What affects the cost of new roof snagging

- Which survey package you book
- How complicated the roof is, with its valleys, chimneys and parapets
- The height of the building and how the roof can safely be seen
- Roof area
Simple, low roofs take less time to survey than tall or complicated ones, and the package you pick makes a difference too. The price is always agreed first.

How new roof snagging works in Rotherwick
Homeowners book snagging after a re-roof or roof replacement and some new-build owners want their roof looked at. Whatever the roof, we inspect as far as it can be seen safely, from the ground, vantage points, the roof space and the roof where safe. You then get a written report with photos to share with your roofer. We’re often asked to look into missing or blocked roof ventilation and underlay at the eaves left exposed, on new flat roofs, flashings and valleys and replacement roofs.
Being in a small place like Rotherwick makes no difference to the inspection itself: it just means planning the journey and access beforehand. If there are outbuildings with roofs you want checked, mention them as you book. Buyers and owners of new roofs get the same approach as anywhere. Visits can be booked on any day of the week.
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.

What we do, step by step
We photograph the roof as we go, so you can see in the report what we found and where. We take close-ups from wherever is safe. A typical visit takes about one to two hours for most homes, depending on how much new work there is to check. In a small place like Rotherwick, access is normally the main thing to plan. Let us know about outbuildings, past repairs and any leaks you’ve noticed. Weekday and weekend visits are available.
- We start by finding out what was replaced and what worries you.
- The coverings, ridges, hips and verges are checked as far as can safely be seen.
- We check valleys, flashings and gutters, and the underlay at the eaves where it is visible.
- Where it’s safe, we check the loft, then look for debris or damage left behind.
- We send a written report with photos of each snag.
Preparing for the visit
- Clear the way to the loft hatch
- Have any questions written down, so nothing gets missed
- Tell us about parking before the day

Signs you need new roof snagging in Rotherwick
Scaffolding and materials can damage other parts of a building. We look for knock-on damage, not just the new roof.
Signs worth acting on include:
- Gutters or fascias damaged during the job
- Tiles or slates sitting out of line
- Loose or badly finished ridge tiles
- Poorly finished verges
The streets around a church such as Rotherwick Church are often among the oldest in a place, and if yours is one of the older homes nearby, the roof’s history matters as much as its looks, and a survey brings the past repairs to light.

Common questions in Rotherwick
Will you come out to Rotherwick?
Yes. Rotherwick is within the area we cover, which takes in towns, villages and rural addresses. We cover the whole of London and South East England. Just mention lanes, gates or anything else about the route when booking.
Do you carry out roof surveys in Rotherwick?
Yes. We work right across London and South East England, and Rotherwick is part of that. Just phone 07833 053749 or send us an email and let us know about the property.
Do you carry professional indemnity insurance?
Every survey is covered by professional indemnity and public liability insurance, and we can provide details if a managing agent needs them.
Will you check every nail and clip?
No, we do not disturb the new coverings. Most fixings sit out of sight under the coverings so we focus on what can be seen.
I live in a flat. Can you survey the roof?
Yes, once access has been agreed. The roof of a block or converted house is frequently shared, so we need permission from the building owner or managing agent. We can only inspect what we are given access to.
Can you survey at the weekend?
We survey seven days a week: Monday to Friday, Saturdays and Sundays. Tell us which days suit you when booking.
How long will you be on site?
A visit typically takes an hour or two for a typical new house roof, longer where the roof is large or complicated. You will know roughly how long when we arrange it.
Should I look at the roof myself first?
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.
Inside, the loft is a good place to look, with care. Use a torch and stay on the joists or boards, checking for stains, damp wood or chinks of daylight.
New roof snagging around Rotherwick
Some Hampshire villages still have thatched roofs. Slate and clay tile are the usual coverings on older South East houses, with concrete tiles on many later estates. Each material has its own typical faults, which is what a buyer or the owner of a new roof needs to know about. Stratfield Saye House, about 3.2 miles north, is one of the historic houses in the wider area around Rotherwick. If your home is one of the older ones, expect a mix of original materials and later repairs on the roof, and any change of roofing material on a listed home needs checking with the council first.
If you let a flat or house near Hook station, a survey before purchase, or before signing off a new roof, saves surprises once a tenant moves in.

Useful tips for Rotherwick property owners
There’s plenty you can do without going near the roof. What helps most:
- Tell your roofer the work will be inspected
- Look for new stains after a downpour
- Check the roof before you pay in full
- Put any issues to your roofer in writing
How quickly the report arrives depends on the package: Basic within 48 hours, Standard in 24–48 hours and Premium the same day. That is worth bearing in mind if a payment date is close.
Do not settle the final bill until the roof has been inspected if your contract allows it. It gives the roofer a reason to finish everything.
Why it is worth a survey now in Rotherwick
Some faults only show when water gets in. Checking early gives you a record of the roof’s condition at handover. Matching old materials, such as handmade tiles or stone slates, can take time to source. Spotting a problem early leaves room to find them.
To find out what your survey will cost, call 07833 053749 or email us and tell us about the roof. We will confirm the figure before booking.
