How new roof snagging works in Segensworth
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 including from the loft and the roof where it’s safe. You then get a written report with photos to share with your roofer. Common reasons to book are gutters blocked by building debris and flashings not properly dressed or fixed, across replacement roofs, flashings and valleys and new-build homes.
For a small place like Segensworth, the visit is planned like any other: the journey, parking and access are simply agreed in advance. Mention any outbuildings, barns or garages with roofs you’d like looked at as you book, so the visit can be planned around them. Buyers and owners of new roofs get the same approach as anywhere. Weekday and weekend visits are both available.
The report is yours to share with whoever needs it: your solicitor, the seller, your insurer, a roofer or the building’s managing agent, whichever applies.

Landlords, agents and block managers in Segensworth
Freeholders and residents’ companies use a roof report to plan and budget, putting the urgent items at the top.
Letting agents can arrange access with tenants, at a time agreed ahead of time. Surveys run on weekdays and at weekends, which helps when tenants work during the week.
Why get it checked now?
Leaving debris in gutters can cause overflows and send water down the walls. Spotting it now saves chasing damp later. In a place like Segensworth, a barn or garage roof left to fail puts whatever is inside at risk. It is worth including them in a survey before a winter does the damage.
One thing that affects the price is the package: Basic from £150, Standard from £250 or Premium from £400, all including VAT. The roof’s size, height and access matter as well.

Signs you need new roof snagging in Segensworth
Owners frequently get in touch when the finish looks uneven or a leak appears. Others want an independent check as a matter of course before signing off the job.
Typical things we are asked to look at include:
- Loose flashings at walls or chimneys
- Signs of condensation in the roof space
- Damage to other parts of the building
- Offcuts and broken tiles left behind
For an older house near a landmark such as St John, ask the seller about past roof repairs, because older roofs often have patched valleys, replaced slates and reset ridges.
Choosing a roof surveyor
- Their insurance cover
- Whether VAT is in the quoted price
- Their drone registration, if they fly one
- Will they check the loft as well as the outside?
New roof snagging around Segensworth
Segensworth lies within about 3 miles of the sea, so there’s more wind and more salt in the air than further inland. Salt corrodes metal fixings and flashings, and wind lifts loose slates, tiles and ridge pieces, so exposed details get a close look whether you are buying or signing off new work. 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.
Landlords with a home close to Swanwick station may find that it is worth knowing a roof’s condition before you buy it, or before you sign off new roofing work on it.

Segensworth questions
Does being near the coast affect roofs in Segensworth?
Yes, coastal weather is harder on roofs: there is more wind, and more salt in the air. Ridges, verges, flashings and fixings are where it normally shows, and Segensworth is within about 3 miles of the coast.
Is Segensworth within the area you cover?
Yes, Segensworth is covered. We work right across London and South East England, from towns to the smallest villages. The journey is planned ahead, so it helps to know about access.
How long will you be on site?
A visit typically takes roughly 1–2 hours for a typical new house roof, longer where the roof is large or complicated. We will give you an idea as you book.
How much is new roof snagging?
New roof snagging starts from £150, including VAT. The size of the roof and how easy it is to see affect the price. For a price, phone 07833 053749 or email us.
Do you lift tiles to check the fixings?
No, we report on what’s visible. Fixings and underlay under the slates or tiles are hidden, but we check everything we can see safely.
Which days do you carry out surveys?
Surveys can be booked for any day of the week: Monday to Friday, Saturdays and Sundays. Let us know which days suit you as you book.
How long have you been surveying roofs?
We have more than 20 years’ experience and have carried out more than 5,000 surveys across London and South East England.
How it works
We do not take risks to get a closer look. Everything that can safely be seen is inspected, and if part of the roof cannot be seen, the report says so. The survey usually takes about one to two hours for most houses, or half a day or so for a commercial building. In a hamlet or village like Segensworth, a postcode doesn’t always lead to the right gate, so a few directions, or a note of a nearby landmark, help us arrive on time. The visit itself is the same as anywhere else.
- We agree what to focus on, such as a payment date or a warranty period ending.
- We inspect as far as safe access allows.
- Each detail at ridges, verges, valleys and flashings is looked at.
- We check the gutters, lower roofs and walls for debris or damage.
- You receive a report to share with your roofer.
Before the survey
- Dig out any old roof reports or invoices
- Mention any parking restrictions on your street
- Check the loft hatch can be reached
