Pyrford Green Roof Survey
A roof condition survey for homes and buildings in Pyrford Green, carried out by an experienced roof surveyor. You get a clear written report with photos.
- Lifted, split or missing lead flashings
- Loose chimney pots
- Loose ridge or hip tiles
How the survey changes by roof type
Natural slate
Inside the loft space, we check what’s under the slates. There may be old felt underlay, or none at all on very old roofs, and we note its condition.
Flat roof coverings
Standing water, blisters and splits all point to wear. We also look at the edges, upstands and outlets.
Roof survey in Pyrford Green: what you get
Good roofs last decades, but their parts wear at different rates. Slate often lasts a century or more, and tiles commonly half a century, but the fixings and underlay beneath them often give out sooner. A survey shows which parts of your roof are wearing. Knowing that helps you plan work before it becomes urgent. We survey flat roofs, clay and concrete tiles and lead flashings, and common reasons people get in touch are leaking gutter joints and downpipes and flashings that have come away from the wall.
In a small place like Pyrford Green, many roofs stand in the open, so ridges, chimney stacks, flashings and gutters work hard. Damp in old walls is slow to dry, so a small leak can do a lot of harm. A written report sets out what to deal with and in what order. Lead flashings and old chimney stacks are often where weather gets in first.
The report is written in plain words, so you don’t need to be a roofer to follow it. Photographs show what each point refers to, with the urgent items made clear.

How it works
Expect us to ask a few questions before we start, about the roof’s history, any leaks and past repairs. Then the inspection itself takes about 1–2 hours for most homes, depending on how many separate roofs there are. Rural addresses near Pyrford Green can be hard to find from a postcode alone, so a few directions are welcome. After that, the survey runs as it would anywhere.
- You get in touch with the address and anything you’ve noticed.
- We arrange a day that suits you, including weekends.
- We look at the roof from every safe vantage point, inside and out.
- Every part of the roof is checked and photographed.
- Your report arrives by email, with recommendations prioritised by urgency.
Preparing for the visit
- Agree roof access with the managing agent if it’s shared
- Show us where any leaks or stains appear
- Leave side gates unlocked
Arrange a survey
A quick phone call is usually the easiest start: ring 07833 053749 or email us. You’ll have a price before anything is arranged.
Advice
Why act early in Pyrford Green
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. For an older or listed building in a place like Pyrford Green, repairs may need matching materials and consent, so leaving a defect until it’s urgent leaves less time to plan.

Your questions about roof surveys in Pyrford Green
Can a landlord with a rental near West Byfleet station book a roof survey?
Of course. We just need to know who will give access, and we can send the report to you or your agent.
Will you come out to Pyrford Green?
We do. A small place gets exactly the same survey as a big one.
Can you inspect my roof with a drone?
Where it is applicable and safe, yes. We are a CAA-registered drone operator (Flyer ID and Operator ID), flying a sub-250g drone. Drone inspection is part of the Drone Roof Survey and the Premium Survey, where it applies.
What do you check on a roof survey?
All the main parts of the roof: coverings, ridges, valleys, flashings, chimneys, gutters and the loft. Standard adds moisture detection and a structural check, and Premium adds thermal imaging and a drone where applicable.
Can you survey at the weekend?
Surveys run on weekdays and at weekends. To find a day that suits you, ring 07833 053749 or drop us an email.
How many surveys have you done?
We have more than 20 years’ experience and have carried out more than 5,000 surveys across London and South East England.
Can you tell me how long my roof will last?
Not as a figure. The report explains the condition of each part and the signs of wear, with recommendations ranked by urgency.
Rented homes, blocks and businesses
Letting agents often book on a landlord’s behalf, and the report can go to both. We agree a time with the tenant beforehand.
If you own several properties, you can book surveys for several addresses. To discuss a number of properties, ring 07833 053749 or email us with the addresses.
What you can safely check yourself
You can learn a lot from the ground. Binoculars help you spot slipped slates or tiles, gaps along the ridge and a leaning stack. Never climb onto the roof to look.
Your own check is a good start, but it isn’t a survey. From the ground, valleys, flashings and the backs of chimneys are often out of sight, and those are details a survey looks at closely.
What affects the cost of roof surveys
Not every roof costs the same to survey, and it comes down to:
- Roof area
- Basic, Standard or Premium
- Whether thermal imaging or a drone is needed
- The height of the building and how the roof can be seen safely
What a survey costs comes down to the roof itself: its size, its height, how many sections it has and how it can be reached and seen safely. Prices start from £150, including VAT.
Booking your survey
We will usually ask about:
- Any stains, drips or damp patches you’ve seen indoors
- Anything about access we should know
- What kind of property and roof it is
- Where the property is, with the postcode
Booking is simple: just phone 07833 053749 or use the contact form and give us some details about the property and we’ll explain which survey suits. The price is agreed up front.

If the drone is used for your survey, the flight is checked against the Drone Safety Map first. The wider area around Pyrford Green has a long history of building, with Byfleet Manor about 1.7 miles north-east. Period homes nearby can have lead valleys, tall chimneys and a patchwork of past repairs, and a listed home or one in a conservation area may need consent for changes of material.
If you live in an older home near St Nicholas's Church, the nails, lead and mortar on the roof may be wearing out even where the slates or tiles look fine. Trees in and around Manor Farm shed leaves that can end up in nearby gutters, so outlets and downpipes are worth watching. For landlords with property near West Byfleet station, a roof report between tenancies helps plan work before a small defect becomes a tenant’s leak.
