New roof snagging in Phoenix Green, Hampshire
New roof snagging in Phoenix Green, with over 20 years’ experience behind it. Every survey ends with a written report and photographs.
- Broken coverings left on a new roof
- Flashings not properly dressed or fixed
- Cracked mortar at the ridge or hips
Useful tips for Phoenix Green property owners
A little preparation and a few simple habits help, both for the survey and for the roof itself. Our tips:
- Check lower roofs and walls after scaffolding comes down
- Watch for gutters overflowing in rain
- Look for new stains after a downpour
- Tell your roofer the work will be inspected
Your roofer can use the report to put the snags right. Any disagreement about the work is between you and them, and our part is to report what we see.
Don’t settle the final bill until the roof has been inspected, where your contract allows. It gives the roofer a reason to finish everything.
About our new roof snagging in Phoenix Green
Our inspection covers the slates or tiles, ridges, verges, hips and valleys, along with the flashings and ventilation. At the eaves we check how the underlay is dressed into the gutter, where it can be seen, and we look at the gutters too. The report sets out what we found with photos. Any debris left behind or damage to other parts is recorded too. We survey ridges and verges, replacement roofs and new flat roofs, and people most frequently book us about loose or badly finished ridge tiles and broken coverings left on a new roof.
Some older homes in villages like Phoenix Green are listed or sit in a conservation area. That can affect what materials a new roof may use, so check with the council and Historic England’s list. Whether you’re buying or signing off new roofing, it is worth knowing where you stand, as well as what condition the roof is in. There are about 500,000 listed buildings and around 10,000 conservation areas in England.
Nothing in the report is left vague: if work is needed, the report says so clearly, along with how urgent it is.

What happens if roof problems are left?
A clear list of snags makes the conversation with your roofer easier. It keeps things factual. Around Phoenix Green, older homes often have old roof timbers, where water from a failed roof can cause rot if it’s left.
What a survey costs comes down to the roof itself: how big it is, how high it is, the number of separate roofs and how safely it can be seen. New roof snagging starts from £150, including VAT.

Phoenix Green questions
Do you carry out roof surveys in Phoenix Green?
Yes. Our area covers London and the South East, and Phoenix Green is part of that. You can ring 07833 053749 or email us with the address and some details.
Is my home in Phoenix Green listed or in a conservation area?
For listing, use Historic England’s list; for conservation areas, ask the council. It matters most if you are planning to re-roof in a different material.
Do you get involved if the roofer disagrees with the report?
No. Our job is to report on the roof as we find it. Any dispute is between you and your roofer or builder and our report gives you an independent record.
Will you check every nail and clip?
No, we report on what’s visible. Most fixings sit out of sight under the coverings, but we check everything we can see safely.
How long have you been surveying roofs?
Over 5,000 surveys so far, across 20+ years of surveying roofs, and 98% of clients are satisfied.
What if it rains on the day?
Some surveys depend on the weather more than others. Drones cannot fly safely in strong wind or a downpour, and thermal imaging works best after a sunny day, with a dry roof and little wind. We will rearrange with you if the weather is not right.
Is this an asbestos survey?
No. We do not carry out asbestos surveys or testing. If we see materials that could contain asbestos, such as cement roof sheets or soffits on buildings from before 2000, we flag them, and recommend a specialist asbestos surveyor checks them before they’re disturbed.
New roof snagging around Phoenix Green
An older home may be listed, or stand in a conservation area. Historic England’s list shows listed buildings, and the council can say whether a street is in a conservation area. In either case, a change of roofing material may need consent. Some Hampshire villages still have thatched roofs. 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.
For landlords with property near Winchfield station, a survey before purchase, or before signing off a new roof, saves surprises once a tenant moves in. If you own one of the older houses in the streets near St Mary's Church, ask the seller about past roof repairs, because older roofs frequently have patched valleys, replaced slates and reset ridges.
