How a roof survey works in Quidhampton

Three packages cover most roofs: Basic from £150, Standard from £250 and Premium from £400, with VAT included. Basic is a visual inspection with photos and written recommendations. The higher packages add more checks, such as moisture detection, a structural check, thermal imaging and a drone where it applies. Each one comes with a written report. Common reasons to book are loose ridge or hip tiles and gaps in the roof where coverings have gone, across ridges, hips and valleys, natural slate and flat roofs.

Somewhere as small as Quidhampton, homes are often older cottages and farmhouses, with outbuildings and some newer houses. Older roofs may be clay tile, slate, stone or thatch, often with chimneys that have stood a long time. We report on whatever is safely visible, and thatch is a specialist material. On older roofs, it is usually the chimneys and lead flashings that need work first.

After the visit, you get a written report with photos, sent by email. It explains the condition of the roof, the defects we found and what we recommend.

Local roofs in Quidhampton

Where the drone is part of the survey, the flight is checked against the Drone Safety Map first. Thatch survives on some older buildings in Hampshire’s villages. Slate and clay tile are the usual coverings on older South East houses, with concrete tiles on many later estates. Knowing the covering helps explain which parts of a roof are likely to need work first.

For an older house near a landmark such as Church of St Mary, corroded nails, tired lead and weathered chimney pointing are the things to watch on older roofs. For site and facilities teams at buildings such as Overton Church of England Primary School, long gutter runs and wide roofs on a building that size are worth checking on a regular cycle.

  • Faults hidden behind ceilings or boarding
  • Whether materials contain asbestos (that needs a specialist asbestos surveyor)
  • An exact number of years the roof has left

Prices for roof surveys in Quidhampton

Survey packages start from £150, including VAT. What you pay for your roof depends on:

  • House, block, shop or office
  • Basic, Standard or Premium
  • Extra roofs, like extensions, dormers or garages
  • The use of thermal imaging or a drone

Simple, low roofs take less time to survey than tall or complicated ones, and the package you pick makes a difference too. The price is always agreed first.

Helping us price your survey

Before you get in touch, it’s useful to have:

  • Any photos you have, taken from the ground or a window
  • The kind of building and roof involved
  • Dates you’re working to, like exchange
  • Any stains, drips or damp patches you’ve seen indoors

Surveys can be booked for weekdays, Saturdays or Sundays. To find a date that works for you, ring 07833 053749 or use the contact form with the address and the days you’d prefer.

What we do, step by step

We work from the outside in: first the slopes, edges and gutters from every safe viewpoint, then the loft space where it can be reached. All told, expect an hour or two for an ordinary house roof, and longer if there are extensions, dormers or several chimneys. In a hamlet or village like Quidhampton, a postcode does not always lead to the right gate, so a few directions are welcome. The visit itself is the same as anywhere else.

  1. We start with the property details and any concerns.
  2. A visit is booked for a weekday, Saturday or Sunday.
  3. Outside, we inspect from ground level, windows and other safe vantage points, and from the roof where safe.
  4. We then look in the loft for damp, staining and the condition of the underlay.
  5. We email a written report with photographs and recommendations.

Before we arrive

  • Note where any stains or damp appear
  • Tell us where we can park nearby
  • If it is not your property yet, arrange access through the agent

Photos help, if you have them. Take them safely from ground level or a window. To send them or to book, ring 07833 053749 or email us.

Advice

Common questions in Quidhampton

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

Yes, that is a common request. We just need to know who will give access, and we can send the report to you or your agent.

Is Quidhampton within the area you cover?

Yes, smaller places are covered as well as towns. We cover the whole of London and South East England. Just mention lanes, gates or anything else about the route when you book.

How many surveys have you done?

We have been surveying roofs for over 20 years and have carried out more than 5,000 surveys.

Do you look in the loft space?

If there is 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.

Do you carry professional indemnity insurance?

Our cover is professional indemnity plus public liability, and details are available on request.

Do you go up on the roof?

Where it is safe, yes. Much of the survey is done from ground level, upper windows and the loft space. The Premium Survey adds a drone where it applies.

When will the report arrive?

Premium reports arrive the same day, Standard within 24 to 48 hours and Basic within 48 hours. Each report includes photos.

Why act early in Quidhampton

Planned work is less stressful than an emergency. A survey lets you deal with things in order of urgency, rather than waiting for something to fail. For older village homes like those around Quidhampton, the right replacement materials are not always easy to find quickly. That’s one more reason to find defects before they become urgent.

The Premium Survey includes thermal imaging and drone inspection where applicable, from £400 with VAT included. We’ll tell you which package suits the questions you have.

Signs you need a roof survey in Quidhampton

Slates and tiles often outlast the fixings that hold them. On slate roofs, corroded nails let slates slip, which is known as ‘nail fatigue’. On tiled roofs, battens and pegs can rot.

We’re often asked to look at:

  • Lifted, split or missing lead flashings
  • Crumbling chimney pointing or cracked flaunching
  • Loose ridge or hip tiles
  • Slates or tiles that have slipped or broken

If you let a flat or house near Overton station, a roof report helps you deal with small faults before they turn into a call from a tenant.

Before booking any roof surveyor

  • Whether any drone flown is registered with the CAA
  • What’s outside the scope of the survey
  • Are they insured for the work?
  • Whether the price includes VAT

What a good roof survey covers

Checking the roof from ground level

During heavy rain, look at the gutters from the ground or a window. Water spilling over the edge can be a sign of a blockage or a gutter that has dropped.

Fresh stains on ceilings or walls after rain are worth noting. Photograph them and note the date.
