Landlord and commercial surveys in Redenham
Shared roofs need a little more planning: access has to be agreed with whoever owns or manages the building. Tell us about it as you book and we’ll plan the survey around it.
For blocks of flats, a roof survey helps managing agents and residents’ management companies plan ahead. The report sets out what needs attention now and what can wait, which helps when budgeting.
Roof survey in Redenham: what you get
We survey roofs in Redenham and across London and South East England. We carry out surveys on weekdays and at weekends. We hold professional indemnity and public liability insurance. You get a written report by email, with photos and clear recommendations. Whether it’s a house, a flat or a commercial building, the process is the same. When you’re ready to book, phone 07833 053749 or send us an email. We survey chimney stacks, clay and concrete tiles and lead flashings, and the problems we are asked to look at most are loose ridge or hip tiles and leaning or weathered chimney stacks.
In a village or hamlet like Redenham, older cottages and farmhouses often sit alongside barns, outbuildings and a few newer houses. Older roofs may be clay tile, slate, stone or thatch, frequently 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’s normally the chimneys and lead flashings that need work first.
The report works through the roof section by section, from the main slopes down to the gutters and outlets. It records what’s sound as well as what isn’t.

Your questions about roof surveys in Redenham
Will you come out to Redenham?
Yes, we do. Our area covers London and South East England, and smaller places are part of that. The journey is planned ahead, so it helps to know about access.
Does a conservation area affect roof work in Redenham?
Check Historic England’s online list first, then ask the council about conservation areas and any Article 4 direction. The answer matters most when a change of material is on the cards.
Does someone need to be in?
That depends on the survey. Inside the building and in the loft, we need someone to let us in; we will agree the details when you book.
How much does a roof survey cost in Redenham?
Prices start from £150, including VAT. Our three packages are Basic from £150, Standard from £250 and Premium from £400, with VAT included.
I live in a flat. Can you survey the roof?
Yes, once access has been agreed. Roofs over flats are often shared, so we need permission from the building owner or managing agent. We inspect only the parts we’re allowed to reach.
Do you need to get into the loft?
If the survey needs it and the loft space can be reached safely, yes. A clear path to the hatch helps.
How long have you been surveying roofs?
More than 5,000 surveys over 20+ years.
Should I look at the roof myself first?
A DIY look is useful, but it isn’t a survey. From ground level, valleys, flashings and the backs of chimneys are often out of sight, and those are details a survey looks at closely.
After heavy rain, check ceilings and the tops of walls for new stains. Photograph them and note the date, as it helps a surveyor trace the cause.
Different roofs, different checks
Natural slate
Slate is common on older homes in London and the South East. Where several slates have slipped, the cause is often nail fatigue, and we say how widespread it looks.
Lead flashings and valleys
Most leaks begin at a joint rather than the middle of a slope. They get particular attention in every survey.
Local roofs in Redenham
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. If your survey includes the drone, the flight is checked against the Drone Safety Map first.
The streets around a church like Church of St Peter in the Wood are often among the oldest in a place, and if yours is one of the older homes nearby, old fixings, lead flashings and tall chimneys are typical of older roofs. Anyone responsible for a site like Appleshaw St Peter's CofE Primary School will know that large buildings have long gutter runs and big roofs that need checking like any other. Landlords with a home close to Andover station may find that a dated record of the roof is useful when planning maintenance across a let.

What we do, step by step
A survey visit follows a simple order: we listen to what’s been worrying you, inspect the roof from every safe vantage point, photograph what we find and make notes for the report. It usually takes an hour or two for most homes, depending on how many separate roofs there are. Older rural homes like those around Redenham can have a main roof, lower lean-to roofs and outbuildings all joined together. Each part is looked at from wherever it can be seen safely, and anything we can’t see is noted.
- We start by hearing what you’d like checked and why.
- We arrange a day that suits you, including weekends.
- The roof is inspected from the ground, windows, the loft and the roof itself where it’s safe.
- Every part of the roof is checked and photographed.
- You receive a written report with photos and recommendations.
How to prepare
- Buyers: confirm access with the estate agent or seller
