How a roof survey works in St Ann's Green
A roof survey tells you what condition your roof is in, before small faults become big ones. We check the coverings, the ridges and hips, the valleys and flashings, the chimneys and the gutters, and the roof space where there is safe access. You get a report with photographs and recommendations. Where it’s relevant, the recommendations are prioritised by urgency. We survey natural slate, the roof space and chimney stacks, and people most frequently book us about leaking gutter joints and downpipes and lifted, split or missing lead flashings.
Somewhere as small as St Ann's Green, 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 what can safely be seen, and thatch is a specialist material. On older roofs, it is usually the chimneys and lead flashings that need work first.
We write the report in plain English, so you do not need to be a roofer to follow it. Photos show what each point refers to.

Helping us price your survey
The more you tell us, the easier it is to price the survey. When you get in touch, it helps to mention:
- Whether there is a loft hatch, a shared roof or tricky access
- Any stains, drips or damp patches you’ve seen indoors
- The style of property, from a terrace to a block
- Any deadline, such as an exchange date
You can call us seven days a week, including Saturdays and Sundays. For a price or to book, phone 07833 053749 or drop us an email.
DIY checks: what’s safe
If you have a loft with safe access, take a look inside. Take a torch and only step on boards or joists, and look for staining, damp timber or daylight coming through.
It is useful to keep a record: when leaks happen, ground-level photos and any past roof work. Send it with your enquiry and it will help the survey.
Leave it or get it looked at?

What a roof survey looks like in St Ann's Green
Where the drone is part of the survey, we check the Drone Safety Map for restrictions before flying. Many older homes in Kent have handmade clay tiles, including Kent peg tiles held by pegs through two holes, and tile-hanging on their upper walls. Oast houses and timber-framed Wealden hall houses are part of the county’s older buildings too. Whatever the covering, it’s often the fixings, flashings, valleys and gutters that give out first.
Around St Ann's Green, as everywhere, small roof faults are simplest to sort before they let water in.

Do you need a roof survey in St Ann's Green?
The underlay under the coverings matters too. Breathable membranes only appeared in the UK in the late 1990s, so older roofs frequently have bitumen felt, and very old ones may have none. Torn or sagging felt lets water through.
Typical things we’re asked to look at include:
- Standing water on a flat roof
- Gutters that overflow in heavy rain
- Debris building up in roof valleys
- Worn lead at chimneys and abutments
If you let a flat or house near Marden station, the gap between tenancies is a good time to have the roof looked at.
What to check before booking
- Their report turnaround times
- How long they’ve been surveying roofs
- Are they insured for the work?
- What follow-up you get after the report
Tips that help
Some practical points come up on survey after survey. They’re worth knowing whatever the roof:
- Stay off ladders and the roof
- Ask about a flat roof on an extension or garage too
- Keep a record of damp patches and dates
- Mention any damp patches when booking
We email the report to you. Turnaround is within 48 hours for Basic, 24 to 48 hours for Standard and the same day for Premium. Findings are explained in plain words.
Keep the loft space ventilated. A stuffy loft collects condensation, which can dampen timbers and insulation over time. Keep insulation clear of eaves vents.
What we do, step by step
Safety comes first on every visit. We inspect what can safely be seen, and anything we can’t see is noted in the report. Most visits take roughly 1–2 hours for most homes, depending on how many separate roofs there are.

- You let us know about the property and any concerns.
- 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.
How to prepare
- Keep pets in another room
