New roof snagging in Pyrford Green: what you get
Our inspection covers the slates or tiles, ridges, verges, hips and valleys, along with the flashings and ventilation. At the eaves we look at how the underlay is dressed into the gutter, where it can be seen as well as the gutters. You get a photo report of what we found. We also note debris left behind and any damage to other parts of the building. We survey flashings and valleys, new flat roofs and replacement roofs, and common reasons people get in touch are cracked lower roofs or marked walls after the work and cracked mortar at the ridge or hips.
Some older homes in villages like Pyrford Green are listed or sit in a conservation area. If so, re-roofing in different materials may need consent, so check with the council before work starts. For a buyer or someone with a newly finished roof, it is worth knowing which applies, as well as what condition the roof is in. England has around 10,000 conservation areas and about 500,000 listed buildings.
The written findings come by email, ready to forward to whoever needs them. Turnaround is within 48 hours for Basic, 24–48 hours for Standard and same day for Premium.

Local roofs and buyers in Pyrford Green
Handmade clay tiles and tile-hung walls are typical of Surrey’s older houses. Horsham stone slab roofs survive on some old buildings in Surrey. Whether you are buying or checking new roofing work, knowing the materials helps make sense of what the inspection finds. Byfleet Manor, about 1.7 miles north-east, is one of the historic houses in the wider area around Pyrford Green. Period homes nearby can have lead valleys, tall chimneys and a patchwork of past repairs.
Take an older house close to St Nicholas's Church: a survey will show how the roof has been repaired before, which helps you judge what’s coming.

When to book a survey in Pyrford Green
Debris left behind is common after roof work. Offcuts and broken pieces often end up in the gutters or damage lower roofs.
A survey can pick up problems such as:
- Damage to other parts of the building
- Gutters blocked by building debris
- Gaps at new flashings
- Underlay at the eaves left exposed
Landlords with a home close to West Byfleet station may find that the roof is worth checking before you add another property to a portfolio or pay a roofer in full.
Choosing a roof surveyor
- How soon the report will arrive
- What insurance they carry
- Their drone registration, if they fly one
- Whether the inside of the roof is included
How it works
You do not need to do much on the day. Point out anything you’ve noticed, like stains, drips or loose pieces, and we’ll get on with the inspection. A typical survey takes about 1–2 hours for most houses, while a commercial roof takes nearer three to four hours. Older roofs in small places like Pyrford Green can have low, tight loft spaces, so it’s useful to know whether there’s a loft hatch and how easy it is to reach. We only go where it’s safe.
- We start by finding out what was replaced and what worries you.
- The coverings, ridges, hips and verges are checked as far as can be seen safely.
- We check valleys, flashings and gutters, and the underlay at the eaves where it’s visible.
- We look in the roof space, where there’s safe access, and around the property for debris or damage.
- We send a photo-illustrated written report of each snag.
Before the survey
- Mention any parking restrictions on your street
- Note where any stains or damp appear
- Gather any invoices or paperwork from past roof work

What you can safely check yourself
A DIY look is useful, but it is not a survey. You will not see flashings, valleys or the backs of chimneys properly from ground level, and those are details a survey looks at closely.
Fresh stains on ceilings or walls after rain are worth noting. Take a photo and write down when you saw it.
Tips from our surveys
A survey works best with a little help from you, before and after. Tips:
- Look for marks or cracks left by the work
- Send the snagging report to your roofer
- Note the end of any warranty or defects period
- Arrange the inspection before settling the final bill
Questions about the findings are welcome. With the Standard Survey there is a follow-up consultation and Premium an in-person consultation.
Tell your roofer at the start that the work will be inspected. It sets clear expectations and leaves time for snags to be fixed.
Common questions in Pyrford Green
Is my home in Pyrford Green listed or in a conservation area?
You can check whether a building is listed on Historic England’s list, and your council can tell you if it’s in a conservation area. Listed building consent is needed for changes that affect a listed building’s special interest, and conservation areas can limit changes of roofing material.
Do you cover smaller places like Pyrford Green?
Yes, Pyrford Green is on our map. A small place gets exactly the same survey as a big one.
What do you check on a new roof?
All the parts of the roof we can see safely, including ridges, verges, valleys, flashings, vents and gutters. We look in the loft where it’s safe, and we note any mess or damage left after the work.
Do I need to be at home?
Someone needs to let us in if we are looking inside or in the loft. Access is agreed with you as you book.
Will you check every nail and clip?
No. We inspect what can be seen without opening up the roof, so fixings under the coverings can’t be checked. The report says what could and couldn’t be seen.
Can you survey in bad weather?
Light rain does not typically stop a survey, and it can even help show where water is getting in. Heavy rain or strong wind can ground a drone and make the roof unsafe, so if conditions are not right we’ll arrange another day with you.
What does a new roof inspection cost?
The Basic Survey starts from £150, the Standard from £250 and the Premium from £400, all with VAT included. For a price for your roof, call 07833 053749 or send us an email.
