The survey, 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. The visit normally takes about one to two hours for a typical new house roof, longer where the roof is large or complicated. Around Eversley, older homes can have small or awkward roof spaces, so let us know about the loft hatch and any ladder. Only areas that can be reached safely are inspected.
- We start with what the roofer did and when they finished.
- We check the coverings, ridges, hips and verges from safe vantage points.
- Valleys, flashings, gutters and visible underlay at the eaves are looked at.
- We check the loft where safe and look for debris or damage.
- Snags are listed in a photo-illustrated written report.
Preparing for the visit
- Move anything stored under the loft hatch
- Have keys ready for side gates, garages or roof access doors
- Jot down any questions you want answered

Advice
New roof snagging for homes and businesses in Eversley
We report on what we see, with photos and clear descriptions. If there is a disagreement about the work, it is between you and your roofer or builder. What we provide is an independent record of the roof’s condition. We don’t give repair cost estimates or decide who is at fault, but it describes what we saw in plain terms. Common reasons to book are tiles or slates sitting out of line and debris left in gutters or valleys, across new flat roofs, new-build homes and loft conversions and dormers.
Being in a small place like Eversley makes no difference to the inspection itself: the journey, parking and access are simply agreed ahead of time. If there are outbuildings with roofs you want checked, mention them when booking. Buyers and owners of new roofs get the same approach as anywhere. Weekday and weekend visits are both available.
How fast the report arrives depends on the package: Basic within 48 hours, Standard in 24–48 hours and Premium the same day.

How we price new roof snagging
When we price a survey, we consider:
- Features like valleys, chimneys, dormers and parapets
- If the survey needs thermal imaging or a drone
- Building height and the viewpoints available
- How big the roof is
New roof snagging starts from £150, including VAT. What you pay depends on the size and height of the roof, access and which survey you book.
What to tell us when you get in touch
Here’s what helps us most when you contact us:
- Why you want a survey: buying, a leak, a storm or new work
- Dates you’re working to, such as exchange
- Photos of the roof, taken safely from the ground or a window
- Any stains, drips or damp patches you’ve seen indoors
If you have photos of the roof, send them over. Take them safely from ground level or a window; never climb up to get a better view. To send them or to book, phone 07833 053749 or use the contact form.

What new roof snagging looks like in Eversley
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. Stratfield Saye House, about 4.7 miles west, is one of the historic houses in the wider area around Eversley. Older roofs in the wider area can hide decades of patch repairs, so the detail matters.
If you own one of the older houses in the streets near Church of St Mary, ask the seller about past roof repairs, because older roofs often have patched valleys, replaced slates and reset ridges.
