How a storm damage roof report works in Bierton
Many policies treat gusts of about 55 mph as storm conditions, but it varies by policy. Check your own policy wording. We do not decide whether a storm met that test. We record the damage and what seems to have caused it. Each area of damage is photographed, and the report is yours to pass on. The claim decision rests with your insurer. Typical surveys look at damaged gutters and fascias and damaged flat roof membrane, on flat roofs, slate and tile slopes and gutters and fascias.
For a small place like Bierton, the inspection is the same as anywhere: we simply plan the journey and access ahead. It’s useful to know where the water appears, in what weather, and what you’ve seen outside, plus any earlier repairs. Photos of the stain and of the roof from outside are helpful too.
What you get is a clear record of the roof on the day we saw it. That makes it useful now and a handy reference later, such as when you want to compare after future work.

Wind, rain and roofs in Bierton
Before planning roof work on an older home, find out whether it is listed or in a conservation area. Changes that affect a listed building’s special interest need listed building consent, and councils can also use Article 4 directions to control changes in conservation areas. Some villages in Buckinghamshire still have thatched roofs. Across the South East, older homes tend to have slate or clay tiles, and many later ones concrete tiles. Knowing the roof type helps narrow down where water may be getting in.
If your house is among the older ones in the streets near Church of St James, water on an older roof tends to find its way in at the lead, the valleys or the chimney. Landlords with a home close to Aylesbury station may find that a clear finding on where water gets in helps you brief a roofer straight away.
Bierton is about 2 miles north-east of Aylesbury, in Buckinghamshire. From houses to flats and shops in Bierton, the roof can be surveyed on a weekday or at the weekend. Our Buckinghamshire coverage includes Bierton. Our Milton Keynes page covers surveys nearby.

Why act early in Bierton
If the damage is partly wear and tear, it’s better to know. We record storm damage and older defects, so you know what the roof shows.

- Chimney stacks
- Flat roofs
- Ridges and hips
- Flashings
- Gutters and fascias
What we do, step by step
We’ll ask a few questions first, about the roof’s history, any leaks and past repairs. Then the inspection itself takes between one and two hours for a house, or half a day or so for a commercial building. For a village or hamlet like Bierton, the journey is planned beforehand: tell us about narrow lanes, gates, long drives and where we can park. On the day, we inspect everything that’s safely in view, inside and out.
- We start with the details: when the storm hit and what damage you can see.
- We inspect the roof from safe viewpoints and from the loft where there is access.
- Each area of damage is photographed and described.
- The likely cause is recorded, along with any evidence of older wear.
- We send you a written report with photos, ready to give to your insurer.
How to prepare
- Point out any leaks or damp patches
- Keep pets inside or away from the areas we’re looking at
- Let us know where we can park nearby
How to book

Every price we give includes VAT, and the report isn’t charged as an extra. Prices start from £150, including VAT. Where your roof sits in the range depends on its size, height and access.

- The kind of building and roof involved
- Access details, such as a loft hatch or a shared roof

Bierton questions
How do I find out if my home in Bierton is listed?
Your council is the best source, with Historic England’s list for listed buildings. Both listing and conservation areas can limit changes of roofing material, and councils can also use Article 4 directions.
Do you cover smaller places like Bierton?
Yes, Bierton is on our map. A small place gets exactly the same survey as a big one.
Will you fly a drone over my roof?
Where it is applicable and safe, yes. We’re a CAA-registered drone operator (Flyer ID and Operator ID), flying a sub-250g drone. Drone inspection is part of the Drone Roof Survey and the Premium Survey, where applicable.
Who handles emergency protection after a storm?
A roofer should handle temporary protection. Photograph the damage first if you can do so safely. Our report then records the roof.
Do you look in the roof space?
Where it is relevant to the survey and there’s safe access, yes. Please clear anything stored under the hatch.
How do I arrange a storm damage roof report in Bierton?
Simply phone 07833 053749 or email us with the address. After a few questions, we confirm the price and fix a day, weekday or weekend.
Can I challenge a declined storm claim?
Raise it with your insurer first. The Financial Ombudsman Service may look at it if that doesn’t resolve it. The Ombudsman asks about storm conditions, whether the damage is consistent with a storm and whether the storm was the main cause.
