New roof snagging for homes and businesses in Pitch Place
Snagging means finding the small faults and loose ends left at the end of a job. On a roof, snags are often at the edges and junctions, where the detailing is hardest. We inspect as far as can be seen safely and photograph each snag. Loose ridges, untidy verges, badly dressed flashings and leftover debris are typical snags. We survey flashings and valleys, replacement roofs and loft conversions and dormers, and people most often book us about cracked mortar at the ridge or hips and signs of condensation in the roof space.
For a small place like Pitch Place, 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 booking. Whether you are buying or checking new work, the same care goes into it. Weekday and weekend visits are both available.
You receive the findings by email, easy to pass on to a roofer, an agent or an insurer. Turnaround is within 48 hours for Basic, 24–48 hours for Standard and same day for Premium.

Can I check my roof myself?
If you have a loft with safe access, take a look inside. Take a torch and only step on boards or joists, and look for staining, damp timber or daylight coming through.
The one thing to avoid is getting up close. Slates, tiles, flat roofs and rooflights can give way. That is where a survey comes in.
Your questions about new roof snagging in Pitch Place
Will you come out to Pitch Place?
Yes. Pitch Place is within the area we cover, which takes in towns, villages and rural addresses. Our area covers London and South East England. Just mention lanes, gates or anything else about the route when you book.
How do I find out if my home in Pitch Place is listed?
Start with Historic England’s list for listing and your council for conservation areas. Either can affect what roof work is allowed, so it is worth checking before planning any.
I live in a flat. Can you survey the roof?
Yes, if the freeholder 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?
Just phone 07833 053749 or drop us an email with the address. After a few questions, we confirm the price and fix a day, weekday or weekend.
Will you deal with my roofer if there is a problem?
No. We report on what we see. Any dispute is between you and your roofer or builder, and the report gives you a clear record to refer to.
Do you look in the roof space?
If it’s needed and safe to reach, yes. Inside, we look for damp, staining, gaps and sagging.
Can you see the fixings under the tiles?
No, we report on what’s visible. Most fixings sit out of sight under the coverings so we focus on what can be seen.
What we can’t see
No survey can tell you everything, and it’s better to know them up front. Keep these in mind:
- Settling a dispute with your roofer or builder
- Whether the roof will leak in future
- Details hidden from sight
Not sure which survey suits your roof? You can phone 07833 053749 or drop us an email and we’ll tell you before you book. What a survey covers and does not.
What this survey covers
- Loft conversions and dormers
- New-build homes
- Flashings and valleys
- Replacement roofs
- New flat roofs
- Ridges and verges
What happens on the day
A survey visit follows a simple order: we hear what you’ve seen, inspect the roof from each safe vantage point, take photos as we go and record our findings for the written report. It typically takes roughly 1–2 hours at most homes, and longer for a large or complex roof. Somewhere like Pitch Place needs a little journey planning: let us know about lanes, gates and parking. On the day, we inspect what can safely be seen, inside and out.
- You let us know what work was done and when.
- We check the coverings, ridges, hips and verges from safe vantage points.
- We check valleys, flashings, gutters and the underlay at the eaves.
- We check the loft where safe and look for debris or damage.
- Snags are listed in a written report with photos.
How to prepare
- Make a note of anything you’d like us to look at
- Let us know where we can park nearby
- If it isn’t your property yet, arrange access through the agent
How to book
If you’re buying, it’s useful to book soon after your offer is accepted, so there is time to use the report before exchange. Otherwise, simply phone 07833 053749 or drop us an email whenever suits you.
Advice
Useful tips for Pitch Place property owners
Here are a few things we’d tell any owner, before and after a survey:
- Check that gutters weren’t left full of offcuts
- Agree snagging with your roofer at the start
- Keep warranty papers safe
- Note the end of any warranty or defects period
How quickly the report arrives depends on the package: within 48 hours for Basic, 24–48 hours for Standard and the same day for Premium. If a payment is due soon, choose the package that fits.
Tell your roofer at the start that the work will be inspected. Everyone then knows what to expect and time is set aside for snags.

What we look for on each type of roof
Slate roofs
On a new slate roof, we check the coursing and the details at ridges, verges and valleys as far as can be seen safely.
Valleys
Valleys carry a lot of water, so the detailing matters. The lining and the cut coverings along it are looked at.
Prices for new roof snagging in Pitch Place
We confirm the exact price before you book. This is what makes a difference:
- How complicated the roof is, with its valleys, chimneys and parapets
- The roof’s overall size
- Whether you choose the Basic, Standard or Premium Survey
- The number of roofs, including extensions and garages
A Basic Survey starts from £150, inc. VAT. Standard is from £250 and Premium from £400, both inc. VAT. We confirm the price for your roof before booking.
What we need to know
There is no need for technical words. It is enough to let us know:
- Where water is showing inside, if it is
- Photos of the roof, taken safely from ground level or a window
- The type of building and roof, such as pitched or flat
- Anything about access we should know
To arrange a survey, call 07833 053749 or drop us an email and let us know the address and what’s prompted the survey. We’ll confirm the price before you book.
Buying a home or a new roof in Pitch Place
Older buildings may be listed or sit in a conservation area. Historic England’s list shows listed buildings, and the council can say whether a street is in a conservation area. Re-roofing in different materials may need permission there. Many older homes in Surrey have handmade clay tiles and tile-hung upper walls. Some old buildings in Surrey and Sussex have Horsham stone slab roofs. Whether you’re buying or checking new roofing work, knowing the materials helps make sense of what the inspection finds.
If you own a rental within reach of Witley station, it is worth knowing a roof’s condition before you buy it, or before you sign off new roofing work on it. For an older house near a landmark such as Church of St Michael and All Angels, ask the seller about past roof repairs, because older roofs often have patched valleys, replaced slates and reset ridges.
