How new roof snagging works in Palestine
A new roof needs to breathe. Where vents have been fitted at the ridge or eaves, we check them, and check the roof space for signs of condensation. We note what we can see. Missing or blocked ventilation can lead to condensation over time, so it’s worth raising early. It all goes in the report. We survey flashings and valleys, replacement roofs and new flat roofs, and the problems we are asked to look at most are underlay not dressed into the gutter and ridge and hip tiles not properly fixed.
For a small place like Palestine, the visit is planned like any other: it just means planning the journey and access 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 any day of the week.
Most points in the report come with a picture, because a photo of a cracked flashing says more than a paragraph. If something couldn’t be seen safely, the report is clear about it.

Common questions in Palestine
How do I find out if my home in Palestine is listed?
The council and Historic England’s list are the places to check. Either can affect what roof work is allowed, so it is worth checking before planning any.
Is Palestine in the area you cover?
Yes. We survey roofs across London and the South East, and Palestine is part of that. Just call 07833 053749 or send us an email and let us know about the property, and we’ll talk through which survey suits.
Do I need to be at home?
Someone needs to let us in if we’re looking inside or in the loft. Access is agreed with you when you book.
Can you settle a dispute with my builder?
No, our role is to record the roof’s condition. Disputes are between you and whoever did the work though our report gives you the facts we saw.
How do I arrange new roof snagging in Palestine?
The quickest way is to ring 07833 053749 or email us. Give us the address and some details about the roof, and we’ll point you to the right survey. We survey on any day of the week.
How much time does a snagging visit need?
For a house, expect about 1–2 hours on site with commercial roofs nearer 3–4 hours.
Which days do you carry out surveys?
We carry out surveys on weekdays, Saturdays and Sundays. To arrange a date, call 07833 053749 or drop us an email.

How the survey works
Every roof is different; as a rough guide, the survey takes an hour or two at most homes, and more on a big or complicated roof. If you have questions on the day, just ask. Rural addresses near Palestine can be hard to find from a postcode alone, so a few directions, or a note of a nearby landmark, help us arrive on time. After that, the survey runs as it would anywhere.
- You tell us what work was done and when.
- The new coverings and roof edges are inspected as far as can be seen safely.
- 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.
Getting ready for the survey
- For flats, check roof access has been agreed
- Clear the way to the loft hatch
- Dig out any old roof reports or invoices

What a survey costs
Prices vary from roof to roof, and it comes down to:
- House, block, shop or office
- Features like valleys, chimneys, dormers and parapets
- The use of thermal imaging or a drone
- How many separate roofs there are, like extensions, dormers and garages
Simple, low roofs take less time to survey than tall or complicated ones, and the package you pick makes a difference too. We will give you the figure before anything is booked.
Booking your survey
If you can, have these to hand when you get in touch:
- Dates you’re working to, like exchange
- The style of property, from a terrace to a block
- Any stains, drips or damp patches you’ve seen indoors
- Your postcode, so we can check access and travel
When you’re ready to go ahead, phone 07833 053749 or send us an email. We will suggest a package, agree the price and find a date, weekday or weekend.
What happens if roof problems are left?
A clear list of snags makes the conversation with your roofer easier. It keeps things factual. Where a roof is exposed, as many are in small places like Palestine, driving rain gets into any weakness, and damp in older walls is slow to dry out.
New roof snagging starts from £150, including VAT. The final price depends on how big and how high the roof is, how it can safely be seen and which survey you book.
Why us?
- Satisfaction rate of 98%
- Packages from £150, including VAT

Surveys for landlords and agents in Palestine
For blocks of flats, a roof survey helps managing agents and residents’ management companies plan ahead. Recommendations are set out by urgency where it matters.
We also survey roofs for businesses and commercial landlords, including offices, shops and units. Bigger roofs take more time, and they’re priced for the size.
Tips that help
Getting the most from new roof snagging starts before we arrive and carries on afterwards. Some tips:
- Watch for drips in the roof space with care
- Keep warranty papers safe
- Check the roof before you pay in full
- Put any issues to your roofer in writing
The report gives your roofer a clear list to work through. Any disagreement about the work is between you and them; we report on what we see.
File the contract, invoices and warranty papers in one place. The report belongs with them.
Can I check my roof myself?
Fresh stains on ceilings or walls after rain are worth noting. Take a photo and write down when you saw it.
You can learn a lot from ground level. Binoculars help you spot slipped slates or tiles, gaps along the ridge and a leaning stack. Never climb onto the roof to look.
What new roof snagging looks like in Palestine
Thatch survives on some older buildings in Hampshire’s villages. Slate and clay tile are the usual coverings on older South East houses, with concrete tiles on many later estates. For a purchase or a newly finished roof, the materials decide which details matter most. Historic houses like Idmiston Manor, about 4.7 miles south-west, show how far back building in the area around Palestine goes. Period homes nearby can have lead valleys, tall chimneys and a patchwork of past repairs, and a listed home or one in a conservation area may need consent for changes of material.
If you own one of the older houses in the streets near Church of St Leonard, the roof may have had decades of patch repairs, and the survey shows where they are. Landlords with a home close to Grateley station may find that the roof is worth checking before you add another property to a portfolio or pay a roofer in full.
