Two Mile Ash New Roof Snagging
New roof snagging across Two Mile Ash, backed by more than 20 years’ experience. Every survey ends with a written report and photos.
- Offcuts and broken tiles left behind
- Tiles or slates sitting out of line
- Missing or blocked roof ventilation
How it works
Photographs are taken throughout the visit, so you can see in the report what we found and where. We take close-ups from wherever is safe, including by drone where it is applicable and the weather allows. Most surveys take about one to two hours for a typical new house roof, longer where the roof is large or complicated. A visit to Two Mile Ash is planned like any other: the time, the access and where to park are agreed beforehand. Weekday and weekend visits are both possible. Let us know about any garages, outbuildings or extensions you want included.
- We agree what to focus on, like a payment date or a warranty period ending.
- We inspect as far as safe access allows.
- We work through ridges, verges, valleys and flashings.
- Debris and damage to other parts are recorded.
- You receive a report to share with your roofer.
Before we arrive
- If it isn’t your property yet, arrange access through the agent
- Tell us about any leaks, stains or damp patches you know of
- Leave a clear route to the loft
How to book
If you are buying, it’s useful to book soon after your offer is accepted, so there’s time to use the report before exchange. For any other survey, just phone 07833 053749 or send us an email when you are ready.

About our new roof snagging in Two Mile Ash
We report on what we see, with photographs and clear descriptions. Any dispute about the work is between you and your roofer or builder. What we provide is an independent record of the roof’s condition. We don’t give repair cost estimates or decide who is at fault, but it describes what we saw in plain terms. Typical surveys look at flashings not properly dressed or fixed and offcuts and broken tiles left behind, on ridges and verges, new flat roofs and replacement roofs.
In a smaller place like Two Mile Ash, some houses face open ground, which can mean more wind and rain on the roof. Loose ridge tiles, lifted coverings and tired flashings are the kind of things that show it. For a purchase or a new roof, those exposed edges are checked closely. Wind lifts anything already loose, so a small fault on an exposed roof doesn’t stay small for long.
You can share the report with anyone who needs it: your solicitor, the seller, your insurer, a roofer or the building’s managing agent.

Tips from our surveys
Some practical points come up on survey after survey. They’re worth knowing whatever the roof:
- Look for debris left in gutters from ground level
- Tell your roofer the work will be inspected
- Book snagging before the final payment
- Look for new stains after a downpour
How quickly the report arrives depends on the package: Basic within 48 hours, Standard in 24–48 hours and Premium the same day. If a payment is due soon, choose the package that fits.
Keep an eye on the roof and ceilings in the first months. Early signs are easier to raise while the work is recent.
Signs you need new roof snagging in Two Mile Ash
Owners frequently get in touch when the finish looks uneven or a leak appears. Others want an independent check as a matter of course before the job is closed.
A survey can pick up problems such as:
- Damage to other parts of the building
- Flashings not properly dressed or fixed
- Underlay at the eaves left exposed
- Gutters blocked by building debris
If you live in an older home near Church of the Holy Cross, ask the seller about past roof repairs, because older roofs often have patched valleys, replaced slates and reset ridges.

Two Mile Ash questions
Is my home in Two Mile Ash listed or in a conservation area?
Start with Historic England’s list for listing and your council for conservation areas. Either can affect what roof work is allowed, so it is worth checking before planning any.
Do you cover smaller places like Two Mile Ash?
Yes. Two Mile Ash is within the area we cover, which takes in towns, villages and rural addresses. We survey roofs across London and the South East. Let us know about access, parking and anything unusual about getting there when you book.
What’s the best way to book?
To book, phone 07833 053749 or email us with the address, the type of property and what’s prompted the survey. We will confirm the price and find a day that suits.
Can you inspect my roof with a drone?
Yes, where applicable and safe. We fly a sub-250g drone and we’re a CAA-registered drone operator (Flyer ID and Operator ID). It’s included in the Drone Roof Survey and, where applicable, the Premium Survey.
Can you inspect the roof on a new-build home?
Yes, new-build roofs are checked in the same way as replacement roofs. The report lists snags with photos for you to pass to your builder.
Will you walk on the roof?
Only when it’s safe. Safe viewpoints, the loft space and a drone where it applies cover most of what’s needed, and anything out of sight is recorded in the report.
Can you survey in bad weather?
A survey can typically go ahead in light rain, and it can even help show where water is getting in. Strong wind or a downpour can stop drone flights and make roof access unsafe, so if conditions are not right we will arrange another day with you.
Honest limits
No survey can tell you everything, and we’d rather be clear about that before booking. Bear these in mind:
- Deciding who is at fault in a disagreement
- A promise that the roof will not leak
- Repair costs for putting snags right

Can I check my roof myself?
After strong wind, take a look from the pavement or garden: broken slates or tiles in the garden, gaps along the ridge or loose lead are signs to note. Do not go up yourself.
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, using safe viewpoints and a drone where applicable.
