Who We Are
What Our Comprehensive Roof Survey Will Reveal
Our experienced roofers carry out a meticulous inspection, whether using our drone technology or a hands-on approach where safe and necessary. A Foster and Son roof survey delves deep to assess the integrity of your entire roofing system. We meticulously check:
- Roof Covering: Looking for cracked, missing, or displaced tiles and slates, assessing their general condition and identifying any signs of wear.
- Flashings: Inspecting leadwork around chimneys, valleys, and wall junctions for splits or deterioration that could lead to leaks.
- Flat Roofs: Checking for cracks, blistering, ponding water, or seam failures on felt, EPDM, or GRP systems.
- Gutters, Fascias & Soffits: Ensuring your roofline components are clear, properly aligned, and free from damage, crucial for effective rainwater management.
- Chimneys: Assessing brickwork for repointing needs, checking chimney pots, and ensuring lead soakers are secure.
- Loft Space: If accessible, we look inside for signs of water ingress, condensation, and adequate ventilation.
We provide you with a comprehensive report, detailing our findings and offering clear, actionable recommendations.

Who Benefits from a Professional Roof Inspection?
A roof survey isn't just for when you suspect a problem; it’s a wise investment for various scenarios:
- Home Buyers: Get an independent, expert assessment of the roof’s condition before you commit to buying a property in Stamford, Bourne, or any of the surrounding villages. It can reveal hidden issues not covered by a standard survey, giving you strong negotiation power or helping you avoid a costly purchase.
- Home Sellers: A pre-sale roof survey allows you to address any issues beforehand, providing potential buyers with confidence and speeding up the sale process.
- Property Owners: Whether you own a period property in Grantham or a modern build in King's Lynn, regular inspections can identify minor issues before they escalate into major, expensive repairs.
- Insurance Claims: Our detailed reports are invaluable for supporting insurance claims related to storm damage or other incidents.
- Planned Renovations: Understand your roof's capacity and condition before undertaking extensions or major works.

FAQ
Frequently Asked Roof Survey Questions
Answers to common questions about our Roof Survey
What is a roof survey?
A roof survey is a detailed inspection of your roof's condition. Our expert will examine every aspect, including the tiles or slates, flat roof coverings, chimneys, flashing, gutters, fascias, and the underlying structure where accessible. The goal is to identify any current problems, potential future issues, and assess the roof's overall lifespan.
Why would I need a roof survey?
There are a few common reasons. If you're buying a new home, a pre-purchase roof survey is essential to avoid any nasty surprises. You might also need one for an insurance claim, if you're planning a major renovation like a loft conversion, or simply if you have concerns about the age or condition of your current roof and want a professional opinion.
What is a drone roof survey and what are the benefits?
A drone roof survey uses a high-resolution camera mounted on a drone to inspect your roof from every angle. It's incredibly useful for safely inspecting hard-to-reach areas like tall chimneys, church spires, or the roofs of large buildings without the expense and disruption of scaffolding. It’s quick, safe, and provides us with detailed images and video to complete our assessment.
Can I use your survey for a homebuyer report?
Absolutely. We provide detailed reports that are perfect for homebuyers. Our survey will give you a clear, expert assessment of the roof's condition on the property you intend to purchase. This information can be vital for your peace of mind and for negotiating with the seller if any significant work is required.
How long does a survey take and what do I receive?
A standard residential roof survey typically takes around one to two hours on-site, depending on the size and complexity of the roof. Afterwards, we will provide you with a comprehensive report detailing our findings, complete with photographs of any problem areas. We'll give you a clear explanation of what we've found and provide a no-obligation quote for any recommended repair or replacement work.
