New roof snagging in Wadwick: what you get
Snagging means finding the small faults and loose ends left at the end of a job. Roof snags frequently show at ridges, verges, valleys and flashings where the work is most fiddly. We check everything we can see safely and photograph each snag. Loose ridges, untidy verges, badly dressed flashings and leftover debris are typical snags. We survey loft conversions and dormers, flashings and valleys and new flat roofs, and the problems we are asked to look at most are flashings not properly dressed or fixed and damage to other parts of the building.
Older buildings in small places like Wadwick may be listed or in a conservation area. That can affect what materials a new roof may use, so check with the council and Historic England’s list. For a buyer or someone with a newly finished roof, it’s worth knowing which applies. England has around 10,000 conservation areas and about 500,000 listed buildings.
If any part of the new roof couldn’t be seen safely, we say so in the report. You will know exactly what was inspected and what wasn’t.

Can I check my roof myself?
Keep a simple record: dates of leaks, photos from the ground and any work done on the roof. Send it with your enquiry, as it helps us focus the survey.
The one thing to avoid is getting up close. Roofs are fragile and slippery. That part is for a survey, using safe viewpoints and a drone where applicable.
Wadwick homes and their roofs
Some Hampshire villages still have thatched roofs. Older houses in the South East frequently have slate or clay tile roofs, while many later estates have concrete tiles. Whether you’re buying or checking new roofing work, knowing the materials helps make sense of what the inspection finds. About 3.8 miles north lies Highclere Castle, a reminder of how long the area around Wadwick has been built on. Older roofs in the wider area can hide decades of patch repairs, so the detail matters, and the council can say whether a home is in a conservation area.

How we price new roof snagging
Every roof is different, so prices are confirmed before booking. These are the things that affect it:
- Features like valleys, chimneys, dormers and parapets
- Any need for thermal images or a drone flight
- The size of the roof
- Whether you choose the Basic, Standard or Premium Survey
Every price we give includes VAT, and the report is not charged as an extra. Prices start from £150, including VAT. Where your roof sits in the range depends on its size, height and access.
Getting in touch
These details help when you contact us:
- Whether there’s a loft hatch, a shared roof or tricky access
- Pictures from the garden or a window, if you have them
- The reason for the survey, like buying, a leak or storm damage
- The property’s address and postcode
Photos help, if you have them. Pictures from the ground or a window are fine, and please don’t climb up for a closer look. To get started, call 07833 053749 or drop us an email.
Useful tips for Wadwick property owners
A little preparation and a few simple habits help, both for the survey and for the roof itself. Some pointers:
- Check the roof before you pay in full
- Look for new stains after a downpour
- Send the snagging report to your roofer
- Look for marks or cracks left by the work
Keep the report with any warranty papers from your roofer. It is a dated record of the roof at handover.
Keep paperwork for the new roof together. Add the snagging report to it.
Why it is worth a survey now in Wadwick
It is easier to get snags sorted while money is still owed. After the final payment, getting them back can take longer. Our report lists what to raise. Older cottages and farmhouses around Wadwick can have roof timbers that have been there a very long time, and water through a failed covering can rot timber if it is left.
A Basic Survey starts from £150, inc. VAT. The Standard Survey starts from £250 and the Premium Survey from £400, both including VAT. You will know the price for your roof before booking.

How it works
We don’t take risks to get a closer look. We inspect whatever is safely visible, and if part of the roof cannot be seen, the report says so. Most visits take about one to two hours for a typical new house roof, longer where the roof is large or complicated. In a hamlet or village like Wadwick, a postcode does not always lead to the right gate, so a few directions are welcome. The visit itself is the same as anywhere else.
- You tell us what work was done and when.
- The new coverings and roof edges are inspected as far as can safely be seen.
- Valleys, flashings, gutters and visible underlay at the eaves are looked at.
- We check the loft where safe and look for debris or damage.
- Snags are listed in a report with photos.
Before the survey
- Check we can get to the back of the property
- Point out any leaks or damp patches
- Have any questions written down, so nothing gets missed
Booking a survey

Common questions in Wadwick
Is Wadwick in the area you cover?

Will you come out to Wadwick?
Yes, we do. We survey roofs across London and South East England, from towns to the smallest villages. Longer journeys are simply planned in advance.
Is this an asbestos survey?
No. We do not carry out asbestos surveys or testing. We flag materials that could contain asbestos, such as cement sheets or soffits on pre-2000 buildings.
Will you fly a drone over my roof?
Where it’s applicable and safe, yes. We fly a sub-250g drone and we’re a CAA-registered drone operator (Flyer ID and Operator ID). It is included in the Drone Roof Survey and, where applicable, the Premium Survey.
Is snagging available for a new-build house roof?
Yes. We check new-build roofs from safe vantage points and the roof space and record any snags. Book before the defects period runs out if you can.
When should I book new roof snagging?
Once the roofer says the job is done, ideally before you pay in full. That leaves time to raise anything we find.
Will you check the loft?
Where it’s relevant to the survey and there is safe access, yes. A clear path to the hatch helps, and if the loft can’t be reached safely, the report says so.
