About our new roof snagging in Mundaydean Bottom
Our report records what we see with photos and plain descriptions. If there’s a disagreement about the work, it’s between you and your roofer or builder. What we provide is an independent record of the roof’s condition. We do not give repair cost estimates or decide who is at fault, but it does set out clearly what we found. If you’ve noticed gutters or fascias damaged during the job and missing or blocked roof ventilation, we can find out what’s behind it, whatever the roof.
Somewhere as small as Mundaydean Bottom, 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. Whether you are buying or have just had a roof replaced, each material has its own checks. What’s under the coverings, from old felt to the battens and nails, matters too.
Where we cannot see part of the new roof, the report says so. You will know exactly what was inspected and what wasn’t, and what we’d suggest next.

How it works
There is not much for you to do on the day. Show us any stains, drips or problem areas you know about, and we’ll take it from there. The survey itself takes between one and two hours on an ordinary house, though large, tall or awkward roofs take more time. Older rural homes like those around Mundaydean Bottom can have a main roof, lower lean-to roofs and outbuildings all joined together. We work round each section in turn, from the safest viewpoints.
- First, you let us know what the roofer did and any concerns you have.
- The new coverings, ridge, hips and verges are inspected where it is safe to see them.
- We check valleys, flashings and gutters, and the underlay at the eaves where it’s visible.
- The loft space is looked at where safe, along with any mess or damage left after the work.
- You get a photo report listing the snags we found.
Preparing for the visit
- Let us know about parking near the property
- Dig out any old roof reports or invoices
- Keep pets in another room

Your questions about new roof snagging in Mundaydean Bottom
Do you cover smaller places like Mundaydean Bottom?
Yes, Mundaydean Bottom is on our map. Villages and rural addresses get the same survey as a town house, with the route planned beforehand.
Do you cover Mundaydean Bottom?
Yes. Our area covers London and South East England, and Mundaydean Bottom is part of that. You can phone 07833 053749 or drop us an email with the address and some details, and we will talk through which survey suits.
Is this a RICS survey?
No. Our survey is a roof survey, not a RICS Level 2 or Level 3 survey of the whole building. It focuses on the roof and can sit alongside a RICS survey.
Will you walk on the roof?
Only when it’s safe. Safety comes first, and fragile or steep roofs can’t always be walked on. Safe viewpoints, the loft and a drone where it applies let us see the rest, and the report records anything we couldn’t see.
Do you lift tiles to check the fixings?
No, we report on what’s visible. Most fixings sit out of sight under the coverings so we focus on what can be seen.
Do you need to get into the loft?
If it’s needed and safe to reach, yes. Inside, we look for damp, staining, gaps and sagging, as far as the space allows.
What do you check on a new roof?
We check the coverings, ridges, verges, hips, valleys and flashings plus gutters, ventilation and visible underlay at the eaves. We also look for debris left behind and damage to other parts.
Why act early in Mundaydean Bottom
Raising snags before the final payment is typically simpler. After the final payment, getting them back can take longer. Our report lists what to raise. Matching old materials, such as handmade tiles or stone slates, can take time to source. Spotting a problem early leaves room to find them.
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.

What affects the cost of new roof snagging
Prices always include VAT. What changes the price is:
- The number of roofs, including extensions and garages
- The use of thermal imaging or a drone
- The size of the roof
- How complicated the roof is, with its valleys, chimneys and parapets
Larger roofs, taller buildings and commercial roofs take longer, so the price reflects that. The price is confirmed before you book.
What to tell us when you get in touch
Before you get in touch, it’s useful to have:
- Anything about access we should know
- Any marks or damp showing indoors
- Dates you are working to, like exchange
- The style of property, from a terrace to a block
To arrange a survey, ring 07833 053749 or send us an email with the address and what you’d like to know about the roof. You’ll know the price before anything is booked.
When to book a survey in Mundaydean Bottom
Even good roofers can leave snags at the end of a job. Details at ridges, verges and flashings are easy to rush, particularly when the weather is against them.
These are some of the problems a survey can pick up:
- Cracked mortar at the ridge or hips
- Gaps at new flashings
- Debris left in gutters or valleys
- Underlay not dressed into the gutter
If you live in an older home near St Mary the Virgin, the roof’s history matters as much as its looks, and a survey brings the past repairs to light.
