DIY checks: what’s safe

Fresh stains on ceilings or walls after rain are worth noting. Photograph them and note the date, which helps when we check the roof.
Storm damage roof reports for homes and businesses in Angmering
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. Our report focuses on the second and third points. You or your insurer can check the weather for the date. If you’re worried about gutters pulled loose in the wind and gaps where slates or tiles have gone, we can find out what’s behind it, whatever the roof.
In a smaller place like Angmering, some roofs face open ground, so wind and driving rain find any weakness in ridges, verges and flashings. A leak that only appears in certain weather often 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.
The report records the roof as we found it on the day. That makes it useful now and a handy reference later.

How we price storm damage roof reports
Several things affect the price of a survey:
- Roof area
- The type of building, from a house to a block or an office
- Features like valleys, chimneys, dormers and parapets
- How tall the building is and how easy the roof is to see
Every price we give includes VAT. Our price is from £150, including VAT. We confirm the price for your survey before booking.
Helping us price your survey
To price your survey accurately, we’ll ask about:
- The kind of building and roof involved
- Your postcode, so we can check access and travel
- How the loft is reached, if there is one
- Pictures from the garden or a window, if you have them
Prices start from £150, including VAT. The exact figure depends on the roof and the package, and you can ring 07833 053749 or email us to find out.
Angmering roofs and the weather
The coast is about 2 miles or less from Angmering. What counts as a storm is set by each policy, frequently gusts of around 55 mph, and the insurer makes the decision. Handmade clay tiles and tile-hung upper walls are typical of older Sussex houses. Horsham stone slab roofs survive on some old Sussex buildings. The covering and its details give the first clues when tracing where water is coming from.
Take a building like St Wilfrids Catholic Primary School: tracing a leak on a big roof starts with where the water appears and works back. If you live in an older home near The Parish Church of St Margaret, old mortar, worn lead and slipped slates are the usual suspects when water gets in. Ecclesden Manor, about 0.4 miles east, is one of the historic houses in the wider area around Angmering. On older roofs nearby, leaks often trace back to lead flashings, valleys and gutters.
Angmering is about 4 miles west of Worthing, in West Sussex. From houses to flats and shops in Angmering, we can survey the roof on a weekday or at the weekend. Our area takes in places right across West Sussex. We also survey roofs in Brighton.

Surveys for landlords and agents in Angmering
For a freeholder or residents’ company, a roof report is a sound basis for a maintenance plan, with the most urgent items set out first.
We survey roofs for landlords and letting agents as well as homeowners. A report with photos gives you a clear record of the roof.
The survey, step by step
Where it is relevant and can be reached safely, the roof space is checked as well as the outside. In the loft, the signs we look for are staining, damp, daylight and sagging, as far as the space allows. All in, the survey usually takes about 1–2 hours at a house, and longer if the damage is spread across a large roof. In a smaller place like Angmering, parking is seldom the issue; lanes, gates and long drives are worth mentioning. On bungalows and lower roofs, much can be seen from the ground, with the loft showing the underside, while taller roofs may need other vantage points or the drone where it applies.
- We start with what you’ve seen and any temporary repairs.
- Inside, we look for signs of water in the loft and rooms below.
- The roof is inspected from the ground, windows and the roof where it is safe.
- We record fresh damage and older defects.
- The report, with photos, is emailed to you.
How to prepare
- Leave a clear route to the loft
- Let us know where we can park nearby
- Gather any invoices or paperwork from past roof work
Book a survey
Most bookings start with a short call: call 07833 053749 or send us an email, and we will ask about the building and what you need. You will have a price before anything is arranged.

Why get it checked now?
The sooner the damage is recorded, the clearer the evidence. Further storms and quick fixes can make the picture less clear. Blocked gutters on homes around Angmering overflow and soak walls, particularly where trees overhang. Dealing with the cause is simple; drying out a wall is not.
There are three survey packages: the Basic Survey from £150, the Standard Survey from £250 and the Premium Survey from £400, with VAT included. The price for your roof depends on its size, access and what you want to find out.

Angmering questions
Is Angmering within the area you cover?
We do. A small place gets exactly the same survey as a big one, with the route planned beforehand.
Is my home in Angmering listed or in a conservation area?
The council and Historic England’s list are the places to check. It’s worth checking before planning roof work, as both can affect what’s allowed.
Does your report mean my claim will be accepted?
The decision is your insurer’s, not ours. We record the damage, with photos and the likely cause, for you to give to your insurer.
Is there a set wind speed for storm damage?
It varies by policy. About 55 mph is a common figure in many policies, but your policy sets the actual test.
How do I book a survey in Angmering?
The quickest way is to ring 07833 053749 or drop us an email. Give us the address and a few details about the roof, and we will suggest the right survey. We survey on weekdays and at weekends.
Do you look in the loft space?
Where it is relevant to the survey and there’s safe access, yes. Please clear anything stored under the hatch.
Do you survey on Saturdays and Sundays?
Surveys can be booked for any day of the week: weekdays, Saturdays and Sundays. Just tell us the days that suit you.
Practical tips
A survey works best with a little help from you, before and after. Some tips:
- Look at what your policy says about wear and tear
- Record any water damage in rooms and the loft
- Check your policy for how to report damage
- Take photos from the ground or a window, never by climbing
You will need a roofer’s quote for the repairs. The report gives them a clear list of the damage.
A well-maintained roof stands up to storms better. Have loose slates, tiles and flashings seen to promptly.
