About our new roof snagging in Quidhampton
Building work can leave a mess behind. Offcuts, broken tiles and debris left in gutters or on lower roofs are noted, and for damage to other parts of the building. It is all recorded with photos. Debris left in gutters and valleys can block them and damage to lower roofs can let water through. It is easier to raise them while the job is fresh. If you are worried about ridge and hip tiles not properly fixed and signs of condensation in the roof space, we can find out what’s behind it, whatever the roof.
Older buildings in small places like Quidhampton may be listed or in a conservation area. If so, re-roofing in different materials may need consent, so check with the council before work starts. Whether you are buying or signing off new roofing, it’s 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.
How fast the report arrives depends on the package: the Basic Survey within 48 hours, the Standard Survey in 24 to 48 hours and the Premium Survey on the same day.

Your questions about new roof snagging in Quidhampton
Is Quidhampton within the area you cover?
Yes. Quidhampton is within the area we cover, which takes in towns, villages and rural addresses. We survey roofs across London and the South East. Just mention lanes, gates or anything else about the route when you book.
Do you carry out roof surveys in Quidhampton?
Yes. We survey roofs across London and South East England, and Quidhampton is part of that. You can ring 07833 053749 or send us an email with the address and a few details.
Do you test for asbestos?
No. We do not carry out asbestos surveys or testing. If we see materials that could contain asbestos, like cement roof sheets or soffits on buildings from before 2000, we flag them.
What insurance do you have?
Our cover is professional indemnity plus public liability, and we can provide details if a managing agent needs them.
Can you inspect my roof with a drone?
Where it helps and the rules allow, yes. We hold a CAA Flyer ID and Operator ID and fly a drone under 250g, and the airspace and weather are checked before every flight.
How do I book a survey in Quidhampton?
To arrange a survey, phone 07833 053749 or send us an email and tell us the address and what you want to find out. We’ll confirm the price and agree a day with you.
Is it the same as a RICS Level 2 or Level 3 survey?
No. We are experienced roof surveyors, and our survey covers the roof rather than the whole building. For the rest of the building, a RICS home survey is a separate job.
Roof by roof
Underlay and ventilation
We look in the loft space, where there is safe access, at the underlay and ventilation.
Slate roofs
Broken slates left on a new roof are a common snag. We record any we can see.
What happens on the day
Where it is relevant and can be reached safely, the roof space is checked as well as the outside. Inside, we look for staining, damp, gaps and signs of movement, as far as the space allows. The whole visit usually takes an hour or two for most houses, and about three to four hours for a commercial roof. Rural addresses near Quidhampton can be hard to find from a postcode alone, so a few directions are welcome. After that, the survey runs as it would anywhere.
- First, we note any deadlines and concerns.
- The roof is inspected from ground level, vantage points and the roof where safe.
- Each detail at ridges, verges, valleys and flashings is looked at.
- We check the gutters, lower roofs and walls for debris or damage.
- We send a written report you can pass on.
Before we arrive
- Let us know about parking near the property
- Keep pets inside or away from the areas we’re looking at
- Move anything stored under the loft hatch
Book a survey
If you are buying, it helps to book soon after your offer is accepted, so there’s time to use the report before exchange. Otherwise, simply call 07833 053749 or email us whenever suits you.
Advice

- What’s under the new coverings
- Parts of the roof we cannot see safely

What we check

What happens if roof problems are left?
Phone photos from the garden cannot show much. We get as close a view as safe access allows using a drone where it applies. Around Quidhampton, older homes often have old roof timbers, where water from a failed roof can cause rot if it’s left.
There are three survey packages: Basic from £150, Standard from £250 and Premium from £400, with VAT included. The price for your roof depends on its size, access and what you’d like to know.

Can I check my roof myself?
What you cannot do safely is get up close. Slates, tiles, flat roofs and rooflights can give way, and a fall can be serious. That part is for a survey, using safe viewpoints and a drone where applicable.
It’s useful to keep a record: dates of leaks, photos from ground level and any work done on the roof. Send it with your enquiry and it will help the survey.
What affects the cost of new roof snagging
Survey packages start from £150, with VAT included. What you pay for your roof depends on:
- The height of the building and how the roof can safely be seen
- Commercial roofs and larger buildings
- Any need for thermal images or a drone flight
- The number of roofs, including extensions and garages
Our price is from £150, including VAT. Basic starts from £150, Standard from £250 and Premium from £400, VAT included.
Booking your survey
Some details help us recommend the right survey and price. When you get in touch, it helps to mention:
- Your postcode, so we can check access and travel
- The style of property, from a terrace to a block
- Where water is showing inside, if it is
- What made you get in touch
To book a survey, ring 07833 053749 or send us an email with the address and what you’d like to know about the roof. We will confirm the price before booking.
Buying a home or a new roof in Quidhampton
A number of Hampshire villages keep thatched roofs on their older buildings. Across the South East, older homes tend to have slate or clay tiles, and many later ones concrete tiles. Each material has its own typical faults, which is what a buyer or the owner of a new roof needs to know about. Before planning roof work on an older home, find out whether it is listed or in a conservation area. Changes that affect a listed building’s special interest need listed building consent, and councils can also use Article 4 directions to control changes in conservation areas.
If you own a rental within reach of Overton station, a roof report gives you a clear picture before you buy or settle up with a roofer. If you live in an older home near Church of St Mary, ask the seller about past roof repairs, because older roofs often have patched valleys, replaced slates and reset ridges.
