How new roof snagging works in Stonebridge Green
People book us after having a roof replaced or re-covered 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 report with photos to share with your roofer. If you’ve noticed gutters or fascias damaged during the job and ridge and hip tiles not properly fixed, a survey will tell you what’s going on, whatever the roof.
For a small place like Stonebridge Green, the visit is planned like any other: the journey, parking and access are simply agreed ahead of time. Mention any outbuildings, barns or garages with roofs you’d like looked at when booking, 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.
Where we cannot see part of the new roof, the report says so. You’ll know exactly what was inspected and what wasn’t, and what we’d suggest next.

How the survey changes by roof type

Flashings around chimney stacks are a common weak point and are looked at closely.
Ridges, hips and verges
The top and edges of a roof are the most exposed. Bedding, dry-fix pieces and fixings are checked where visible.
FAQs for Stonebridge Green
Is Stonebridge Green within the area you cover?
Yes. Stonebridge Green is within the area we cover, which takes in towns, villages and rural addresses. We cover the whole of London and South East England. Let us know about access, parking and anything unusual about getting there when you book.
Is my home in Stonebridge Green listed or in a conservation area?
We cannot confirm that for you, but Historic England’s list and your council can. A change of roofing material may need consent in either case.
What insurance do you have?
Our surveys are covered by professional indemnity and public liability insurance. If you need details for a managing agent or a building owner, just ask.
How do I book a survey in Stonebridge Green?
It’s easiest to call 07833 053749 or email us. Tell us the address and a little about the roof. We survey on weekdays and at weekends.
What do you check on a new roof?
Coverings, ridges, verges, hips, valleys and flashings are all checked, along with ventilation, gutters and the underlay at the eaves. We also look for debris left behind and damage to other parts.
Can you survey a shared roof?
Yes, once whoever controls the roof agrees access. We look at the parts we’re given access to, and the report makes that clear.
Can you see the fixings under the tiles?
No. We don’t open up the new roof so hidden fixings aren’t visible to us. We note what couldn’t be seen.
Common roof problems in Stonebridge Green
Most homeowners can’t get a good look at their new roof. From the pavement, many faults are invisible before you pay.
Here are some of the things we see often:
- Loose flashings at walls or chimneys
- Gutters blocked by building debris
- Damage to other parts of the building
- Ridge and hip tiles not properly fixed
If you own a rental within reach of Charing station, the roof is worth checking before you add another property to a portfolio or pay a roofer in full.

Buying a home or a new roof in Stonebridge Green
About 5 miles south-east lies Godinton House, a reminder of how long the area around Stonebridge Green has been built on. On older houses around here, roofs often carry the marks of earlier repairs, from replaced slates to new lead, and a listed home or one in a conservation area may need consent for changes of material. Many older homes in Kent have handmade clay tiles, including Kent peg tiles held by pegs through two holes, and tile-hanging on their upper walls. You will also find oast houses and timber-framed Wealden hall houses among the county’s older buildings. For a purchase or a newly finished roof, the materials decide which details matter most.
If you own one of the older houses in the streets near Church of St James, ask the seller about past roof repairs, because older roofs frequently have patched valleys, replaced slates and reset ridges.

How the survey works
We look at the roof from outside and, where it is relevant and there’s safe access, from inside the loft space too. Inside, we look for staining, damp, gaps and signs of movement, as far as the space allows. All in, the survey normally takes about 1–2 hours for most homes, depending on how much new work there is to check. Cottages and farmhouses around Stonebridge Green often have roofs at several levels, with lean-tos and outbuildings attached. We work round each section in turn, from the safest viewpoints, and anything we cannot see is noted.
- First, you tell us what the roofer did and any concerns you have.
- The coverings, ridges, hips and verges are checked as far as can be seen safely.
- Valleys, flashings, gutters and the underlay at the eaves are looked at.
- The loft space is checked where safe, along with any mess or damage left after the work.
- You get a photo report listing the snags we found.
How to prepare
- Dig out any old roof reports or invoices
- Let us know about any leaks, stains or damp patches you know of
