New roof snagging in Millbridge, Surrey
New roof snagging across Millbridge, backed by more than 20 years’ experience. Every survey ends with a written report and photographs.
- Loose or badly finished ridge tiles
- Underlay not dressed into the gutter
- Debris left in gutters or valleys
What happens on the day
Before we start, let us know why you’ve booked: buying, a leak, storm damage, new work or just wanting to know where things stand. That way we can focus on what matters to you. The visit typically takes between one and two hours on an ordinary house, rising to roughly 3–4 hours on a commercial building. In a hamlet or village like Millbridge, a postcode doesn’t 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.
- You tell us what work was done and when.
- We check the coverings, ridges, hips and verges from safe vantage points.
- Valleys, flashings, gutters and visible underlay at the eaves are looked at.
- The roof space and the rest of the property are checked for problems.
- Snags are listed in a written report with photos.
How to prepare
- Jot down any questions you want answered
- Dig out any old roof reports or invoices
- Let us know about any leaks, stains or damp patches you know of

New roof snagging in Millbridge: what you get
Our report records what we see, with photos and clear descriptions. Any dispute about the work is between you and your roofer or builder. Our report gives you an independent record to refer to. The report doesn’t price repairs or settle who is responsible, but it describes what we saw in plain terms. Common reasons to book are debris left in gutters or valleys and verge tiles or slates not secured, across ridges and verges, replacement roofs and loft conversions and dormers.
Somewhere as small as Millbridge, older cottages, farmhouses and converted buildings often sit beside a few newer homes. Older roofs there may have clay tiles, slate, stone or, in some places, thatch. Each covering has its own weak points, whether the roof is old or newly laid. What’s under the coverings, from old felt to the battens and nails, matters too.
The report works through the roof section by section, from the coverings down to the gutters. It records what’s sound as well as what is not.

What new roof snagging looks like in Millbridge
Older houses across Surrey often have handmade clay tiles, and many have tile-hanging. 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. Farnham Castle, about 3.1 miles north, is one of the historic houses in the wider area around Millbridge. Older roofs in the wider area can hide decades of patch repairs, so the detail matters, and any change of roofing material on a listed home needs checking with the council first.
Landlords with a home close to Farnham station may find that a survey before purchase, or before signing off a new roof, saves surprises once a tenant moves in.
Millbridge is about 2 miles south of Farnham, in Surrey. We carry out new roof snagging for householders, landlords and businesses in Millbridge. Across Surrey, we cover Millbridge and the places around it. We also survey roofs in Guildford.

When to book a survey in Millbridge
Scaffolding and materials can damage other parts of a building. A snagging check looks around the property as well as at the roof.
Here are some of the things we see often:
- Gaps at new flashings
- Poorly finished verges
- Underlay at the eaves left exposed
- Loose or badly finished ridge tiles
If your home is one of the older ones in the streets near Church of St Mary the Virgin, a survey will show how the roof has been repaired before, which helps you judge what’s coming.

Questions from Millbridge
Is Millbridge in the area you cover?
Yes, Millbridge is one of the places we work. The survey and report are the same in Millbridge as anywhere else.
How do I find out if my home in Millbridge is listed?
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.
Do you check new-build roofs?
Yes. We check new-build roofs from safe vantage points and the roof space and record any snags. It is worth booking before your builder’s defects period ends.
Is it the same as a RICS Level 2 or Level 3 survey?
No. We are experienced roof surveyors, and our survey covers the roof rather than the whole building. For the rest of the building, a RICS home survey is a separate job.
Which days do you carry out surveys?
We carry out surveys seven days a week. To find a day that suits you, ring 07833 053749 or email us.
Will you fly a drone over my roof?
Where it is applicable and safe, yes. We’re a CAA-registered drone operator (Flyer ID and Operator ID), flying a sub-250g drone. Drone inspection is part of the Drone Roof Survey and the Premium Survey, where it applies.
Do I need to be at home?
If the survey includes the loft or the inside of the building, someone needs to let us in. Access is agreed with you when you book.
DIY checks: what’s safe
Watch the gutters in a downpour, from a window or the ground. Water spilling over the edge can be a sign of a blockage or a gutter that has dropped.
Fresh stains on ceilings or walls after rain are worth noting. Take a photo and write down when you saw it, which helps when we look at the roof.
Leave it or get it looked at?
Leaving debris in gutters can cause overflows that soak walls. Spotting it now saves chasing damp later. For an older or listed building in a place like Millbridge, repairs may need matching materials and consent, so a defect found early gives time to plan the work properly.
