About our new roof snagging in North Gorley
Householders book snagging after a re-roof or roof replacement and some new-build owners want their roof looked at. We inspect each roof as far as safe access allows, from the ground, vantage points, the loft space and the roof where safe. You then get a written report with photos to share with your roofer. If you’ve noticed vents that weren’t fitted or are covered and gutters or fascias damaged during the job, we can find out what’s behind it, whatever the roof.
Somewhere as small as North Gorley, older cottages, farmhouses and converted buildings frequently 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. What’s under the coverings, from old felt to the battens and nails, matters too.
After the visit, you get a written report with photographs, sent by email. It sets out the condition of the new roof, any defects and our written recommendations.

Landlord and commercial surveys in North Gorley
Where a roof is shared: we need access agreed with whoever owns or manages the building. Mention it when you contact us and we will plan the survey around it.
For a freeholder or residents’ company, a roof report is a sound basis for a maintenance plan, putting the urgent items at the top.
The survey, step by step
We look at the roof from outside and, where it’s relevant and there’s safe access, from inside the loft space too. In the loft, the signs we look for are staining, damp, daylight and sagging. The whole visit usually takes an hour or two on an ordinary house, rising to roughly 3–4 hours on a commercial building. Cottages and farmhouses around North Gorley often have roofs at several levels, with lean-tos and outbuildings attached. We work round each section in turn, from the safest viewpoints.
- We start with what the roofer did and when they finished.
- The new coverings and roof edges are inspected as far as can safely be seen.
- Valleys, flashings, gutters and visible underlay at the eaves are looked at.
- We check the loft where safe and look for debris or damage.
- You get a photo report of each snag.
How to prepare
- Make sure pets are kept safely away
- Make sure the loft hatch can be reached
- Leave side gates unlocked
Arrange a survey
Photos help, if you have them. Pictures from ground level or a window are fine; never climb up to get a better view. To send them or to book, call 07833 053749 or send us an email.

Buying a home or a new roof in North Gorley
Historic houses such as Breamore House, about 4.5 miles north, show how far back building in the area around North Gorley goes. On older houses around here, roofs often carry the marks of earlier repairs, from replaced slates to new lead, and a listed home or one in a conservation area may need consent for changes of material. A number of Hampshire villages keep thatched roofs on their older buildings. Older houses in the South East often have slate or clay tile roofs, while many later estates have concrete tiles. Material and age explain a lot of what turns up on the day, whether the roof is old or brand new.
The streets around a church such as Church of the Holy Ascension are often among the oldest in a place, and if yours is one of the older homes nearby, the roof’s history matters as much as its looks, and a survey brings the past repairs to light.

Questions from North Gorley
Is my home in North Gorley listed or in a conservation area?
For listing, use Historic England’s list; for conservation areas, ask the council. It matters most if you’re planning to re-roof in a different material.
Do you cover smaller places like North Gorley?
Yes, North Gorley is on our map. Villages and rural addresses get the same survey as a town house, with the route planned beforehand.
Will you go up on the roof?
Only if it’s safe. We inspect everything that’s safely in view: from ground level, from windows, from inside the roof space, from the roof where it’s safe and by drone where applicable. The report says if anything couldn’t be seen.
Can you survey a shared roof?
Yes, if the building owner or managing agent agrees access. On a shared roof we can only inspect the parts we’re allowed to reach.
What’s the best way to book?
The quickest way is to call 07833 053749 or email us. Tell us the address and a little about the roof, and we will point you to the right survey. We survey on any day of the week.
Do you get involved if the roofer disagrees with the report?
No. We report on what we see. A disagreement about the work is between you and them and our report gives you an independent record.
Can you inspect the roof on a new-build home?
Yes. We inspect the roof as far as it can safely be seen and photograph what we find. It is worth booking before your builder’s defects period ends.
DIY checks: what’s safe
Keep a simple record: when leaks happen, ground-level photos and any past roof work. Send it with your enquiry and it will help the survey.
A lot can be seen from ground level. Binoculars help you spot slipped slates or tiles, gaps along the ridge and a leaning stack. Please don’t climb up for a closer look.
Why get it checked now?
You may not see a fault until it causes damage. Checking early gives you a record of the roof’s condition at handover. Where a roof is exposed, as many are in small places like North Gorley, driving rain gets into any weakness, and older walls, once damp, take a long time to dry.
For a price for your roof in North Gorley, ring 07833 053749 or drop us an email and let us know about the roof. We’ll confirm the figure before booking.
