Roof survey in Temple Valley: what you get
There are three levels of survey: Basic from £150, Standard from £250 and Premium from £400, inc. VAT. The Basic Survey gives a visual inspection, photographs and written recommendations. Standard and Premium go further, with moisture detection and a structural check, and on Premium, thermal imaging and a drone where it applies. Every package includes a written report. If you’ve noticed flashings that have come away from the wall and valley linings that have cracked or split, we can find out what’s behind it.
Older buildings in small places like Temple Valley may be listed or in a conservation area. That can affect what materials can be used when work is done, so check with the council before planning anything. A roof report helps you plan work with that in mind. Where a building is listed, matching the existing roof materials is frequently expected.
It isn’t only a list of defects. It explains what we found, why it matters and what we recommend.

Surveys for landlords and agents in Temple Valley
If the property is let, the agent or a tenant can let us in, at a time agreed ahead of time. Surveys run seven days a week, which helps when tenants work during the week.
Freeholders and residents’ companies use a roof report to plan and budget, with the most urgent items set out first.
Useful tips for Temple Valley property owners
Nothing here needs a ladder. Our suggestions:
- Find records of any re-roofing or repairs
- Let us know about any leaks or stains you’ve seen
- Keep a record of damp patches and dates
- Leave roof access to professionals
The Premium Survey includes a 12-month follow-up. It shows how the roof has fared over the year, and whether work has done its job.
After a storm, check the roof from the garden and the street. Slipped slates, lifted ridge tiles or pieces in the garden are signs something has moved. Getting small faults fixed quickly keeps water out.
The survey, step by step
Once we have finished looking, we write up our findings in a report with photographs, sent to you by email. On timing, it typically takes about 1–2 hours for an ordinary house roof, and longer if there are extensions, dormers or several chimneys. Somewhere as small as Temple Valley, access is frequently the only tricky part. Mention any outbuildings, barns or garages you want included, and anything about the roof you already know. Visits can be on weekdays, Saturdays or Sundays.
- You let us know the address, the type of roof and what’s worrying you.
- A visit is booked for a weekday, Saturday or Sunday.
- Outside, we inspect from ground level, windows and other safe vantage points, and from the roof where safe.
- Inside, we check the loft space where there is safe access.
- We email a written report with photos and recommendations.
Getting ready for the survey
- Keep pets in another room
- Make a note of anything you’d like us to look at
- Dig out any old roof reports or invoices

- What’s under the slates, tiles or felt
- A full building survey of the property
- An exact number of years the roof has left
If in doubt, ring 07833 053749 or email us and we’ll suggest the right survey. What a survey covers and doesn’t.

Temple Valley questions
How do I find out if my home in Temple Valley is listed?
We can’t confirm that for you, but Historic England’s list and your council can. A change of roofing material may need consent in either case.
I let a flat near Winchester station. Can you check the roof?
Yes, landlords and agents book with us as well as owners. You can ring 07833 053749 or use the contact form with the address and a few details, including who will give access on the day.
Do I have to be there for the survey?
Not always. If we only need the outside, we can agree that in advance, but the loft and any rooms with damp need someone to let us in.
Will you climb onto the roof?
When the roof and the conditions make it safe, yes. We also use views from ground level, windows and the loft space.
Can you survey at the weekend?
We carry out surveys seven days a week. To find a day that suits you, phone 07833 053749 or drop us an email.
Do you test for asbestos?
No. Asbestos was banned in UK construction in 1999, so older buildings may have it. Our report notes any materials that might, and a specialist asbestos surveyor should check them.
What does a roof survey include?
We check the coverings, ridges, hips, valleys, flashings, chimneys and gutters, along with the loft where it’s safe. The report includes photos and recommendations.

Different roofs, different checks
Flat roof coverings
Standing water, blisters and splits all point to wear. Upstands and outlets are checked too, since leaks frequently start there.
Chimney stacks
Damp on a chimney breast inside frequently starts with the stack outside. We check the flashings and mortar for the cause.
Roofs, chimneys and gutters in Temple Valley
A number of Hampshire villages keep thatched roofs on their older buildings. Older houses in the South East often have slate or clay tile roofs, while many later estates have 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.
For landlords with property near Winchester station, the gap between tenancies is a good time to have the roof looked at. Hinton Ampner House lies about 4.2 miles east, so building around Temple Valley goes back a long way.

Checking the roof from the ground
After strong wind, take a look from the pavement or garden: pieces of tile or slate on the ground, a gap in the ridge or a lifted flashing are all worth noting. Leave anything above ground level to a survey.
You can learn a lot from ground level. Binoculars help you spot slipped slates or tiles, gaps along the ridge and a leaning stack. Never climb onto the roof to look.
