Beyond the Surface: Why a Professional Roof Survey Saves You Money & Stress

You might wonder if a roof survey is truly necessary. Think of it like a health check-up for your home. Our detailed roof inspections go far beyond what you can see from your garden. We identify underlying weaknesses, minor damages, or areas of wear and tear that, if ignored, can quickly escalate into major structural problems and costly repairs down the line. Catching issues early, such as slipped tiles, failing leadwork, or compromised flat roof membranes, can save you a significant amount of money and stress in the long run. It also helps you budget for future maintenance or make informed decisions when buying or selling a property in Peterborough or any of our surrounding villages.

Who We Are

Our Thorough Roof Survey Process: What We Look For From Top to Bottom

When Foster and Son conduct a roof survey, we leave no tile unturned – figuratively, of course! Our skilled professionals meticulously inspect every critical component of your roofing system. This includes a close examination of your slates and tiles for cracks, slips, or missing pieces, assessing the integrity of your ridge and hip tiles, and checking for any deterioration of mortar or pointing. We pay particular attention to crucial areas like lead flashings around chimneys, valleys, and dormer windows, which are common points of water ingress. For flat roofs, we look for signs of blistering, cracking, or ponding water on felt, EPDM, or GRP systems. We also assess the condition of your fascias, soffits, and guttering, as these play a vital role in directing rainwater away from your property. Our goal is to uncover any existing problems and highlight potential future concerns before they become urgent.

Is It Time for a Roof Check-Up? Common Scenarios for a Roof Survey

There are several key times when having a professional roof survey by Foster and Son can be incredibly beneficial.

  • Buying a New Home: A pre-purchase roof inspection in Peterborough, particularly if the property is older or has visible roof issues, can uncover hidden problems that might affect your offer or future budget.
  • Selling Your Property: A proactive survey can identify and allow you to address minor issues before they become a sticking point for potential buyers.
  • After Severe Weather: High winds or heavy rain can cause unseen damage. A post-storm survey ensures your roof is still performing as it should.
  • Older Roofs: If your roof is approaching 20-30 years old, a survey can help you plan for future maintenance or replacement.
  • Suspected Leaks or Damp: If you notice water stains, damp patches, or a musty smell indoors, a targeted survey can pinpoint the exact source of the leak.
  • Pre-Renovation Planning: Before extending your home or adding solar panels, understanding your roof's current condition is essential.
