How a storm damage roof report works in Aaron's Hill
A storm damage roof report is an independent record of the damage to your roof after a storm. We record each area of damage, photograph it and note the likely cause. You can then give it to your insurer with your claim. Insurers decide claims on their own policy wording. We’re not loss adjusters, and we can’t tell you whether a claim will succeed. We survey chimney stacks, ridges and hips and slate and tile slopes, and people most often book us about lead lifted at abutments and damaged pots on the stack.
In a smaller place like Aaron's Hill, some roofs face open ground, where driving rain gets into any gap at a ridge, verge or flashing. A leak that only appears in certain weather frequently points to an exposed detail. It helps to know when and where the water appears. The gutters on the most exposed side can overflow too.
Where we can’t see part of the roof, the report says so. You’ll know exactly what was inspected and what wasn’t, and what we’d suggest next.

Storm damage roof reports around Aaron's Hill
In Surrey, older roofs are often handmade clay tile, with tile-hanging on many upper walls. A few of Surrey’s oldest buildings have heavy Horsham stone slab roofs. Where water gets in depends a good deal on what the roof is made of and how it’s detailed. About 2.5 miles north-east lies Loseley Park, a reminder of how long the area around Aaron's Hill has been built on. Older homes in the wider area often have features worth a closer look, such as lead valleys, tall stacks and roofs that have been patched over the years, and any change of roofing material on a listed home needs checking with the council first.
Homes near green spaces such as Phillips Memorial Park can get more leaves in their gutters in autumn, and an overflowing gutter soon means a wet wall. If you live in an older home near St Mark's Church and Community Centre, old mortar, worn lead and slipped slates are the usual suspects when water gets in.

Your questions about storm damage roof reports in Aaron's Hill
Will you come out to Aaron's Hill?
Yes, Aaron's Hill is covered. We survey roofs across London and the South East, and smaller places are part of that. Longer journeys are simply planned ahead of time.
Do you cover Aaron's Hill?
Yes. Our area covers London and South East England, and Aaron's Hill is part of that. Just ring 07833 053749 or use the contact form and let us know about the property, and we will talk through which survey suits.
Do I need to be at home?
Someone needs to let us in if we’re looking inside or in the loft. We’ll talk about access when you book.
Will my insurer pay for an old roof?
Wear and tear is not typically covered. Our report gives an honest view of what’s recent damage and what’s older wear. Your insurer decides the claim.
Should I go up on the roof to take photos?
Safely, from the ground or a window. Don’t use a ladder or go onto the roof. With binoculars, you can see a lot from the ground and we’ll inspect the rest from safe positions.
How long does the survey take?
It typically takes about 1–2 hours at a house, and longer if the damage is spread across a large roof. We’ll confirm the timing as you book.
How strong does the wind have to be for a storm claim?
There is no single figure. Many use gusts of about 55 mph, but each policy sets its own definition. Check your policy wording.
When you need someone else
Without opening up the roof, some things stay hidden, and that sets some limits:
- The outcome of a claim
- How your policy defines a storm
- Negotiating a claim settlement
If you are not sure which survey you need, phone 07833 053749 or send us an email and we will give you a straight answer before you book. What our survey covers.

What happens on the day
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 about 1–2 hours at a typical home, though large, tall or awkward roofs take more time. Being in a smaller place like Aaron's Hill does not change how the visit works: we look from ground level, from windows, from the loft and from the roof where it is safe. It is useful to show us anything you’ve already noticed.
- You let us know what happened and whether a roofer has made the roof safe.
- Inside, we look for signs of water in the loft and rooms below.
- We view the roof from safe positions.
- We record fresh damage and older defects.
- The report, with photos, is emailed to you.
Preparing for the visit
- Show us where any leaks or stains appear
- Unlock side gates and any roof access doors
- Keep pets in another room

Advice
Signs you need a storm damage roof report in Aaron's Hill
Some people book because a claim has been questioned. An independent report gives you another view of the roof. What happens next is up to the insurer.
Problems we come across often include:
- Ridge tiles that have come loose
- Slipped or missing slates or tiles
- Flat roof edges peeled back
- Cowls or aerials dislodged in the wind
If you look after a building such as St Mark and All Saints Church of England Primary, a leak through a large roof is often found some distance from where the water shows inside.
What to check before booking
- How they plan to inspect the roof safely
- Whether the price includes VAT
- Will they check the loft as well as the outside?
- Whether you get a written report with photos
