New roof snagging for homes and businesses in Bisley
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’s safe. A photo report follows, ready to share with your roofer or builder. If you are worried about verge tiles or slates not secured and loose or badly finished ridge tiles, a survey will tell you what’s going on.
In a smaller place like Bisley, some houses face open ground, 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 proper look. On an exposed roof, a loose ridge or verge soon becomes a bigger job.
The Standard Survey adds moisture detection, a structural check and a follow-up consultation. The Premium Survey goes further, with thermal imaging, drone inspection where it applies, structural analysis and an in-person consultation.

Common roof problems in Bisley
Debris left behind is common after roof work. Broken tiles, offcuts and nails can block gutters and on extension roofs.
Signs worth acting on include:
- Signs of condensation in the roof space
- Flashings not properly dressed or fixed
- Verge tiles or slates not secured
- Gutters or fascias damaged during the job
If yours is one of the older homes in the streets near Church of St John the Baptist, the roof’s history matters as much as its looks, and a survey brings the past repairs to light.

How the survey works
Once we have finished looking, we write up our findings as a photo-illustrated written report, sent to you by email. As for time on site, most surveys take about one to two hours for a typical new house roof, longer where the roof is large or complicated. For a survey in Bisley, we agree the time, the access and parking before the day. Visits can be on weekdays, Saturdays or Sundays. Tell us about any garages, outbuildings or extensions you want included.
- First, we note any deadlines and concerns.
- The roof is inspected from the ground, vantage points and the roof where safe.
- Each detail at ridges, verges, valleys and flashings is looked at.
- We check the gutters, lower roofs and walls for debris or damage.
- You receive a report to share with your roofer.
Before the survey
- If you are buying, let the agent know when we are coming
- Jot down any questions you want answered
- For a flat or shared roof, check access with the building owner or managing agent

Why act early in Bisley
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 Bisley can face more weather, so a loose ridge or verge soon lets rain in. Each storm lifts it a little further.
Our price is from £150, including VAT. Packages run from Basic at £150 through Standard at £250 to Premium at £400, including VAT, and we will tell you which fits.
Why choose Independent Roof Survey in Bisley

New roof snagging around Bisley
Before planning roof work on an older home, find out whether it’s listed or in a conservation area. Changes that affect a listed building’s special interest need listed building consent, and councils can also use Article 4 directions to control changes in conservation areas. 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. Material and age explain a lot of what turns up on the day, whether the roof is old or brand new.
For landlords with property near Brookwood station, it is worth knowing a roof’s condition before you buy it, or before you sign off new roofing work on it.

What we look for on each type of roof
Ridges, hips and verges
Verge details can be rushed, so we check them carefully.
Underlay and ventilation
Roof ventilation reduces the risk of condensation. We check for vents where they’ve been fitted.
Should I look at the roof myself first?
After heavy rain, check ceilings and the tops of walls for new stains. Photograph them and note the date, as it helps a surveyor trace the cause.
If you have a loft with safe access, take a look inside. Use a torch and stay on the joists or boards, and look for staining, damp timber or daylight coming through.
Bisley: your questions answered
Do you cover Bisley?
Yes, Bisley is within the area we cover. We work right across London and South East England. Just phone 07833 053749 or drop us an email and let us know about the property, and we’ll talk through which survey suits.
Will you come out to Bisley?
Yes, we do. We cover the whole of London and South East England, from towns to the smallest villages. Longer journeys are simply planned beforehand.
How long have you been surveying roofs?
Over 20 years and more than 5,000 surveys, across London and South East England.
Do I have to be there for the survey?
It depends on what we need to see. For inside areas and the loft space, someone has to give us access; we will agree the details when booking.
Can you inspect my roof with a drone?
Where it helps and it is safe, yes. Whether we can fly on the day depends on the weather and the airspace rules. We are a CAA-registered drone operator.
Do you get involved if the roofer disagrees with the report?
No, we report on the roof and do not take sides. Any dispute stays between you and your roofer or builder, and you may want legal advice for that.
Will you walk on the roof?
Not always. Some roofs are too steep or fragile to walk on safely. Safe viewpoints, the loft and a drone where applicable let us see the rest, and the report records anything we couldn’t see.
