How new roof snagging works in Crockerhill
A new roof needs to breathe. Where vents have been fitted at the ridge or eaves, we check them and look in the roof space for condensation. We note what we can see. Without enough airflow, a roof space can suffer from condensation, so it’s worth raising early. It all goes in the report. If you’re worried about missing or blocked roof ventilation and flashings not properly dressed or fixed, a survey will tell you what’s going on, on flashings and valleys, ridges and verges and new flat roofs alike.
For a small place like Crockerhill, the visit is planned like any other: the journey, parking and access are simply agreed in advance. 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. Weekday and weekend visits are both available.
You can share the report with anyone who needs it: a seller or estate agent, an insurer, a roofer, a builder or a managing agent.

Common roof problems in Crockerhill
Most homeowners can’t get a good look at their new roof. From the pavement, many faults are invisible and you may be asked to pay anyway.
People usually book a survey after spotting one of these:
- Gutters or fascias damaged during the job
- Underlay at the eaves left exposed
- Ridge and hip tiles not properly fixed
- Loose flashings at walls or chimneys
If you own one of the older houses in the streets near Church of St Nicholas, ask the seller about past roof repairs, because older roofs frequently have patched valleys, replaced slates and reset ridges.
What to check before booking
- Which parts of the roof they’ll actually see
- Their insurance cover
- Their drone registration, if they fly one
- What they will not be able to tell you
Roof by roof
Valleys
We check valley linings for splits and poor laps as far as safe access allows.
Flashings
Flashings seal the roof to walls and chimneys. We look at how they’re dressed, fixed and pointed.
Tips that help
Here are a few things we’d tell any owner:
- Check lower roofs and walls after scaffolding comes down
- Keep warranty papers safe
- Note the end of any warranty or defects period
- Look for new stains after a downpour
Your roofer can use the report to put the snags right. If there’s a dispute, it is between you and your roofer or builder, and our part is to report what we see.
File the contract, invoices and warranty papers in one place. The report belongs with them.

- How many separate roofs there are, such as extensions, dormers and garages

New roof snagging in Crockerhill: local notes
Crockerhill lies within about 3 miles of the sea, where sea air brings more salt and stronger wind than inland. Metal fixings and flashings corrode faster in salt air, and loose ridges, slates and tiles are the first to lift in a gale, which is worth knowing before you buy or pay for new work. England has around 10,000 conservation areas and about 500,000 listed buildings. If your home is listed, changes that affect its special interest need listed building consent, and in a conservation area re-roofing in different materials may need permission, so check with the council.
If you own a rental within reach of Fareham station, a roof report gives you a clear picture before you buy or settle up with a roofer.

Crockerhill questions
Is my home in Crockerhill listed or in a conservation area?
Historic England’s list shows listed buildings, and the local council can tell you about conservation areas. If a home is listed, changes that affect its special interest need listed building consent, and in a conservation area re-roofing in different materials may need permission.
Do you cover smaller places like Crockerhill?
Yes, we do. We cover the whole of London and South East England, and smaller places are part of that. The journey is planned ahead, so it helps to know about access.
What insurance do you have?
Our cover is professional indemnity plus public liability, and details are available on request.
Do I have to be there for the survey?
Someone needs to let us in if we’re looking inside or in the loft. Access is agreed with you when booking.
Can you tell me if my roof has asbestos?
No. Asbestos surveys and testing are not part of what we do. If we see materials that could contain asbestos, like cement roof sheets or soffits on buildings from before 2000, we flag them, and recommend a specialist asbestos surveyor checks them before they’re disturbed.
What’s the best way to book?
Just ring 07833 053749 or drop us an email. We’ll ask a few questions, confirm the price and agree a date, weekday or weekend.
Do you check new-build roofs?
Yes. We check new-build roofs from safe vantage points and the roof space and record any snags. Book before the defects period runs out if you can.

How it works

- We ask what work was done and when it was finished.
- The new coverings, ridge, hips and verges are inspected where it’s safe to see them.
- We check valleys, flashings and gutters, and the underlay at the eaves where it’s visible.
- Where it is safe, we check the loft, then look for debris or damage left behind.
- The snags are written up with photos for you to share with your roofer.
