New roof snagging near Shootash

About our new roof snagging in Shootash

Our inspection covers the slates or tiles, ridges, verges, hips and valleys, along with the flashings and ventilation. At the eaves we look at how the underlay is dressed into the gutter, where it can be seen, and we look at the gutters too. You get a photo report of what we found. We also note debris left behind and any damage to other parts of the building. If you are worried about loose or badly finished ridge tiles and debris left in gutters or valleys, a survey will tell you what’s going on.

Being in a small place like Shootash 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.

Most points in the report come with a picture, because a photo of a cracked flashing says more than a paragraph. If something couldn’t be seen safely, the report is clear about it.

Prices for new roof snagging in Shootash

Not every roof costs the same to survey, and it comes down to:

  • Roof area
  • How tall the building is and how easy the roof is to see
  • The shape of the roof and its details
  • Whether thermal imaging or a drone is needed

The Premium Survey includes thermal imaging and drone inspection where it applies, which starts from £400, inc. VAT. We can help you choose the package that fits what you need to know.

Booking your survey

What helps most when you contact us:

  • Where any leaks, stains or damp patches show inside
  • Pictures from the garden or a window, if you have them
  • The style of property, from a terrace to a block
  • Where the property is, with the postcode

To arrange a survey, ring 07833 053749 or drop us an email with the address and what you’d like to know about the roof. You will know the price before anything is booked.

What we do, step by step

We will ask a few questions first, such as when any problem began and what work has been done before. The inspection then takes between one and two hours for a house, or half a day or so for a commercial building. Older roofs in small places like Shootash can have low, tight loft spaces, so it’s useful to know whether there’s a loft hatch and how easy it is to reach. We only go where it’s safe.

  1. You tell us what work was done and when.
  2. The new coverings and roof edges are inspected as far as can safely be seen.
  3. We check valleys, flashings, gutters and the underlay at the eaves.
  4. We check the loft where safe and look for debris or damage.
  5. Snags are listed in a written report with photos.

Getting ready for the survey

  • Agree roof access with the managing agent if it’s shared
  • Keep pets in another room
  • Have any questions written down, so nothing gets missed

Booking a survey

When you are ready to go ahead, call 07833 053749 or drop us an email. From there it is a case of choosing a package, agreeing the price and fixing a day, weekday or weekend.

Common questions in Shootash

Is Shootash within the area you cover?

We do. A small place gets exactly the same survey as a big one.

Do you carry out roof surveys in Shootash?

Yes, Shootash is one of the places we work. The survey and report are the same in Shootash as anywhere else, and visits run on weekdays and weekends.

How much is new roof snagging?

Our price is from £150, including VAT. The price depends on the size of the roof and the access. For a price, phone 07833 053749 or drop us an email.

How do I arrange new roof snagging in Shootash?

The quickest way is to phone 07833 053749 or send us an email. Give us the address and a few details about the roof, and we will take it from there. We survey on any day of the week.

Can you survey a shared roof?

Yes, as long as access is agreed. The roof of a block or converted house is frequently shared, so whoever owns or manages the building needs to agree access. We inspect only the parts we are allowed to reach.

Do you lift tiles to check the fixings?

No, we do not disturb the new coverings. Most fixings sit out of sight under the coverings, but we check everything we can see safely.

Do you test for asbestos?

No. We don’t carry out asbestos surveys or testing. We flag materials that could contain asbestos, such as cement sheets or soffits on pre-2000 buildings and suggest a specialist asbestos surveyor checks them before any work.

New roof snagging in Shootash: local notes

The wider area around Shootash has a long history of building, with Mottisfont Abbey about 3 miles north. Period homes nearby can have lead valleys, tall chimneys and a patchwork of past repairs, and any change of roofing material on a listed home needs checking with the council first. 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. Material and age explain a lot of what turns up on the day, whether the roof is old or brand new.

If you live in an older home near Church of All Saints, the roof’s history matters as much as its looks, and a survey brings the past repairs to light.

Shootash is about 3 miles west of Romsey, in Hampshire. Whether the building in Shootash is a house, a flat or a commercial unit, the roof can be surveyed on a weekday or at the weekend. Our Hampshire coverage includes Shootash. We also survey roofs in Southampton.

Before and after the survey

Nothing here needs a ladder. Our suggestions:

  • Note the end of any warranty or defects period
  • Agree snagging with your roofer at the start
  • Look for debris left in gutters from the ground
  • File all paperwork for the new roof

Once the work is finished, check the ceilings and loft after the next downpour. Raise any new signs of water with your roofer promptly.

Keep paperwork for the new roof together. The report belongs with them.

Signs you need new roof snagging in Shootash

Owners frequently get in touch when the finish looks uneven or a leak appears. Others just want an independent check before paying before signing off the job.

Most people get in touch when they’ve noticed something like this:

  • Cracked or slipped new tiles or slates
  • Untidy or loose verge details
  • Underlay ending short at the eaves
  • Vents that weren’t fitted or are covered

If you own a rental within reach of Romsey station, it is worth knowing a roof’s condition before you buy it, or before you sign off new roofing work on it.

What a good roof survey covers

What happens if roof problems are left?

Small faults on a new roof can grow. Loose details can let water through during the first winter. Finding them early means they can be dealt with quickly. In a place like Shootash, a barn or garage roof left to fail puts whatever is inside at risk. It’s worth including them in a survey before a winter does the damage.

To find out what your survey will cost, ring 07833 053749 or send us an email and let us know about the roof. The price is agreed before a date is set.

Why us?

Can I check my roof myself?

A lot can be seen from ground level. Binoculars help you spot slipped slates or tiles, gaps along the ridge and a leaning stack. Please don’t climb up for a closer look.

Keep a simple record: dates of leaks, photos from the ground and any work done on the roof. Send it with your enquiry and it will help the survey.
