Roof survey in Wexham Street: what you get
Our roof surveys cover Wexham Street and the wider South East. Visits run 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. To arrange a survey, phone 07833 053749 or email us. If you’ve noticed debris building up in roof valleys and cracked or blistered flat roof coverings, a survey will tell you what’s going on, on chimney stacks, lead flashings and natural slate alike.
Some older homes in villages like Wexham Street 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. Older materials like clay tiles, slate and stone are frequently matched when work is done.
If any part of the roof couldn’t be seen safely, we say so in the report. You will know exactly what was inspected and what wasn’t.

FAQs for Wexham Street
Do you survey roofs for landlords with property near Slough station?
Yes. We survey roofs for landlords, letting agents and managing agents as well as owners. You can phone 07833 053749 or send us an email with the address and what you need, and we’ll talk through which survey suits.
Is Wexham Street within the area you cover?
Yes, Wexham Street is on our map. A small place gets exactly the same survey as a big one, with the route planned beforehand.
How many surveys have you done?
We have more than 20 years’ experience and have carried out more than 5,000 surveys.
What if it rains on the day?
Light rain does not typically stop a survey, and it can even help show where water is getting in. Heavy rain or strong wind can ground a drone and make the roof unsafe, so we will agree a new date if the weather isn’t suitable.
Does someone need to be in?
It depends on what we need to see. Inside the building and in the loft, we need someone to let us in.
How long does the visit take?
Allow about 1–2 hours at most homes; commercial roofs usually need 3–4 hours. We will confirm what to expect when we arrange the visit.
Is your survey a structural engineer’s report?
No. We report on the roof’s condition, and the Standard and Premium packages include a structural check. It does not include structural calculations, which need an engineer.
When to book a survey in Wexham Street
Weather is the main thing that wears a roof down. Strong gusts work at anything that isn’t firmly fixed, while rain gets into every gap. What starts as one slipped slate can become a leak.
It is worth booking a survey if you’ve seen:
- Leaning or weathered chimney stacks
- Gutters that overflow in heavy rain
- Slipped, cracked or missing slates and tiles
- Valley linings that have cracked or split
If you look after a shop, office or commercial unit, for instance near The Pavilions, knowing the roof’s condition lets you budget for work rather than pay for emergencies.
Choosing a roof surveyor
- Whether any drone flown is registered with the CAA
- Whether the loft space is looked at, where there is one
- What the report includes, and whether it has photos
- Is VAT included in the price?
Roof surveys in Wexham Street: local notes
Slate and clay tile are the usual coverings on older South East houses, with concrete tiles on many later estates, with flat-roofed extensions, dormers and garages common everywhere. Whichever you have, the details that tend to fail before the covering itself get the closest look. If the drone is used for your survey, the flight is checked against the Drone Safety Map first.
Anyone responsible for a site like Khalsa Secondary Academy will know that a written record of a large roof helps plan work for the holidays rather than in term time. If you let a flat or house near Slough station, knowing the condition of the roof, chimneys and gutters helps you plan work rather than react to complaints.

How the survey works
Expect us to ask a few questions before we start, such as when any problem began and what work has been done before. Then the inspection itself takes an hour or two at a typical home, though large, tall or awkward roofs take more time. For a village or hamlet like Wexham Street, the journey is planned ahead of time: let us know about lanes, gates and parking. The roof is looked at from the ground, from windows, from the loft where there’s safe access and from the roof where it is safe.

Practical tips
Some practical points come up on survey after survey. They apply to most roofs:
- Gather any paperwork for past roof work
- Take photos of any leaks as they happen
- File the report with your home documents
- Move stored items away from the loft hatch
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.
Look at your roof from the ground after strong winds. Slipped slates, lifted ridge tiles or pieces in the garden are signs something has moved. Getting small faults fixed quickly keeps water out.
What we look for on each type of roof
Flat roof coverings
Standing water, blisters and splits all point to wear. We also look at the edges, upstands and outlets, since leaks often start there.
Clay plain and peg tiles
Handmade and machine-made clay tiles are long-lasting. We check for cracked, slipped and missing tiles.
