Roof survey in Stadhampton
We survey roofs in Stadhampton and across London and South East England. Visits run seven days a week. We hold professional indemnity and public liability insurance, and bring 20+ years’ experience. You get a written report by email, with photos and clear recommendations. Whether it is a house, a flat or a commercial building, the process is the same. When you are ready to book, call 07833 053749 or drop us an email. We are often asked to look into ridge tiles that have lifted or moved and debris building up in roof valleys, on lead flashings, clay and concrete tiles and the roof space.
Some older homes in villages like Stadhampton are listed or in a conservation area. If yours is, re-roofing in different materials may need consent, so the council is the place to check. A roof report helps you plan work with that in mind. Where a building is listed, matching the existing roof materials is often expected.
The written findings come by email, ready to forward to whoever needs them. Basic reports come within 48 hours, Standard within 24–48 hours and Premium on the day.

What a survey costs
Prices vary from roof to roof, for these reasons:
- Whether thermal imaging or a drone is needed
- How many separate roofs there are, like extensions, dormers and garages
- How complicated the roof is, with its valleys, chimneys and parapets
- Whether you choose the Basic, Standard or Premium Survey
Roof survey starts from £150, including VAT. What you pay depends on the size and height of the roof, how it can be seen safely and which survey you book.

FAQs for Stadhampton
Is my home in Stadhampton 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’s in a conservation area. Listed building consent is needed for changes that affect a listed building’s special interest, and conservation areas can limit changes of roofing material.
Can a landlord with a rental near Radley station book a roof survey?
Of course. Let us know whether a tenant or an agent will let us in, and we can send the report to you or your agent.
Can you survey a roof I share with a neighbour?
Yes, the part you own or can give access to. We can only look at neighbouring roofs as far as access allows. Shared stacks and upstands are looked at from your property.
Does this replace a RICS home survey?
No. Our survey is a roof survey, not a RICS Level 2 or Level 3 survey of the whole building. It focuses on the roof and can sit alongside a RICS survey.
Can you tell me how long my roof will last?
We do not put a figure on it, since the fixings, underlay and maintenance all play a part. What we do is explain the roof’s condition and what to deal with first.
Do you work in Stadhampton?
Yes. We cover Stadhampton and the rest of Oxfordshire. For a price, phone 07833 053749 or drop us an email.
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, while outside access can be discussed as you book.
How the survey works
You do not need to do much on the day. Point out anything you’ve noticed, like stains, drips or loose pieces, and we’ll take it from there. The survey itself takes roughly 1–2 hours for a house, and more on a big or complicated roof. In a small place like Stadhampton, access is usually the main thing to plan. Mention any outbuildings, barns or garages you want included, and anything about the roof you already know. Weekday and weekend visits are available.
- We start with the property details and any concerns.
- We agree a date, including weekends if that suits you.
- We look at the roof from every safe viewpoint outside.
- Inside, we check the loft space where there is safe access.
- We email a photo-illustrated written report and recommendations.
How to prepare
- Have any paperwork from past roof work to hand
- Have any questions written down, so nothing gets missed
- Leave a clear route to the loft
How to book
If you’re buying, it helps to book soon after your offer is accepted, so you have the findings in time to act on them before you exchange. Otherwise, simply call 07833 053749 or drop us an email whenever suits you.
Advice
Landlords, agents and block managers in Stadhampton
Where a roof is shared: we need access agreed with the freeholder or managing agent. Let us know about it as you book and we will plan the survey around it.
We also survey roofs for businesses and commercial landlords. Larger roofs take longer, and they’re priced for the size.
Leave it or get it looked at?
If you’re planning to sell, a roof survey can help you prepare. You can deal with defects before a buyer’s surveyor finds them, or at least know what to expect. Where a roof is exposed, as many are in small places like Stadhampton, driving rain gets into any weakness, and older walls, once damp, take a long time to dry.
Every price we give includes VAT, and the report isn’t charged as an extra. Our price is from £150, including VAT. Size, height and access decide where your roof falls.

What you can safely check yourself
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.
It helps to keep a record: dates of leaks, photos from the ground and any work done on the roof. Send it with your enquiry and it will help the survey.
Roof surveys around Stadhampton
About 2.5 miles north-west lies Garsington Manor, a reminder of how long the area around Stadhampton has been built on. If your house is among the older ones, expect a mix of original materials and later repairs on the roof, and a listed home or one in a conservation area may need consent for changes of material. West Oxfordshire’s older buildings frequently carry Cotswold stone slates, and a few villages in the county keep their thatch. Slate and clay tile are the usual coverings on older South East houses, with concrete tiles on many later estates. Each of these coverings has its own weak points, from fixings and valleys to flashings, chimneys and gutters.
If yours is one of the older homes in the streets near Church of St John the Baptist, its chimney, valleys and lead work are likely to be the parts that need attention first. If you let a flat or house near Radley station, a roof report helps you deal with small faults before they turn into a call from a tenant.

Signs you need a roof survey in Stadhampton
Chimneys stand exposed above the roof. Mortar crumbles, the flaunching around the pots cracks and stacks can lean. Damp on a chimney breast inside often starts at the top of the stack.
A survey makes sense if you’ve noticed:
- Cracked or blistered flat roof coverings
- Worn lead at chimneys and abutments
- Gutters that overflow in heavy rain
- Gaps in the roof where coverings have gone
For site and facilities teams at buildings like Stadhampton Primary School, large buildings have long gutter runs and big roofs that need checking like any other.
