Signs you need new roof snagging in West Tisted
Owners often get in touch when the finish looks uneven or a leak appears. Others just want an independent check before paying before signing off the job.
It is worth booking a survey if you’ve seen:
- Signs of condensation in the loft space
- Offcuts and broken tiles left behind
- Untidy or loose verge details
- Gaps at new flashings
For an older house near a landmark such as Church of St Mary Magdalene, a survey will show how the roof has been repaired before, which helps you judge what’s coming.
What to check before booking
- Whether the roof space is looked at, where there is one
- If they fly a drone, whether they hold a CAA Flyer ID and Operator ID
- What they won’t be able to tell you
- Which parts of the roof they’ll actually see
How new roof snagging works in West Tisted
A new roof is a big spend, so it makes sense to check the work before you pay the final bill. Our new roof snagging inspection looks for faults and unfinished work on the new roof and around it. You get a report with photographs to share with your roofer. It is an independent check, separate from the roofer who did the work. We’re often asked to look into verge tiles or slates not secured and gaps at new flashings, across new-build homes, new flat roofs and flashings and valleys.
For a small place like West Tisted, the visit is planned like any other: the journey, parking and access are simply agreed ahead of time. Mention any outbuildings, barns or garages with roofs you’d like looked at when booking, so the visit can be planned around them. Whether you are buying or checking new work, the same care goes into it. Weekday and weekend visits are both available.
How fast the report arrives depends on the package: the Basic Survey within 48 hours, the Standard Survey in 24 to 48 hours and the Premium Survey on the same day.

New roof snagging in West Tisted: local notes
A number of Hampshire villages keep thatched roofs on their older buildings. Older houses in the South East frequently have slate or clay tile roofs, while many later estates have 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. Historic houses such as Hinton Ampner House, about 3.6 miles west, show how far back building in the area around West Tisted goes. Older homes in the wider area frequently have features worth a closer look, such as lead valleys, tall stacks and roofs that have been patched over the years.

Rented homes, blocks and businesses
Surveys can also be booked by buyers’ agents acting for a client. The report is emailed, so it can go straight to your client, photos included.
If the property is let, the agent or a tenant can let us in. We survey on weekdays and at weekends, which helps when tenants work during the week.
How it works
Expect us to ask a few questions before we start, about the roof’s history, any leaks and past repairs. Then the inspection itself takes roughly 1–2 hours for a typical new house roof, longer where the roof is large or complicated. Cottages and farmhouses around West Tisted often have roofs at several levels, with lean-tos and outbuildings attached. We work round each section in turn, from the safest viewpoints.
- We agree what to focus on, such as a payment date or a warranty period ending.
- The roof is inspected from the ground, vantage points and the roof where safe.
- We work through ridges, verges, valleys and flashings.
- We check the gutters, lower roofs and walls for debris or damage.
- You receive a report to share with your roofer.
Preparing for the visit
- Keep pets out of the way during the survey
- Let us know about parking near the property
- Agree roof access with the managing agent if it’s shared

How much is new roof snagging?

Will you walk on the roof?
Only when it’s safe. Some roofs are too steep or fragile to walk on safely. We use safe viewpoints, the loft space and a drone where it applies, and the report records anything we couldn’t see.
Before and after the survey
You don’t need to be a roofer to help. What helps most:
- Watch for drips in the loft space with care
- File all paperwork for the new roof
- Check lower roofs and walls after scaffolding comes down
- Diary the defects period end date
Keep the report with any warranty papers from your roofer. It is a dated record of the roof at handover.
Keep an eye on the roof and ceilings in the first months. Early signs are easier to raise while the work is recent.
What this survey cannot tell you
Every survey has limits, and it is better to know them up front. Bear these in mind:
- Estimates of what fixes will cost
- Legal advice on your contract
- Parts of the roof we cannot see safely
