What happens if roof problems are left?
You may not see a fault until it causes damage. An inspection before that point gives you a record of the roof as handed over. Homes in smaller places like Aston Clinton can face more weather, so a loose ridge or verge soon lets rain in. Wind gets under it and lifts more, and water follows.

New roof snagging for homes and businesses in Aston Clinton
Homeowners book snagging after a re-roof or roof replacement, and buyers of new-build homes sometimes want the roof checked. We inspect each roof as far as safe access allows including from the loft and the roof where it is safe. A photo report follows, ready to share with your roofer or builder. We are often asked to look into cracked or slipped new tiles or slates and signs of condensation in the roof space, on new flat roofs, loft conversions and dormers and ridges and verges.
Houses in smaller places like Aston Clinton can stand more in the open than those in a built-up town, so their roofs may take more wind and driving rain. Loose ridge tiles, lifted coverings and tired flashings are the kind of things that show it. Whether you’re buying or signing off new work, those edges deserve a careful look. Wind lifts anything already loose, so a small fault on an exposed roof does not stay small for long.
How fast the report arrives depends on the package: the Basic Survey within 48 hours, the Standard Survey in 24 to 48 hours and the Premium Survey on the same day.

What else we do in Aston Clinton
Should I look at the roof myself first?
What you can’t do safely is get up close. Slates, tiles, flat roofs and rooflights can give way, and a fall can be serious. That’s where a survey comes in.
Look up at the roof after a storm, from the ground: pieces of tile or slate on the ground, a gap in the ridge or a lifted flashing are all worth noting. Leave anything above ground level to a survey.
New roof snagging in Aston Clinton: local notes
Cholesbury Manor House, about 4.5 miles south-east, is one of the historic houses in the wider area around Aston Clinton. Older roofs in the wider area can hide decades of patch repairs, so the detail matters, and a listed home or one in a conservation area may need consent for changes of material. Some villages in Buckinghamshire still have thatched roofs. Slate and clay tile are the usual coverings on older South East houses, with concrete tiles on many later estates. The covering on a house you are buying, or on a roof just finished, tells us where to look hardest.
Take an older house close to St Michael and All Angels Church: the roof may have had decades of patch repairs, and the survey shows where they are. If you let a flat or house near Stoke Mandeville station, a written report helps before buying a rental or paying for a new roof on one.

Questions from Aston Clinton
Is Aston Clinton within the area you cover?
Yes. Aston Clinton is within the area we cover, which takes in towns, villages and rural addresses. We cover the whole of London and South East England. Let us know about access, parking and anything unusual about getting there when you book.
Does a conservation area affect roof work in Aston Clinton?
Check Historic England’s online list first, then ask the council about conservation areas and any Article 4 direction. It matters most if you’re planning to re-roof in a different material.
Do you carry out surveys on Saturdays and Sundays?
We carry out surveys on weekdays and at weekends. To arrange a date, phone 07833 053749 or use the contact form.
Do you look in the loft space?
If it’s needed and safe to reach, yes. Inside, we look for damp, staining, gaps and sagging, as far as the space allows.
Is this an asbestos survey?
No. Our report may flag materials that could contain asbestos, but confirming it is a job for a specialist asbestos surveyor. Buildings built or refurbished before 2000 may contain it.
Can you see the fixings under the tiles?
No. We inspect what can be seen without opening up the roof, so fixings under the coverings cannot be checked. We note what couldn’t be seen.
Will you fly a drone over my roof?
Yes, where it is applicable. Flights depend on the weather on the day and airspace rules. We hold a CAA Flyer ID and Operator ID.
What affects the price in Aston Clinton
All our prices include VAT. What changes the price is:
- The size of the roof
- House, block, shop or office
- Extra roofs, like extensions, dormers or garages
- Whether thermal imaging or a drone is needed
Prices quoted always include VAT, and the report is not charged as an extra. Prices start from £150, including VAT. Size, height and access decide where your roof falls.
Helping us price your survey
The more you tell us, the easier it is to price the survey. When you get in touch, it’s useful to mention:
- The property’s address and postcode
- Any marks or damp showing indoors
- Why you want a survey: buying, a leak, a storm or new work
- The style of property, from a terrace to a block
Getting a price is simple: just ring 07833 053749 or use the contact form, tell us about the property and we will suggest the right survey. The price is agreed up front.
For landlords and managing agents
Where a roof is shared: we need access agreed with the building owner or managing agent. Mention it when you get in touch and we’ll plan the survey around it.
We also survey roofs for businesses and commercial landlords, from shops and offices to industrial units. Larger roofs take longer, and they’re priced for the size.
How it works
Before we start, tell us why you’ve booked: a purchase, a leak, a storm, new work or simply peace of mind. That way we can focus on what matters to you. Most visits take between one and two hours at a typical home, with bigger or more complicated roofs taking longer. In a smaller place like Aston Clinton, as anywhere, the forecast plays a part: the parts that need calm, dry weather are planned around it.
- We agree what to focus on, such as a payment date or a warranty period ending.
- The roof is inspected from the ground, vantage points and the roof where safe.
- We work through ridges, verges, valleys and flashings.
- We check the gutters, lower roofs and walls for debris or damage.
- We send a written report you can pass on.
How to prepare
- Check pets are kept safely away
- Dig out any old roof reports or invoices
- Leave side gates unlocked
