What Matters to Us Technical knowledge can be developed. The characteristics we will not compromise on are: Reliability. Professionalism. Integrity. Attention to detail. Our surveyors represent UK Roof Surveys in clients' homes and are trusted to provide independent professional opinions that can influence significant property decisions.

Complex or unusual findings can be escalated to senior technical support. Career Development UK Roof Surveys is developing its surveying operation nationally. For the right person, this role therefore offers the opportunity to progress beyond residential surveying into areas including: Senior Roof Surveyor Commercial roof inspections Complex defect diagnosis Housing portfolio condition surveys Contractor recommendation validation Post-works quality assurance Surveyor training and supervision Technical report review and quality assurance We are looking for someone who wants to develop with the company rather than simply complete a daily list of appointments.

We do not undertake the roofing works we recommend. Our inspection fee remains the same whether our conclusion is that a roof requires replacement, repair, monitoring or no immediate work. This allows our surveyors to concentrate on one thing: Establishing what the evidence actually shows. We combine specialist roofing knowledge with structured inspection, photographic evidence and professional reporting to give clients an independent assessment of one of the most important components of their property. Apply Please submit your CV together with a brief summary of your surveying, building or roofing experience. We welcome applications from established surveyors as well as experienced roofing professionals who have successfully transitioned, or are looking to transition, into professional inspection work.
