New Roof Snagging in Hannington
Find out the condition of the new roof at your property in Hannington from an independent roof surveyor. We visit on weekdays and at weekends.
- Verge tiles or slates not secured
- Missing or blocked roof ventilation
- Loose or badly finished ridge tiles
How it works
There is not much for you to do on the day. Show us any stains, drips or problem areas you know about, and we will get on with the inspection. The survey itself takes about 1–2 hours at most homes, or half a day or so for a commercial building. Around Hannington, older homes can have small or awkward roof spaces, so it helps to know whether there’s a loft hatch and how easy it is to reach. Only areas that can be reached safely are inspected.
- First, we note any deadlines and concerns.
- We inspect as far as safe access allows.
- We work through ridges, verges, valleys and flashings.
- Debris and damage to other parts are recorded.
- We send a written report you can pass on.
Preparing for the visit
- Tell us about any leaks, stains or damp patches you know of
- Mention any parking restrictions on your street
- Keep pets in another room
Booking a survey
Surveys can be booked for weekdays, Saturdays or Sundays. To arrange a day that suits you, call 07833 053749 or send us an email with the address and the days you’d prefer.

About our new roof snagging in Hannington
People book us after having a roof replaced or re-covered, and buyers of new-build homes sometimes want the roof checked. Whatever the roof, we inspect as far as it can safely be seen including from the loft and the roof where it is safe. A photo report follows, ready to share with your roofer or builder. We survey flashings and valleys, new-build homes and new flat roofs, and the problems we are asked to look at most are broken coverings left on a new roof and cracked mortar at the ridge or hips.
Older buildings in small places like Hannington 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 is worth knowing where you stand. England has around 10,000 conservation areas and about 500,000 listed buildings.
Most points in the report come with a picture, because a photo of a cracked flashing says more than a paragraph. If something couldn’t be seen safely, the report is clear about it.

FAQs for Hannington
Do you carry out roof surveys in Hannington?
Yes. We work right across London and South East England, and Hannington is part of that. Just ring 07833 053749 or drop us an email and tell us about the property.
Is my home in Hannington listed or in a conservation area?
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.
What’s the best time to have a new roof checked?
Ideally before you make the final payment, while the roofer is still on hand. If that is passed, book before any defects or warranty period ends.
I live in a flat. Can you survey the roof?
Yes, if the freeholder or managing agent agrees access. On a shared roof we can only inspect the parts we’re allowed to reach.
Will you walk on the roof?
Only when it’s safe. Some roofs are too steep or fragile to walk on safely. Safe viewpoints, the loft and a drone where it applies let us see the rest, and the report records anything we couldn’t see.
Do you need to get into the loft?
Where it’s relevant to the survey and there’s safe access, yes. A clear path to the hatch helps.
What’s the best way to book?
Just phone 07833 053749 or send us an email with the address. We’ll ask a few questions, confirm the price and agree a date, weekday or weekend.
Useful tips for Hannington property owners
Here are a few things we’d tell any owner, before and after a survey:
- Check before your warranty period ends
- Watch for gutters overflowing in rain
- Look for new stains after a downpour
- Raise snags in writing with your roofer
After the snags are sorted, watch the roof in the next heavy rain. If anything shows, tell your roofer straight away.
Keep the final payment until the roof has been checked if your contract allows it. It gives the roofer a reason to finish everything.
Signs you need new roof snagging in Hannington
Even good roofers can leave snags at the end of a job. Fiddly details are often where things go wrong particularly in poor weather.
Typical things we’re asked to look at include:
- Debris left in gutters or valleys
- Broken coverings left on a new roof
- Poorly finished verges
- Flashings not properly dressed or fixed
The streets around a church such as Church of All Saints are often among the oldest in a place, and if your house is among the older ones nearby, the roof’s history matters as much as its looks, and a survey brings the past repairs to light.
Before you book anyone
- What insurance they carry
- How they plan to inspect the roof safely
- Their report turnaround times
- How long they’ve been surveying roofs
Buying a home or a new roof in Hannington
Some Hampshire villages still have thatched roofs. Across the South East, older homes tend to have slate or clay tiles, and many later ones concrete tiles. For a purchase or a newly finished roof, the materials decide which details matter most. What can be done to an older roof may depend on listing or a conservation area. Your council and Historic England’s list will tell you where you stand, before anyone quotes for re-roofing.
If you own a rental within reach of Overton station, a survey before purchase, or before signing off a new roof, saves surprises once a tenant moves in.

Roof by roof
Ridges, hips and verges
Ridges, hips and verges take the most weather. Bedding, dry-fix pieces and fixings are looked at where visible.
Underlay and ventilation
Vents at the ridge, eaves or in the tiles help keep the loft space dry. Fitted vents are checked.
