Flashings
Poorly finished flashings often show up on new roofs. We photograph any we find.
New roof snagging for homes and businesses in Trumps Green
Our snagging inspections cover Trumps Green and the rest of London and the South East. A visit normally takes about 1–2 hours on an ordinary house, or half a day or so for a commercial building. We inspect as far as it’s safe to see including by drone where applicable. A photo report follows. We inspect on weekdays and at weekends. Typical surveys look at underlay ending short at the eaves and debris left in gutters or valleys, across new-build homes, loft conversions and dormers and flashings and valleys.
In a village or hamlet like Trumps 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.
With the Standard Survey, you also get moisture detection, a structural check and a follow-up consultation. The Premium Survey adds thermal imaging, drone inspection where it applies, structural analysis and an in-person consultation.

Buying a home or a new roof in Trumps Green
The wider area around Trumps Green has a long history of building, with Botleys Mansion about 2.2 miles south-east. 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 Surrey have handmade clay tiles and tile-hung upper walls. Horsham stone slab roofs survive on some old buildings in Surrey. For a purchase or a newly finished roof, the materials decide which details matter most.
If your house is among the older ones in the streets near Christ Church, the roof may have had decades of patch repairs, and the survey shows where they are.

- We inspect as far as safe access allows.
- Each detail at ridges, verges, valleys and flashings is looked at.

Advice
Common questions in Trumps Green
Do you carry out roof surveys in Trumps Green?
We do. Every survey there gets the same written report with photos, and visits run on weekdays and weekends.
Is my home in Trumps Green listed or in a conservation area?
You can check whether a building is listed on Historic England’s list, and your council can tell you if it is in a conservation area. Listed building consent is needed for changes that affect a listed building’s special interest, and conservation areas can limit changes of roofing material.
Will you deal with my roofer if there’s a problem?
No. We report on what we see. Any dispute is between you and your roofer or builder, and the report gives you a clear record to refer to.
How many surveys have you done?
Over 20 years and more than 5,000 surveys, across London and South East England.
Do I need to be at home?
If the survey includes the loft or the inside of the building, someone needs to let us in. Access is agreed with you when you book.
Is snagging available for a new-build house roof?
Yes, the inspection works the same as for a re-roof. The report lists snags with photos to raise with the builder.
How do I book a survey in Trumps Green?
To book, phone 07833 053749 or email us and let us know the address and what you need to know. We will confirm the price and agree a day with you.
Leave it or get it looked at?
A clear list of snags makes the conversation with your roofer easier. It keeps things factual. Around Trumps Green, older homes frequently have old roof timbers, where water from a failed roof can cause rot if it is left.
Larger roofs, taller buildings and commercial roofs take longer, so they’re priced to match. You’ll know the figure before booking.
