New roof snagging for Monxton homes and businesses

New roof snagging in Monxton: what you get

Roof work often leaves debris behind. We look for broken tiles, offcuts and nails left in gutters and on lower roofs, and for damage to other parts of the building. It’s all recorded with photos. Debris left in gutters and valleys can block them, and cracked lower roofs can leak. It’s easier to raise them while the job is fresh. If you’ve noticed missing or blocked roof ventilation and gutters or fascias damaged during the job, we can find out what’s behind it, whatever the roof.

Somewhere as small as Monxton, 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.

Every survey ends with a written report, with photos, emailed to you. It sets out the condition of the new roof, any defects and our written recommendations.

Landlord and commercial surveys in Monxton

Businesses and commercial landlords can book us too. Bigger roofs take more time.

Roof problems in a rented home affect tenants as well as the building. A survey shows what needs attention, so you can plan the work with less disruption.

Common questions in Monxton

Is my home in Monxton 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.

Do you cover Monxton?

We do. The survey and report are the same in Monxton as anywhere else.

How do I arrange new roof snagging in Monxton?

To arrange a survey, call 07833 053749 or use the contact form with the address, the type of property and what’s prompted the survey. We’ll confirm the price and find a day that suits.

Which days do you carry out surveys?

Surveys can be booked for any day of the week: Monday to Friday, Saturdays and Sundays. Let us know which days suit you when booking.

Do you check new-build roofs?

Yes, new-build roofs are checked in the same way as replacement roofs. The report lists snags with photographs for you to pass to your builder.

Can you tell me if my roof has asbestos?

No. We don’t carry out asbestos surveys or testing. If we see materials that could contain asbestos, like cement roof sheets or soffits on buildings from before 2000, we flag them and suggest a specialist asbestos surveyor checks them before any work.

What insurance do you have?

We are covered by professional indemnity and public liability insurance, for every survey we carry out.

Monxton homes and their roofs

Listing and conservation areas can both shape what roof work is allowed on an older home. Your council and Historic England’s list will tell you where you stand, before anyone quotes for re-roofing. Some Hampshire villages still have thatched roofs. In this part of the South East, older roofs are mostly slate or clay tile and many newer ones concrete tile. The covering on a house you’re buying, or on a roof just finished, tells us where to look hardest.

The streets around a church such as Church of St Mary are frequently among the oldest in a place, and if your home is one of the older ones nearby, a survey will show how the roof has been repaired before, which helps you judge what’s coming. If you own a rental within reach of Andover station, the roof is worth checking before you add another property to a portfolio or pay a roofer in full.

What we do, step by step

Where it’s relevant and can be reached safely, the roof space is checked as well as the outside. Inside, we look for staining, damp, gaps and signs of movement. All in, the survey usually takes roughly 1–2 hours for a typical new house roof, longer where the roof is large or complicated. Somewhere like Monxton needs a little journey planning: let us know about lanes, gates and parking. The roof is looked at from ground level, from windows, from the loft where there is safe access and from the roof where it’s safe.

  1. First, we note any deadlines and concerns.
  2. The roof is inspected from ground level, vantage points and the roof where safe.
  3. We work through ridges, verges, valleys and flashings.
  4. Debris and damage to other parts are recorded.
  5. You receive a report to share with your roofer.

How to prepare

  • Make a note of anything you’d like us to look at
  • Point out any leaks or damp patches
  • Check pets are kept safely away

How to book

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.

Clay and concrete tiles

Verge and eaves tiles are where snags frequently show on tiled roofs. We check them closely.

What we can’t see

It’s useful to know what a survey will not do before you book:

  • Parts of the roof we cannot see safely
  • Fixings and underlay hidden under the coverings
  • Settling a dispute with your roofer or builder

If you are not sure which survey you need, ring 07833 053749 or send us an email and we’ll give you a straight answer before booking. What our survey covers.

What we look at

  • Replacement roofs
  • Flashings and valleys
  • Ridges and verges
  • Loft conversions and dormers
  • New-build homes
  • New flat roofs

What affects the price in Monxton

Every roof is different, so prices are confirmed before booking. These are the things that affect it:

  • Basic, Standard or Premium
  • The size of the roof
  • The number of roofs, including extensions and garages
  • How complicated the roof is, with its valleys, chimneys and parapets

Prices start from £150, including VAT. Basic starts from £150, Standard from £250 and Premium from £400, VAT included, and we can help you choose.

Helping us price your survey

We’ll typically ask about:

  • The reason for the survey, like buying, a leak or storm damage
  • The address and postcode of the property
  • Any marks or damp showing indoors
  • Photos of the roof, taken safely from the ground or a window

New roof snagging starts from £150, including VAT. What you pay depends on the roof’s size, access and the package, so call 07833 053749 or send us an email with the details.

Can I check my roof myself?

If you have a loft with safe access, take a look inside. Use a torch and stay on the joists or boards, and look for staining, damp timber or daylight coming through.

Fresh stains on ceilings or walls after rain are worth noting. Photograph them and note the date, which helps when we check the roof.
