Professional Roof Surveys Backed by 33 Years of Experience
For more than three decades, we have been inspecting and assessing roofs across London, helping homeowners, landlords, property investors and commercial clients make informed decisions regarding their properties.
Our specialist roof surveys in Stepney utilise modern drone inspection technology alongside extensive roofing expertise to assess the condition of roof coverings, leadwork, flashings, gutters, chimneys and drainage systems. Every survey is supported by a detailed roof report containing photographic evidence and practical recommendations.
Why Choose Our Roof Condition Surveys in Stepney?
Roofing defects are not always visible from ground level and can often remain undetected until water penetration or internal damage becomes apparent. Our dedicated roof inspections are designed to identify these issues at an early stage, helping property owners avoid costly repairs and unexpected expenses.
Each survey includes a thorough assessment of all accessible roof areas and associated details. We provide independent advice and detailed reporting, allowing clients to fully understand the condition of the roof and any recommended works.
Stepney contains a diverse range of Victorian terraces, period properties, social housing developments, apartment blocks and commercial premises. These properties often feature ageing roofing materials and historic repairs that require specialist assessment.

Our works management service includes:
✔ Contractor liaison and coordination
✔ Review of quotations and specifications
✔ Quality control inspections throughout the project

Additional Peace of Mind
To provide clients with a single point of contact throughout the project, deposits and stage payments can be administered through our project management service, providing additional transparency, accountability and oversight throughout the works.
Upon satisfactory completion, the appointed roofing contractor will provide a written workmanship guarantee together with any applicable manufacturer warranties and insurance-backed guarantees where available.
Protecting Your Investment
Selecting the wrong contractor can often be more costly than the roofing defect itself. Our contractor selection and project management service has been developed to reduce risk, improve workmanship standards and ensure that roofing works are completed professionally, safely and in accordance with the agreed specification.
Whether you are a homeowner, landlord, property investor or commercial property owner in East London or North London, we help ensure that the right contractor is appointed and that the works identified during your roof survey are delivered to the highest possible standard.

Don't Exchange Contracts Until You Know the Condition of the Roof
Independent Roof inspections, drone
surveys and professional roof reports for
homebuyers in Stepney
Many property buyers rely solely on a HomeBuyers Report or building survey, only to discover significant roofing issues after completion. Unfortunately, roofs are often one of the least thoroughly inspected parts of a property during the purchasing process.
Our specialist pre-purchase roof surveys focus specifically on assessing the roof and identifying defects that may not be highlighted within a standard property survey. This provides buyers with a far clearer understanding of the roof's condition before exchanging contracts.
Across Stepney, we frequently identify ageing roof coverings, defective leadwork, deteriorated flashings, drainage problems, water ingress, failed flat roofing systems and historic repairs that have reached the end of their service life.
Understanding these issues before purchasing a property can help buyers negotiate effectively, budget accurately for future works and avoid unexpected roofing costs after moving into their new home.

- Tiled Roofs

- Felt Roofs

Frequently Asked Questions
How much does a roof condition survey cost?
Our domestic roof condition surveys start from £475 + VAT and include a drone roof inspection, photographic evidence and a detailed written roof report. If we subsequently carry out any recommended roofing works, we will deduct £200from the survey fee.
Why should I have a roof survey before buying a property?
A roof is one of the most expensive parts of any property to repair or replace. Our pre-purchase roof surveys help identify hidden defects, maintenance requirements and potential repair costs before exchange of contracts, helping buyers make informed decisions.
Are roof surveys better than a HomeBuyers Survey?
A HomeBuyers Survey provides a general assessment of a property's condition, whereas our specialist roof surveys focus entirely on the roof. In our experience, many roofing defects are either overlooked or only briefly referenced within standard property surveys.
Can a roof survey help me negotiate the purchase price?
Yes. Many of our clients use our roof reports to support negotiations before exchange of contracts. Identifying roofing defects early can potentially save thousands of pounds in unexpected repair costs.
What areas do you cover?
We provide roof condition surveys, drone roof inspections and roof reports throughout East London and North London, including Hackney, Islington, Tower Hamlets, Bethnal Green, Bow, Stratford, Shoreditch, Whitechapel, Canary Wharf and surrounding areas.
What happens if repairs are required?
If defects are identified, we can provide a detailed quotation for the recommended works. We also offer a contractor selection and project management service, helping clients obtain quotations from fully vetted roofing contractors and manage projects through to completion.
