New roof snagging for homes and businesses in Ansteadbrook
Our inspection covers the slates or tiles, ridges, verges, hips and valleys, along with the flashings and ventilation. We check the underlay at the eaves where it’s visible as well as the gutters. The report sets out what we found with photographs. Any debris left behind or damage to other parts is recorded too. We survey ridges and verges, flashings and valleys and new flat roofs, and people most frequently book us about verge tiles or slates not secured and damage to other parts of the building.
Older buildings in small places like Ansteadbrook may be listed or in a conservation area. If so, re-roofing in different materials may need consent, so check with the council before work starts. Whether you are buying or signing off new roofing, it is worth knowing where you stand. England has around 10,000 conservation areas and about 500,000 listed buildings.
What you get is a clear record of the new roof on the day we saw it. It is useful right away, and a good reference for later, for example when you want to check whether anything has changed.

Common questions in Ansteadbrook
Do you carry out roof surveys in Ansteadbrook?
We do. The survey and report are the same in Ansteadbrook as anywhere else.
How do I find out if my home in Ansteadbrook is listed?
You can check whether a building is listed on Historic England’s list, and your council can tell you if it’s in a conservation area. If a home is listed, changes that affect its special interest need listed building consent, and in a conservation area re-roofing in different materials may need permission.
Can you inspect the roof on a new-build home?
Yes, the inspection works the same as for a re-roof. You get a photo report of any snags for you to pass to your builder.
Can you see the fixings under the tiles?
No. We do not open up the new roof, so fixings under the coverings can’t be checked. We note what couldn’t be seen.
Do you carry out surveys on Saturdays and Sundays?
Surveys run seven days a week. To arrange a date, ring 07833 053749 or use the contact form.
Is this a RICS survey?
No. Our survey is a roof survey, not a RICS Level 2 or Level 3 survey of the whole building. It focuses on the roof, so it sits alongside a building survey rather than replacing it.
Will you fly a drone over my roof?
Yes, where it is applicable. Our sub-250g drone is flown by a CAA-registered operator with a Flyer ID and Operator ID, and the airspace and weather are checked before every flight.

What happens if roof problems are left?
Specific, photographed snags are easier to discuss than a vague worry. It keeps the focus on what can be seen. In a place like Ansteadbrook, a barn or garage roof left to fail puts whatever is inside at risk. It is worth including them in a survey before a winter does the damage.
Our price is from £150, including VAT. Basic starts from £150, Standard from £250 and Premium from £400, VAT included.

New roof snagging in Ansteadbrook: local notes
There are about 500,000 buildings on England’s list of listed buildings, and around 10,000 conservation areas. If your home is listed, changes that affect its special interest need listed building consent, and in a conservation area re-roofing in different materials may need permission, so the council is the place to ask. Many older homes in Surrey have handmade clay tiles and tile-hung upper walls. A few of Surrey’s oldest buildings have heavy Horsham stone slab roofs. Each material has its own typical faults, which is what a buyer or the owner of a new roof needs to know about.

Choosing a roof surveyor
- Whether the loft space is looked at, where there is one
- Their track record with similar roofs
- Do they have a CAA Flyer ID and Operator ID for drone work?
- Are they insured for the work?
What we do, step by step
We do not take risks to get a closer look. We inspect what can safely be seen, and if part of the roof can’t be seen, the report says so. The survey typically takes roughly 1–2 hours for a typical new house roof, longer where the roof is large or complicated. Somewhere as small as Ansteadbrook, access is often the only tricky part. Mention any outbuildings, barns or garages you want included, and anything about the roof you already know. Visits can be on weekdays, Saturdays or Sundays.
- We agree what to focus on, such as a payment date or a warranty period ending.
- We inspect as far as safe access allows.
- Each detail at ridges, verges, valleys and flashings is looked at.
- Debris and damage to other parts are recorded.
- We send a written report you can pass on.
Getting ready for the survey
- Jot down any questions you want answered
- Keep pets in another room
- Mention any parking restrictions on your street

Keep a simple record: dates of leaks, photos from the ground and any work done on the roof. Send it with your enquiry, as it helps us focus the survey.
If you have a loft with safe access, take a look inside. Take a torch and only step on boards or joists, checking for stains, damp wood or chinks of daylight.
