New roof snagging in Damerham
Roof work often leaves debris behind. Offcuts, broken tiles and debris left in gutters or on lower roofs are noted along with any damage to other parts of the property. Each item is photographed. Gutters full of offcuts can overflow in the next heavy rain, and cracked lower roofs can leak. It’s easier to raise them while the job is fresh. We survey new flat roofs, ridges and verges and flashings and valleys, and people most frequently book us about ridge and hip tiles not properly fixed and loose flashings at walls or chimneys.
For a small place like Damerham, the visit is planned like any other: the journey, parking and access are simply agreed ahead of time. Mention any outbuildings, barns or garages with roofs you’d like looked at when you book, so the visit can be planned around them. Buyers and owners of new roofs get the same approach as anywhere. Visits can be booked seven days a week.
We write the report in plain English, so it makes sense without any roofing background. Each point is backed by a photo where possible, and recommendations are put in order of urgency where relevant.

Why get it checked now?
Photographs from ground level rarely show the detail. We get as close a view as safe access allows, including by drone where it is applicable. Around Damerham, older homes often have old roof timbers, and water through a failed covering can rot timber if it’s left.
Prices quoted always include VAT, and the written report is part of the package. Our price is from £150, including VAT. Where your roof sits in the range depends on its size, height and access.
Why book us in Damerham
- Visits on any day of the week
- Independent findings on the roof’s condition

Surveys for landlords and agents in Damerham
For blocks of flats, a roof survey helps managing agents and residents’ management companies plan ahead. The report sets out what needs attention now and what can wait, which helps when budgeting.
An agent can book and manage the survey for a landlord, and the report can go to both. Access is agreed with the tenant in advance.
What we look for on each type of roof
Underlay and ventilation
Roof ventilation reduces the risk of condensation. We check for vents where they’ve been fitted.
Clay and concrete tiles
Interlocking tiles need to sit neatly in line. Any that look wrong go in the report.
Honest limits
It’s a careful look at the new roof, not the whole story. Its limits include:
- Repair costs for putting snags right
- Fixings and underlay hidden under the coverings
- Settling a dispute with your roofer or builder

What new roof snagging looks like in Damerham
Some Hampshire villages still have thatched roofs. In this part of the South East, older roofs are mostly slate or clay tile and many newer ones concrete tile. For a purchase or a newly finished roof, the materials decide which details matter most. About 3.5 miles north-east lies Breamore House, a reminder of how long the area around Damerham has been built on. On older houses around here, roofs often carry the marks of earlier repairs, from replaced slates to new lead.

What we do, step by step
Where it is relevant and can be reached safely, the loft space is checked as well as the outside. Inside, we look for staining, damp, gaps and signs of movement, as far as the space allows. All in, the survey normally takes about 1–2 hours on an ordinary house; commercial roofs usually need 3–4 hours. In a small place like Damerham, access is typically the main thing to plan. Let us know about outbuildings, past repairs and any leaks you’ve noticed. Weekday and weekend visits are available.
- We start with what the roofer did and when they finished.
- The new coverings and roof edges are inspected as far as can safely be seen.
- We look at valleys, flashings, gutters and the underlay at the eaves.
- The loft space and the rest of the property are checked for problems.
- You get a photo report of each snag.
Preparing for the visit
- Show us where any leaks or stains appear
- Check we can get to the back of the property
- Make a note of anything you’d like us to look at

Related advice
Do you need new roof snagging in Damerham?
Flashings at walls and chimneys often need attention. Loose or badly fitted flashings can let water in at the first heavy rain.
Here are some of the things we see often:
- Loose flashings at walls or chimneys
- Vents that weren’t fitted or are covered
- Broken coverings left on a new roof
- Cracked mortar at the ridge or hips
If you live in an older home near Church of St George, ask the seller about past roof repairs, because older roofs often have patched valleys, replaced slates and reset ridges.
