How a storm damage roof report works in Ash Green

If your roof has been damaged, stay safe first. Photograph the damage from ground level or a window, and never climb up. Emergency temporary protection, such as covering an opening, is a job for a roofer. Our report records the damage so you have an independent record to give your insurer. Keep receipts for any emergency work. We survey ridges and hips, flashings and chimney stacks, and the problems we’re asked to look at most are slates and tiles blown off the roof and broken or displaced guttering.

For a small place like Ash Green, the inspection is the same as anywhere: we simply plan the journey and access ahead. Tell us where the water shows, when it appears and anything you’ve noticed outside, along with any repairs done before. If you have photographs of the water coming in, they help as well.

After the visit, you get a written report with photos, sent by email. It explains the condition of the roof, the defects we found and what we recommend.

Storm damage roof reports in Ash Green: local notes

With Wanborough Manor about 2.1 miles east, Ash Green sits in an area with a long building history. If yours is one of the older homes, expect a mix of original materials and later repairs on the roof. 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. Knowing the roof type helps narrow down where water may be getting in.

If you let a flat or house near Ash station, a clear finding on where water gets in helps you brief a roofer straight away. If you live near a park like Aldershot Park, or anywhere with mature trees, autumn leaves can block gutters and valleys, so outlets and downpipes are worth watching. Anyone responsible for a site like Ash Grange Primary School will know that water through a big roof can travel a long way before it drips, so the search covers more than the obvious spot.

Ash Green is about 2 miles east of Aldershot, in Surrey. We carry out storm damage roof reports for householders, landlords and businesses in Ash Green and the surrounding area. We cover towns and villages across Surrey, from the larger towns to small villages. There’s also a page for Guildford.

Ash Green: your questions answered

Do you cover Ash Green?

Yes, Ash Green is within the area we cover. Our area covers London and South East England. Just ring 07833 053749 or use the contact form and let us know about the property.

Is my home in Ash Green listed or in a conservation area?

You can check whether a building is listed on Historic England’s list, and your council can tell you if it’s in a conservation area. Listed building consent is needed for changes that affect a listed building’s special interest, and conservation areas can limit changes of roofing material.

Can you put a tarpaulin over the damage?

A roofer should handle temporary protection. If it is safe, take photos before it goes on. Our report then records the roof.

Will you fly a drone over my roof?

Where it helps and the rules allow, yes. Our sub-250g drone is flown by a CAA-registered operator with a Flyer ID and Operator ID, and every flight depends on the airspace and the weather.

Does someone need to be in?

It depends on what we need to see. Inside the building and in the loft, we need someone to let us in, while outside access can be discussed when you book.

Does this replace a RICS home survey?

No. We’re experienced roof surveyors, and our survey covers the roof rather than the whole building. If you need a full building survey, you’ll need a RICS survey as well.

How long have you been surveying roofs?

More than 5,000 surveys over 20+ years.

Surveys for landlords and agents in Ash Green

Landlords, agents and building managers in Ash Green and across Surrey can book any of our surveys. To discuss a property or a block, ring 07833 053749 or use the contact form.

We survey roofs for letting agents and landlords as well as householders. A photo-illustrated written report gives you a clear record of the roof, which helps you plan work between tenancies.

What happens on the day

There is not much for you to do on the day. Show us any stains, drips or problem areas you know about, and we’ll get on with the inspection. A typical survey takes roughly 1–2 hours at a house, and longer if the damage is spread across a large roof. Older rural homes like those around Ash Green can have a main roof, lower lean-to roofs and outbuildings all joined together. We work round each section in turn, from the safest viewpoints, and anything we can’t see is noted.

  1. First we go through when the storm hit and what you’ve noticed.
  2. The roof is inspected from safe positions.
  3. We record and photograph the damage.
  4. We note the likely cause and any signs of older wear.
  5. We send you the report by email for your insurer.

Getting ready for the survey

  • Move anything stored under the loft hatch
  • If it isn’t your property yet, arrange access through the agent
  • Have keys ready for side gates, garages or roof access doors

Getting a price

To arrange a survey, phone 07833 053749 or email us with the address and what you’d like to know about the roof. You’ll know the price before anything is booked.

Why it is worth a survey now in Ash Green

Damage left open lets in more rain. Further water damage can blur what the storm actually did. A roofer should deal with emergency protection quickly. For an older or listed building in a place like Ash Green, repairs may need matching materials and consent, so a defect found early gives time to plan the work properly.

To find out what your survey will cost, ring 07833 053749 or use the contact form and let us know about the roof. We’ll confirm the figure before booking.

Why book with us

  • Independent findings on the roof’s condition
  • Visits on any day of the week
  • Covered by professional indemnity and public liability insurance
  • Packages from £150, with VAT included

Before and after the survey

Most of what helps is simple and safe from the ground. A few suggestions:

  • Take photos from ground level or a window, never by climbing
  • Tell your insurer about the damage promptly
  • Read your policy wording on storm damage
  • Keep receipts for any emergency work

The insurer might appoint a loss adjuster. You’ll have your own independent record to refer to.

Keep gutters and outlets clear so heavy rain can drain away. Overflowing gutters can make storm damage worse.
