New roof snagging in Worcester Park, Greater London
New roof snagging in Worcester Park from an independent, experienced roof surveyor. Over 5,000 surveys and 20+ years behind us across London and South East England.
- Flashings not properly dressed or fixed
- Vents that weren’t fitted or are covered
- Underlay at the eaves left exposed
What we do, step by step
You don’t need to do much on the day. Point out anything you’ve noticed, such as stains, drips or loose pieces, and we’ll take it from there. The survey itself takes an hour or two for most homes, depending on how much new work there is to check. In a London area like Worcester Park, the main things to sort out are parking and access: let us know about parking, the floor the property is on, any shared entrance and loft access. On the day, the roof is looked at from ground level, from windows, from inside the roof space and from the roof where it’s safe.
- 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.
- The loft space and the rest of the property are checked for problems.
- Snags are listed in a photo-illustrated written report.
Before we arrive
- Keep pets in another room
- Make a note of anything you’d like us to look at
- Let us know about parking near the property

How new roof snagging works in Worcester Park
Our inspection covers the slates or tiles, ridges, verges, hips and valleys, along with the flashings and ventilation. We check the underlay at the eaves where it is visible as well as the gutters. The report sets out what we found with photos. We also note debris left behind and any damage to other parts of the building. We are frequently asked to look into offcuts and broken tiles left behind and damage to other parts of the building, across flashings and valleys, new flat roofs and ridges and verges.
London’s housing runs from Victorian and Edwardian terraces to interwar semis, post-war estates and new blocks of flats, so a property in Worcester Park might be any of these. Whether the roof is old or newly laid, the problem areas depend on how and when the building went up. Slate roofs, butterfly valleys, parapet gutters and flat-roofed rear additions each have their own weak points.
With the Standard Survey, you also get moisture detection, a structural check and a follow-up consultation. The Premium Survey goes further, with thermal imaging, drone inspection where applicable, structural analysis and an in-person consultation.

Worcester Park homes and their roofs
With Fitznells Manor about 1.5 miles south, Worcester Park sits in an area with a long building history. If your home is one of the older ones, expect a mix of original materials and later repairs on the roof. Alongside Victorian and Edwardian terraces, outer London has a great many interwar semis, often with hipped roofs of clay or concrete tiles. Hips, bay roofs and later loft conversions are typical of those semis, if your home is one of them. Whether you’re buying or checking new roofing work, knowing the materials helps make sense of what the inspection finds.
If you let a flat or house near Worcester Park station, a survey before purchase, or before signing off a new roof, saves surprises once a tenant moves in. For an older house near a landmark such as Parish Church of St Mary the Virgin, older patch repairs can hide behind a tidy front slope, and the survey looks past them. Controlled parking zones are common in London, so mention any permit rules for Worcester Park.

Worcester Park: your questions answered
Will parking be an issue for a roof survey in Worcester Park?
In much of London, parking needs planning: a visitor permit or a bay close to the door helps a lot.
Do you cover Worcester Park?
Yes. We survey roofs across London and the South East, and Worcester Park is part of that. Just phone 07833 053749 or send us an email and let us know about the property.
How much is new roof snagging?
New roof snagging starts from £150, including VAT. The price depends on the size of the roof and the access. To get a price, ring 07833 053749 or drop us an email.
Will you fly a drone over my roof?
Where it helps and the rules allow, yes. We hold a CAA Flyer ID and Operator ID and fly a drone under 250g, and every flight depends on the airspace and the weather.
Can you survey a shared roof?
Yes. Shared roofs just need a little more planning. Let us know about it when you book and we will explain what’s needed.
Which parts of the roof does snagging cover?
Coverings, ridges, verges, hips, valleys and flashings are all checked plus gutters, ventilation and visible underlay at the eaves. We look for leftover debris and knock-on damage too.
Can you tell me if my roof has asbestos?
No. Asbestos surveys and testing aren’t part of what we do. We flag materials that could contain asbestos, like cement sheets or soffits on pre-2000 buildings, and recommend a specialist asbestos surveyor checks them before they’re disturbed.
Rented homes, blocks and businesses
Landlords, agents and building managers in Worcester Park and across Greater London can book any of our surveys. To discuss a property or a block, phone 07833 053749 or use the contact form.
We also survey roofs for businesses and commercial landlords, including offices, shops and units. Larger roofs take longer, so they’re priced to suit.
Before and after the survey
Nothing here needs a ladder. Our suggestions:
- Watch for gutters overflowing in rain
- Arrange the inspection before settling the final bill
- Keep warranty papers safe
- Note the end of any warranty or defects period
Questions about the findings are welcome. With the Standard Survey there is a follow-up consultation, and the Premium Survey includes an in-person one.
Tell your roofer at the start that the work will be inspected. It sets clear expectations and time is set aside for snags.
Leave it or get it looked at?
A defects or warranty period does not last for ever. Checking the roof before it ends gives you time to raise anything we find. Many older London roofs have only old felt under the slates, or no underlay at all, so a slipped slate can soon mean water inside. Left alone, that means wet timbers and plaster, which is a far bigger job than the roof fault itself.
To find out what your survey will cost, phone 07833 053749 or use the contact form and tell us about the roof. The price is agreed before a date is set.

How the survey changes by roof type
Valleys
Lead or other valley linings should be laid and lapped neatly where they can be seen.
Underlay and ventilation
Vents at the ridge, eaves or in the tiles help keep the roof space dry. We check for vents where they’ve been fitted.
How we price new roof snagging
Prices vary from roof to roof, and it comes down to:
- Height and safe access
- The use of thermal imaging or a drone
- The package you choose: Basic, Standard or Premium
- The number of roofs, including extensions and garages
What a survey costs comes down to the roof itself: how big it is, how high it is, the number of separate roofs and how it can be reached and seen safely. New roof snagging starts from £150, including VAT.
What we need to know
We’ll normally ask about:
- Any deadline, such as an exchange date
- The kind of building and roof involved
- Any photos you have, taken from the ground or a window
- Whether there is a loft hatch, a shared roof or tricky access
A quick phone call is normally the easiest start: phone 07833 053749 or drop us an email and we will ask a few questions about the roof. You will have a price before anything is arranged.
