New roof snagging for homes and businesses in Deadwater
Our snagging inspections cover Deadwater and the rest of London and South East England. Time on site typically takes about 1–2 hours for most homes, depending on how much new work there is to check. We inspect as far as it is safe to see, and by drone where it is applicable. You then get a report with photographs. We inspect on weekdays and at weekends. We are often asked to look into debris left in gutters or valleys and signs of condensation in the roof space, on loft conversions and dormers, ridges and verges and replacement roofs.
Smaller places like Deadwater frequently have bungalows and cottages as well as houses, and many have been extended or had dormers added. Low roofs are easier to see from ground level, but dormer cheeks, valleys and flat-roofed additions still need close attention. The same goes for a purchase or a new roof around Deadwater. Snags and wear both tend to show at dormer lead work and along flat-roof edges.
With the Standard Survey, you also get moisture detection, a structural check and a follow-up consultation. The Premium Survey goes further, with thermal imaging, drone inspection where applicable, structural analysis and an in-person consultation.

How we price new roof snagging
Our packages start from £150, including VAT. What you pay for your roof depends on:
- Building height and the viewpoints available
- Any need for thermal images or a drone flight
- Whether you choose the Basic, Standard or Premium Survey
- House, block, shop or office
Bigger, taller and commercial roofs take more time to survey, so they’re priced to match. You will know the figure before booking.
What we need to know
Getting the details right at the start saves time. Please include:
- Access details, such as a loft hatch or a shared roof
- Pictures of the roof from a safe spot, if you have them
- Where any leaks, stains or damp patches show inside
- Your timetable, such as an exchange date
Every survey is priced before it is booked, so you know the cost up front. New roof snagging starts from £150, including VAT. For a price for your roof, phone 07833 053749 or email us.
What this survey cannot tell you

Why act early in Deadwater
A clear list of snags makes the conversation with your roofer easier. It keeps things factual. On a bungalow or cottage around Deadwater, the roof sits close to the rooms below, so water can show inside quickly once it gets past the covering. Catching the cause first saves redecorating as well.
Price depends partly on the package: from £150 for Basic, £250 for Standard and £400 for Premium, with VAT included. Size, height and access can affect the price too.

FAQs for Deadwater
Is Deadwater within the area you cover?
Yes, we do. We survey roofs across London and South East England, from towns to the smallest villages. Longer journeys are simply planned ahead of time.
Do you carry out roof surveys in Deadwater?
Yes. We cover the whole of London and South East England, and Deadwater is part of that. You can call 07833 053749 or send us an email with the address and a few details.
Do you climb onto every roof?
Only when it is safe. Safe viewpoints, the roof space and a drone where it applies cover most of what’s needed, and anything out of sight is recorded in the report.
What if it rains on the day?
It depends on the weather and the survey. Strong wind or heavy rain can make access unsafe and ground a drone, so we’d move the date with you.
Do you test for asbestos?
No. Asbestos surveys and testing aren’t part of what we do. If we see materials that could contain asbestos, such as cement roof sheets or soffits on buildings from before 2000, we flag them and suggest a specialist asbestos surveyor checks them before any work.
What does a new roof inspection cost?
Our price is from £150, including VAT. The price depends on the size of the roof and the access. To get a price, phone 07833 053749 or send us an email.

Surveys run seven days a week. To arrange a date, ring 07833 053749 or drop us an email.
What we look for on each type of roof
Flashings
Chimney flashings are a frequent source of leaks and are looked at closely.
Valleys
Valleys carry a lot of water, so the detailing matters. The lining and the cut coverings along it are checked.
The survey, step by step
The visit has one job: to see as much of the new roof as can safely be seen and record it clearly. Notes and photos go into the written report. It typically takes roughly 1–2 hours for most homes, depending on how much new work there is to check. A visit to Deadwater is planned like any other: the time, the access and where to park are agreed beforehand. Visits can be on weekdays, Saturdays or Sundays. If there are outbuildings or garages you want looked at, mention them.
- 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.
- Valleys, flashings, gutters and the underlay at the eaves are looked at.
- We look in the roof space, where there’s safe access, and around the property for debris or damage.
- We send a written report with photos of each snag.
How to prepare
- Show us where any leaks or stains appear
- Leave side gates unlocked
- Find any records of previous roof work
How to book

New roof snagging around Deadwater
If your home is older, it is worth knowing whether it’s listed or in a conservation area before planning roof work. Changes that affect a listed building’s special interest need listed building consent, and councils can also use Article 4 directions to control changes in conservation areas. Some Hampshire villages still have thatched roofs. 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 your house is among the older ones in the streets near St Mark's Sacred Church, older patch repairs can hide behind a tidy front slope, and the survey looks past them. If you own a rental within reach of Liphook station, a written report helps before buying a rental or paying for a new roof on one.
Deadwater is about 1 mile east of Bordon, in Hampshire. Surveys in Deadwater work the same way as everywhere we cover: a careful inspection, photos and a written report. Our Hampshire coverage includes Deadwater. Guildford is in our area too.

Before and after the survey
A little preparation and a few simple habits help, both for the survey and for the roof itself. Some pointers:
- Walk round the house to look for knock-on damage
- Check ceilings and the loft after heavy rain
- Send the snagging report to your roofer
- Check that gutters weren’t left full of offcuts
You receive a written report with photographs of each snag and recommendations, prioritised by urgency where relevant. Pass it on to your roofer or builder.
Keep the final payment until the roof has been checked if your contract allows it. It keeps the job open until it is right.
