About our new roof snagging in Breamore
Our inspection covers the slates or tiles, ridges, verges, hips and valleys plus flashings and roof ventilation. At the eaves we check how the underlay is dressed into the gutter, where it can be seen as well as the gutters. You get a photo report of what we found. Any debris left behind or damage to other parts is recorded too. If you’ve noticed tiles or slates sitting out of line and missing or blocked roof ventilation, we can find out what’s behind it.
For a small place like Breamore, the visit is planned like any other: it just means planning the journey and access beforehand. Mention any outbuildings, barns or garages with roofs you’d like looked at as you book. Whether you are buying or checking new work, the same care goes into it. Visits can be booked on weekdays, Saturdays and Sundays.
The report is written in plain words, so you do not need to be a roofer to follow it. Each point is backed by a photo where possible, and recommendations are put with the most urgent first where relevant.

What happens if roof problems are left?
Raising snags before the final payment is usually simpler. Once the job is paid and the roofer has moved on it can be harder to get them back. A snagging report gives you something specific to raise. Around Breamore, older homes frequently have old roof timbers, where water from a failed roof can cause rot if it’s left.

How the survey works
Before we start, tell us why you’ve booked: buying, a leak, storm damage, new work or just wanting to know where things stand. It helps us focus on what matters most to you. Most visits take roughly 1–2 hours for a house, or half a day or so for a commercial building. In a small place like Breamore, access is typically the main thing to plan. 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.
- First, we note any deadlines and concerns.
- We inspect as far as safe access allows.
- We work through ridges, verges, valleys and flashings.
- Debris and damage to other parts are recorded.
- You receive a report to share with your roofer.
Getting ready for the survey

New roof snagging in Breamore: local notes
A number of Hampshire villages keep thatched roofs on their older buildings. In this part of the South East, older roofs are mostly slate or clay tile and many newer ones concrete tile. Whether you are buying or checking new roofing work, knowing the materials helps make sense of what the inspection finds. About 1 mile north-west lies Breamore House, a reminder of how long the area around Breamore has been built on. On older houses around here, roofs often carry the marks of earlier repairs, from replaced slates to new lead, and any change of roofing material on a listed home needs checking with the council first.

What we’re asked to look at in Breamore
Snags happen on many building jobs. Fiddly details are often where things go wrong, particularly when the weather is against them.
People usually book a survey when they’ve noticed one of these:
- Flashings not properly dressed or fixed
- Vents that weren’t fitted or are covered
- Untidy or loose verge details
- Ridge and hip tiles not properly fixed
The streets around a church like St Boniface are frequently among the oldest in a place, and if you own one of the older houses nearby, a survey will show how the roof has been repaired before, which helps you judge what’s coming.
Before you book anyone
- Their drone registration, if they fly one
- What experience they bring
- Will they check the loft as well as the outside?
- How soon the report will arrive
What you can safely check yourself
Look up at the roof after a storm, from the ground: broken slates or tiles in the garden, gaps along the ridge or loose lead are signs to note. Leave anything above ground level to a survey.
Keep a simple record: when leaks happen, ground-level photos and any past roof work. Send it with your enquiry, as it helps us focus the survey.
Breamore questions
Do you carry out roof surveys in Breamore?
Yes, Breamore is one of the places we work. Every survey there gets the same written report with photographs.
Is Breamore within the area you cover?
Yes, Breamore is on our map. A small place gets exactly the same survey as a big one.
Will you check the loft?
If it’s needed and safe to reach, yes. We look for staining, damp, daylight and signs of movement, as far as the space allows.
Do you carry out surveys on Saturdays and Sundays?
Visits run seven days a week in the daytime. Let us know your preferred days when you book.
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 as you book.
Do you lift tiles to check the fixings?
No, we do not disturb the new coverings. Fixings and underlay under the slates or tiles are hidden so we focus on what can be seen.
What’s the best time to have a new roof checked?
Before the final payment is best, while the roofer is still on hand. If that is passed, book before any defects or warranty period ends.

What we look for on each type of roof
Underlay and ventilation
The underlay should be dressed into the gutter at the eaves so water drains away. We check it where it can be seen.
Flashings
Loose or badly dressed flashings are a common snag. They’re recorded with photos.
