Storm damage roof reports for homes and businesses in Bexon
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. Our report records what has happened to your roof, with photos. Where we also see signs of older wear, the report records that too. We survey slate and tile slopes, flat roofs and chimney stacks, and common reasons people get in touch are slates and tiles blown off the roof and lead lifted at abutments.
Being in a small place like Bexon makes no difference to how a leak or storm damage is looked at: the journey and access are just planned beforehand. Let us know where the water shows, when it appears and anything you’ve noticed outside, along with any repairs done before. Photos of the stain and of the roof from outside are helpful too.
With the Standard Survey, you also get moisture detection, a structural check and a follow-up consultation. The Premium Survey goes further, with thermal imaging, drone inspection where applicable, structural analysis and an in-person consultation.

What you can safely check yourself
Keep a simple record: when leaks happen, ground-level photos and any past roof work. Share it with us when booking and it will help the survey.
What you cannot do safely is get up close. Slates, tiles, flat roofs and rooflights can give way, and a fall can be serious. That part is for a survey, using safe viewpoints and a drone where it applies.
Bexon roofs and the weather
The coast is about 5 miles or less from Bexon, and places near the sea get more salt in the air and more wind than inland. Strong wind lifts anything already loose, and driving rain gets in wherever it can, while salt slowly corrodes metal fixings and flashings. Older houses across Kent frequently have handmade clay or peg tiles, and many have tile-hung walls. Kent’s older buildings take in oast houses and timber-framed Wealden hall houses as well. Where water gets in depends a good deal on what the roof is made of and how it is detailed.
Trees in and around Cromers Wood shed leaves that can end up in nearby gutters. The streets around a church such as Church of St John the Baptist are often among the oldest in a place, and if your home is one of the older ones nearby, the leak may come from a chimney, a valley or tired lead rather than the covering itself.

What happens if roof problems are left?
Once the storm has passed, damage that looked minor can let water in for months. Getting it recorded and repaired sooner is usually better. Where a roof is exposed, as many are in small places like Bexon, driving rain gets into any weakness, and older walls, once damp, take a long time to dry.

Questions from Bexon
How do I find out if my home in Bexon is listed?
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.
Is the coastal weather around Bexon hard on roofs?
Often, yes. Within about 5 miles of the sea, as Bexon is, metal fixings wear faster and gales find any loose ridge or slate.
Do you survey roofs on blocks of flats?
Yes, once access has been agreed. Roofs over flats are often shared, so the freeholder or managing agent needs to agree access. We inspect only the parts we’re allowed to reach.
How long have you been surveying roofs?
We’ve completed more than 5,000 surveys, over more than 20 years, with 98% customer satisfaction.
Is Bexon in your area?
Yes. We survey roofs across London and South East England, Bexon included.
How long is the visit?
It usually takes between one and two hours at a house, and longer if the damage is spread across a large roof. The report follows by email.
Are you loss adjusters?
No. We aren’t loss adjusters and do not act for you with the insurer. We give you an independent report of the damage for you to send to your insurer.
The survey, step by step
There isn’t much for you to do on the day. Point out anything you’ve noticed, like stains, drips or loose pieces, and we will get on with the inspection. A typical survey takes between one and two hours for most homes, depending on how much of the roof was hit. For a village or hamlet like Bexon, the journey is planned ahead of time: tell us about narrow lanes, gates, long drives and where we can park. On the day, we inspect what can safely be seen, inside and out.
- We note the date of the storm and the damage you’ve seen.
- The roof is inspected from safe positions.
- 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
- Note where any stains or damp appear
- Have any paperwork from past roof work to hand
- Make a note of anything you’d like us to look at

Landlords, agents and block managers in Bexon
An agent can book and manage the survey for a landlord, and the report can go to both. We agree a time with the tenant beforehand.
Where a roof is shared: we need access agreed with whoever owns or manages the building. Mention it when you get in touch and we will plan the survey around it.
When to book a survey in Bexon
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.
Here are some of the things we see frequently:
- Lifted or missing ridge and hip tiles
- New damp or leaks inside
- Slates and tiles blown off the roof
- Cowls or aerials dislodged in the wind
If you look after a building such as Bredgar Church of England Primary School, water through a big roof can travel a long way before it drips, so the search covers more than the obvious spot.

Some things cannot be seen without opening up the roof, and that sets some limits:
- Your insurer’s view of the claim
- A price for the repairs
