New roof snagging in Hungerford
Our inspection covers the slates or tiles, ridges, verges, hips and valleys plus flashings and roof ventilation. We check the underlay at the eaves where it’s visible as well as the gutters. The report sets out what we found with photos. We also note debris left behind and any damage to other parts of the building. If you are worried about cracked or slipped new tiles or slates and flashings not properly dressed or fixed, a survey will tell you what’s going on, whatever the roof.
Some older homes in villages like Hungerford are listed or sit in a conservation area. If so, re-roofing in different materials may need consent, so check with the council before work starts. For a buyer or someone with a newly finished roof, it is 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.
Where we can’t see part of the new roof, the report says so. You will know exactly what was inspected and what wasn’t.

Do you need new roof snagging in Hungerford?
Vents can be left out, or insulation pushed against the eaves. Poor ventilation can lead to condensation in the loft.
A survey can pick up problems such as:
- Poorly finished verges
- Broken coverings left on a new roof
- Damage to other parts of the building
- Debris left in gutters or valleys
The streets around a church like Church of the Holy Ascension are frequently among the oldest in a place, and if you own one of the older houses nearby, the roof may have had decades of patch repairs, and the survey shows where they are.
Before you book any roof surveyor
- Whether VAT is added on top
- How much experience they have with roofs like yours
- If they fly a drone, whether they hold a CAA Flyer ID and Operator ID
- Whether the loft is part of the inspection
What new roof snagging looks like in Hungerford
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. Each material has its own typical faults, which is what a buyer or the owner of a new roof needs to know about. The wider area around Hungerford has a long history of building, with Breamore House about 4.3 miles north. If your house is among the older ones, expect a mix of original materials and later repairs on the roof.

FAQs for Hungerford
Do you cover Hungerford?
We do. The survey and report are the same in Hungerford as anywhere else, and visits run on weekdays and weekends.
Will you come out to Hungerford?
Yes, Hungerford is covered. We cover the whole of London and South East England, and smaller places are part of that. The journey is planned ahead, so it helps to know about access.
How do I arrange new roof snagging in Hungerford?
Simply phone 07833 053749 or drop us an email with the address. After a few questions, we confirm the price and fix a day.
When should I book new roof snagging?
Before the final payment is best, while the roofer is still on hand. If that’s passed, book before any defects or warranty period ends.
What’s the price of a snagging inspection?
New roof snagging starts from £150, including VAT. The price depends on the size of the roof and the access. To get a price, call 07833 053749 or send us an email.
What if it rains on the day?
It depends on the weather and the survey. In high wind or heavy rain, a drone cannot fly and access may not be safe, so we’d move the date with you.
Will you check every nail and clip?
No. We do not open up the new roof so hidden fixings are not visible to us. We note what couldn’t be seen.
Rented homes, blocks and businesses
An agent can book and manage the survey for a landlord. We agree a time with the tenant beforehand.
For a freeholder or residents’ company, a roof report is a sound basis for a maintenance plan, with the most urgent items set out first.
What we do, step by step
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 for most homes, depending on how much new work there is to check. For a village or hamlet like Hungerford, the journey is planned ahead of time: let us know about lanes, gates and parking. On the day, we inspect what can be seen safely, inside and out.
- We start by finding out what was replaced and what worries you.
- We look at the tiles or slates, ridges, hips and verges from safe vantage points.
- Valleys, flashings, gutters and the underlay at the eaves are looked at.
- We look in the roof space, where there is safe access, and around the property for debris or damage.
- We send a written report with photos of each snag.
Preparing for the visit
- Dig out any old roof reports or invoices
- If the roof is shared, arrange access with whoever manages the building
- Leave side gates unlocked
How to book
We survey roofs seven days a week. To arrange a day that suits you, phone 07833 053749 or send us an email.

Tips that help
Nothing here needs a ladder. A few suggestions:
- File all paperwork for the new roof
- Diary the defects period end date
- Check that gutters weren’t left full of offcuts
- Look for new stains after a downpour
How quickly the report arrives depends on the package: Basic within 48 hours, Standard in 24–48 hours and Premium the same day. If a payment is due soon, choose the package that fits.
Don’t settle the final bill until the roof has been inspected if your contract allows it. It gives the roofer a reason to finish everything.
Should I look at the roof myself first?
During heavy rain, look at the gutters from ground level or a window. Water spilling over the edge can be a sign of a blockage or a gutter that has dropped.
After heavy rain, check ceilings and the tops of walls for new stains. Photograph them and note the date, as it helps a surveyor trace the cause.
