New roof snagging for homes and businesses in Mindenhurst
Our report records what we see, with photos and clear descriptions. Any dispute about the work is between you and your roofer or builder. What we provide is an independent record of the roof’s condition. The report does not price repairs or settle who is responsible, but it does set out clearly what we found. We survey loft conversions and dormers, ridges and verges and new-build homes, and common reasons people get in touch are verge tiles or slates not secured and damage to other parts of the building.
Somewhere as small as Mindenhurst, older cottages, farmhouses and converted buildings often sit beside a few newer homes. Village roofs can be clay tile, slate, stone or even thatch on some older buildings. Whether you are buying or have just had a roof replaced, each material has its own checks, and thatch is a specialist material, so we report on what can be seen. Older roofs may also have old felt underlay or none, and fixings that have done a long stint.
The report is written in plain words, so you do not need to be a roofer to follow it. Each point is backed by a photo where possible, and recommendations are put by urgency where it matters.

Signs you need new roof snagging in Mindenhurst
Ventilation is sometimes missed or blocked during re-roofing. Without enough airflow, condensation can build up in the loft space.
We’re frequently asked to look at:
- Cracked or slipped new tiles or slates
- Gutters or fascias damaged during the job
- Missing or blocked roof ventilation
- Cracked mortar at the ridge or hips
For landlords with property near Farnborough North station, the roof is worth checking before you add another property to a portfolio or pay a roofer in full.
What to check before booking
- Will the report include photos?
- Which limits apply to the survey
- Whether the price includes VAT
- Do they have a CAA Flyer ID and Operator ID for drone work?
Mindenhurst: your questions answered
How do I find out if my home in Mindenhurst is listed?
We can’t confirm that for you, but Historic England’s list and your council can. A change of roofing material may need consent in either case.
Do you cover smaller places like Mindenhurst?
Yes, smaller places are covered as well as towns. We survey roofs across London and South East England. Just mention lanes, gates or anything else about the route as you book.
Can you see the fixings under the tiles?
No. We don’t open up the new roof, so fixings under the coverings can’t be checked. We note what couldn’t be seen.
Is snagging available for a new-build house roof?
Yes, new-build roofs are checked in the same way as replacement roofs. You get a photo report of any snags to raise with the builder.
How long does new roof snagging take?
Most house visits take about 1–2 hours, and longer for large or complex roofs.
Do you use drones?
Where it helps and the rules allow, yes. We hold a CAA Flyer ID and Operator ID and fly a drone under 250g, and every flight depends on the airspace and the weather.
What insurance do you have?
We hold professional indemnity and public liability insurance, for every survey we carry out.
DIY checks: what’s safe
You can learn a lot from the ground. Binoculars help you spot slipped slates or tiles, gaps along the ridge and a leaning stack. Never climb onto the roof to look.
Fresh stains on ceilings or walls after rain are worth noting. Photograph them and note the date, as it helps a surveyor trace the cause.

Other services in Mindenhurst
New roof snagging around Mindenhurst
Older buildings may be listed or sit in a conservation area. Historic England’s list shows listed buildings, and the council can say whether a street is in a conservation area. Re-roofing in different materials may need permission there. 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. Each material has its own typical faults, which is what a buyer or the owner of a new roof needs to know about.
In and around Mindenhurst, as anywhere, a roof is easiest to deal with when its problems are found early.

What a survey costs comes down to the roof itself: how big it is, how high it is, the number of separate roofs and how it can be reached and seen safely. Prices start from £150, including VAT.

Take a look at how roof surveys are priced and what we found on two real jobs.
Before and after the survey
There is plenty you can do without going near the roof. What helps most:
- Check the roof before you pay in full
- Put any issues to your roofer in writing
- Check lower roofs and walls after scaffolding comes down
- Tell your roofer the work will be inspected
Once the work is finished, check the ceilings and loft after the next downpour. If anything shows, tell your roofer straight away.
Keep an eye on the roof and ceilings in the first months. Early signs are easier to raise while the work is recent.
What affects the cost of new roof snagging
Our packages start from £150, inc. VAT. What you pay for your roof depends on:
- If the survey needs thermal imaging or a drone
- How complicated the roof is, with its valleys, chimneys and parapets
- The package you choose: Basic, Standard or Premium
- The size of the roof
One thing that affects the price is the package: Basic from £150, Standard from £250 or Premium from £400, all inc. VAT. Size, height and access can affect the price too.
Helping us price your survey
There’s no need for technical words. Just tell us:
- Pictures of the roof from a safe spot, if you have them
- When you need the report by
- Where the property is, with the postcode
- Access details, such as a loft hatch or a shared roof
A quick phone call is typically the easiest start: phone 07833 053749 or use the contact form. The price is agreed before a date is set.
How it works
The visit typically starts outside and finishes in the loft: outside views come first, then the roof space if there’s safe access. All told, expect about one to two hours at a typical home, with bigger or more complicated roofs taking longer. Somewhere as small as Mindenhurst, access is often the only tricky part. Let us know about outbuildings, past repairs and any leaks you’ve noticed. Visits can be on weekdays, Saturdays or Sundays.
- We start with what the roofer did and when they finished.
- The new coverings and roof edges are inspected as far as can be seen safely.
- We look at valleys, flashings, gutters and the underlay at the eaves.
- We check the loft where safe and look for debris or damage.
- You get a photo report of each snag.
How to prepare
- If you are buying, check with the agent that we can get in
- Leave a clear route to the loft
- Show us where any leaks or stains appear
How to book
