About our storm damage roof report in Andwell
The Financial Ombudsman looks at three things when it considers a storm damage complaint: were there storm conditions on or around the date, is the damage consistent with a storm, and was the storm the main cause. We record what the roof shows about the damage and its likely cause. You or your insurer can check the weather for the date. Typical surveys look at slates and tiles blown off the roof and lead lifted at abutments, on flashings, gutters and fascias and slate and tile slopes.
Somewhere as small as Andwell, older roofs have often been repaired many times. A new leak may be fresh damage or the latest sign of long-term wear, which matters if you are thinking of an insurance claim. We check what can be seen safely and set out what we find. Damp in old walls and timbers is slow to dry, so the sooner the cause is found the better.
The report is written in plain words, so you don’t need to be a roofer to follow it. Photographs show what each point refers to, with the urgent items made clear.

Wind, rain and roofs in Andwell
The wider area around Andwell has a long history of building, with The Vyne about 4.2 miles north-west. Older homes in the wider area often have features worth a closer look, like lead valleys, tall stacks and roofs that have been patched over the years. A number of Hampshire villages keep thatched roofs on their older buildings. Across the South East, older homes tend to have slate or clay tiles, and many later ones concrete tiles. The covering and its details give the first clues when tracing where water is coming from.
For landlords with property near Hook station, finding the cause of a leak fast keeps a tenant’s home dry and the work focused. The streets around a church such as St Swithun's church are frequently among the oldest in a place, and if your house is among the older ones nearby, water on an older roof tends to find its way in at the lead, the valleys or the chimney.

The survey, step by step
We do not take risks to get a closer look. Everything that can be seen safely is inspected, and anything we cannot see is noted in the report. Most visits take an hour or two for most homes, depending on how much of the roof was hit. In a hamlet or village like Andwell, a postcode doesn’t always lead to the right gate, so a few directions, or a note of a nearby landmark, help us arrive on time. The visit itself is the same as anywhere else.
- We start with what you’ve seen and any temporary repairs.
- 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.
- You receive the written report with photos.
Before the survey
- If you are buying, let the agent know when we are coming
- Keep pets out of the way during the survey
- Show us where any leaks or stains appear

Why act early in Andwell
If a roofer needs to make the roof safe, take photos first if you can do so safely from the ground. That keeps a record of how it looked. In a place like Andwell, a barn or garage roof left to fail puts whatever is inside at risk. A quick look before winter can save a lot.
Bigger, taller and commercial roofs take more time to survey, so they’re priced to match. The price is confirmed before you book.
Why book us in Andwell
- Over 5,000 surveys carried out
- Weekday and weekend surveys
- An independent look at the roof

Common questions in Andwell
Will you come out to Andwell?
Yes, Andwell is on our map. A small place gets exactly the same survey as a big one.
Does a conservation area affect roof work in Andwell?
Check Historic England’s online list first, then ask the council about conservation areas and any Article 4 direction. It matters most if you’re planning to re-roof in a different material.
Do I need to be at home?
If the survey includes the loft or the inside of the building, someone needs to let us in. We will talk about access when you book.
What does a storm damage report cost?
Storm damage roof report starts from £150, including VAT. Larger or more complex roofs are quoted for their size. Repair costs are not included, so ask a roofer to quote.
Is it the same as a RICS Level 2 or Level 3 survey?
No. This is a survey of the roof only, and it isn’t a RICS Level 2 or Level 3 survey. Many buyers have both.
Is this an asbestos survey?
No. We can flag materials that might contain asbestos, but confirming it is a job for a specialist asbestos surveyor. Buildings built or refurbished before 2000 may contain it.
How do I arrange a storm damage roof report in Andwell?
It’s easiest to ring 07833 053749 or send us an email. Let us know the address and a little about the roof. Surveys run on weekdays and at weekends.
