About our new roof snagging in Crockhurst Street
We carry out new roof snagging in Crockhurst Street and across London and South East England. Time on site usually takes about one to two hours for a typical new house roof, longer where the roof is large or complicated. Everything visible from safe vantage points is checked, and by drone where it’s applicable. You then get a written report with photos. We inspect on weekdays and at weekends. Common reasons to book are signs of condensation in the roof space and loose or badly finished ridge tiles, across loft conversions and dormers, flashings and valleys and replacement roofs.
Some older homes in villages like Crockhurst Street are listed or sit in a conservation area. If so, re-roofing in different materials may need consent, so check with the council before work starts. Whether you are buying or signing off new roofing, it’s 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.
Every survey ends with a written report, with photographs, emailed to you. It explains the condition of the new roof, the defects we found and what we recommend.

How the survey changes by roof type
Valleys
We check valley linings for splits and poor laps where they can be seen.
Clay and concrete tiles
Well-laid tiles can last for decades. We check for cracked, uneven or poorly fixed tiles as far as can be seen.
Buying a home or a new roof in Crockhurst Street
Older houses across Kent often have handmade clay or peg tiles, and many have tile-hung walls. Oast houses and timber-framed Wealden hall houses are part of the county’s older buildings too. Whether you’re buying or checking new roofing work, knowing the materials helps make sense of what the inspection finds. Listing and conservation areas can both shape what roof work is allowed on an older home. Your council and Historic England’s list will tell you where you stand, before anyone quotes for re-roofing.
The streets around a church like Church of All Saints are often among the oldest in a place, and if your home is one of the older ones nearby, ask the seller about past roof repairs, because older roofs frequently have patched valleys, replaced slates and reset ridges.

What new roof snagging doesn’t cover

- Legal advice on your contract
- Parts of the roof we cannot see safely
- Fixings and underlay hidden under the coverings

When to book a survey in Crockhurst Street
Vents can be left out, or insulation pushed against the eaves. Poor ventilation can lead to condensation in the loft.
A survey can pick up problems such as:
- Underlay at the eaves left exposed
- Cracked or slipped new tiles or slates
- Loose flashings at walls or chimneys
- Missing or blocked roof ventilation
If you let a flat or house near Tonbridge station, a roof report gives you a clear picture before you buy or settle up with a roofer.
Questions to ask before booking
- What they will not be able to tell you
- Which viewpoints they use to see the roof
- Whether they hold professional indemnity and public liability insurance
- Whether the price includes VAT
What we do, step by step
You don’t need to do much on the day. Point out anything you’ve noticed, like stains, drips or loose pieces, and we’ll take it from there. The survey itself takes roughly 1–2 hours at a typical home, and more on a big or complicated roof. Around Crockhurst Street, older homes can have small or awkward roof spaces, so it’s useful to know whether there’s a loft hatch and how easy it is to reach. We only go where it’s safe.
- You tell us what work was done and when.
- We check the coverings, ridges, hips and verges from safe vantage points.
- Valleys, flashings, gutters and visible underlay at the eaves are checked.
- The loft space and the rest of the property are checked for problems.
- Snags are listed in a photo-illustrated written report.
Preparing for the visit
- Let us know where we can park nearby
- Gather any invoices or paperwork from past roof work
- Make sure we can get to the back of the property

Checking the roof from ground level
After strong wind, take a look from the pavement or garden: pieces of tile or slate on the ground, a gap in the ridge or a lifted flashing are all worth noting. Do not go up yourself.
Keep a simple record: when leaks happen, ground-level photos and any past roof work. Send it with your enquiry and it will help the survey.
FAQs for Crockhurst Street
Do you cover Crockhurst Street?
Yes, Crockhurst Street is within the area we cover. We cover the whole of London and South East England. Just phone 07833 053749 or use the contact form and let us know about the property, and we’ll talk through which survey suits.
Does a conservation area affect roof work in Crockhurst Street?
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.
Do you check new-build roofs?
Yes, the inspection works the same as for a re-roof. You get a photo report of any snags to raise with the builder.
What’s the best way to book?
Simply ring 07833 053749 or send us an email with the address. We’ll ask a few questions, confirm the price and agree a date, weekday or weekend.
Will you walk on the roof?
Only where it is safe to do so. We inspect whatever is safely visible: from ground level, from windows, from inside the roof space, from the roof where it’s safe and by drone where it applies. Anything we cannot see is noted in the report.
Will you fly a drone over my roof?
Where it helps and the rules allow, yes. Our sub-250g drone is flown by a CAA-registered operator with a Flyer ID and Operator ID, and every flight depends on the airspace and the weather.
