New Roof Snagging in Hampers Green
Know where you stand with the new roof before you decide what to do next. We carry out new roof snagging in Hampers Green, with photos and a clear written report.
- Gutters blocked by building debris
- Damage to other parts of the building
- Poorly finished verges
What happens if roof problems are left?
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. Matching old materials, like handmade tiles or stone slates, can take time to source. That’s one more reason to find defects before they become urgent.
Price depends partly on the package: Basic from £150, Standard from £250 or Premium from £400, all with VAT included. Size, height and access can affect the price too.

How new roof snagging works in Hampers Green
We check the coverings, ridges, verges, hips and valleys plus flashings and roof ventilation. At the eaves we look at how the underlay is dressed into the gutter, where it can be seen as well as the gutters. You get a photo report of what we found. Any debris left behind or damage to other parts is recorded too. We survey replacement roofs, ridges and verges and new-build homes, and common reasons people get in touch are gutters or fascias damaged during the job and verge tiles or slates not secured.
Older buildings in small places like Hampers Green may be listed or in a conservation area. That can affect what materials a new roof may use, so check with the council and Historic England’s list. For a buyer or someone with a newly finished roof, it’s worth knowing which applies, as well as what condition the roof is in. There are about 500,000 listed buildings and around 10,000 conservation areas in England.
You receive the findings by email, ready to forward to whoever needs them. Basic reports come within 48 hours, Standard within 24–48 hours and Premium on the day.

Should I look at the roof myself first?
It helps to keep a record: when leaks happen, ground-level photos and any past roof work. Share it with us when booking, as it helps us focus the survey.
If you have a loft with safe access, take a look inside. Take a torch and only step on boards or joists, checking for stains, damp wood or chinks of daylight.
What new roof snagging doesn’t cover
It is useful to know what a survey won’t do before booking:
- Repair costs for putting snags right
- Whether the roof will leak in future
- Nails and clips under the slates or tiles
If in doubt, call 07833 053749 or drop us an email and we will recommend the right survey before booking. What our survey covers.
What we check

- Replacement roofs
- Loft conversions and dormers
- Ridges and verges

What we look for on each type of roof
Valleys
A valley takes water from two slopes, so it needs to be finished well. We check the valley lining and the cut tiles or slates beside it.
Slate roofs
Broken slates left on a new roof are a common snag. We record any we can see.

What else we do in Hampers Green
How it works
When we arrive, we start by asking what you’ve noticed and what you’d like to know. After that, we look at everything we can see safely, from the ground, from windows, in the loft space and by drone where it applies. The survey usually takes between one and two hours for a typical new house roof, longer where the roof is large or complicated. Rural addresses near Hampers Green can be hard to find from a postcode alone, so a few directions are welcome. After that, the survey runs as it would anywhere.
- First, we note any deadlines and concerns.
- We inspect as far as safe access allows.
- Each detail at ridges, verges, valleys and flashings is looked at.
- 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
- Clear the way to the loft hatch
- Note where any stains or damp appear
- For a flat or shared roof, check access with the building owner or managing agent

How do I find out if my home in Hampers Green is listed?
Start with Historic England’s list for listing and your council for conservation areas. Either can affect what roof work is allowed, so it is worth checking before planning any.
What’s the price of a snagging inspection?

Does someone need to be in?
That depends on the survey. Inside the building and in the loft, we need someone to let us in, while outside access can be discussed when you book.
How soon after the work should I book a snagging inspection?
Before the final payment is best so snags can be raised while the job is still open. If that’s passed, book before any defects or warranty period ends.
Which parts of the roof does snagging cover?
We check the coverings, ridges, verges, hips, valleys and flashings plus gutters, ventilation and visible underlay at the eaves. We also look for debris left behind and damage to other parts.
Do you climb onto every roof?
Only if it’s safe. We inspect whatever is safely visible: from ground level, from windows, from inside the roof space, from the roof where it is safe and by drone where it applies. The report says if anything couldn’t be seen.
