What this survey can’t tell you

Every survey has limits, and we’d rather be clear about that before you book. Bear these in mind:

  • How the roof will perform for years to come
  • Details hidden from sight
  • What’s under the new coverings

If in doubt, phone 07833 053749 or send us an email and we will point you to the right survey. What a survey covers and does not.

Roof types and parts we check

New roof snagging in Crockerhill: what you get

Ideally, book snagging before you settle the final invoice while the roofer can still come back easily. If you’ve already paid, check before any defects or warranty period runs out. That gives you time to raise any snags. You get a written list of snags with photos, ready to pass on before the deadline. Common reasons to book are poorly finished verges and flashings not properly dressed or fixed, on replacement roofs, new-build homes and ridges and verges.

Being in a small place like Crockerhill makes no difference to the inspection itself: it just means planning the journey and access beforehand. If there are outbuildings with roofs you want checked, mention them when booking, so the visit can be planned around them. Whether you are buying or checking new work, the same care goes into it. Visits can be booked seven days a week.

Pictures do a lot of the work in our reports, so you can see each defect rather than just read about it. Anything out of sight on the day is listed as such.

Crockerhill homes and their roofs

Goodwood House, about 2.6 miles north-west, is one of the historic houses in the wider area around Crockerhill. Older roofs in the wider area can hide decades of patch repairs, so the detail matters. Handmade clay tiles and tile-hung upper walls are typical of older Sussex houses. Horsham stone slab roofs survive on some old Sussex buildings. For a purchase or a newly finished roof, the materials decide which details matter most.

If you let a flat or house near Barnham station, a survey before purchase, or before signing off a new roof, saves surprises once a tenant moves in. The streets around a church such as The Parish Church of St Mary are frequently among the oldest in a place, and if your house is among the older ones nearby, a survey will show how the roof has been repaired before, which helps you judge what’s coming.

The survey, step by step

On the day, we begin with a quick chat about the roof and anything that is worrying you. After that, we check everything we can see safely, using the ground, windows, the loft and a drone where applicable. The survey usually takes about one to two hours for a typical new house roof, longer where the roof is large or complicated. Somewhere as small as Crockerhill, access is often the only tricky part. Let us know about outbuildings, past repairs and any leaks you’ve noticed. Weekday and weekend visits are available.

  1. First, we note any deadlines and concerns.
  2. We inspect as far as safe access allows.
  3. Each detail at ridges, verges, valleys and flashings is looked at.
  4. We check the gutters, lower roofs and walls for debris or damage.
  5. We send a written report you can pass on.

Preparing for the visit

  • Leave a clear route to the loft
  • Have any paperwork from past roof work to hand
  • Keep pets in another room

Related advice

Can I check my roof myself?

After strong wind, take a look from the pavement or garden: broken slates or tiles in the garden, gaps along the ridge or loose lead are signs to note. Don’t go up yourself.

Watch the gutters in a downpour, from a window or the ground. Overflowing water can point to a blockage or a sagging run.

Tips from our surveys

You don’t need to be a roofer to help. Here’s what helps most:

  • Check before your warranty period ends
  • Let your roofer know an inspection is planned
  • Arrange the inspection before settling the final bill
  • Put any issues to your roofer in writing

Questions about the findings are welcome. The Standard Survey includes a follow-up consultation, and the Premium Survey includes an in-person one.

Agree the snagging inspection with your roofer before the job starts. Everyone then knows what to expect and time is set aside for snags.
