New roof snagging for homes and businesses in Buriton
Our inspection covers the slates or tiles, ridges, verges, hips and valleys, along with the flashings and ventilation. At the eaves we check how the underlay is dressed into the gutter, where it can be seen, and we look at the gutters too. The report sets out what we found with photos. We also note debris left behind and any damage to other parts of the building. We survey replacement roofs, new flat roofs and flashings and valleys, and the problems we are asked to look at most are underlay at the eaves left exposed and poorly finished verges.
Older buildings in small places like Buriton may be listed or in a conservation area. If so, re-roofing in different materials may need consent, so check with the council before work starts. Whether you’re buying or signing off new roofing, it is worth knowing where you stand, as well as what condition the roof is in. England has around 10,000 conservation areas and about 500,000 listed buildings.
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.

FAQs for Buriton
Does a conservation area affect roof work in Buriton?
For listing, use Historic England’s list; for conservation areas, ask the council. The answer matters most when a change of material is on the cards.
Is Buriton in the area you cover?
We do. The survey and report are the same in Buriton as anywhere else, and visits run on weekdays and weekends.
How do I arrange new roof snagging in Buriton?
Just ring 07833 053749 or drop us an email. After a few questions, we confirm the price and fix a day.
When should I book new roof snagging?
Once the roofer says the job is done, ideally before you pay in full. That gives time for any snags to be put right.
Will you check every nail and clip?
No. We don’t open up the new roof so hidden fixings are not visible to us. The report says what could and couldn’t be seen.
Do you carry professional indemnity insurance?
Our cover is professional indemnity plus public liability, and details are available on request.
What’s the price of a snagging inspection?
Our packages start from £150 for Basic, £250 for Standard and £400 for Premium, inc. VAT. Just phone 07833 053749 or use the contact form for a price.
Why act early in Buriton
Leaving debris in gutters can cause overflows that soak walls. Finding it now is simpler than tracing damp later. Around Buriton, older homes often have old roof timbers, and water through a failed covering can rot timber if it is left.
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 can help you choose.

Landlords, agents and block managers in Buriton
If you own several properties, you can book surveys for several addresses. To discuss a number of properties, phone 07833 053749 or drop us an email with the addresses.
Where a roof is shared: access has to be agreed with whoever owns or manages the building. Mention it when you get in touch and we’ll plan the survey around it.
How the survey works
A survey visit follows a simple order: we hear what you’ve seen, look at the roof from every safe viewpoint, take photos as we go and make notes for the report. Most visits take between one and two hours for a typical new house roof, longer where the roof is large or complicated. Somewhere as small as Buriton, access is frequently the only tricky part. 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.
- We agree what to focus on, like 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
- Keep pets inside or away from the areas we are looking at
- Clear the way to the loft hatch
- Leave side gates unlocked

Tips from our surveys
Over many surveys, some simple habits stand out as worth the effort:
- Let your roofer know an inspection is planned
- Check before your warranty period ends
- Keep the contract and invoices together
- Walk round the house to look for knock-on damage
You receive a written report with photos of each snag and written recommendations. You can send it straight to your roofer.
Agree the snagging inspection with your roofer before the job starts. Everyone then knows what to expect and leaves time for snags to be fixed.
Buriton homes and their roofs
Some Hampshire villages still have thatched roofs. Across the South East, older homes tend to have slate or clay tiles, and many later ones concrete tiles. The covering on a house you’re buying, or on a roof just finished, tells us where to look hardest. Historic houses like Uppark, about 3 miles south-east, show how far back building in the area around Buriton goes. If your house is among 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.
For landlords with property near Petersfield station, the roof is worth checking before you add another property to a portfolio or pay a roofer in full. Take an older house close to Church of St Mary: the roof may have had decades of patch repairs, and the survey shows where they are.

How the survey changes by roof type
Clay and concrete tiles
Tiled roofs often have snags at the verges and eaves. They get close attention.
Flashings
Chimney flashings are a frequent source of leaks, so we look at them closely.
Can I check my roof myself?
It’s useful to keep a record: when leaks happen, ground-level photos and any past roof work. Send it with your enquiry and it will help the survey.
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.
