Roof survey in North Warnborough
A roof survey tells you what condition your roof is in, before small faults become big ones. We look at the coverings, the ridges and hips, the valleys and flashings, the chimneys and the gutters, along with the loft where it is safe to get in. You get a written report with photos and recommendations. Where it’s relevant, the recommendations are prioritised by urgency. Typical surveys look at ponding, splits or blisters on flat roofs and slates or tiles that have slipped or broken, across lead flashings, the roof space and flat roofs.
Older buildings in small places like North Warnborough 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. Older materials like clay tiles, slate and stone are frequently matched when work is done.
After the visit, you get a photo-illustrated written report, emailed to you. It sets out the condition of the roof, any defects and our written recommendations.

Roof surveys around North Warnborough
Some Hampshire villages still have thatched roofs. Across the South East, older homes tend to have slate or clay tiles, and many later ones concrete tiles. Each of these coverings has its own weak points, from fixings and valleys to flashings, chimneys and gutters. Older buildings may be listed or sit in a conservation area. Historic England’s list shows listed buildings, and the council can say whether a street is in a conservation area. Re-roofing in different materials may need permission there.
If you look after a building such as Robert May's School, a written record of a large roof helps plan work for the holidays rather than in term time. If your home is one of the older ones in the streets near All Saints Church, its roof may have old fixings, lead flashings and chimneys that need a closer look. If you own a rental within reach of Hook station, a dated record of the roof is useful when planning maintenance across a let.
North Warnborough is about 5 miles west of Fleet, in Hampshire. We carry out roof surveys for householders, landlords and businesses in North Warnborough. Our Hampshire coverage includes North Warnborough. Reading is in our area too.

Locally, jobs take us to homes and businesses close to The Anchor Inn and Mayhill Junior School. For rail, the closest station is Hook station, roughly 1.5 miles north of the centre.

Practical tips
From years of surveys, a few habits stand out as worth the effort:
- Look for debris in the garden after high winds
- Let us know about past leaks
- Include dormers, porches and garages as you book
- Don’t climb onto the roof yourself
The Premium Survey includes a 12-month follow-up. It shows how the roof has fared over the year, and whether work has done its job.
Do not block the vents at the eaves. A stuffy loft collects condensation, which can dampen timbers and insulation over time. Keep insulation clear of eaves vents.
How the survey changes by roof type
Flat roof coverings
Felt flat roofs often last around 15 to 20 years, while EPDM rubber often lasts 30 to 50 years and GRP up to about 30. We check how the covering is wearing.
Concrete interlocking tiles
Mortar at ridges and verges often cracks on tiled roofs. Loose ridges and gaps in the mortar are recorded, as wind can lift them.
Questions from North Warnborough
Is North Warnborough within the area you cover?
Yes, North Warnborough is covered. Our area covers London and the South East, from towns to the smallest villages. The journey is planned ahead, so it helps to know about access.
Are there drone restrictions around North Warnborough?
The answer turns on the exact location and the conditions on the day. RAF Odiham is about 2 miles away, so we check the Drone Safety Map for restrictions before any flight. The flight also waits for calm, dry weather, and the rest of the survey doesn’t depend on the drone.
Do you carry out surveys on Saturdays and Sundays?
We survey on any day from Monday to Sunday, during the day, which suits people who work during the week. Just say which days work for you.
Do you carry professional indemnity insurance?
Our surveys are covered by professional indemnity and public liability insurance. If you need details for a managing agent or a building owner, just ask.
Can you tell me how long my roof will last?
Not as an exact number, because so much depends on the fixings, underlay and upkeep. Instead, we set out what’s sound, what’s wearing and what to do first.
Do you go up on the roof?
Only when it’s safe. Many roofs can be seen well from windows, vantage points and the loft, and Premium includes a drone where applicable.
I live in a flat. Can you survey the roof?
Yes, if the freeholder or managing agent agrees access. We look at the parts we are given access to, and the report makes that clear.
Why it’s worth a survey now in North Warnborough
Valley gutters and parapet gutters are out of sight until they overflow. When they do, water comes straight into the house. We look at them before they cause trouble. For an older or listed building in a place like North Warnborough, repairs may need matching materials and consent, so leaving a defect until it’s urgent leaves less time to plan.
The cost of a survey depends on the roof: how big it is, how high it is, the number of separate roofs and how safely it can be seen. Our price is from £150, including VAT.

What we do, step by step
You do not need to do much on the day. Show us any stains, drips or problem areas you know about, and we will get on with the inspection. A typical survey takes about one to two hours for an ordinary house roof, and longer if there are extensions, dormers or several chimneys. Somewhere as small as North Warnborough, 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 by hearing what you’d like checked and why.
- A visit is booked for a weekday or a weekend.
- We look at the roof from every safe vantage point, inside and out.
- Slates or tiles, ridges, hips, valleys, flashings, chimneys and gutters are all examined and photographed.
- We email a written report with photos and recommendations.
Preparing for the visit
- Have any questions written down, so nothing gets missed
- Have keys ready for side gates, garages or roof access doors
- Dig out any old roof reports or invoices
Arrange a survey
If you have photos of the roof, send them over. Pictures from ground level or a window are fine. To get started, phone 07833 053749 or email us.
