Local roofs and buyers in Crondall
Historic houses such as Farnham Castle, about 2.7 miles east, show how far back building in the area around Crondall goes. Older roofs in the wider area can hide decades of patch repairs, so the detail matters. In Surrey, older roofs are frequently handmade clay tile, with tile-hanging on many upper walls. A few of Surrey’s oldest buildings have heavy Horsham stone slab roofs. Material and age explain a lot of what turns up on the day, whether the roof is old or brand new.
If your home is one of the older ones in the streets near Church of All Saints, older patch repairs can hide behind a tidy front slope, and the survey looks past them.

About our new roof snagging in Crondall
A snag is a fault or unfinished detail left when work is done. On a roof, snags are often at the edges and junctions where the work is most fiddly. We inspect as far as can be seen safely and photograph each snag. Loose ridges, untidy verges, badly dressed flashings and leftover debris are typical snags. We survey new-build homes, loft conversions and dormers and ridges and verges, and common reasons people get in touch are offcuts and broken tiles left behind and signs of condensation in the roof space.
For a small place like Crondall, the visit is planned like any other: the journey, parking and access are simply agreed in advance. If there are outbuildings with roofs you want checked, mention them when booking, so the visit can be planned around them. Buyers and owners of new roofs get the same approach as anywhere. Weekday and weekend visits are both available.
Nothing in the report is left vague: where something needs attention, it says so plainly.

What this survey can’t tell you
Some things can’t be seen without opening up the roof, and that sets some limits:
- Legal advice on your contract
- Areas out of view from every safe viewpoint
- Estimates of what fixes will cost
If in doubt, call 07833 053749 or send us an email and we will point you to the right survey. What a survey covers and doesn’t.

What we are asked to look at in Crondall
Work at height can mark walls, crack lower roofs or loosen gutters. We look for knock-on damage, not just the new roof.
We are often asked to look at:
- Underlay not dressed into the gutter
- Gutters blocked by building debris
- Cracked or slipped new tiles or slates
- Missing or blocked roof ventilation
Landlords with a home close to Farnham station may find that a written report helps before buying a rental or paying for a new roof on one.
Questions to ask before you book
- How long they’ve been surveying roofs
- Is there a chance to talk the report through?
- Whether the inside of the roof is included
- What they will not be able to tell you
The survey, step by step
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 record our findings for the written report. Most visits take an hour or two for most homes, depending on how much new work there is to check. Older rural homes like those around Crondall can have a main roof, lower lean-to roofs and outbuildings all joined together. Each part is looked at from wherever it can safely be seen, and anything we cannot see is noted.
- First, we note any deadlines and concerns.
- We inspect as far as safe access allows.
- Each detail at ridges, verges, valleys and flashings is looked at.
- Debris and damage to other parts are recorded.
- We send a written report you can pass on.
Getting ready for the survey
- Let us know where we can park nearby
- Dig out any old roof reports or invoices
- If the roof is shared, arrange access with whoever manages the building
How to book
A quick phone call is normally the easiest start: call 07833 053749 or email us and we’ll ask a few questions about the roof. The price is agreed before a date is set.
Advice
Surveys for landlords and agents in Crondall
Landlords, agents and building managers in Crondall and across Surrey can book any of our surveys. For a price for a let property or a block, phone 07833 053749 or email us.
For a freeholder or residents’ company, a roof report is a sound basis for a maintenance plan, with the most urgent items set out first.
What you can safely check yourself
Your own check is a good start, but it isn’t a survey. You will not see flashings, valleys or the backs of chimneys properly from ground level, and those are details a survey looks at closely.
Watch the gutters in a downpour, from a window or the ground. Overflowing water can point to a blockage or a sagging run.

Common questions in Crondall
Do you cover smaller places like Crondall?
Yes. Crondall is within the area we cover, which takes in towns, villages and rural addresses. We cover the whole of London and South East England. Let us know about access, parking and anything unusual about getting there as you book.
Do you cover Crondall?
Yes. We survey roofs across London and South East England, and Crondall is part of that. Just phone 07833 053749 or send us an email and let us know about the property, and we will talk through which survey suits.
Will you check every nail and clip?
No. We do not open up the new roof so hidden fixings are not visible to us. The report says what could and couldn’t be seen.
How soon after the work should I book a snagging inspection?
Ideally before you make the final payment so snags can be raised while the job is still open. Otherwise, book before your defects or warranty period runs out.
Will you fly a drone over my roof?
Yes, where it applies and safe. We are a CAA-registered drone operator (Flyer ID and Operator ID), flying a sub-250g drone. It is included in the Drone Roof Survey and, where applicable, the Premium Survey.
What insurance do you have?
Our cover is professional indemnity plus public liability, and details are available on request.
Can you inspect the roof on a new-build home?
Yes. We check new-build roofs from safe vantage points and the loft space and record any snags. Book before the defects period runs out if you can.
Leave it or get it looked at?
Small faults on a new roof can grow. A slipped verge tile or a loose flashing may let water through in the first heavy storms. Spotting them early gives the roofer a chance to put them right. In a place like Crondall, a barn or garage roof left to fail puts whatever is inside at risk. It is worth including them in a survey before a winter does the damage.
Prices start from £150, with VAT included, for a Basic Survey. Standard is from £250 and Premium from £400. We confirm the price for your roof before you book.
