About our new roof snagging in Fulwell
Snagging means finding the small faults and loose ends left at the end of a job. On a roof, snags are often at the edges and junctions where the work is most fiddly. We check everything we can see safely and photograph each snag. Loose ridges, untidy verges, badly dressed flashings and leftover debris are typical snags. We survey new flat roofs, replacement roofs and flashings and valleys, and people most often book us about untidy or loose verge details and signs of condensation in the roof space.
In London, a good many houses have been split into flats, extended or fitted with a dormer loft conversion. Each change adds roof details, such as flat roofs, new flashings and junctions with the original slopes. If you are buying a flat or house in Fulwell, or have just had new roofing work done, those junctions are often where problems start. Dormer cheeks, lead work and new flat roofs are worth checking closely, as faults there are easy to miss.
Pictures do a lot of the work in our reports, so you can see each defect rather than just read about it. Anything out of sight on the day is listed as such.

New roof snagging around Fulwell
The wider area around Fulwell has a long history of building, with Strawberry Hill House about 0.6 miles north-east. Older homes in the wider area often have features worth a closer look, such as lead valleys, tall stacks and roofs that have been patched over the years, and any change of roofing material on a listed home needs checking with the council first. Outer London has a good many Victorian and Edwardian terraces with slate roofs, but also a great many interwar semis, frequently with hipped roofs in clay or concrete tiles. If your home in Fulwell is one of them, bay roofs, hips and later dormers each have their own details. Material and age explain a lot of what turns up on the day, whether the roof is old or brand new.
Fulwell is in London, so parking needs planning: let us know about permits, visitor bays or off-street space as you book. If you own a rental within reach of Fulwell station, a survey before purchase, or before signing off a new roof, saves surprises once a tenant moves in. For an older house near a landmark such as St Michael's, older patch repairs can hide behind a tidy front slope, and the survey looks past them.

Why it is worth a survey now in Fulwell
A minor snag left alone can turn into a leak. A slipped verge tile or a loose flashing may let water through during the first winter. Finding them early means they can be dealt with quickly. In Fulwell, as across London, an overflowing gutter soaks the wall below, which can lead to damp inside. A blocked outlet ignored for a winter or two can mean damp walls inside.
Simple, low roofs take less time to survey than tall or complicated ones, and the package matters as well. The price is always agreed first.

Fulwell questions
How do I find out if my home in Fulwell is listed?
Historic England’s list shows listed buildings, and the local council can tell you about conservation areas. If a home is listed, changes that affect its special interest need listed building consent, and in a conservation area re-roofing in different materials may need permission.
Do you cover Fulwell?
Yes, Fulwell is one of the places we work. Every survey there gets the same written report with photographs, and visits run on weekdays and weekends.
Do you use drones?
Where it helps and the rules allow, yes. Our sub-250g drone is flown by a CAA-registered operator with a Flyer ID and Operator ID, and every flight depends on the airspace and the weather.
Is this an asbestos survey?
No. Asbestos surveys and testing are not part of what we do. If we see materials that could contain asbestos, like cement roof sheets or soffits on buildings from before 2000, we flag them.
How long does new roof snagging take?
Most house visits take about 1–2 hours, and longer for large or complex roofs.
Do you carry out surveys on Saturdays and Sundays?
We survey seven days a week: Monday to Friday, Saturdays and Sundays. Tell us which days suit you when you book.
When should I book new roof snagging?
Ideally before you make the final payment so snags can be raised while the job is still open. Otherwise, book before your defects or warranty period runs out.
Roof by roof
Clay and concrete tiles
Tiles that don’t sit flat can let rain in. We note any that look out of place.
Valleys
Debris left in a new valley can block it. We note anything left behind.
How the survey works
We check the roof from outside and, where it is relevant and there is safe access, from inside the roof space too. Inside, we look for staining, damp, gaps and signs of movement, as far as the space allows. The whole visit usually takes an hour or two for most homes, depending on how much new work there is to check. From the street, a London terrace normally shows only its front slope or parapet, so a visit in Fulwell moves between viewpoints: the pavement, upstairs windows, the loft and any safe spot at the back. Shared stairs or a basement flat? Tell us who holds the keys.
- We agree what to focus on, like a payment date or a warranty period ending.
- We inspect as far as safe access allows.
- We work through ridges, verges, valleys and flashings.
- We check the gutters, lower roofs and walls for debris or damage.
- You receive a report to share with your roofer.
Getting ready for the survey
