Roof surveys for homes and businesses in Weybourne

There are three levels of survey: Basic from £150, Standard from £250 and Premium from £400, including VAT. The Basic Survey gives a visual inspection, photographs and written recommendations. The higher packages add more checks, such as moisture detection, a structural check, thermal imaging and a drone where it applies. Every package includes a written report. Typical surveys look at ponding, splits or blisters on flat roofs and slipped, cracked or missing slates and tiles, on chimney stacks, the roof space and flat roofs.

Around Weybourne, gardens, hedges and nearby trees can mean leaves and moss end up on roofs and in gutters. Blocked gutters overflow and soak the walls below, and moss holds water against tiles. A report spots that kind of slow problem before it becomes damp inside. Plants growing from a gutter or moss on the tiles are signs worth noting from ground level.

After the visit, you get a report with photos, sent by email. It sets out the condition of the roof, any defects and our written recommendations.

Practical tips

You don’t need to be a roofer to help. What helps most:

  • Take photos of any leaks as they happen
  • Hold on to the report for future surveys
  • Let us know about past leaks
  • Find records of any re-roofing or repairs

Your report arrives by email, with photos of what we found. Basic reports come within 48 hours, Standard within 24 to 48 hours and Premium the same day. Findings are explained in plain words.

Have the roof surveyed every few years, and after major storms. Regular checks catch problems while they’re small. Each report gives a record to compare against.

Do you need a roof survey in Weybourne?

A blocked gutter does more harm than it looks. Leaves, moss and silt build up, the gutter overflows and water soaks the walls. Valley and parapet gutters can overflow inside the building.

A survey makes sense if you’ve noticed:

  • Flashings that have come away from the wall
  • Worn or blocked valleys
  • Loose ridge or hip tiles
  • Ponding, splits or blisters on flat roofs

Homes near green spaces such as Weybourne LNR can get more leaves in their gutters in autumn, and an overflowing gutter soon means a wet wall.

What to check before booking

  • What follow-up you get after the report
  • How much experience they have with roofs like yours
  • What they will not be able to tell you
  • Their insurance cover

What a good roof survey covers

What we can’t see

It’s a careful look at the roof, not the whole story. Its limits include:

  • How the roof will behave in every kind of weather
  • What’s under the slates, tiles or felt
  • Asbestos testing of any kind

If in doubt, call 07833 053749 or send us an email and we will recommend the right survey before booking. The full list of what we check.

Roof types and parts we check

  • Natural slate
  • Flat roofs
  • Lead flashings
  • Clay and concrete tiles
  • Ridges, hips and valleys
  • The roof space
  • Chimney stacks

What we do, step by step

Once we’ve finished looking, we write up our findings as a written report with photos, sent to you by email. On timing, most surveys take about 1–2 hours for most houses, or half a day or so for a commercial building. In a smaller place like Weybourne, as anywhere, the forecast plays a part: the parts that need calm, dry weather are planned around it.

  1. We start with the property details and any concerns.
  2. We agree a date, including weekends if that suits you.
  3. Outside, we inspect from the ground, windows and other safe vantage points, and from the roof where safe.
  4. We then look in the loft for damp, staining and the condition of the underlay.
  5. You receive the report with photos and recommendations, prioritised by urgency.

Getting ready for the survey

  • Dig out any old roof reports or invoices
  • Keep pets in another room
  • If the roof is shared, arrange access with whoever manages the building

Book a survey

Our price is from £150, including VAT. The exact figure depends on the roof and the package, and you can call 07833 053749 or email us to find out.

What a roof survey looks like in Weybourne

In Surrey, older roofs are often handmade clay tile, with tile-hanging on many upper walls. A few of Surrey’s oldest buildings have heavy Horsham stone slab roofs. Whichever you have, the details that tend to fail before the covering itself get the closest look. Weybourne is about 3 miles from Farnborough Airport. Where the drone is part of the survey, the Drone Safety Map is checked for restrictions first.

For landlords and managing agents

A roof problem in a let property affects your tenants as well as the building. A survey helps you spot issues early and plan the work around your tenants.

For a freeholder or residents’ company, a roof report is a sound basis for a maintenance plan.

What a survey costs

What a survey costs depends on the time and equipment it needs. The main factors are:

  • Commercial roofs and larger buildings
  • Any need for thermal images or a drone flight
  • Which survey package you book
  • How many separate roofs there are, such as extensions, dormers and garages

Every price we give includes VAT, and the report isn’t charged as an extra. Prices start from £150, including VAT. Size, height and access decide where your roof falls.

What we need to know

If you can, have these to hand when you contact us:

  • When you need the report by
  • The kind of building and roof involved
  • Pictures from the garden or a window, if you have them
  • Anything about access we should know

Most bookings start with a short call: ring 07833 053749 or drop us an email, and we’ll ask about the building and what you need. The price is agreed before a date is set.

Common questions in Weybourne

I let a flat near Aldershot station. Can you check the roof?

Yes, landlords and agents are among the people we work for. You can ring 07833 053749 or drop us an email with the address and what you need, and we’ll talk through which survey suits.

Does a conservation area affect roof work in Weybourne?

Historic England’s list shows listed buildings, and the local council can tell you about conservation areas. Listed building consent is needed for changes that affect a listed building’s special interest, and conservation areas can limit changes of roofing material.

Is a roof survey the same as a structural survey?

No. We report on the roof’s condition, and Standard and Premium include structural checks. It doesn’t include structural calculations, which need an engineer.

How quickly will I get the report?

It depends on the package: within 48 hours for Basic, 24 to 48 hours for Standard and the same day for Premium. We send it by email.

How long does the visit take?

Allow between one and two hours for a house, rising to roughly 3–4 hours on a commercial building. We’ll confirm what to expect when we arrange the visit.

Do you carry professional indemnity insurance?

Our surveys are covered by professional indemnity and public liability insurance. If you need details for a managing agent or a building owner, just ask.

Can you inspect a terraced or semi-detached roof?

Yes, the part you own or can give access to. Next door’s roof is only inspected as far as we can see it. Shared chimneys and party-wall upstands are checked from your side.
