Why get it checked now?
Specific, photographed snags are easier to discuss than a vague worry. It keeps the focus on what can be seen. Where a roof is exposed, as many are in small places like Nup End Green, driving rain gets into any weakness, and older walls, once damp, take a long time to dry.
The cost of a survey depends on the roof: how big it is, how high it is, the number of separate roofs and how safely it can be seen. Prices start from £150, including VAT.

New roof snagging for homes and businesses in Nup End Green
Ideally, book snagging before you settle the final invoice while the roofer can still come back easily. If that is passed, it’s worth checking before a defects or warranty period ends. That leaves time to raise what we find. Our report gives you a clear, photographed list of snags to send to your roofer in good time. We survey new-build homes, loft conversions and dormers and new flat roofs, and the problems we’re asked to look at most are ridge and hip tiles not properly fixed and flashings not properly dressed or fixed.
For a small place like Nup End Green, the visit is planned like any other: the journey, parking and access are simply agreed beforehand. Mention any outbuildings, barns or garages with roofs you’d like looked at when you book, so the visit can be planned around them. Buyers and owners of new roofs get the same approach as anywhere. Visits can be booked on weekdays and at weekends.
After the visit, you get a written report with photographs, sent by email. It explains the condition of the new roof, the defects we found and what we recommend.

Before and after the survey
Some practical points come up on survey after survey. They apply to most roofs:
- Walk round the house to look for knock-on damage
- Keep warranty papers safe
- Check ceilings and the loft after heavy rain
- Raise snags in writing with your roofer
The report lists each snag with photos and written recommendations. Pass it on to your roofer or builder.
Put the warranty or defects period end date in your diary. Book a check well before it so there’s time to raise anything.
How it works
We will ask a few questions first, about the roof’s history, any leaks and past repairs. Then the inspection itself takes between one and two hours for a typical new house roof, longer where the roof is large or complicated. Around Nup End Green, older homes can have small or awkward roof spaces, so it is useful to know whether there is a loft hatch and how easy it is to reach. Only areas that can be reached safely are inspected.
- First, you tell us what the roofer did and any concerns you have.
- The coverings, ridges, hips and verges are checked as far as can safely be seen.
- Flashings, valleys, gutters and visible underlay at the eaves are checked.
- We look in the roof space, where there’s safe access, and around the property for debris or damage.
- You get a photo report listing the snags we found.
How to prepare
- Find any records of previous roof work
- Move anything stored under the loft hatch
- Point out any leaks or damp patches

DIY checks: what’s safe
If you have a loft with safe access, take a look inside. Use a torch and stay on the joists or boards, checking for stains, damp wood or chinks of daylight.
After heavy rain, check ceilings and the tops of walls for new stains. Photograph them and note the date, which helps when we check the roof.
