Book new roof snagging in Stonestreet Green

How new roof snagging works in Stonestreet Green

The best time for snagging is before the final payment, while the roofer is still on hand. If you’ve already paid, check before any defects or warranty period runs out. That gives you time to raise any snags. Our report gives you a clear, photographed list of snags to send to your roofer before the deadline. If you’re worried about offcuts and broken tiles left behind and cracked lower roofs or marked walls after the work, we can find out what’s behind it, whatever the roof.

For a small place like Stonestreet Green, the visit is planned like any other: 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 seven days a week.

Most points in the report come with a picture, so you can see each defect rather than just read about it. Anything out of sight on the day is listed as such.

Stonestreet Green homes and their roofs

The wider area around Stonestreet Green has a long history of building, with Westenhanger Castle about 3.7 miles east. On older houses around here, roofs often carry the marks of earlier repairs, from replaced slates to new lead, and the council can say whether a home is in a conservation area. 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. Oast houses and timber-framed Wealden hall houses are part of the county’s older buildings too. Each material has its own typical faults, which is what a buyer or the owner of a new roof needs to know about.

For an older house near a landmark such as Church of St Martin, ask the seller about past roof repairs, because older roofs often have patched valleys, replaced slates and reset ridges.

What we cannot see

Our survey is not a RICS Level 2 or Level 3 survey, a structural engineer’s report or an asbestos survey. Other limits to bear in mind:

  • Areas out of view from every safe vantage point
  • Legal advice on your contract
  • What’s under the new coverings

If in doubt, phone 07833 053749 or email us and we’ll point you to the right survey. What a survey covers and doesn’t.

What this survey covers

  • Loft conversions and dormers
  • Flashings and valleys
  • New flat roofs
  • New-build homes
  • Ridges and verges
  • Replacement roofs

Why it’s worth a survey now in Stonestreet Green

Leaving debris in gutters can cause overflows and send water down the walls. Finding it now is simpler than tracing damp later. Around Stonestreet Green, older homes frequently have old roof timbers, where water from a failed roof can cause rot if it’s left.

Prices start from £150, including VAT. The final price depends on the size and height of the roof, access and the package you choose.

What to expect from a roof survey

Surveys for landlords and agents in Stonestreet Green

A roof problem in a let property affects your tenants as well as the building. A survey helps you spot issues early and plan the work around your tenants.

Businesses and commercial landlords can book us too, from shops and offices to industrial units. Larger roofs take longer, so they’re priced to suit.

Stonestreet Green: your questions answered

Is Stonestreet Green in the area you cover?

Yes, Stonestreet Green is one of the places we work. Every survey there gets the same written report with photographs, and visits run on weekdays and weekends.

Is Stonestreet Green within the area you cover?

Yes, Stonestreet Green is on our map. A small place gets exactly the same survey as a big one, with the route planned beforehand.

How long does new roof snagging take?

For a house, expect about 1–2 hours on site, and longer for large or complex roofs.

Do you use drones?

Yes, where it’s applicable. Whether we can fly on the day depends on the weather and the airspace rules, including flight restriction zones near airports. We’re a CAA-registered drone operator.

What do you check on a new roof?

Coverings, ridges, verges, hips, valleys and flashings are all checked plus gutters, ventilation and visible underlay at the eaves. We look for leftover debris and knock-on damage too.

Is this an asbestos survey?

No. Our report may flag materials that could contain asbestos, but confirming it is a job for a specialist asbestos surveyor. It may be present in buildings built or refurbished before 2000.

Do you lift tiles to check the fixings?

No, we report on what’s visible. Most fixings sit out of sight under the coverings so we focus on what can be seen.

Checking the roof from ground level

It helps to keep a record: dates of leaks, photos from ground level and any work done on the roof. Share it with us when booking and it will help the survey.

Fresh stains on ceilings or walls after rain are worth noting. Take a photo and write down when you saw it, which helps when we look at the roof.

What happens on the day

Before we start, tell us why you’ve booked: a purchase, a leak, a storm, new work or simply peace of mind. It helps us focus on what matters most to you. The visit typically takes an hour or two for a typical new house roof, longer where the roof is large or complicated. Rural addresses near Stonestreet Green can be hard to find from a postcode alone, so a few directions are welcome. After that, the survey runs as it would anywhere.

  1. We agree what to focus on, such as a payment date or a warranty period ending.
  2. We inspect as far as safe access allows.
  3. Each detail at ridges, verges, valleys and flashings is looked at.
  4. We check the gutters, lower roofs and walls for debris or damage.
  5. We send a written report you can pass on.

Before we arrive

  • Make a note of anything you’d like us to look at
  • Have any paperwork from past roof work to hand
  • If the roof is shared, arrange access with whoever manages the building
