before and after the survey

Some practical points come up on survey after survey. They apply to most roofs:

  • Make sure we can open the loft hatch
  • Gather any paperwork for past roof work
  • Let us know about past leaks
  • Mention any flat roofs as well as the main roof

The recommendations are prioritised by urgency where relevant. Some faults need dealing with soon, while others can wait for planned work. It makes the next steps much clearer.

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.

What a roof survey looks like in North Mundham

North Mundham lies within about 3 miles of the sea, where wind off the sea can be strong. A small drone cannot fly safely in high wind or heavy rain, so the weather on the day decides whether a flight goes ahead. About 4 miles north lies Goodwood House, a reminder of how long the area around North Mundham has been built on. Older roofs in the wider area can hide decades of patch repairs, so the detail matters, and the council can say whether a home is in a conservation area.

If you look after a building like North Mundham Primary School, large buildings have long gutter runs and big roofs that need checking like any other. For landlords with property near Chichester station, a roof report between tenancies helps plan work before a small defect becomes a tenant’s leak. The streets around a church such as The Parish Church of St Stephen are often among the oldest in a place, and if yours is one of the older homes nearby, corroded nails, tired lead and weathered chimney pointing are the things to watch on older roofs.

How it works

Safety comes first on every visit. Everything that can be seen safely is inspected, and if part of the roof can’t be seen, the report says so. The survey usually takes an hour or two for most homes, depending on how many separate roofs there are. Somewhere as small as North Mundham, access is frequently the only tricky part. Let us know about outbuildings, past repairs and any leaks you’ve noticed. Weekday and weekend visits are available.

  1. We help you choose a Basic, Standard or Premium Survey.
  2. On the day, we start by hearing what you’ve noticed.
  3. We inspect and photograph every part of the roof we can safely see.
  4. Extra checks are carried out where your package includes them.
  5. You get a written report with photos and clear recommendations.

Advice

What we look for on each type of roof

Flat roof coverings

A felt roof frequently lasts around 15 to 20 years, EPDM rubber around 30 to 50 and GRP up to about 30. We check how the covering is wearing.

Lead flashings and valleys

Lead flashings seal chimneys, walls and abutments. We check for lead that has lifted, split or slipped.
