How the survey changes by roof type

Ridges, hips and verges

Loose ridge or hip tiles are a common snag. They’re recorded with photos.

Valleys

We check valley linings for splits and poor laps where they can be seen.

How new roof snagging works in Winchfield Hurst

We check the coverings, ridges, verges, hips and valleys, along with the flashings and ventilation. We check the underlay at the eaves where it’s visible, and we check the gutters too. The report sets out what we found with photos. We also note debris left behind and any damage to other parts of the building. If you are worried about untidy or loose verge details and signs of condensation in the roof space, a survey will tell you what’s going on, on ridges and verges, replacement roofs and new-build homes alike.

Being in a small place like Winchfield Hurst makes no difference to the inspection itself: it just means planning the journey and access beforehand. 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’re buying or checking new work, the same care goes into it. Visits can be booked on weekdays, Saturdays and Sundays.

Pictures do a lot of the work in our reports, so you can see each defect rather than just read about it. If something couldn’t be seen safely, the report is clear about it.

Can I check my roof myself?

Keep a simple record: when leaks happen, ground-level photos and any past roof work. Share it with us as you book and it will help the survey.

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. Leave anything above ground level to a survey.

Why act early in Winchfield Hurst

Defects and warranty periods have an end date. Checking the roof before it ends gives you time to raise anything we find. In a place like Winchfield Hurst, 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.

Bigger, taller and commercial roofs take more time to survey, so the price reflects that. You will know the figure before booking.

What new roof snagging looks like in Winchfield Hurst

An older home may be listed, or stand in a conservation area. Historic England’s list shows listed buildings, and the council can say whether a street is in a conservation area. In either case, a change of roofing material may need consent. Some Hampshire villages still have thatched roofs. Older houses in the South East often 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.

For landlords with property near Winchfield station, it is worth knowing a roof’s condition before you buy it, or before you sign off new roofing work on it. Take an older house close to 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.

Winchfield Hurst questions

Is my home in Winchfield Hurst listed or in a conservation area?

Historic England’s list shows listed buildings, and the local council can tell you about conservation areas. Listed building consent is needed for changes that affect a listed building’s special interest, and conservation areas can limit changes of roofing material.

Is Winchfield Hurst in the area you cover?

Yes. We cover the whole of London and South East England, and Winchfield Hurst is part of that. You can ring 07833 053749 or drop us an email with the address and a few details.

What does a new roof inspection include?

Coverings, ridges, verges, hips, valleys and flashings are all checked, along with ventilation, gutters and the underlay at the eaves. We also look for debris left behind and damage to other parts.

How many surveys have you done?

We have been surveying roofs for over 20 years and have carried out more than 5,000 surveys.

Does someone need to be in?

That depends on the survey. For inside areas and the loft space, someone has to give us access, while outside access can be discussed when booking.

Will you check every nail and clip?

No, we report on what’s visible. Most fixings sit out of sight under the coverings so we focus on what can be seen.

Prices start from £150, including VAT. The price depends on the size of the roof and the access. For a price, phone 07833 053749 or use the contact form.

How the survey works

Time on site depends on the size and shape of the roof; as a rough guide, the survey takes about 1–2 hours for a typical new house roof, longer where the roof is large or complicated. If you have questions on the day, just ask. Rural addresses near Winchfield Hurst can be hard to find from a postcode alone, so a few directions are welcome. The visit itself is the same as anywhere else.

  1. We start by finding out what was replaced and what worries you.
  2. The new coverings, ridge, hips and verges are inspected where it’s safe to see them.
  3. Flashings, valleys, gutters and visible underlay at the eaves are checked.
  4. Where it’s safe, we check the loft, then look for debris or damage left behind.
  5. We send a photo-illustrated written report of each snag.

Getting ready for the survey

  • Tell us about any leaks, stains or damp patches you know of
  • Have keys ready for side gates, garages or roof access doors
  • Have any questions written down, so nothing gets missed

Book a survey

Once you know what you need, ring 07833 053749 or drop us an email. From there it is a case of choosing a package, agreeing the price and fixing a day, weekday or weekend.
