New roof snagging in Temple Valley: what you get
Replacing a roof costs a lot, so it is worth having it checked before the final payment. We look for snags, faults and anything left unfinished on the new roof and around it. You get a report with photos that you can pass to your roofer. We’re independent of the roofer who did the job. If you’ve noticed damage to other parts of the building and verge tiles or slates not secured, we can find out what’s behind it, whatever the roof.
For a small place like Temple Valley, 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 when you book, so the visit can be planned around them. Buyers and owners of new roofs get the same approach as anywhere. Visits can be booked seven days a week.
The report records the new roof as we found it on the day. It’s useful right away, and a good reference for later.

Common questions in Temple Valley
Do you carry out roof surveys in Temple Valley?
Yes, Temple Valley is one of the places we work. Every survey there gets the same written report with photos, and visits run on weekdays and weekends.
Do you cover smaller places like Temple Valley?

Can you survey at the weekend?
We carry out surveys on any day of the week. To find a day that suits you, call 07833 053749 or send us an email.
How do I book a survey in Temple Valley?
To arrange a survey, call 07833 053749 or use the contact form with the address, the type of property and what’s prompted the survey. We will confirm the price and find a day that suits.
Does someone need to be in?
Someone needs to let us in if we’re looking inside or in the loft. Access is agreed with you as you book.
What does a new roof inspection include?
All the parts of the roof we can see safely, including ridges, verges, valleys, flashings, vents and gutters. The loft space is looked at where there is safe access and check for damage left by the job.
What does a new roof inspection cost?
Our packages start from £150 for Basic, £250 for Standard and £400 for Premium, including VAT. For a price for your roof, ring 07833 053749 or drop us an email.
Checking the roof from ground level
During heavy rain, look at the gutters from ground level or a window. Overflowing water can be a sign of a blockage or a gutter that has dropped.
What you cannot do safely is get up close. Roofs are fragile and slippery, and falls from height are serious. That part is for a survey.
Tips that help
From years of surveys, a few habits stand out as worth the effort:
- Note the end of any warranty or defects period
- Walk round the house to look for knock-on damage
- Tell your roofer the work will be inspected
- Check ceilings and the loft after heavy rain
Questions about the findings are welcome. The Standard Survey includes a follow-up consultation, and the Premium Survey includes an in-person one.
Tell your roofer at the start that the work will be inspected. It sets clear expectations and leaves time for snags to be fixed.
What new roof snagging looks like in Temple Valley
The wider area around Temple Valley has a long history of building, with Hinton Ampner House about 4.2 miles east. 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. Some Hampshire villages still have thatched roofs. Across the South East, older homes tend to have slate or clay tiles, and many later ones concrete tiles. Each material has its own typical faults, which is what a buyer or the owner of a new roof needs to know about.

How the survey changes by roof type
Underlay and ventilation
Vents at the ridge, eaves or in the tiles help keep the roof space dry. We check for vents where they’ve been fitted.
Clay and concrete tiles
Tiles that don’t sit flat can let rain in. We note any that look out of place.
What we do, step by step
Every visit follows the same pattern: we listen to what’s been worrying you, look at the roof from every safe viewpoint, photograph what we find and make notes for the report. It normally takes an hour or two for most homes, depending on how much new work there is to check. In a small place like Temple Valley, access is usually 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.
- First, we note any deadlines and concerns.
- We inspect as far as safe access allows.
- Each detail at ridges, verges, valleys and flashings is looked at.
