How new roof snagging works in Sheet
Our snagging inspections cover Sheet and the rest of London and the South East. A visit usually takes between one and 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, and by drone where it’s applicable. You then get a report with photos. We inspect on weekdays and at weekends. We survey loft conversions and dormers, new flat roofs and new-build homes, and people most frequently book us about cracked lower roofs or marked walls after the work and offcuts and broken tiles left behind.
Older buildings in small places like Sheet 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’re buying or signing off new roofing, it’s worth knowing where you stand. England has around 10,000 conservation areas and about 500,000 listed buildings.
Where we can’t see part of the new roof, the report says so. That way, it is clear what was covered and what wasn’t, and what we’d suggest next.

Checking the roof from the ground
A DIY look is useful, but it isn’t a survey. You won’t see flashings, valleys or the backs of chimneys properly from ground level.
It’s useful to keep a record: when leaks happen, ground-level photos and any past roof work. Send it with your enquiry, as it helps us focus the survey.
Tips that help
A few practical points come up again and again on our surveys. They’re worth knowing whatever the roof:
- Keep warranty papers safe
- Walk round the house to look for knock-on damage
- Let your roofer know an inspection is planned
- Book snagging before the final payment
If anything in the report isn’t clear, ask us. The Standard Survey includes a follow-up consultation, and the Premium Survey includes an in-person one.
Don’t settle the final bill until the roof has been inspected if your contract allows it. It gives the roofer a reason to finish everything.
What new roof snagging looks like in Sheet
About 4.5 miles south lies Uppark, a reminder of how long the area around Sheet has been built on. On older houses around here, roofs often carry the marks of earlier repairs, from replaced slates to new lead. Thatch survives on some older buildings in Hampshire’s villages. Slate and clay tile are the usual coverings on older South East houses, with concrete tiles on many later estates. Whether you’re buying or checking new roofing work, knowing the materials helps make sense of what the inspection finds.
If you own a rental within reach of Petersfield station, a survey before purchase, or before signing off a new roof, saves surprises once a tenant moves in.

For landlords and managing agents
Roof problems in a rented home affect tenants as well as the building. A survey helps you spot issues early and plan the work.
If you own several properties, surveys can be booked for more than one address. To discuss a number of properties, ring 07833 053749 or drop us an email.
Common roof problems in Sheet
Flashings at walls and chimneys frequently need attention. Loose or badly fitted flashings can let water in at the first heavy rain.
These are some of the problems a survey can pick up:
- Damage to other parts of the building
- Verge tiles or slates not secured
- Loose or badly finished ridge tiles
- Loose flashings at walls or chimneys
If you live in an older home near Church of St Mary Magdalene, older patch repairs can hide behind a tidy front slope, and the survey looks past them.
Choosing a roof surveyor
- What happens after the report arrives

FAQs for Sheet
Is Sheet in the area you cover?
We do. The survey and report are the same in Sheet as anywhere else, and visits run on weekdays and weekends.
Is Sheet within the area you cover?
Yes. Sheet is within the area we cover, which takes in towns, villages and rural addresses. Our area covers London and South East England. Just mention lanes, gates or anything else about the route when you book.
Do I need to be at home?
If the survey includes the loft or the inside of the building, someone needs to let us in. We’ll talk about access as you book.
Are you insured?
Professional indemnity and public liability insurance cover our surveys. If you need details for a managing agent or a building owner, just ask.
Is this an asbestos survey?
No. We can flag materials that might contain asbestos, but confirming it is a job for a specialist asbestos surveyor. It may be present in buildings built or refurbished before 2000.
Which parts of the roof does snagging cover?
Coverings, ridges, verges, hips, valleys and flashings are all checked, along with ventilation, gutters and the underlay at the eaves. We look for leftover debris and knock-on damage too.
Can you survey at the weekend?
Surveys can be booked for any day of the week: Monday to Friday, Saturdays and Sundays. Just tell us the days that suit you.
What happens on the day
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, including by drone where it is applicable and the weather allows. Most surveys take between one and two hours at most homes, and about three to four hours for a commercial roof. In a small place like Sheet, access is typically the main thing to plan. Let us know about outbuildings, past repairs and any leaks you’ve noticed. Visits can be on weekdays, Saturdays or Sundays.
- We start with what the roofer did and when they finished.
- We check the coverings, ridges, hips and verges from safe vantage points.
- Valleys, flashings, gutters and visible underlay at the eaves are checked.
- The roof space and the rest of the property are checked for problems.
- Snags are listed in a photo-illustrated written report.
Preparing for the visit
- Dig out any old roof reports or invoices
- Move anything stored under the loft hatch
- Let us know where we can park nearby
