New roof snagging for homes and businesses in Bepton
Householders book snagging after a re-roof or roof replacement and some new-build owners want their roof looked at. We inspect each roof as far as safe access allows including from the loft and the roof where it’s safe. You then get a report with photographs to share with your roofer. We survey new flat roofs, flashings and valleys and new-build homes, and the problems we’re asked to look at most are flashings not properly dressed or fixed and verge tiles or slates not secured.
Some older homes in villages like Bepton are listed or sit in a conservation area. That can affect what materials a new roof may use, so check with the council and Historic England’s list. For a buyer or someone with a newly finished roof, it’s worth knowing which applies, as well as what condition the roof is in. There are about 500,000 listed buildings and around 10,000 conservation areas in England.
If any part of the new roof couldn’t be seen safely, we say so in the report. You’ll know exactly what was inspected and what wasn’t.

Before and after the survey
Over many surveys, some simple habits stand out as worth the effort:
- Check that gutters weren’t left full of offcuts
- Book snagging before the final payment
- Let your roofer know an inspection is planned
- File all paperwork for the new roof
How quickly the report arrives depends on the package: Basic within 48 hours, Standard in 24–48 hours and Premium the same day. That’s worth bearing in mind if a payment date is close.
Tell your roofer at the start that the work will be inspected. It sets clear expectations and time is set aside for snags.
What new roof snagging does not cover
To be straight with you, a roof survey has limits:

What we do, step by step
It helps to start with what’s prompted the survey: buying, a leak, storm damage, new work or just wanting to know where things stand. That way we can focus on what matters to you. Most visits take between one and two hours at most homes, and about three to four hours for a commercial roof. Rural addresses near Bepton can be hard to find from a postcode alone, so a few directions are welcome. The visit itself is the same as anywhere else.
- First, you let us know what the roofer did and any concerns you have.
- We look at the tiles or slates, ridges, hips and verges from safe vantage points.
- We check valleys, flashings and gutters, and the underlay at the eaves where it’s visible.
- The roof space is checked where safe, along with any mess or damage left after the work.
- You get a photo report listing the snags we found.
Preparing for the visit
- Make sure we can get to the back of the property
- Let us know where we can park nearby
- Have any questions written down, so nothing gets missed

Common questions in Bepton
Will you come out to Bepton?
Yes, Bepton is on our map. Villages and rural addresses get the same survey as a town house.
Do you cover Bepton?
We do. Every survey there gets the same written report with photos, and visits run on weekdays and weekends.
Are you insured?

What does a new roof inspection include?
Coverings, ridges, verges, hips, valleys and flashings are all checked, along with ventilation, gutters and the underlay at the eaves. We look for leftover debris and knock-on damage too.
How much is new roof snagging?
Our packages start from £150 for Basic, £250 for Standard and £400 for Premium, including VAT. For a price for your roof, call 07833 053749 or drop us an email.
Can you survey in bad weather?
Light rain does not typically stop a survey. Heavy rain or strong wind can ground a drone and make the roof unsafe, so we will agree a new date if the weather is not suitable.
Do you get involved if the roofer disagrees with the report?
No, our role is to record the roof’s condition. Any dispute stays between you and your roofer or builder, and you may want legal advice for that.
Buying a home or a new roof in Bepton
Handmade clay tiles and tile-hung upper walls are typical of older Sussex houses. Horsham stone slab roofs survive on some old Sussex buildings. Whether you’re buying or checking new roofing work, knowing the materials helps make sense of what the inspection finds. About 2.7 miles north-east lies Cowdray House, a reminder of how long the area around Bepton has been built on. If your home is one of the older ones, expect a mix of original materials and later repairs on the roof, and the council can say whether a home is in a conservation area.
If you live in an older home near The Parish Church of St Mary, the roof’s history matters as much as its looks, and a survey brings the past repairs to light.
