New roof snagging for Fullerton homes and businesses

What we are asked to look at in Fullerton

Many people book because something doesn’t look right. Others want an independent check as a matter of course before the job is closed.

Look out for signs like these:

  • Underlay ending short at the eaves
  • Flashings not properly dressed or fixed
  • Debris left in gutters or valleys
  • Gutters or fascias damaged during the job

For an older house near a landmark like Church of St Nicholas, the roof’s history matters as much as its looks, and a survey brings the past repairs to light.

Before you book anyone

  • Which parts of the roof they’ll actually see
  • What they won’t be able to tell you
  • Their report turnaround times
  • Will they check the loft as well as the outside?

About our new roof snagging in Fullerton

We carry out new roof snagging in Fullerton and across London and the South East. A visit usually takes between one and two hours for a typical new house roof, longer where the roof is large or complicated. Everything visible from safe vantage points is checked, and by drone where it’s applicable. A photo report follows. Visits can be on weekdays, Saturdays or Sundays. Common reasons to book are gutters blocked by building debris and flashings not properly dressed or fixed, on new flat roofs, flashings and valleys and loft conversions and dormers.

In a village or hamlet like Fullerton, homes are often older cottages and farmhouses alongside a few newer houses. Village roofs can be clay tile, slate, stone or even thatch on some older buildings. Whether you are buying or have just had a roof replaced, each material has its own checks. Older roofs may also have old felt underlay or none, and fixings that have done a long stint.

Where we can’t see part of the new roof, the report says so. That way, it’s clear what was covered and what wasn’t, and what we’d suggest next.

Useful tips for Fullerton property owners

Nothing here needs a ladder. Our suggestions:

  • Let your roofer know an inspection is planned
  • Watch for drips in the roof space with care
  • Check lower roofs and walls after scaffolding comes down
  • Note the end of any warranty or defects period

Keep the report with any warranty papers from your roofer. It records the roof’s condition at that point.

Keep the final payment until the roof has been checked, where your contract allows. It keeps the job open until it is right.

New roof snagging around Fullerton

If your home is older, it’s worth knowing whether it’s listed or in a conservation area before planning roof work. Listed building consent covers changes to a listed building’s special interest, and an Article 4 direction can bring extra controls in a conservation area. A number of Hampshire villages keep thatched roofs on their older buildings. 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.

Landlords with a home close to Andover station may find that a survey before purchase, or before signing off a new roof, saves surprises once a tenant moves in.

Fullerton questions

Do you cover smaller places like Fullerton?

We do. A small place gets exactly the same survey as a big one, with the route planned beforehand.

Do you cover Fullerton?

Yes, Fullerton is one of the places we work. Every survey there gets the same written report with photographs.

How long does new roof snagging take?

It usually takes between one and two hours at most homes, with bigger or more complicated roofs taking longer. We’ll give you an idea when booking.

Do you survey on Saturdays and Sundays?

Surveys run on any day of the week. To find a day that suits you, phone 07833 053749 or email us.

What insurance do you have?

Professional indemnity and public liability insurance cover our surveys. If you need details for a managing agent or a building owner, just ask.

Does someone need to be in?

Not always. An outside-only look can be arranged beforehand, but the loft and any rooms with damp need someone to let us in.

What do you check on a new roof?

We check the coverings, ridges, verges, hips, valleys and flashings, along with ventilation, gutters and the underlay at the eaves. We look for leftover debris and knock-on damage too.

What we do, step by step

Every visit follows the same pattern: we hear what you’ve seen, inspect the roof from each safe vantage point, photograph what we find and make notes for the report. Most visits take about one to two hours for a typical new house roof, longer where the roof is large or complicated. Around Fullerton, 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.

  1. We start by finding out what was replaced and what worries you.
  2. The coverings, ridges, hips and verges are checked as far as can be seen safely.
  3. Valleys, flashings, gutters and the underlay at the eaves are looked at.
  4. We look in the loft space, where there is safe access, and around the property for debris or damage.
  5. The snags are written up with photos for you to share with your roofer.

Getting ready for the survey

  • If you are buying, check with the agent that we can get in
  • Point out any leaks or damp patches
  • Leave a clear route to the loft

Booking a survey

Once you know what you need, ring 07833 053749 or email us. From there it is a case of choosing a package, agreeing the price and fixing a day.

Roof by roof

Underlay and ventilation

At the eaves, the underlay should run into the gutter so water drains away. We check it where it’s visible.

Clay and concrete tiles

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

Honest limits

This isn’t a RICS building survey, a structural engineer’s report or an asbestos survey. It also has these limits:

  • Legal advice on your contract
  • Pricing the remedial work
  • What’s under the new coverings

If in doubt, call 07833 053749 or email us and we will recommend the right survey before you book. What our survey covers.
