Eversley Centre: your questions answered
Is my home in Eversley Centre listed or in a conservation area?
Start with Historic England’s list for listing and your council for conservation areas. Either can affect what roof work is allowed, so it is worth checking before planning any.
Do you cover Eversley Centre?
Yes. Our area covers London and South East England, and Eversley Centre is part of that. Just phone 07833 053749 or send us an email and let us know about the property, and we’ll talk through which survey suits.
What does a new roof inspection cost?
Our price is from £150, including VAT. The size of the roof and how easy it is to see affect the price. To get a price, call 07833 053749 or use the contact form.
How experienced are you?
Over 20 years and more than 5,000 surveys.
How long will you be on site?
A visit typically takes between one and two hours for a typical new house roof, longer where the roof is large or complicated. You’ll know roughly how long when we arrange it.
How do I book a survey in Eversley Centre?
The quickest way is to phone 07833 053749 or drop us an email. Let us know the address and a little about the roof, and we’ll take it from there. Surveys run seven days a week.
Does the weather affect the survey?
It can, depending on the survey. Drones cannot fly safely in high wind or heavy rain, and thermal imaging works best after a sunny day, with a dry roof and little wind. We will rearrange with you if the weather is not right.
How new roof snagging works in Eversley Centre
We carry out new roof snagging in Eversley Centre and across London and South East England. Time on site typically takes about one to two hours at a typical home, and about three to four hours for a commercial roof. Everything visible from safe vantage points is checked including by drone where applicable. You then get a written report with photos. We inspect on weekdays and at weekends. We are frequently asked to look into poorly finished verges and underlay ending short at the eaves, across replacement roofs, new-build homes and new flat roofs.
Some older homes in villages like Eversley Centre are listed or sit 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. There are about 500,000 listed buildings and around 10,000 conservation areas in England.
The report records the new roof as we found it on the day. That makes it useful now and a handy reference later, for example when you want to check whether anything has changed.

Landlord and commercial surveys in Eversley Centre
Roof problems in a rented home affect tenants as well as the building. A survey helps you spot issues early and plan the work.
Freeholders and residents’ companies use a roof report to plan and budget, with the most urgent items set out first.
Local roofs and buyers in Eversley Centre
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. Whether you’re buying or checking new roofing work, knowing the materials helps make sense of what the inspection finds. Older buildings may be listed or sit in a conservation area. To find out, check Historic England’s list and ask the council about conservation areas. Re-roofing in different materials may need permission there.
The streets around a church such as Church of St Mary are often among the oldest in a place, and if your house is among the older ones nearby, ask the seller about past roof repairs, because older roofs often have patched valleys, replaced slates and reset ridges.

What you can safely check yourself
Your own check is a good start, but it is not a survey. From ground level, valleys, flashings and the backs of chimneys are frequently out of sight.
You can learn a lot from the ground. With binoculars, look for slipped or missing slates and tiles, gaps along the ridge and leaning chimneys. Never climb onto the roof to look.
Common roof problems in Eversley Centre
Work at height can mark walls, crack lower roofs or loosen gutters. A snagging check looks around the property as well as at the roof.
These are some of the problems a survey can pick up:
- Cracked lower roofs or marked walls after the work
- Debris left in gutters or valleys
- Tiles or slates sitting out of line
- Cracked mortar at the ridge or hips
Landlords with a home close to Crowthorne station may find that it is worth knowing a roof’s condition before you buy it, or before you sign off new roofing work on it.
Before you book anyone

What we look for on each type of roof
Underlay and ventilation
We look in the roof space, where there is safe access, at the underlay and ventilation.
Clay and concrete tiles
Verge and eaves tiles are where snags often show on tiled roofs. We look at them closely.
How the survey works
We don’t take risks to get a closer look. Everything that can safely be seen is inspected, and if part of the roof can’t be seen, the report says so. Most visits take about 1–2 hours for most homes, depending on how much new work there is to check. Older rural homes like those around Eversley Centre can have a main roof, lower lean-to roofs and outbuildings all joined together. Each part is looked at from wherever it can safely be seen, and anything we cannot see is noted.
- 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.
- Debris and damage to other parts are recorded.
- You receive a report to share with your roofer.
How to prepare
- Agree roof access with the managing agent if it’s shared
- Tell us about any leaks, stains or damp patches you know of
- Dig out any old roof reports or invoices
Getting a price
