New roof snagging in Coneyhurst
Replacing a roof costs a lot, so it is worth having it checked before the final payment. We look for snags, faults and anything left unfinished on the roof and around the property. You get a written report with photos that you can pass to your roofer. It is an independent check, separate from the roofer who did the work. We are frequently asked to look into cracked or slipped new tiles or slates and damage to other parts of the building, on new-build homes, ridges and verges and replacement roofs.
Being in a small place like Coneyhurst 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. Buyers and owners of new roofs get the same approach as anywhere. Visits can be booked seven days a week.
Where we cannot see part of the new roof, the report says so. You’ll know exactly what was inspected and what wasn’t.

What happens on the day
We check the roof from outside and, where it’s relevant and there is safe access, from inside the loft space too. In the loft, the signs we look for are staining, damp, daylight and sagging, as far as the space allows. All in, the survey typically takes about one to two hours for a typical new house roof, longer where the roof is large or complicated. Older roofs in small places like Coneyhurst can have low, tight loft spaces, so it helps to know whether there is a loft hatch and how easy it is to reach. We only go where it is safe.
- You let us know what work was done and when.
- 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.
Getting ready for the survey
- Keep pets out of the way during the survey
- Check the loft hatch can be reached
- For a flat or shared roof, check access with whoever owns or manages the building

How we price new roof snagging
Survey packages start from £150, including VAT. The price for your roof depends on:
- Any need for thermal images or a drone flight
- Height and safe access
- The roof’s overall size
- Extra roofs, like extensions, dormers or garages
What a survey costs comes down to the roof itself: how big it is, how high it is, the number of separate roofs and how it can be reached and seen safely. New roof snagging starts from £150, including VAT.
Helping us price your survey
Before you get in touch, it helps to have:
- Any photos you have, taken from the ground or a window
- The property’s address and postcode
- The kind of building and roof involved
- Anything about access we should know
New roof snagging starts from £150, including VAT. The exact figure depends on the roof and the package, so ring 07833 053749 or email us with the details.
Honest limits
No survey can tell you everything, and it is better to know them up front. Keep these in mind:
- Parts of the roof we cannot see safely
- Repair costs for putting snags right
- Nails and clips under the slates or tiles
If you’re not sure which survey you need, call 07833 053749 or use the contact form and we’ll give you a straight answer. What a survey covers and doesn’t.
Roof types and parts we check
- New-build homes
- Loft conversions and dormers
- Ridges and verges
- Flashings and valleys
- New flat roofs
- Replacement roofs
Should I look at the roof myself first?
What you can’t do safely is get up close. Slates, tiles, flat roofs and rooflights can give way. That’s where a survey comes in.
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.
What we are asked to look at in Coneyhurst
Scaffolding and materials can damage other parts of a building. We look for knock-on damage, not just the new roof.
A survey can pick up problems such as:
- Underlay not dressed into the gutter
- Cracked lower roofs or marked walls after the work
- Offcuts and broken tiles left behind
- Poorly finished verges
If you let a flat or house near Billingshurst station, a written report helps before buying a rental or paying for a new roof on one.
Choosing a roof surveyor
- Which limits apply to the survey
- Their drone registration, if they fly one
- Whether the loft is part of the inspection
- Which viewpoints they use to see the roof
