New Roof Snagging in Langrish
New roof snagging in Langrish, backed by more than 20 years’ experience. Every survey ends with a written report and photographs.
- Signs of condensation in the loft space
- Poorly finished verges
- Cracked mortar at the ridge or hips
How the survey changes by roof type
Slate roofs
Broken slates left on a new roof are a common snag. We record any we can see.
Ridges, hips and verges
Cracked mortar or loose ridge tiles on a new roof are worth raising. We photograph any we find.
New roof snagging for homes and businesses in Langrish
People book us after having a roof replaced or re-covered, and buyers of new-build homes sometimes want the roof checked. We inspect each roof as far as safe access allows, from ground level, vantage points, the roof space and the roof where safe. A photo report follows, ready to share with your roofer or builder. If you’ve noticed untidy or loose verge details and underlay at the eaves left exposed, a survey will tell you what’s going on, on flashings and valleys, new-build homes and loft conversions and dormers alike.
Older buildings in small places like Langrish 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. Whether you are buying or signing off new roofing, it is worth knowing where you stand. There are about 500,000 listed buildings and around 10,000 conservation areas in England.
We write the report in plain English, so it makes sense without any roofing background. Photographs show what each point refers to.

Landlords, agents and block managers in Langrish
Letting agents can arrange access with tenants, at a time agreed in advance. Surveys run on weekdays and at weekends, which helps when tenants work during the week.
Surveys can also be booked by buyers’ agents acting for a client. Reports are emailed, so they’re easy to pass on, photos included.
What affects the price in Langrish
We confirm the exact price before you book. These are the things that affect it:
- How big the roof is
- Building height and the viewpoints available
- The type of building, from a house to a block or an office
- How many separate roofs there are, such as extensions, dormers and garages
Price depends partly on the package: Basic from £150, Standard from £250 or Premium from £400, all inc. VAT. The roof’s size, height and access matter as well.
Booking your survey
You don’t need to know any roofing terms. Just let us know:
- Your postcode, so we can check access and travel
- Where any leaks, stains or damp patches show inside
- Why you want a survey: buying, a leak, a storm or new work
- How the loft is reached, if there is one
Buyers should book once an offer has been accepted, so you have the findings in time to act on them before you exchange. For any other survey, just ring 07833 053749 or email us when you’re ready.
Langrish questions
Does a conservation area affect roof work in Langrish?
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.
Is Langrish within the area you cover?
Yes, Langrish is on our map. A small place gets exactly the same survey as a big one, with the route planned beforehand.
Will you check the loft?
Yes, where the survey calls for it and there is safe access. Inside, we look for damp, staining, gaps and sagging.
Can you tell me if my roof has asbestos?
No. Asbestos surveys and sampling are not something we do. Where a material might contain it, such as old cement sheets on a building from before 2000, the report flags it.
Do you survey roofs on blocks of flats?
Yes, as long as access is agreed. The roof of a block or converted house is often shared, so we need permission from whoever owns or manages the building. We can only inspect what we are given access to.
Do I have to be there for the survey?
That depends on the survey. For inside areas and the roof space, someone has to give us access; we will agree the details when booking.
Which days do you carry out surveys?
Visits run seven days a week in the daytime. Just say which days work for you.
Why act early in Langrish
Phone photos from the garden cannot show much. Our inspection looks as closely as can be done safely using a drone where it applies. Where a roof is exposed, as many are in small places like Langrish, driving rain gets into any weakness, and older walls, once damp, take a long time to dry.
What a survey costs comes down to the roof itself: its size, its height, how many sections it has and how it can be reached and seen safely. Prices start from £150, including VAT.
Why us?
- CAA-registered drone operator (Flyer ID and Operator ID)
- Over 5,000 surveys carried out
- PI and public liability insurance
- More than 20 years surveying roofs

What you can safely check yourself
It is useful to keep a record: dates of leaks, photos from ground level and any work done on the roof. Share it with us when booking, as it helps us focus the survey.
A DIY look is useful, but it is not a survey. You won’t see flashings, valleys or the backs of chimneys properly from ground level.

New roof snagging in Langrish: local notes
A number of Hampshire villages keep thatched roofs on their older buildings. In this part of the South East, older roofs are mostly slate or clay tile and many newer ones concrete tile. Each material has its own typical faults, which is what a buyer or the owner of a new roof needs to know about. There are about 500,000 buildings on England’s list of listed buildings, and around 10,000 conservation areas. If your 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, so the council is the place to ask.
If you let a flat or house near Petersfield station, the roof is worth checking before you add another property to a portfolio or pay a roofer in full. The streets around a church such as Church of St John the Evangelist are often among the oldest in a place, and if your house is among the older ones nearby, ask the seller about past roof repairs, because older roofs often have patched valleys, replaced slates and reset ridges.

The survey, step by step
We photograph the roof as we go, so the report shows exactly what we saw. We take close-ups from wherever is safe, including by drone where it is applicable and the weather allows. Most surveys take about one to two hours for most homes, depending on how much new work there is to check. In a hamlet or village like Langrish, a postcode does not always lead to the right gate, so a few directions, or a note of a nearby landmark, help us arrive on time. The visit itself is the same as anywhere else.
- First, we note any deadlines and concerns.
- The roof is inspected from the ground, vantage points and the roof where safe.
- 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.
Getting ready for the survey
- Dig out any old roof reports or invoices
- Let us know about parking near the property
- Unlock side gates and any roof access doors
