About our new roof snagging in Stalisfield Green
Our inspection covers the slates or tiles, ridges, verges, hips and valleys plus flashings and roof ventilation. We check the underlay at the eaves where it’s visible as well as the gutters. The report sets out what we found with photographs. We also note debris left behind and any damage to other parts of the building. We survey loft conversions and dormers, flashings and valleys and replacement roofs, and the problems we’re asked to look at most are poorly finished verges and flashings not properly dressed or fixed.
In a village or hamlet like Stalisfield Green, homes are often older cottages and farmhouses alongside a few newer houses. Older roofs there may have clay tiles, slate, stone or, in some places, thatch. Whether you’re buying or have just had a roof replaced, each material has its own checks, and thatch is a specialist material, so we report on what can be seen. What’s under the coverings, from old felt to the battens and nails, matters too.
You receive the findings by email, easy to pass on to a roofer, an agent or an insurer. Turnaround is within 48 hours for Basic, 24–48 hours for Standard and same day for Premium.

How the survey changes by roof type
Ridges, hips and verges
Loose ridge or hip tiles are a common snag. We photograph any we find.
Underlay and ventilation
Vents at the ridge, eaves or in the tiles help keep the loft space dry. We check for vents where they’ve been fitted.

New roof snagging around Stalisfield Green
With Belmont House and Gardens about 2.7 miles north-east, Stalisfield Green sits in an area with a long building history. Older homes in the wider area frequently have features worth a closer look, such as lead valleys, tall stacks and roofs that have been patched over the years, and the council can say whether a home is in a conservation area. Across Kent, older roofs are often handmade clay or peg tiles, and tile-hanging on upper walls is a familiar sight. You’ll also find oast houses and timber-framed Wealden hall houses among the county’s older buildings. Material and age explain a lot of what turns up on the day, whether the roof is old or brand new.
Landlords with a home close to Charing station may find that the roof is worth checking before you add another property to a portfolio or pay a roofer in full.

Stalisfield Green questions
Do you cover Stalisfield Green?
Yes, Stalisfield Green is within the area we cover. We cover the whole of London and South East England. Just ring 07833 053749 or email us and let us know about the property.
Does a conservation area affect roof work in Stalisfield Green?
Your council is the best source, with Historic England’s list for listed buildings. A change of roofing material may need consent in either case, and councils can also use Article 4 directions.
Can you see the fixings under the tiles?
No. We inspect what can be seen without opening up the roof, so fixings under the coverings can’t be checked. The report says what could and couldn’t be seen.
Do I have to be there for the survey?
Not necessarily. If we only need the outside, we can agree that beforehand, but the loft and any rooms with damp need someone to let us in.
Do you look in the roof space?
Typically, if there is one and it can be reached safely. The loft space can show things the outside can’t, such as damp timbers, staining or daylight.
How do I arrange new roof snagging in Stalisfield Green?
Just phone 07833 053749 or send us an email with the address. We will ask a few questions, confirm the price and agree a date.
Will you deal with my roofer if there’s a problem?
No. We report on what we see. A disagreement about the work is between you and them and our report gives you an independent record.
Leave it or get it looked at?
Leaving debris in gutters can cause overflows and send water down the walls. Finding it now is simpler than tracing damp later. Around Stalisfield Green, older homes often have old roof timbers, where water from a failed roof can cause rot if it’s left.
Every price we give includes VAT. New roof snagging starts from £150, including VAT. You will know the exact price before you book.

Signs you need new roof snagging in Stalisfield Green
Scaffolding and materials can damage other parts of a building. A snagging check looks around the property as well as at the roof.
Signs worth acting on include:
- Missing or blocked roof ventilation
- Loose or badly finished ridge tiles
- Gutters blocked by building debris
- Underlay ending short at the eaves
The streets around a church like Church of St Mary are often among the oldest in a place, and if your home is one of the older ones nearby, older patch repairs can hide behind a tidy front slope, and the survey looks past them.
What to check before booking
- Whether they hold professional indemnity and public liability insurance
- Whether the roof space is looked at, where there is one
- Will the report include photos?
- Their drone registration, if they fly one
The survey, step by step
It helps to start with what’s prompted the survey: a purchase, a leak, a storm, new work or simply peace of mind. That way we can focus on what matters to you. Most visits take roughly 1–2 hours for a typical new house roof, longer where the roof is large or complicated. Somewhere like Stalisfield Green needs a little journey planning: tell us about narrow lanes, gates, long drives and where we can park. The roof is looked at from ground level, from windows, from the loft where there is safe access and from the roof where it is safe.
- First, we note any deadlines and concerns.
- The roof is inspected from the ground, vantage points and the roof where safe.
- We work through ridges, verges, valleys and flashings.
- We check the gutters, lower roofs and walls for debris or damage.
- We send a written report you can pass on.
Preparing for the visit
- Let us know where we can park nearby
- Check the loft hatch can be reached
- For flats, check roof access has been agreed
Arrange a survey
Buyers should book once an offer has been accepted, so there’s time to use the report before exchange. For any other survey, just ring 07833 053749 or drop us an email when you’re ready.
Advice
Before and after the survey
Nothing here needs a ladder. Our suggestions:
- Check before your warranty period ends
- Keep the contract and invoices together
- Check the roof before you pay in full
- Watch for gutters overflowing in rain
After the snags are sorted, watch the roof in the next heavy rain. Raise any new signs of water with your roofer promptly.
Tell your roofer at the start that the work will be inspected. It sets clear expectations and time is set aside for snags.
