About our new roof snagging in Winchfield
We report on what we see with photos and plain descriptions. If there is a disagreement about the work, it is between you and your roofer or builder. Our report gives you an independent record to refer to. We do not give repair cost estimates or decide who is at fault, but it does set out clearly what we found. We survey ridges and verges, new flat roofs and flashings and valleys, and the problems we’re asked to look at most are missing or blocked roof ventilation and cracked or slipped new tiles or slates.
Somewhere as small as Winchfield, older cottages, farmhouses and converted buildings frequently sit beside a few newer homes. Village roofs can be clay tile, slate, stone or even thatch on some older buildings. Each covering has its own weak points, whether the roof is old or newly laid, and thatch is a specialist material, so we report on what can be seen. Older roofs may also have old felt underlay or none, and fixings that have done a long stint.
If any part of the new roof couldn’t be seen safely, we say so in the report. You’ll know exactly what was inspected and what wasn’t.

Your questions about new roof snagging in Winchfield
How do I find out if my home in Winchfield is listed?
The council and Historic England’s list are the places to check. Either can affect what roof work is allowed, so it’s worth checking before planning any.
Do you cover Winchfield?
Yes, Winchfield is within the area we cover. We work right across London and the South East. You can call 07833 053749 or email us with the address and a few details, and we’ll talk through which survey suits.
Do you survey roofs on blocks of flats?
Yes, if the freeholder or managing agent agrees access. We look at the parts we are given access to, and the report makes that clear.
Can you settle a dispute with my builder?
No. Our job is to report on the roof as we find it. A disagreement about the work is between you and them and our report gives you an independent record.
Is it the same as a RICS Level 2 or Level 3 survey?
No. Our survey is a roof survey, not a RICS Level 2 or Level 3 survey of the whole building. It focuses on the roof, so it sits alongside a building survey rather than replacing it.
Do you carry professional indemnity insurance?
Every survey is covered by professional indemnity and public liability insurance, and details are available on request.
Does someone need to be in?
It depends on what we need to see. Inside the building and in the loft, we need someone to let us in.

What we cannot see
Some things can’t be seen without opening up the roof, and that sets some limits:
- What’s under the new coverings
- Deciding who is at fault in a disagreement
- How the roof will perform for years to come
If you’re not sure which survey you need, ring 07833 053749 or use the contact form and we will give you a straight answer. What a survey covers and doesn’t.
What we look at
- New flat roofs
- Ridges and verges
- Flashings and valleys
- Loft conversions and dormers
- Replacement roofs
- New-build homes
How we price new roof snagging
Survey packages start from £150, including VAT. What you pay for your roof depends on:
- Whether you choose the Basic, Standard or Premium Survey
- Extra roofs, like extensions, dormers or garages
- The shape of the roof and its details
- The size of the roof
Prices quoted always include VAT, and the written report is part of the package. Our price is from £150, including VAT. Where your roof sits in the range depends on its size, height and access.
What we need to know
There’s no need for technical words. Just tell us:
- Any stains, drips or damp patches you’ve seen indoors
- Pictures from the garden or a window, if you have them
- The type of building and roof, such as pitched or flat
- What’s prompted the survey
Buyers should book once an offer has been accepted, so you have the findings in time to act on them before you exchange. Otherwise, simply ring 07833 053749 or send us an email whenever suits you.
Landlord and commercial surveys in Winchfield
Letting agents often book on a landlord’s behalf. We agree a time with the tenant beforehand.
Landlords and letting agents in Winchfield book surveys as well as homeowners. The report gives you a dated record of the new roof, with photographs, which helps you plan work between tenancies.
Before and after the survey
There’s plenty you can do without going near the roof. Here’s what helps most:
- Note the end of any warranty or defects period
- Look for debris left in gutters from ground level
- Raise snags in writing with your roofer
- Watch for drips in the roof space with care
The report gives your roofer a clear list to work through. If there’s a dispute, it is between you and your roofer or builder; we report on what we see.
Tell your roofer at the start that the work will be inspected. It sets clear expectations and leaves time for snags to be fixed.
Leave it or get it looked at?
Raising snags before the final payment is normally simpler. Once the job is paid and the roofer has moved on it can be harder to get them back. Our report lists what to raise. In a place like Winchfield, a barn or garage roof left to fail puts whatever is inside at risk. It is worth including them in a survey before a winter does the damage.
Prices start from £150, with VAT included, for a Basic Survey. The Standard Survey starts from £250 and the Premium Survey from £400, both including VAT. We confirm the price for the job before booking.
Why book with us
- Satisfaction rate of 98%
- Insured for professional indemnity and public liability
- Two decades and more of roof surveys
- More than 5,000 surveys completed

New roof snagging in Winchfield: local notes
A number of Hampshire villages keep thatched roofs on their older buildings. Slate and clay tile are the usual coverings on older South East houses, with concrete tiles on many later estates. The covering on a house you’re buying, or on a roof just finished, tells us where to look hardest. Listing and conservation areas can both shape what roof work is allowed on an older home. Your council and Historic England’s list will tell you where you stand.
If you own a rental within reach of Winchfield station, it’s worth knowing a roof’s condition before you buy it, or before you sign off new roofing work on it. If you live in an older home near Church of St Mary the Virgin, ask the seller about past roof repairs, because older roofs often have patched valleys, replaced slates and reset ridges.

- We agree what to focus on, such as a payment date or a warranty period ending.
- We inspect as far as safe access allows.
- 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.
