Roof Maintenance for Landlords and Letting Agents
Landlord roof work has different pressures to owner-occupier work: tenants to coordinate, evidence for the file, and a repair that doesn't come back three months later.
- Photo-documented reports for your records
- Direct tenant liaison for access
- Fixed written quotes before work starts
- Repairs that address cause, not symptom
- Planned inspections between tenancies
- One point of contact for multiple properties
Evidence you can put on file
Every visit comes back with photographs of what we found and what we did. That matters when a damp complaint escalates, when you need to show a repair was carried out promptly, or when an insurer wants to see the condition before and after. We write findings in plain English rather than trade shorthand so the report is usable by an agent or a tenant.
Fixing the cause, not the ceiling
Recurring damp complaints usually come from three places: a failed chimney flashing, a blocked or overflowing gutter, and loft condensation mistaken for a leak. All three get patched repeatedly by whoever is cheapest that week. We trace the source properly on the first visit so the same job doesn't reappear in the maintenance log every autumn.
- ▸Chimney and abutment flashing failures
- ▸Overflowing gutters saturating walls
- ▸Loft condensation misdiagnosed as a roof leak
- ▸Slipped tiles from earlier failed repairs
Between-tenancy inspections
The cheapest roof work is the work booked before it becomes an emergency. A void period is the easy window: gutters cleared, flashings checked, slipped tiles refixed and a short written condition note for the file. It costs a fraction of a winter call-out with a tenant in situ and ceiling damage to make good.
FAQs
Can you deal with the tenant directly?+
Yes — give us the contact and we'll arrange access, confirm the appointment and keep you copied in.
Do you work on multiple properties under one account?+
Yes. We can quote and invoice per property while keeping one contact and one schedule.
Can you provide a condition report for a portfolio purchase?+
We provide written roof condition reports with photographs. They're not a full structural survey, but they give you the roofing picture in detail.
How quickly can you attend a reported leak?+
Genuine active leaks are prioritised, usually same or next working day for a make-safe, with the permanent repair quoted after.
