New roof snagging in Culverstone Green, Kent
New roof snagging in Culverstone Green from an independent, experienced roof surveyor. Over 5,000 surveys and 20+ years behind us.
- Debris left in gutters or valleys
- Cracked mortar at the ridge or hips
- Broken coverings left on a new roof
Tips that help
Getting the most from new roof snagging starts before we arrive and carries on afterwards. Tips:
- Check that gutters weren’t left full of offcuts
- File all paperwork for the new roof
- Book snagging before the final payment
- Let your roofer know an inspection is planned
The report gives your roofer a clear list to work through. If there is a dispute, it’s between you and your roofer or builder, and our part is to report what we see.
Watch for leaks, damp or loose pieces in the first months. Early signs are easier to raise while the work is recent.
New roof snagging for homes and businesses in Culverstone Green
A new roof is a big spend, so it makes sense to check the work before you pay the final bill. 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. We are independent of the roofer who did the job. If you’ve noticed underlay not dressed into the gutter and untidy or loose verge details, we can find out what’s behind it, whatever the roof.
Somewhere as small as Culverstone Green, older cottages, farmhouses and converted buildings often sit beside a few newer homes. Village roofs can be clay tile, slate, stone or even thatch on some older buildings. Whether you are buying or have just had a roof replaced, each material has its own checks. Older roofs may also have old felt underlay or none, and fixings that have done a long stint.
With the Standard Survey, you also get moisture detection, a structural check and a follow-up consultation. The Premium Survey adds thermal imaging, drone inspection where applicable, structural analysis and an in-person consultation.

Culverstone Green questions
Do you cover Culverstone Green?
Yes. We survey roofs across London and the South East, and Culverstone Green is part of that. You can ring 07833 053749 or email us with the address and a few details, and we’ll talk through which survey suits.
How do I find out if my home in Culverstone Green is listed?
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 I need to be at home?
That depends on the survey. For inside areas and the loft space, someone has to give us access.
Can you tell me if my roof has asbestos?
No. Asbestos surveys and sampling aren’t something we do. The report may flag materials that could contain asbestos on buildings built or refurbished before 2000, with a recommendation to have a specialist asbestos surveyor check before it is disturbed.
Will you deal with my roofer if there’s a problem?
No, we report on the roof and do not take sides. Any dispute stays between you and your roofer or builder though our report gives you the facts we saw.
Is snagging available for a new-build house roof?
Yes, new-build roofs are checked in the same way as replacement roofs. The report lists snags with photographs for you to pass to your builder.
Does the weather affect the survey?
Light rain does not normally stop a survey. Heavy rain or strong wind can ground a drone and make the roof unsafe, so if conditions are not right we will arrange another day with you.
Honest limits
No survey can tell you everything, and it’s better to know them up front. Bear these in mind:
- Fixings and underlay hidden under the coverings
- A promise that the roof will not leak
- Estimates of what fixes will cost
If in doubt, phone 07833 053749 or drop us an email and we’ll recommend the right survey. What a survey covers and does not.
Roof types and parts we check
- Replacement roofs
- New flat roofs
- Flashings and valleys
- Ridges and verges
- New-build homes
- Loft conversions and dormers
Can I check my roof myself?
The one thing to avoid is getting up close. Slates, tiles, flat roofs and rooflights can give way. That is where a survey comes in, using safe viewpoints and a drone where it applies.
Look up at the roof after a storm, from ground level: broken slates or tiles in the garden, gaps along the ridge or loose lead are signs to note. Leave anything above ground level to a survey.
What a survey costs
What a survey costs depends on the time and equipment it needs. The main factors are:
- Features like valleys, chimneys, dormers and parapets
- If the survey needs thermal imaging or a drone
- The height of the building and how the roof can safely be seen
- The package you choose: Basic, Standard or Premium

Culverstone Green homes and their roofs
Historic houses such as Cobham College, about 4 miles north-east, show how far back building in the area around Culverstone Green goes. If you own one of the older houses, expect a mix of original materials and later repairs on the roof. Older houses across Kent often have handmade clay or peg tiles, and many have tile-hung walls. Kent’s older buildings take in oast houses and timber-framed Wealden hall houses as well. The covering on a house you are buying, or on a roof just finished, tells us where to look hardest.
If you let a flat or house near Sole Street station, it’s worth knowing a roof’s condition before you buy it, or before you sign off new roofing work on it.

What we do, step by step
We will ask a few questions first, about the roof’s history, any leaks and past repairs. Then the inspection itself takes about 1–2 hours for a typical new house roof, longer where the roof is large or complicated. For a village or hamlet like Culverstone Green, the journey is planned ahead of time: let us know about lanes, gates and parking. The roof is looked at from ground level, from windows, from the loft where there’s safe access and from the roof where it is safe.
- We ask what work was done and when it was finished.
- The coverings, ridges, hips and verges are checked as far as can safely be seen.
- Flashings, valleys, gutters and visible underlay at the eaves are checked.
- We look in the roof space, where there is safe access, and around the property for debris or damage.
- You get a photo report listing the snags we found.
Before we arrive
- Let us know about parking before the day
- Buyers: confirm access with the estate agent or seller
- Check pets are kept safely away
