About our new roof snagging in Froxfield Green

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, from the ground, vantage points, the loft space and the roof where safe. You then get a photo-illustrated written report to share with your roofer. Typical surveys look at flashings not properly dressed or fixed and tiles or slates sitting out of line, across replacement roofs, new flat roofs and new-build homes.

Older buildings in small places like Froxfield Green may be listed or in a conservation area. If so, re-roofing in different materials may need consent, so check with the council before work starts. Whether you’re buying or signing off new roofing, it’s worth knowing where you stand, as well as what condition the roof is in. England has around 10,000 conservation areas and about 500,000 listed buildings.

With the Standard Survey, you also get moisture detection, a structural check and a follow-up consultation. The Premium Survey adds thermal imaging, drone inspection where applicable, structural analysis and an in-person consultation.

How the survey changes by roof type

Slate roofs

Ridges, verges and valleys are checked closely on new slate roofs as far as can safely be seen.

Clay and concrete tiles

Tiles that do not sit flat can let rain in. Any that look wrong go in the report.

Signs you need new roof snagging in Froxfield Green

Snags happen on many building jobs. Details at ridges, verges and flashings are easy to rush, especially when the weather is against them.

Most people get in touch after spotting one of these:

  • Flashings not properly dressed or fixed
  • Cracked mortar at the ridge or hips
  • Gutters or fascias damaged during the job
  • Broken coverings left on a new roof

Landlords with a home close to Petersfield station may find that a written report helps before buying a rental or paying for a new roof on one.

Questions to ask before booking

  • Will they check the loft as well as the outside?
  • What happens after the report arrives
  • Their report turnaround times
  • Whether VAT is added on top

What to expect from a roof survey

Buying a home or a new roof in Froxfield Green

What can be done to an older roof may depend on listing or a conservation area. The council is the place to check, along with Historic England’s list. A number of Hampshire villages keep thatched roofs on their older buildings. Across the South East, older homes tend to have slate or clay tiles, and many later ones concrete tiles. Whether you’re buying or checking new roofing work, knowing the materials helps make sense of what the inspection finds.

For an older house near a landmark such as Church of St Peter on the Green, a survey will show how the roof has been repaired before, which helps you judge what’s coming.

Questions from Froxfield Green

Is my home in Froxfield Green listed or in a conservation area?

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.

Do you cover Froxfield Green?

Yes, Froxfield Green is one of the places we work. The survey and report are the same in Froxfield Green as anywhere else, and visits run on weekdays and weekends.

Can you inspect my roof with a drone?

Yes, where it applies and safe. We fly a sub-250g drone and we are a CAA-registered drone operator (Flyer ID and Operator ID). Drone inspection is part of the Drone Roof Survey and the Premium Survey, where it applies.

Are you insured?

Our cover is professional indemnity plus public liability, and details are available on request.

Does this replace a RICS home survey?

No. It’s a specialist roof survey, not a RICS Level 2 or Level 3 building survey. It focuses on the roof and can sit alongside a RICS survey.

What if it rains on the day?

It depends on the weather and the survey. In strong wind or a downpour, a drone can’t fly and access may not be safe, and we’d agree another day.

What’s the best way to book?

The quickest way is to ring 07833 053749 or email us. Tell us the address and a little about the roof, and we’ll take it from there. We survey on weekdays and at weekends.

Surveys for landlords and agents in Froxfield Green

Landlords and agents in Froxfield Green book surveys as well as householders. A photo-illustrated written report gives you a clear record of the new roof, which helps you plan work between tenancies.

For blocks of flats, a roof survey helps managing agents and residents’ management companies plan ahead. Recommendations are set out in order of urgency where relevant.

What happens on the day

We work from the outside in: first the slopes, edges and gutters from every safe viewpoint, then the loft space where it can be reached. All told, expect between one and two hours for a typical new house roof, longer where the roof is large or complicated. In a small place like Froxfield Green, access is usually the main thing to plan. 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.

  1. We agree what to focus on, such as a payment date or a warranty period ending.
  2. The roof is inspected from ground level, vantage points and the roof where safe.
  3. Each detail at ridges, verges, valleys and flashings is looked at.
  4. We check the gutters, lower roofs and walls for debris or damage.
  5. We send a written report you can pass on.

How to prepare

  • Have keys ready for side gates, garages or roof access doors
  • If you’re buying, let the agent know when we are coming
  • Agree roof access with the managing agent if it’s shared

What you can safely check yourself

If you have a loft with safe access, take a look inside. Take a torch and only step on boards or joists, and look for staining, damp timber or daylight coming through.

Keep a simple record: when leaks happen, ground-level photos and any past roof work. Share it with us as you book and it will help the survey.
