Remenham Hill New Roof Snagging
A careful look at the new roof at your property in Remenham Hill, and put it all in a written report with photos.
- Debris left in gutters or valleys
- Ridge and hip tiles not properly fixed
- Missing or blocked roof ventilation
What we do, step by step
We do not take risks to get a closer look. We inspect everything that’s safely in view, and if part of the roof cannot be seen, the report says so. Most visits take between one and two hours on an ordinary house, and about three to four hours for a commercial roof. Older rural homes like those around Remenham Hill can have a main roof, lower lean-to roofs and outbuildings all joined together. Each part is looked at from wherever it can be seen safely.
- First, you let us know what the roofer did and any concerns you have.
- The new coverings, ridge, hips and verges are inspected where it’s safe to see them.
- Flashings, valleys, gutters and visible underlay at the eaves are looked at.
- We look in the loft space, where there is safe access, and around the property for debris or damage.
- We send a written report with photos of each snag.
Before the survey
- Mention any parking restrictions on your street
- If you’re buying, let the agent know when we are coming
- Have any paperwork from past roof work to hand

Advice
New roof snagging in Remenham Hill
Our snagging inspections cover Remenham Hill and the rest of London and the South East. Time on site usually takes about one to two hours for a typical new house roof, longer where the roof is large or complicated. We inspect as far as it is safe to see including by drone where it applies. You then get a written report with photographs. We inspect on weekdays and at weekends. If you’re worried about cracked or slipped new tiles or slates and cracked mortar at the ridge or hips, a survey will tell you what’s going on, whatever the roof.
For a small place like Remenham Hill, the visit is planned like any other: it just means planning the journey and access beforehand. If there are outbuildings with roofs you want checked, mention them as you book, so the visit can be planned around them. Buyers and owners of new roofs get the same approach as anywhere. Visits can be booked on weekdays and at weekends.
Most points in the report come with a picture, so you can see each defect rather than just read about it. Anything out of sight on the day is listed as such.

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, checking for stains, damp wood or chinks of daylight.
During heavy rain, look at the gutters from ground level or a window. Water spilling over the edge can be a sign of a blockage or a gutter that has dropped.
Useful tips for Remenham Hill property owners
Getting the most from new roof snagging starts before we arrive and carries on afterwards. Some tips:
- Watch for drips in the loft space with care
- Arrange the inspection before settling the final bill
- Look for debris left in gutters from the ground
- Note the end of any warranty or defects period
Questions about the findings are welcome. With the Standard Survey there is a follow-up consultation and Premium an in-person consultation.
Watch for leaks, damp or loose pieces in the first months. It is simpler to raise problems soon after the job.
Landlords, agents and block managers in Remenham Hill
An agent can book and manage the survey for a landlord. We agree a time with the tenant beforehand.
We also survey roofs for businesses and commercial landlords, including offices, shops and units. Bigger roofs take more time, and they’re priced for the size.
What we look for on each type of roof
Valleys
A valley takes water from two slopes, so it needs to be finished well. We look at the valley lining and the cut tiles or slates beside it.
Underlay and ventilation
Roof ventilation reduces the risk of condensation. We check for vents where they’ve been fitted.
Your questions about new roof snagging in Remenham Hill
Does a conservation area affect roof work in Remenham Hill?
Historic England’s list shows listed buildings, and the local council can tell you about conservation areas. If a home is listed, changes that affect its special interest need listed building consent, and in a conservation area re-roofing in different materials may need permission.
Is Remenham Hill in the area you cover?
Yes, Remenham Hill is one of the places we work. Every survey there gets the same written report with photographs.
How do I book a survey in Remenham Hill?
To arrange a survey, call 07833 053749 or use the contact form and let us know the address and what you want to find out. We’ll confirm the price and agree a day with you.
How experienced are you?
Over 5,000 surveys so far, over more than 20 years.
What insurance do you have?
Professional indemnity and public liability insurance cover our surveys. Ask if you need details for a managing agent or building owner.
Does someone need to be in?
Not necessarily. If we only need the outside, we can agree that in advance, but anything inside needs someone there to give access.
Which days do you carry out surveys?
Visits run seven days a week in the daytime. Let us know your preferred days when booking.
New roof snagging around Remenham Hill
Older buildings in west Oxfordshire often have Cotswold stone slate roofs, and some Oxfordshire villages still have thatch. Older houses in the South East frequently have slate or clay tile roofs, while many later estates have concrete tiles. The covering on a house you’re buying, or on a roof just finished, tells us where to look hardest. Greenlands, about 1.7 miles north, is one of the historic houses in the wider area around Remenham Hill. Older homes in the wider area frequently have features worth a closer look, such as lead valleys, tall stacks and roofs that have been patched over the years, and any change of roofing material on a listed home needs checking with the council first.
If you let a flat or house near Henley-On-Thames station, a survey before purchase, or before signing off a new roof, saves surprises once a tenant moves in. Take an older house close to Church of St Nicholas: the roof may have had decades of patch repairs, and the survey shows where they are.
