New roof snagging in Lower Eashing
A snag is a fault or unfinished detail left when work is done. Roof snags often show at ridges, verges, valleys and flashings where the work is most fiddly. We check everything we can see safely and record what we find. Loose ridges, untidy verges, badly dressed flashings and leftover debris are typical snags. Typical surveys look at debris left in gutters or valleys and flashings not properly dressed or fixed, on new-build homes, loft conversions and dormers and ridges and verges.
Being in a small place like Lower Eashing makes no difference to the inspection itself: it just means planning the journey and access beforehand. If there are outbuildings with roofs you want checked, mention them when you book. Whether you are buying or checking new work, the same care goes into it. Visits can be booked on weekdays, Saturdays and Sundays.
If any part of the new roof couldn’t be seen safely, we say so in the report. That way, it’s clear what was covered and what wasn’t.

Different roofs, different checks
Slate roofs
Natural slate can last 100 years or more, so a new slate roof should be laid well. We look for slipped, cracked or uneven slates.
Clay and concrete tiles
Tiles that do not sit flat can let rain in. We note any that look out of place.
New roof snagging in Lower Eashing: local notes
The wider area around Lower Eashing has a long history of building, with Loseley Park about 2.7 miles north-east. Older roofs in the wider area can hide decades of patch repairs, so the detail matters, and the council can say whether a home is in a conservation area. Handmade clay tiles and tile-hung walls are typical of Surrey’s older houses. A few of Surrey’s oldest buildings have heavy Horsham stone slab roofs. Whether you are buying or checking new roofing work, knowing the materials helps make sense of what the inspection finds.
For landlords with property near Godalming station, the roof is worth checking before you add another property to a portfolio or pay a roofer in full. If you live in an older home near Church of St Mary, the roof may have had decades of patch repairs, and the survey shows where they are.

FAQs for Lower Eashing
Do you carry out roof surveys in Lower Eashing?
Yes, Lower Eashing is within the area we cover. We work right across London and South East England. Just phone 07833 053749 or send us an email and let us know about the property.
Is my home in Lower Eashing listed or in a conservation area?
Start with Historic England’s list for listing and your council for conservation areas. Either can affect what roof work is allowed, so it’s worth checking before planning any.
Can you survey at the weekend?
We survey seven days a week: Monday to Friday, Saturdays and Sundays. Let us know which days suit you as you book.
Will you deal with my roofer if there is a problem?
No. Our job is to report on the roof as we find it. A disagreement about the work is between you and them, and the report gives you a clear record to refer to.
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.
Does the weather affect the survey?
Light rain is normally fine; heavy rain and wind are different. In strong wind or a downpour, a drone can’t fly and access may not be safe, and we’d agree another day.
Do you carry professional indemnity insurance?
Professional indemnity and public liability insurance cover our surveys. If you need details for a managing agent or a building owner, just ask.

We don’t take risks to get a closer look. We inspect whatever is safely visible, and anything we can’t see is noted in the report.
