About our roof survey in Picket Twenty
Good roofs last decades, but their parts wear at different rates. Slate frequently lasts a century or more, and tiles commonly half a century, yet nails, battens and underlay often fail first. We tell you which parts are ageing and which are sound. Knowing that helps you plan work before it becomes urgent. If you are worried about loose ridge or hip tiles and crumbling chimney pointing or cracked flaunching, a survey will tell you what’s going on, on the roof space, chimney stacks and clay and concrete tiles alike.
In a village or hamlet like Picket Twenty, older cottages and farmhouses frequently sit alongside barns, outbuildings and a few newer houses. Roofs there can be clay tile, slate, stone or thatch, and chimney stacks are often old. Each needs checking in its own way, and thatch is a specialist material we report on as far as it can be seen. On older roofs, it is usually the chimneys and lead flashings that need work first.
The report is written in plain words, so it makes sense without any roofing background. Photographs show what each point refers to.

Common questions in Picket Twenty
Do you cover smaller places like Picket Twenty?
Yes, Picket Twenty is on our map. Villages and rural addresses get the same survey as a town house.
Is my home in Picket Twenty listed or in a conservation area?
You can check whether a building is listed on Historic England’s list, and your council can tell you if it is in a conservation area. If a home is listed, changes that affect its special interest need listed building consent, and in a conservation area re-roofing in different materials may need permission.
How do I book a survey in Picket Twenty?
The quickest way is to phone 07833 053749 or email us. Give us the address and a few details about the roof. We survey on any day of the week.
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 a roof survey replace a structural engineer?
No. If we see signs that need an engineer, such as serious sagging, we’ll say so. Our survey is not a structural engineer’s report.
Can you look at a roof that is joined to next door?
Yes, we inspect your part of the roof. We can only look at neighbouring roofs as far as access allows. Shared chimneys and party-wall upstands are looked at from your side.
What insurance do you have?
Every survey is covered by professional indemnity and public liability insurance.
Honest limits
This is not a RICS building survey, a structural engineer’s report or an asbestos survey. It also has these limits:
- What’s under the slates, tiles or felt
- The condition of the rest of the building (that’s a RICS home survey)
- Structural calculations (that’s a structural engineer’s job)
If you’re not sure which survey you need, ring 07833 053749 or use the contact form and we will give you a straight answer. What our survey covers.

Why act early in Picket Twenty
Hidden gutters and valleys can fail without warning. An overflow there sends water indoors. We check them before they cause trouble. For older village homes like those around Picket Twenty, the right replacement materials are not always easy to find quickly. Spotting a problem early leaves room to find them.
Thermal imaging and drone inspection (where it applies) come with the Premium Survey, from £400 including VAT. We can help you choose the package that fits what you’d like to know.

What we’re asked to look at in Picket Twenty
Some damage starts inside the loft space. A badly ventilated loft collects condensation, and the damp gets into timbers and insulation. It is often mistaken for a leak, and it needs a different fix.
It’s worth booking a survey if you’ve seen:
- Worn or blocked valleys
- Ridge tiles that have lifted or moved
- Water stains on rafters and ceiling joists
- Leaking gutter joints and downpipes
If your home is one of the older ones in the streets near United Reformed Church, old fixings, lead flashings and tall chimneys are typical of older roofs.
Before booking any roof surveyor
- Is there a chance to talk the report through?
- Will they check the loft as well as the outside?
- How they plan to inspect the roof safely
- Do they have a CAA Flyer ID and Operator ID for drone work?
Picket Twenty homes and their roofs
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’s often the fixings, flashings, valleys and gutters that give out first. Older buildings may be listed or sit in a conservation area. To find out, check Historic England’s list and ask the council about conservation areas. Re-roofing in different materials may need permission there.
Landlords with a home close to Andover station may find that a roof report between tenancies helps plan work before a small defect becomes a tenant’s leak. Take a building like Pilgrims' Cross CofE Aided Primary School: its roofs, gutters and any chimneys need the same checks as a house’s, just on a bigger scale.
