We take a careful look at the roof at your property in Adisham, with photos and a written report.
- Gutters pulled loose in the wind
- Lifted or missing ridge and hip tiles

Leave it or get it looked at?
If a roofer needs to make the roof safe, take photos first if you can do so safely from ground level. Those photos show the damage as it was. Outbuildings and barns around Adisham are easy to forget, but a failed roof there can spoil what’s stored inside. It is worth including them in a survey before a winter does the damage.
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. Storm damage roof report starts from £150, including VAT.
What you get with us
- Visits on any day of the week
- An independent view of the roof
- Plain-English reports with photos
- Packages from £150, inc. VAT

Storm damage roof report in Adisham: what you get
Storms tend to find the weak points on a roof. Slates and tiles slip or blow off, ridge and hip tiles lift, flashings pull away and flat roof coverings can tear. Falling branches can cause damage too. We record the damage on your roof and photograph each part. Where we also see signs of older wear, the report records that too. Common reasons to book are damage from fallen branches or debris and flat roof edges peeled back, on flat roofs, chimney stacks and flashings.
Being in a small place like Adisham makes no difference to how a leak or storm damage is looked at: the journey and access are just planned ahead of time. It’s useful to know where the water appears, in what weather, and what you’ve seen outside, plus any earlier repairs. Photographs of the stain and of the roof from outside are helpful too.
You receive the findings by email, easy to pass on to a roofer, an agent or an insurer. Basic reports come within 48 hours, Standard within 24–48 hours and Premium on the day.

Storm damage roof reports in Adisham: local notes
Across Kent, older roofs are often handmade clay or peg tiles, and tile-hanging on upper walls is a familiar sight. The county’s older buildings also include oast houses and timber-framed Wealden hall houses. Knowing the roof type helps narrow down where water may be getting in. Historic houses like Goodnestone Park, about 1.6 miles east, show how far back building in the area around Adisham goes. On older houses around here, roofs frequently carry the marks of earlier repairs, from replaced slates to new lead.
Take a building like Adisham Church of England Primary School: a leak through a large roof is often found some distance from where the water shows inside. If you live in an older home near Church of the Holy Innocents, old mortar, worn lead and slipped slates are the usual suspects when water gets in.

Common questions in Adisham
Will you come out to Adisham?
We do. Villages and rural addresses get the same survey as a town house, with the route planned beforehand.
Is Adisham in the area you cover?
We do. The survey and report are the same in Adisham as anywhere else, and visits run on weekdays and weekends.
Can I check the roof after a storm?
Safely, from the ground or a window. Never climb onto a roof after a storm. With binoculars, you can see a lot from the ground, and we will record the rest.
Do you use drones?
Yes, where it applies and safe. We’re a CAA-registered drone operator (Flyer ID and Operator ID), flying a sub-250g drone. It is included in the Drone Roof Survey and, where it applies, the Premium Survey.
Do I have to be there for the survey?
Not always. An outside-only look can be arranged beforehand, but the loft and any rooms with damp need someone to let us in.
Which days do you carry out surveys?
Visits run seven days a week in the daytime. Let us know your preferred days as you book.
How long does the survey take?
It typically takes about one to two hours at a house, and longer if the damage is spread across a large roof. The written report follows by email, on the timescale of your package.
Different roofs, different checks
Flat roof coverings
On flat roofs, storms can lift edges and tear membranes. We record any damage and where it is.
Ridge and hip tiles
Worn mortar under ridge tiles can let them lift in a storm. Our report says whether it looks freshly damaged or worn over time.
What affects the cost of storm damage roof reports
We confirm the exact price before booking. This is what makes a difference:
- How complicated the roof is, with its valleys, chimneys and parapets
- Building height and the viewpoints available
- Which survey package you book
- How big the roof is
A small, low roof with good viewpoints takes less time than a tall, complicated one, and the package matters as well. We will give you the figure before anything is booked.
Booking your survey
A little information up front helps. Please include:
- Photos of the roof, taken safely from ground level or a window
- What kind of property and roof it is
- What made you get in touch
- When you need the report by
Photos help, if you have them. Pictures from the ground or a window are fine, and please do not climb up for a closer look. To send them or to book, call 07833 053749 or send us an email.
Common roof problems in Adisham
Some people book because a claim has been questioned. You get an independent record of what the roof shows. We cannot say whether the decision will change.
These are some of the problems a survey can pick up:
- Broken or displaced guttering
- Lead lifted at abutments
- Ridge tiles that have come loose
- Holes or cracks caused by debris
Landlords with a home close to Adisham station may find that tracing a leak quickly matters when a tenant is living with it.
What to check before booking
- When you’ll get the report
- How much experience they have with roofs like yours
- Is there a chance to talk the report through?
- What they will not be able to tell you
What we do, step by step
After the inspection, everything we found is written up as a written report with photos. On timing, most surveys take between one and two hours for most homes, depending on how much of the roof was hit. Older roofs in small places like Adisham can have low, tight loft spaces, so it is useful to know whether there is a loft hatch and how easy it is to reach. We only go where it is safe.
- First we go through when the storm hit and what you’ve noticed.
- We check the roof from wherever it’s safe.
- We record and photograph the damage.
- The report notes whether the damage fits a storm, older wear or both.
- We send you the report by email for your insurer.
Getting ready for the survey
- Keep pets out of the way during the survey
- Leave side gates unlocked
- Note where any stains or damp appear
Booking a survey
Most bookings start with a short call: call 07833 053749 or use the contact form and we’ll ask a few questions about the roof. The price is agreed before a date is set.
