New roof snagging near Grahame Park

Do you need new roof snagging in Grahame Park?

Scaffolding and materials can damage other parts of a building. We look for knock-on damage, not just the new roof.

Typical things we are asked to look at include:

  • Signs of condensation in the roof space
  • Gutters blocked by building debris
  • Underlay at the eaves left exposed
  • Ridge and hip tiles not properly fixed

If you let a flat or house near Mill Hill Broadway station, a roof report gives you a clear picture before you buy or settle up with a roofer.

Before booking anyone

  • Whether the loft is part of the inspection
  • What the report includes, and whether it has photos
  • How they’ll see the roof: from the ground, the loft, the roof or by drone
  • What the survey will not cover

What’s in a roof survey

New roof snagging in Grahame Park: what you get

We check the coverings, ridges, verges, hips and valleys plus flashings and roof ventilation. We check the underlay at the eaves where it’s visible, and we check the gutters too. The report sets out what we found with photos. Any debris left behind or damage to other parts is recorded too. We’re often asked to look into vents that weren’t fitted or are covered and loose flashings at walls or chimneys, on ridges and verges, replacement roofs and loft conversions and dormers.

Many London homes have been converted into flats, extended at the back or given a loft conversion with a dormer. 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 Grahame Park, 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.

The report works through the roof section by section, from the coverings down to the gutters. It records what’s sound as well as what is not.

How it works

Before we start, let us know why you’ve booked: a purchase, a leak, a storm, new work or simply peace of mind. It helps us focus on what matters most to you. Most visits take an hour or two at a typical home, while a commercial roof takes nearer three to four hours. London terraces rarely offer a view of the whole roof from one spot, so a visit in Grahame Park moves between viewpoints: the pavement, upstairs windows, the loft and any safe spot at the back. Shared stairs or a basement flat? Let us know who holds the keys.

  1. You tell us what work was done and when.
  2. The new coverings and roof edges are inspected as far as can be seen safely.
  3. Valleys, flashings, gutters and visible underlay at the eaves are looked at.
  4. We check the loft where safe and look for debris or damage.
  5. You get a photo report of each snag.

Before the survey

  • Make sure we can get to the back of the property
  • Show us where any leaks or stains appear
  • Make a note of anything you’d like us to look at

How to book

If you have photos of the roof, send them over. Pictures from the ground or a window are fine. To get started, call 07833 053749 or drop us an email.

Grahame Park homes and their roofs

Heath Hall, about 3.5 miles south-east, is one of the historic houses in the wider area around Grahame Park. On older houses around here, roofs often carry the marks of earlier repairs, from replaced slates to new lead. Outer London has plenty of Victorian and Edwardian terraces with slate roofs, but also a great many interwar semis, often with hipped roofs in clay or concrete tiles. On a semi of that age, the small roofs over the bays, the hip tiles and any later dormer each need their own look. Whether you are buying or checking new roofing work, knowing the materials helps make sense of what the inspection finds.

Grahame Park is in London, so parking needs planning: a visitor permit or a nearby bay makes the day easier, as a space near the door cannot be promised. Take an older house close to St Augustine Grahame Park: the roof may have had decades of patch repairs, and the survey shows where they are.

Can I check my roof myself?

Fresh stains on ceilings or walls after rain are worth noting. Take a photo and write down when you saw it, which helps when we look at the roof.

A DIY look is useful, but it is not a survey. You won’t see flashings, valleys or the backs of chimneys properly from the ground.

Questions from Grahame Park

Do you cover Grahame Park?

We do. Every survey there gets the same written report with photos.

Is parking a problem for a survey in Grahame Park?

Normally it is manageable with a little notice. Let us know the parking rules on your street and we will work around them.

How long have you been surveying roofs?

We have more than 20 years’ experience and have carried out more than 5,000 surveys across London and South East England.

What if it rains on the day?

It can, depending on the survey. Drone flights need calm, dry weather, and thermal imaging works best after a sunny day, with a dry roof and little wind. If the conditions aren’t right, we’ll talk to you about another date.

Do you survey on Saturdays and Sundays?

Surveys can be booked for any day of the week: Monday to Friday, Saturdays and Sundays. Let us know which days suit you when booking.

When should I book new roof snagging?

As soon as the work is finished, and before the final payment if you can. That leaves time to raise anything we find.

How do I arrange new roof snagging in Grahame Park?

It’s easiest to call 07833 053749 or send us an email. Give us the address and some details about the roof, and we’ll recommend the right survey. Surveys run seven days a week.

Different roofs, different checks

Ridges, hips and verges

Verge details can be rushed and get a proper look.

Flashings

Poorly finished flashings frequently show up on new roofs. We photograph any we find.

What happens if roof problems are left?

Leaving debris in gutters can cause overflows that soak walls. Finding it now is simpler than tracing damp later. Any roof job in Grahame Park means planning around parking, neighbours and access. Knowing what’s needed early gives you time to plan it calmly.

New roof snagging starts from £150, including VAT. What you pay depends on how big and how high the roof is, how it can safely be seen and which survey you book.
