New roof snagging for homes and businesses in Frogham
People book us after having a roof replaced or re-covered, and buyers of new-build homes sometimes want the roof checked. Whatever the roof, we inspect as far as it can safely be seen, from the ground, vantage points, the loft space and the roof where safe. You then get a report with photos to share with your roofer. We survey new-build homes, new flat roofs and flashings and valleys, and common reasons people get in touch are ridge and hip tiles not properly fixed and loose flashings at walls or chimneys.
Somewhere as small as Frogham, older cottages, farmhouses and converted buildings often sit beside a few newer homes. Older roofs there may have clay tiles, slate, stone or, in some places, thatch. Whether you are buying or have just had a roof replaced, each material has its own checks, and thatch is a specialist material, so we report on what can be seen. Older roofs may also have old felt underlay or none, and fixings that have done a long stint.
How fast the report arrives depends on the package: the Basic Survey within 48 hours, the Standard Survey in 24 to 48 hours and the Premium Survey on the same day.

Frogham: your questions answered
Does a conservation area affect roof work in Frogham?
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.
Is Frogham in the area you cover?
We do. The survey and report are the same in Frogham as anywhere else, and visits run on weekdays and weekends.
Do you lift tiles to check the fixings?
No, we do not disturb the new coverings. Fixings and underlay under the slates or tiles are hidden so we focus on what can be seen.
How long have you been surveying roofs?
Over 20 years and more than 5,000 surveys, across London and South East England.
How do I arrange new roof snagging in Frogham?
Just ring 07833 053749 or drop us an email with the address. We will ask a few questions, confirm the price and agree a date, weekday or weekend.
Which days do you carry out surveys?
Surveys can be booked for any day of the week: Monday to Friday, Saturdays and Sundays. Tell us which days suit you when booking.
What does a new roof inspection include?
All the parts of the roof we can see safely, from the ridge and verges down to the eaves and gutters. We look in the loft where it is safe, and we note any mess or damage left after the work.
New roof snagging in Frogham: local notes
Thatch survives on some older buildings in Hampshire’s villages. Slate and clay tile are the usual coverings on older South East houses, with concrete tiles on many later estates. The covering on a house you’re buying, or on a roof just finished, tells us where to look hardest. The wider area around Frogham has a long history of building, with Breamore House about 4 miles north. If your home is one of the older ones, expect a mix of original materials and later repairs on the roof, and any change of roofing material on a listed home needs checking with the council first.
Frogham is in Hampshire. Bookings from Frogham are handled just like any other: get in touch, agree the price and pick a day. Frogham is one of the towns and villages in Hampshire where we work. We also survey roofs in Southampton.

No survey can tell you everything, and it’s better to know them up front. Bear these in mind:
- Parts of the roof we can’t see safely
- Deciding who is at fault in a disagreement
- Pricing the remedial work

Why act early in Frogham
Raising snags before the final payment is typically simpler. Once the job is paid and the roofer has moved on, getting them back can take longer. A snagging report gives you something specific to raise. Older cottages and farmhouses around Frogham can have roof timbers that have been there a very long time, and water through a failed covering can rot timber if it’s left.
Our price is from £150, including VAT. What you pay depends on how big and how high the roof is, how it can be seen safely and which survey you book.

How it works
We work from the outside in: outside views come first, then the roof space if there is safe access. In total, it takes roughly 1–2 hours for most homes, depending on how much new work there is to check. Around Frogham, older homes can have small or awkward roof spaces, so it helps to know whether there is a loft hatch and how easy it is to reach. Only areas that can be reached safely are inspected.
- We start by finding out what was replaced and what worries you.
- The new coverings, ridge, hips and verges are inspected where it’s safe to see them.
- Flashings, valleys, gutters and visible underlay at the eaves are checked.
- Where it’s safe, we check the loft, then look for debris or damage left behind.
- You get a photo report listing the snags we found.
How to prepare
- Point out any leaks or damp patches
- Have keys ready for side gates, garages or roof access doors
- Let us know about parking before the day
Getting a price
If you’re buying, it is useful to book soon after your offer is accepted, so you have the findings in time to act on them before you exchange. For any other survey, just phone 07833 053749 or email us when you are ready.
Advice
What we’re asked to look at in Frogham
Flashings are a common source of snags. If they’re poorly dressed or fixed, water can get in sooner rather than later.
Here are some of the things we see often:
- Cracked or slipped new tiles or slates
- Untidy or loose verge details
- Vents that weren’t fitted or are covered
- Gutters or fascias damaged during the job
For an older house near a landmark like Church of the Holy Ascension, the roof may have had decades of patch repairs, and the survey shows where they are.
Questions to ask before booking
- What’s outside the scope of the survey
- What experience they bring
- What follow-up you get after the report
- Whether any drone flown is registered with the CAA
Tips from our surveys
There is plenty you can do without going near the roof. What helps most:
- Send the snagging report to your roofer
- Check ceilings and the loft after heavy rain
- File all paperwork for the new roof
- Agree snagging with your roofer at the start
If anything in the report isn’t clear, ask us. With the Standard Survey there’s a follow-up consultation, and the Premium Survey includes an in-person one.
Note the end date of any defects or warranty period. Arrange an inspection in good time so snags can be raised.
