About our new roof snagging in Curdridge
A new roof is a big spend, so it’s worth having it checked before the final payment. Our new roof snagging inspection looks for faults and unfinished work on the roof and around the property. You get a report with photographs to share with your roofer. It is an independent check, separate from the roofer who did the work. If you’ve noticed untidy or loose verge details and loose flashings at walls or chimneys, a survey will tell you what’s going on, on new flat roofs, flashings and valleys and ridges and verges alike.
Older buildings in small places like Curdridge may be listed or in a conservation area. If so, re-roofing in different materials may need consent, so check with the council before work starts. For a buyer or someone with a newly finished roof, it’s worth knowing which applies, as well as what condition the roof is in. England has around 10,000 conservation areas and about 500,000 listed buildings.
We keep jargon out of it: if work is needed, the report says so clearly.

Curdridge questions
Is Curdridge within the area you cover?
We do. A small place gets exactly the same survey as a big one, with the route planned beforehand.
Do you carry out roof surveys in Curdridge?
Yes. We cover the whole of London and South East England, and Curdridge is part of that. Just call 07833 053749 or drop us an email and let us know about the property, and we will talk through which survey suits.
Is this an asbestos survey?
No. We can flag materials that might contain asbestos, but only a specialist asbestos surveyor can confirm it. It may be present in buildings built or refurbished before 2000.
Can you settle a dispute with my builder?
No, our role is to record the roof’s condition. Disputes are between you and whoever did the work though our report gives you the facts we saw.
Will you check every nail and clip?
No. We don’t open up the new roof so hidden fixings aren’t visible to us. The report says what could and couldn’t be seen.
Does this replace a RICS home survey?
No. We’re experienced roof surveyors, and our survey covers the roof rather than the whole building. For the rest of the building, a RICS home survey is a separate job.
Which days do you carry out surveys?
Visits run seven days a week in the daytime, which suits people who work during the week. Let us know your preferred days when you book.

Should I look at the roof myself first?
A lot can be seen from ground level. With binoculars, look for slipped or missing slates and tiles, gaps along the ridge and leaning chimneys. Never climb onto the roof to look.
After heavy rain, check ceilings and the tops of walls for new stains. Photograph them and note the date, which helps when we look at the roof.
What happens if roof problems are left?
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. Finding them early means they can be dealt with quickly. Where a roof is exposed, as many are in small places like Curdridge, driving rain gets into any weakness, and older walls, once damp, take a long time to dry.
Simple, low roofs take less time to survey than tall or complicated ones, and the package you pick makes a difference too. The price is always agreed first.

What happens on the day
Where it’s relevant and can be reached safely, the roof space is checked as well as the outside. In the loft, the signs we look for are staining, damp, daylight and sagging, as far as the space allows. The whole visit usually takes between one and two hours for most homes, depending on how much new work there is to check. Older rural homes like those around Curdridge can have a main roof, lower lean-to roofs and outbuildings all joined together. We work round each section in turn, from the safest viewpoints.
- We start with what the roofer did and when they finished.
- We check the coverings, ridges, hips and verges from safe vantage points.
- Valleys, flashings, gutters and visible underlay at the eaves are looked at.
- The roof space and the rest of the property are checked for problems.
- You get a photo report of each snag.
Before we arrive
- Tell us where we can park nearby
- Keep pets out of the way during the survey
- Agree roof access with the managing agent if it is shared

Curdridge homes and their roofs
What can be done to an older roof may depend on listing or a conservation area. The council is the place to check, along with Historic England’s list, ideally before any re-roofing is planned. A number of Hampshire villages keep thatched roofs on their older buildings. Across the South East, older homes tend to have slate or clay tiles, and many later ones concrete tiles. Each material has its own typical faults, which is what a buyer or the owner of a new roof needs to know about.
If you own one of the older houses in the streets near Church of St Peter, a survey will show how the roof has been repaired before, which helps you judge what’s coming.
