Landlord and commercial surveys in Beaulieu
Letting agents can arrange access with tenants, at a time agreed beforehand. Surveys run on weekdays and at weekends, which helps when tenants work during the week.
Shared roofs need a little more planning: access has to be agreed with whoever owns or manages the building. Mention it when you get in touch and we will plan the visit with that in mind.
Storm damage roof report in Beaulieu: what you get
We inspect the roof from wherever it can be seen safely: from ground level, from windows and higher points, from the roof space and from the roof where it is safe. Every area of damage is photographed and described. If part of the roof cannot be seen, the report says so. The report, with photos, is yours to pass to your insurer. We survey flat roofs, ridges and hips and chimney stacks, and the problems we’re asked to look at most are damaged flat roof membrane and gutters pulled loose in the wind.
In a village or hamlet like Beaulieu, older cottages and farmhouses frequently have roofs that have been patched over many years. That makes it hard to tell new damage from old wear, and the difference matters, particularly to an insurer. We look at what can be seen safely and set out what we find. Damp in old walls and timbers is slow to dry, so the sooner the cause is found the better.
After the visit, you get a photo-illustrated written report, emailed to you. It sets out the condition of the roof, any defects and our written recommendations.

FAQs for Beaulieu
Is Beaulieu within the area you cover?
We do. Villages and rural addresses get the same survey as a town house, with the route planned beforehand.
How do I find out if my home in Beaulieu is listed?
We cannot confirm that for you, but Historic England’s list and your council can. Both listing and conservation areas can limit changes of roofing material.
Will you walk on the roof?
Only when it’s safe. Safety comes first, and fragile or steep roofs cannot always be walked on. Safe viewpoints, the loft and a drone where it applies let us see the rest, and the report records anything we couldn’t see.
Are you loss adjusters?
No. We’re not loss adjusters, and we don’t negotiate claims. We provide an independent record of the roof for you to send to your insurer.
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.
Does your report mean my claim will be accepted?
That is not something we can promise. Insurers decide claims on their own policy wording. Our report gives you an independent record of the damage and its likely cause.
Will my insurer pay for an old roof?
Wear and tear is not typically covered. We describe what looks like fresh storm damage and what looks older. Your insurer decides the claim.
Prices for storm damage roof reports in Beaulieu
To price your survey, we look at:
- Height and safe access
- Whether it’s a home or a commercial building
- Basic, Standard or Premium
- How many separate roofs there are, such as extensions, dormers and garages
Every price we give includes VAT, and the written report is part of the package. Storm damage roof report starts from £150, including VAT. Size, height and access decide where your roof falls.
What to tell us when you get in touch
The more you let us know, the easier it is to price the survey. When you contact us, it helps to mention:
- Any deadline, such as an exchange date
- The property’s address and postcode
- How the loft is reached, if there is one
- The kind of building and roof involved
Buyers should book once an offer has been accepted, so there is time to use the report before exchange. Otherwise, simply ring 07833 053749 or use the contact form whenever suits you.
DIY checks: what’s safe
The one thing to avoid is getting up close. Roofs are fragile and slippery, and a fall can be serious. That part is for a survey.
Fresh stains on ceilings or walls after rain are worth noting. Photograph them and note the date.
What happens on the day
There is not much for you to do on the day. Show us any stains, drips or problem areas you know about, and we will take it from there. The survey itself takes about 1–2 hours for a house, while a commercial roof takes nearer three to four hours. Rural addresses near Beaulieu can be hard to find from a postcode alone, so a few directions are welcome. The visit itself is the same as anywhere else.
- We start with the details: when the storm hit and what damage you can see.
- The roof is looked at from the ground, from windows and from the roof space where it’s safe.
- We photograph and record every area of damage we can see.
- We note the likely cause, including any signs of wear that were there before the storm.
- We send you a written report with photos, ready to give to your insurer.
Before the survey
- Keep pets inside or away from the areas we are looking at
- Move anything stored under the loft hatch
- If you are buying, check with the agent that we can get in
Arrange a survey
To book a survey, call 07833 053749 or drop us an email and tell us the address and what’s prompted the survey. You will know the price before anything is booked.

Practical tips
You do not need to be a roofer to help. What helps most:
- Check your policy for how to report damage
- Photograph the damage safely from below
- Keep invoices for temporary repairs
- Look at what your policy says about wear and tear
For repair costs, ask a roofer to quote. The report gives them a clear list of the damage.
A well-maintained roof stands up to storms better. Have loose slates, tiles and flashings seen to promptly.
Why get it checked now?
If a roofer needs to make the roof safe, take photos first if you can do so safely from the ground. Those photos show the damage as it was. Older and listed buildings around Beaulieu may need consent and matching materials for repairs, so a defect found early gives time to plan the work properly.
We offer three survey packages: the Basic Survey from £150, the Standard Survey from £250 and the Premium Survey from £400, all including VAT. The price for your roof depends on its size, access and what you need to know.
