What we are asked to look at in Weddington
Owners often get in touch when the finish looks uneven or a leak appears. Others just want an independent check before paying before the job is closed.
People typically book a survey when they’ve noticed one of these:
- Offcuts and broken tiles left behind
- Underlay ending short at the eaves
- Verge tiles or slates not secured
- Cracked lower roofs or marked walls after the work
For an older house near a landmark like Church of St Nicholas, the roof may have had decades of patch repairs, and the survey shows where they are.
Choosing a roof surveyor
- Is VAT included in the price?
- What insurance they carry
- How they’ll see the roof: from ground level, the loft, the roof or by drone
- Will they check the loft as well as the outside?
About our new roof snagging in Weddington
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 do not give repair cost estimates or decide who is at fault, but it does set out clearly what we found. If you’ve noticed damage to other parts of the building and gutters blocked by building debris, we can find out what’s behind it.
Older buildings in small places like Weddington 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 is worth knowing which applies. England has around 10,000 conservation areas and about 500,000 listed buildings.
The written findings come by email, easy to pass on to a roofer, an agent or an insurer. Basic reports come within 48 hours, Standard within 24–48 hours and Premium on the day.

What you can safely check yourself
A lot can be seen from the ground. Binoculars help you spot slipped slates or tiles, gaps along the ridge and a leaning stack. Never climb onto the roof to look.
During heavy rain, look at the gutters from the ground or a window. Overflowing water can be a sign of a blockage or a gutter that has dropped.

Helping us price your survey
If you can, have these to hand when you contact us:
- What kind of property and roof it is
- Your postcode, so we can check access and travel
- What made you get in touch
- Pictures from the garden or a window, if you have them
Not sure which survey you need? It is easiest to phone 07833 053749 or email us and describe the roof and what’s worrying you. We’ll explain the options and the price.
Why act early in Weddington
Phone photos from the garden cannot show much. Our inspection looks as closely as can be done safely using a drone where it applies. Around Weddington, 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. Basic starts from £150, Standard from £250 and Premium from £400, VAT included, and we’ll tell you which fits.
Why book us in Weddington
- More than 20 years surveying roofs
- PI and public liability insurance
- Drone and thermal imaging surveys available
- Satisfaction rate of 98%
The survey, step by step
We’ll ask a few questions first, about the roof’s history, any leaks and past repairs. The inspection then takes between one and two hours for most houses, though large, tall or awkward roofs take more time. Rural addresses near Weddington can be hard to find from a postcode alone, so a few directions are welcome. The visit itself is the same as anywhere else.
- We agree what to focus on, like a payment date or a warranty period ending.
- The roof is inspected from ground level, vantage points and the roof where safe.
- Each detail at ridges, verges, valleys and flashings is looked at.
- Debris and damage to other parts are recorded.
- You receive a report to share with your roofer.
Getting ready for the survey
- Buyers: confirm access with the estate agent or seller
- For flats, check roof access has been agreed
- Have any questions written down, so nothing gets missed

Advice
FAQs for Weddington
Does being near the coast affect roofs in Weddington?
Yes, coastal weather is harder on roofs: there’s more wind, and more salt in the air. Exposed details such as ridges, verges, flashings and metal fixings are the ones to watch.
Does a conservation area affect roof work in Weddington?
For listing, use Historic England’s list; for conservation areas, ask the council. The answer matters most when a change of material is on the cards.
Does this replace a RICS home survey?
No. Our survey looks at the roof, not the whole building. For the rest of the building, a RICS home survey is a separate job.
Is snagging available for a new-build house roof?
Yes, the inspection works the same as for a re-roof. You get a photo report of any snags to raise with the builder.
What do you check on a new roof?
All the parts of the roof we can see safely, from the ridge and verges down to the eaves and gutters. The roof space is checked where there’s safe access, and we note any mess or damage left after the work.
Which days do you carry out surveys?
We survey seven days a week: Monday to Friday, Saturdays and Sundays. Let us know which days suit you as you book.
Can you see the fixings under the tiles?
No. We inspect what can be seen without opening up the roof, so fixings under the coverings can’t be checked. The report says what could and couldn’t be seen.
What this survey cannot tell you
Our survey is not a RICS Level 2 or Level 3 survey, a structural engineer’s report or an asbestos survey. It also has these limits:
- Repair costs for putting snags right
- Settling a dispute with your roofer or builder
- Nails and clips under the slates or tiles
If in doubt, ring 07833 053749 or send us an email and we will recommend the right survey before you book. The full list of what we check.

Local roofs and buyers in Weddington
Weddington is within about 5 miles of the coast, and places near the sea get more salt in the air and more wind than inland. Corroded clips and nails and lifted ridge pieces are typical of exposed roofs near the sea, which is worth knowing before you buy or pay for new work. Historic houses like Goodnestone Park, about 3.9 miles south-west, show how far back building in the area around Weddington goes. Older roofs in the wider area can hide decades of patch repairs, so the detail matters.
If you own a rental within reach of Sandwich station, the roof is worth checking before you add another property to a portfolio or pay a roofer in full.
