How new roof snagging works in North Charford
Roof work frequently 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 is all recorded with photos. Debris left in gutters and valleys can block them and damage to lower roofs can let water through. Finding these early makes them easier to raise. If you’re worried about verge tiles or slates not secured and underlay not dressed into the gutter, a survey will tell you what’s going on, whatever the roof.
Somewhere as small as North Charford, 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, 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.
With the Standard Survey, you also get moisture detection, a structural check and a follow-up consultation. The Premium Survey adds thermal imaging, drone inspection where applicable, structural analysis and an in-person consultation.

How we price new roof snagging
What a survey costs depends on the time and equipment it needs. That comes down to:
- How complicated the roof is, with its valleys, chimneys and parapets
- Whether thermal imaging or a drone is needed
- How many separate roofs there are, such as extensions, dormers and garages
- How big the roof is

North Charford homes and their roofs
Breamore House, about 2.8 miles west, is one of the historic houses in the wider area around North Charford. Period homes nearby can have lead valleys, tall chimneys and a patchwork of past repairs, and any change of roofing material on a listed home needs checking with the council first. Thatch survives on some older buildings in Hampshire’s villages. In this part of the South East, older roofs are mostly slate or clay tile and many newer ones concrete tile. Each material has its own typical faults, which is what a buyer or the owner of a new roof needs to know about.
If you own one of the older houses in the streets near Church of St Mary, the roof may have had decades of patch repairs, and the survey shows where they are.

Leave it or get it looked at?

Questions from North Charford
Do you cover North Charford?
Yes, North Charford is one of the places we work. The survey and report are the same in North Charford as anywhere else, and visits run on weekdays and weekends.
Will you come out to North Charford?
Yes. North Charford is within the area we cover, which takes in towns, villages and rural addresses. We work right across London and the South East. Just mention lanes, gates or anything else about the route when booking.
What if it rains on the day?
Light rain does not normally stop a survey, and it can even help show where water is getting in. Strong wind or a downpour can stop drone flights and make roof access unsafe, so if conditions are not right we’ll arrange another day with you.
Do you get involved if the roofer disagrees with the report?
No, our role is to record the roof’s condition. Any dispute stays between you and your roofer or builder though our report gives you the facts we saw.
Are you insured?
We’re covered by professional indemnity and public liability insurance, for every survey we carry out.
Can you inspect my roof with a drone?
Yes, where it is applicable. 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.
Do you survey roofs on blocks of flats?
Yes. A shared roof needs access agreed first. Let us know about it as you book and we’ll explain what’s needed.
For landlords and managing agents
Surveys can also be booked by buyers’ agents acting for a client. Reports are emailed, so they’re easy to pass on.
If the property is let, the agent or a tenant can let us in. Surveys run on weekdays and at weekends, which can make access easier.
Useful tips for North Charford property owners
Getting the most from new roof snagging starts before we arrive and carries on afterwards. Tips:
- Watch for gutters overflowing in rain
- Diary the defects period end date
- Check lower roofs and walls after scaffolding comes down
- Tell your roofer the work will be inspected
Questions about the findings are welcome. The Standard Survey includes a follow-up consultation, and the Premium Survey includes an in-person one.
Put the warranty or defects period end date in your diary. Book a check well before it so there is time to raise anything.
How it works
Time on site depends on the size and shape of the roof; as a rough guide, the survey takes roughly 1–2 hours for most homes, depending on how much new work there is to check. If you have questions on the day, just ask. In a small place like North Charford, access is normally the main thing to plan. Let us know about outbuildings, past repairs and any leaks you’ve noticed. Weekday and weekend visits are available.
- We agree what to focus on, like a payment date or a warranty period ending.
- The roof is inspected from ground level, vantage points and the roof where safe.
- We work through ridges, verges, valleys and flashings.
- Debris and damage to other parts are recorded.
- We send a written report you can pass on.
Before we arrive
- Move anything stored under the loft hatch
- Keep pets out of the way during the survey
- If the roof is shared, arrange access with whoever manages the building
