Why act early in Denvilles
Phone photos from the garden can’t show much. We get as close a view as safe access allows using a drone where it applies. Blocked gutters on homes around Denvilles overflow and soak walls. Dealing with the cause is simple; drying out a wall is not.
Prices quoted always include VAT, and the written report is part of the package. Prices start from £150, including VAT. Size, height and access decide where your roof falls.

New roof snagging in Denvilles
Our inspection covers the slates or tiles, ridges, verges, hips and valleys, along with the flashings and ventilation. At the eaves we look at how the underlay is dressed into the gutter, where it can be seen as well as the gutters. The report sets out what we found with photos. Any debris left behind or damage to other parts is recorded too. If you are worried about underlay ending short at the eaves and loose flashings at walls or chimneys, we can find out what’s behind it, on new flat roofs, new-build homes and replacement roofs alike.
In a smaller place like Denvilles, homes are mostly houses and bungalows, from older cottages to more recent builds. Older roofs may still have their original slates or clay tiles, with fixings and underlay that have done a long stint. Whether you are buying or have just had the roof replaced, that hidden layer is worth knowing about. Breathable membranes only appeared in the late 1990s, so older roofs often have bitumen felt or nothing at all.
The report is yours to share with whoever needs it: your solicitor, the seller, your insurer, a roofer or the building’s managing agent.

What happens on the day
Once we have finished looking, we write up our findings in a report with photographs, emailed to you. As for time on site, it typically takes between one and two hours at a typical home; commercial roofs usually need 3–4 hours. Homes around Denvilles frequently have gardens on more than one side, which gives us room to step back and see the roof. Mention any side of the property we can’t get to. Inside, the loft is checked where it can be reached safely.
- We agree what to focus on, such as a payment date or a warranty period ending.
- We inspect as far as safe access allows.
- We work through ridges, verges, valleys and flashings.
- Debris and damage to other parts are recorded.
- You receive a report to share with your roofer.

Local roofs and buyers in Denvilles
The coast is about 1 mile or less from Denvilles, and places near the sea get more salt in the air and more wind than inland. Salt is hard on nails, clips and metal flashings, and strong wind lifts anything already loose on a roof. Warblington Castle, about 0.7 miles south, is one of the historic houses in the wider area around Denvilles. If your house is among the older ones, expect a mix of original materials and later repairs on the roof.
The streets around a church such as St Thomas à Becket Church are often among the oldest in a place, and if your home is one of the older ones nearby, a survey will show how the roof has been repaired before, which helps you judge what’s coming. If you own a rental within reach of Warblington station, the roof is worth checking before you add another property to a portfolio or pay a roofer in full.

Denvilles questions
Do you cover smaller places like Denvilles?
Yes, Denvilles is covered. Our area covers London and South East England, from towns to the smallest villages. Longer journeys are simply planned in advance.
Is my home in Denvilles listed or in a conservation area?
The council and Historic England’s list are the places to check. Either can affect what roof work is allowed, so it’s worth checking before planning any.
Do you check new-build roofs?
Yes. We check new-build roofs from safe vantage points and the roof space and photograph what we find. It’s worth booking before your builder’s defects period ends.
Do you test for asbestos?
No. We don’t carry out asbestos surveys or testing. We flag materials that could contain asbestos, such as cement sheets or soffits on pre-2000 buildings and suggest a specialist asbestos surveyor checks them before any work.
How do I arrange new roof snagging in Denvilles?
Just call 07833 053749 or use the contact form with the address. After a few questions, we confirm the price and fix a day, weekday or weekend.
How long will you be on site?
Most house visits take about 1–2 hours, and longer for large or complex roofs.
Can you survey in bad weather?
It depends on the weather and the survey. Strong wind or a downpour can make access unsafe and ground a drone, and we’d agree another day.
Surveys for landlords and agents in Denvilles
Shared roofs need a little more planning: we need access agreed with the building owner or managing agent. Mention it when you contact us and we’ll plan the survey around it.
Roof problems in a rented home affect tenants as well as the building. A survey shows what needs attention, so you can plan the work.
What we cannot see
No survey can tell you everything, and it is better to know them up front. Bear these in mind:
- Areas out of view from every safe vantage point
- Estimates of what fixes will cost
- Deciding who is at fault in a disagreement
