New roof snagging for homes and businesses in Four Marks
Ventilation matters on a new roof. Where vents have been fitted at the ridge or eaves, we check them, and check the loft space for signs of condensation. We note what we can see. Missing or blocked ventilation can lead to condensation over time, which is easier to put right while the roofer is still involved. We record what we see. Typical surveys look at underlay not dressed into the gutter and flashings not properly dressed or fixed, across replacement roofs, loft conversions and dormers and new-build homes.
Houses in smaller places like Four Marks can stand more in the open than those in a built-up town, which can mean more wind and rain on the roof. Loose ridge tiles, lifted coverings and tired flashings are the kind of things that show it. For a purchase or a new roof, those exposed edges are checked closely. Wind lifts anything already loose, so a small fault on an exposed roof doesn’t stay small for long.
We write the report in plain English, so you don’t need to be a roofer to follow it. Photos show what each point refers to, with the urgent items made clear.

Prices for new roof snagging in Four Marks
We confirm the exact price before booking. This is what makes a difference:
- The roof’s overall size
- Extra roofs, like extensions, dormers or garages
- The shape of the roof and its details
- The package you choose: Basic, Standard or Premium
Simple, low roofs take less time to survey than tall or complicated ones, and the package matters as well. We will give you the figure before anything is booked.
What we need to know
If you can, have these to hand when you contact us:
- The style of property, from a terrace to a block
- What made you get in touch
- Photos of the roof, taken safely from the ground or a window
- The address and postcode of the property
When you’re ready to go ahead, ring 07833 053749 or use the contact form. From there it’s a case of choosing a package, agreeing the price and fixing a day.
For landlords and managing agents
Where a roof is shared: we need access agreed with the building owner or managing agent. Mention it when you contact us and we will plan the visit with that in mind.
If the property is let, the agent or a tenant can let us in. Surveys run on weekdays and at weekends, which can make access easier.
Why act early in Four Marks
A minor snag left alone can turn into a leak. Loose details can let water through during the first winter. Finding them early means they can be dealt with quickly. Blocked gutters on homes around Four Marks overflow and soak walls. It’s easy to sort the cause early and slow to dry a damp wall.
Our price is from £150, including VAT. Packages run from Basic at £150 through Standard at £250 to Premium at £400, inc. VAT, and we will tell you which fits.
What you get with us

Four Marks homes and their roofs
Historic houses like Bentworth Hall, about 2.7 miles north, show how far back building in the area around Four Marks goes. If yours is one of the older homes, expect a mix of original materials and later repairs on the roof. Thatch survives on some older buildings in Hampshire’s villages. In this part of the South East, older roofs are mostly slate or clay tile and many newer ones concrete tile. The covering on a house you’re buying, or on a roof just finished, tells us where to look hardest.
Landlords with a home close to Alton station may find that a survey before purchase, or before signing off a new roof, saves surprises once a tenant moves in. Take an older house close to Church of the Good Shepherd: ask the seller about past roof repairs, because older roofs frequently have patched valleys, replaced slates and reset ridges.

Four Marks: your questions answered
Do you cover Four Marks?
Yes, Four Marks is one of the places we work. Every survey there gets the same written report with photos.
Does a conservation area affect roof work in Four Marks?
For listing, use Historic England’s list; for conservation areas, ask the council. It matters most if you are planning to re-roof in a different material.
Do you check new-build roofs?
Yes, the inspection works the same as for a re-roof. The report lists snags with photos for you to pass to your builder.
Will you check every nail and clip?
No. We do not open up the new roof so hidden fixings are not visible to us. The report says what could and couldn’t be seen.
How long have you been surveying roofs?
We’ve been surveying roofs for over 20 years and have carried out more than 5,000 surveys across London and the South East.
Can you tell me if my roof has asbestos?
No. Our report may flag materials that could contain asbestos, but only a specialist asbestos surveyor can confirm it. It may be present in buildings built or refurbished before 2000.
Do you carry professional indemnity insurance?
Every survey is covered by professional indemnity and public liability insurance, and we can provide details if a managing agent needs them.
Practical tips
Here are a few things we’d tell any owner, before and after a survey:
- Note the end of any warranty or defects period
- Check that gutters weren’t left full of offcuts
- Walk round the house to look for knock-on damage
- Put any issues to your roofer in writing
The report gives your roofer a clear list to work through. If there is a dispute, it is between you and your roofer or builder, and our part is to report what we see.
Watch for leaks, damp or loose pieces in the first months. It is simpler to raise problems soon after the job.

What else we do in Four Marks
What you can safely check yourself
Look up at the roof after a storm, from ground level: pieces of tile or slate on the ground, a gap in the ridge or a lifted flashing are all worth noting. Leave anything above ground level to a survey.
A lot can be seen from ground level. Binoculars help you spot slipped slates or tiles, gaps along the ridge and a leaning stack. Never climb onto the roof to look.
How it works
The visit usually starts outside and finishes in the loft: outside views come first, then the roof space if there’s safe access. In total, it takes an hour or two at most homes, or half a day or so for a commercial building. For a survey in Four Marks, we agree the time, the access and parking before the day. Visits can be on weekdays, Saturdays or Sundays. If there are outbuildings or garages you want looked at, mention them.
- We agree what to focus on, like a payment date or a warranty period ending.
- We inspect as far as safe access allows.
- Each detail at ridges, verges, valleys and flashings is looked at.
- We check the gutters, lower roofs and walls for debris or damage.
- We send a written report you can pass on.
