About our new roof snagging in Pinner Green

We check the coverings, 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 photographs. Any debris left behind or damage to other parts is recorded too. We survey new-build homes, ridges and verges and flashings and valleys, and people most frequently book us about poorly finished verges and underlay at the eaves left exposed.

London terraces and converted houses often share a roof line, chimney stacks and gutters with the house next door, with parapet walls and party-wall upstands marking where one roof ends and the next begins. That matters for anyone buying in Pinner Green or checking a new roof there: only the parts we are given access to and can see safely are inspected. For a flat, the lease normally says who looks after the roof.

Pictures do a lot of the work in our reports, 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.

New roof snagging around Pinner Green

With Headstone Manor about 1.7 miles east, Pinner Green sits in an area with a long building history. Older roofs in the wider area can hide decades of patch repairs, so the detail matters, and a listed home or one in a conservation area may need consent for changes of material. Outer London has lots of Victorian and Edwardian terraces with slate roofs, but also a great many interwar semis, often with hipped roofs in clay or concrete tiles. Hips, bay roofs and later loft conversions are typical of those semis, if your home is one of them. For a purchase or a newly finished roof, the materials decide which details matter most.

Pinner Green is in London, so parking needs planning: let us know about parking bays, permits or a driveway as you book, as a space near the door can’t be promised. If you own a rental within reach of Hatch End station, a written report helps before buying a rental or paying for a new roof on one.

Pinner Green is about 2 miles north-east of Ruislip, in Greater London. Roofs in Pinner Green get the same thorough look as anywhere else in Greater London. Pinner Green is one of the towns and villages in Greater London where we work. London is in our area too.

How it works

We check the roof from outside and, where it’s relevant and there is safe access, from inside the loft space too. Inside, we look for staining, damp, gaps and signs of movement. All in, the survey usually takes about 1–2 hours for most houses, and about three to four hours for a commercial roof. In Pinner Green, visits are available on weekdays and at weekends. London parking is frequently by permit or pay-and-display, so it helps to know what’s near you, and to clear a path to the loft hatch. Upstairs rooms at the back are useful too, as they frequently give the best view of a rear addition.

  1. We agree what to focus on, such as a payment date or a warranty period ending.
  2. We inspect as far as safe access allows.
  3. We work through ridges, verges, valleys and flashings.
  4. We check the gutters, lower roofs and walls for debris or damage.
  5. You receive a report to share with your roofer.

Preparing for the visit

  • If you’re buying, check with the agent that we can get in
  • Make sure we can get to the back of the property
  • For a flat or shared roof, check access with the freeholder or managing agent

Advice

Tips that help

There is plenty you can do without going near the roof. Here’s what helps most:

  • Arrange the inspection before settling the final bill
  • Look for marks or cracks left by the work
  • Look for debris left in gutters from the ground
  • Agree snagging with your roofer at the start

If anything in the report isn’t clear, ask us. With the Standard Survey there’s a follow-up consultation, and the Premium Survey includes an in-person one.

File the contract, invoices and warranty papers in one place. Add the snagging report to it.

What we’re asked to look at in Pinner Green

Many people book because something doesn’t look right. Others just want an independent check before paying before signing off the job.

Things that frequently lead to a survey include:

  • Underlay at the eaves left exposed
  • Broken coverings left on a new roof
  • Vents that weren’t fitted or are covered
  • Poorly finished verges

The streets around a church such as Christian Science Church are often among the oldest in a place, and if your house is among the older ones nearby, a survey will show how the roof has been repaired before, which helps you judge what’s coming.

What to check before booking

  • What the report includes, and whether it has photographs
  • What’s outside the scope of the survey
  • What happens after the report arrives
  • How soon the report will arrive

What we look for on each type of roof

Slate roofs

Broken slates left on a new roof are a common snag. We record any we can see.

Flashings

Flashings seal the roof to walls and chimneys. We check they’re dressed, fixed and pointed where they can be seen.

What a survey costs

To price your survey, we check:

  • Any need for thermal images or a drone flight
  • Whether it’s a home or a commercial building
  • How many separate roofs there are, like extensions, dormers and garages
  • How complicated the roof is, with its valleys, chimneys and parapets

Every price we give includes VAT. New roof snagging starts from £150, including VAT. You’ll know the price for the job before booking.

Helping us price your survey

These details help when you get in touch:

  • When you need the report by
  • What made you get in touch
  • Whether there is a loft hatch, a shared roof or tricky access
  • Any stains, drips or damp patches you’ve seen indoors

You can call us seven days a week, including Saturdays and Sundays. For a price or to book, phone 07833 053749 or use the contact form.
