How do I find out if my home in East Peckham is listed?
Your council is the best source, with Historic England’s list for listed buildings. A change of roofing material may need consent in either case.

Yes, where the survey calls for it and there’s safe access. We look for staining, damp, daylight and signs of movement, as far as the space allows.
Will you fly a drone over my roof?
Where it helps and it’s safe, yes. Flights depend on the weather on the day and airspace rules. We’re a CAA-registered drone operator.

About our new roof snagging in East Peckham
Homeowners book snagging after a re-roof or roof replacement and some new-build owners want their roof looked at. We inspect each roof as far as safe access allows including from the loft and the roof where it is safe. A photo report follows, ready to share with your roofer or builder. We survey new flat roofs, ridges and verges and replacement roofs, and the problems we are asked to look at most are tiles or slates sitting out of line and underlay at the eaves left exposed.
Older buildings in small places like East Peckham may be listed or in a conservation area. That can affect what materials a new roof may use, so check with the council and Historic England’s list. For a buyer or someone with a newly finished roof, it is worth knowing which applies, as well as what condition the roof is in. There are about 500,000 listed buildings and around 10,000 conservation areas in England.
After the visit, you get a written report with photos, sent by email. It explains the condition of the new roof, the defects we found and what we recommend.

What else we do in East Peckham
Buying a home or a new roof in East Peckham
Many older homes in Kent have handmade clay tiles, including Kent peg tiles held by pegs through two holes, and tile-hanging on their upper walls. Kent’s older buildings take in oast houses and timber-framed Wealden hall houses as well. Whether you are buying or checking new roofing work, knowing the materials helps make sense of what the inspection finds. The wider area around East Peckham has a long history of building, with Old Soar Manor about 4.5 miles north-west. Older homes in the wider area often have features worth a closer look, such as lead valleys, tall stacks and roofs that have been patched over the years, and any change of roofing material on a listed home needs checking with the council first.
If your house is among the older ones in the streets near Church of the Holy Trinity, ask the seller about past roof repairs, because older roofs often have patched valleys, replaced slates and reset ridges.

What this survey cannot tell you

- Fixings and underlay hidden under the coverings
- Details hidden from sight

- Flashings and valleys
- New flat roofs
- New-build homes
- Replacement roofs
- Ridges and verges
Do you need new roof snagging in East Peckham?
A roof is hard for most owners to see properly. Without an independent check, you’re relying on what can be seen from ground level and you may be asked to pay anyway.
Common reasons to book include:
- Poorly finished verges
- Gutters blocked by building debris
- Underlay ending short at the eaves
- Vents that weren’t fitted or are covered
If you own a rental within reach of Beltring station, a roof report gives you a clear picture before you buy or settle up with a roofer.
Choosing a roof surveyor
- What the survey will not cover
- Whether the loft is part of the inspection
- What the report includes, and whether it has photos
- Do they have a CAA Flyer ID and Operator ID for drone work?
For landlords and managing agents
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.
Any of our surveys can be booked by landlords, agents and building managers in East Peckham. To discuss a property or a block, call 07833 053749 or use the contact form.
Different roofs, different checks
Valleys
We check valley linings for splits and poor laps as far as safe access allows.
Ridges, hips and verges
Verges are easy to get wrong and get a close look.
What we do, step by step
The visit has one job: to look at the new roof as closely as is safe and record what we find. Everything we note and photograph goes into the written report. It usually takes between one and two hours at a typical home; commercial roofs usually need 3–4 hours. Somewhere as small as East Peckham, access is often the only tricky part. Mention any outbuildings, barns or garages you want included, and anything about the roof you already know. Visits can be on weekdays, Saturdays or Sundays.
- We agree what to focus on, like a payment date or a warranty period ending.
- The roof is inspected from the ground, vantage points and the roof where safe.
- We work through ridges, verges, valleys and flashings.
- We check the gutters, lower roofs and walls for debris or damage.
- You receive a report to share with your roofer.
Getting ready for the survey
- Point out any leaks or damp patches
- Leave side gates unlocked
- Make a note of anything you’d like us to look at
Arrange a survey
Our phone lines are open seven days a week. To book or ask a question, call 07833 053749 or drop us an email.

Useful tips for East Peckham property owners
Here are a few things we’d tell any owner:
- Watch for drips in the roof space with care
- Send the snagging report to your roofer
- Note the end of any warranty or defects period
- Watch for gutters overflowing in rain
You receive a report with photographs of each snag and recommendations, prioritised by urgency where relevant. You can send it straight to your roofer.
Keep the final payment until the roof has been checked, where your contract allows. It gives the roofer a reason to finish everything.
