New roof snagging in Send Marsh: what you get
We check the coverings, ridges, verges, hips and valleys plus flashings and roof ventilation. We check the underlay at the eaves where it is visible, and we check the gutters too. The report sets out what we found with photos. Any debris left behind or damage to other parts is recorded too. We are frequently asked to look into underlay not dressed into the gutter and broken coverings left on a new roof, on new-build homes, ridges and verges and replacement roofs.
Somewhere as small as Send Marsh, older cottages, farmhouses and converted buildings often sit beside a few newer homes. Older roofs there may have clay tiles, slate, stone or, in some places, thatch. Each covering has its own weak points, whether the roof is old or newly laid. What’s under the coverings, from old felt to the battens and nails, matters too.
Where we cannot see part of the new roof, the report says so. That way, it is clear what was covered and what wasn’t.

Can I check my roof myself?
During heavy rain, look at the gutters from the ground or a window. Overflowing water can point to a blockage or a sagging run.
Look up at the roof after a storm, from the ground: pieces of tile or slate on the ground, a gap in the ridge or a lifted flashing are all worth noting. Do not go up yourself.
What we do, step by step
Photographs are taken throughout the visit, so you can see in the report what we found and where. We take close-ups from wherever is safe, including by drone where it’s applicable and the weather allows. Most surveys take an hour or two for most homes, depending on how much new work there is to check. In a hamlet or village like Send Marsh, a postcode doesn’t always lead to the right gate, so a few directions are welcome. After that, the survey runs as it would anywhere.
- You tell us what work was done and when.
- We check the coverings, ridges, hips and verges from safe vantage points.
- We check valleys, flashings, gutters and the underlay at the eaves.
- We check the loft where safe and look for debris or damage.
- You get a photo report of each snag.
Preparing for the visit
- Tell us about any leaks, stains or damp patches you know of
- Leave a clear route to the loft
- If it is not your property yet, arrange access through the agent

Advice
New roof snagging in Send Marsh: local notes
In Surrey, older roofs are often handmade clay tile, with tile-hanging on many upper walls. Some old buildings in Surrey and Sussex have Horsham stone slab roofs. For a purchase or a newly finished roof, the materials decide which details matter most. About 2.7 miles south lies Clandon Park, a reminder of how long the area around Send Marsh has been built on. 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 Clandon station, it’s worth knowing a roof’s condition before you buy it, or before you sign off new roofing work on it. If you live in an older home near St William of York, the roof may have had decades of patch repairs, and the survey shows where they are.

Useful tips for Send Marsh property owners
From years of surveys, a few habits stand out:
- Agree snagging with your roofer at the start
- Keep the contract and invoices together
- Send the snagging report to your roofer
- Look for new stains after a downpour
Keep the report with any warranty papers from your roofer. It’s a dated record of the roof at handover.
Do not settle the final bill until the roof has been inspected, where your contract allows. It gives the roofer a reason to finish everything.
Send Marsh questions
Is Send Marsh in the area you cover?
Yes. We work right across London and the South East, and Send Marsh is part of that. Just phone 07833 053749 or drop us an email and let us know about the property, and we’ll talk through which survey suits.
Will you come out to Send Marsh?
Yes, we do. Our area covers London and South East England, from towns to the smallest villages. The journey is planned ahead, so it helps to know about access.
Is snagging available for a new-build house roof?
Yes, new-build roofs are checked in the same way as replacement roofs. The report lists snags with photos to raise with the builder.
Which parts of the roof does snagging cover?
We check the coverings, ridges, verges, hips, valleys and flashings plus gutters, ventilation and visible underlay at the eaves. We also look for debris left behind and damage to other parts.
Will you check the loft?
If the survey needs it and the loft space can be reached safely, yes. A clear path to the hatch helps.
What insurance do you have?
Our surveys are covered by professional indemnity and public liability insurance. Ask if you need details for a managing agent or building owner.
Does this replace a RICS home survey?
No. This is a survey of the roof only, so it’s not a RICS Level 2 or Level 3 survey. Many buyers have both.

If the property is let, the agent or a tenant can let us in. Surveys run seven days a week, which helps when tenants work during the week.
