Broomhill: your questions answered
Is Broomhill in the area you cover?
We do. The survey and report are the same in Broomhill as anywhere else, and visits run on weekdays and weekends.
Does a conservation area affect roof work in Broomhill?
For listing, use Historic England’s list; for conservation areas, ask the council. It matters most if you are planning to re-roof in a different material.
How do I arrange new roof snagging in Broomhill?
To book, call 07833 053749 or drop us an email with the address, the type of property and what’s prompted the survey. We will confirm the price and find a day that suits.
Is snagging available for a new-build house roof?
Yes, the inspection works the same as for a re-roof. The report lists snags with photographs to raise with the builder.
Which days do you carry out surveys?
We carry out surveys on any day of the week. To find a day that suits you, call 07833 053749 or send us an email.
Can you survey in bad weather?
It depends on the weather and the survey. High wind or heavy rain can make access unsafe and ground a drone, so we’d move the date with you.
How many surveys have you done?
We’ve completed more than 5,000 surveys, over more than 20 years, and 98% of clients are satisfied.
New roof snagging in Broomhill: what you get
A snag is a fault or unfinished detail left when work is done. On a roof, snags are often at the edges and junctions, where the detailing is hardest. We inspect as far as can be seen safely and record what we find. Loose ridges, untidy verges, badly dressed flashings and leftover debris are typical snags. Typical surveys look at loose or badly finished ridge tiles and gaps at new flashings, on replacement roofs, loft conversions and dormers and flashings and valleys.
Being in a small place like Broomhill makes no difference to the inspection itself: the journey, parking and access are simply agreed ahead of time. Mention any outbuildings, barns or garages with roofs you’d like looked at when booking. Whether you are buying or checking new work, the same care goes into it. Weekday and weekend visits are both available.
The Standard Survey adds moisture detection, a structural check and a follow-up consultation. The Premium Survey adds thermal imaging, drone inspection where it applies, structural analysis and an in-person consultation.

What this survey can’t tell you
Our survey is not a RICS Level 2 or Level 3 survey, a structural engineer’s report or an asbestos survey. Other limits to bear in mind:
- Deciding who is at fault in a disagreement
- Parts of the roof we cannot see safely
- Fixings and underlay hidden under the coverings

What we look at
- Flashings and valleys
- New-build homes

Do you need new roof snagging in Broomhill?
Scaffolding and materials can damage other parts of a building. We look for knock-on damage, not just the new roof.
People normally book a survey when they’ve noticed something like this:
- Debris left in gutters or valleys
- Loose or badly finished ridge tiles
- Signs of condensation in the roof space
- Tiles or slates sitting out of line
Take an older house close to St Mary's Church: a survey will show how the roof has been repaired before, which helps you judge what’s coming.
Questions to ask before you book
- Whether VAT is in the quoted price
- Will the report include photos?
- How long they’ve been surveying roofs
- Which limits apply to the survey
Checking the roof from ground level
The one thing to avoid is getting up close. Slates, tiles, flat roofs and rooflights can give way. That part is for a survey, using safe viewpoints and a drone where it applies.
It helps to keep a record: dates of leaks, photos from ground level and any work done on the roof. Share it with us as you book.
Prices for new roof snagging in Broomhill
The price reflects the time and kit the roof needs. That comes down to:
- Whether it’s a home or a commercial building
- How tall the building is and how easy the roof is to see
- Extra roofs, like extensions, dormers or garages
- Chimneys, valleys, parapets and other details
A small, low roof with good viewpoints takes less time than a tall, complicated one, and the package matters as well. We will give you the figure before anything is booked.
What to let us know when you contact us
What helps most when you contact us:
- What made you get in touch
- Where any leaks, stains or damp patches show inside
- Access details, like a loft hatch or a shared roof
- Your timetable, such as an exchange date
When you’re ready to go ahead, phone 07833 053749 or drop us an email. We’ll suggest a package, agree the price and find a date.
How the survey works
We do not take risks to get a closer look. Everything that can safely be seen is inspected, and anything we can’t see is noted in the report. Most visits take an hour or two for most homes, depending on how much new work there is to check. Rural addresses near Broomhill can be hard to find from a postcode alone, so a few directions are welcome. The visit itself is the same as anywhere else.
- We start with what the roofer did and when they finished.
- We check the coverings, ridges, hips and verges from safe vantage points.
- We look at valleys, flashings, gutters and the underlay at the eaves.
- The loft space and the rest of the property are checked for problems.
- You get a photo report of each snag.
How to prepare
- Show us where any leaks or stains appear
- Check we can get to the back of the property
- If you are buying, check with the agent that we can get in
How to book
Getting a price is simple: just ring 07833 053749 or use the contact form and give us a few details about the property and we’ll recommend the right survey. The price is agreed up front.
