Storm damage roof report in Bishop's Sutton: what you get
What counts as a storm depends on your policy, though many use gusts of about 55 mph. Check your own policy wording. Whether the weather met it is for your insurer. We record the damage and what seems to have caused it. The report includes photographs of each area of damage, and you decide what to send. Insurers decide claims on their own policy wording. We survey flashings, chimney stacks and ridges and hips, and the problems we’re asked to look at most are damaged gutters and fascias and gaps where slates or tiles have gone.
For a small place like Bishop's Sutton, the inspection is the same as anywhere: the journey and access are just planned in advance. Tell us where the water shows, when it appears and anything you’ve noticed outside, plus any earlier repairs. Photographs of the stain and of the roof from outside are helpful too.
Findings are set out part by part, from the main slopes down to the gutters and outlets, each with a short note and a photo. You’ll see the good as well as the bad.

Do you need a storm damage roof report in Bishop's Sutton?
Branches and trees often come down on roofs during storms. The report shows what was hit and the damage caused, with photos.
These are some of the problems a survey can pick up:
- Lead lifted at abutments
- Broken or displaced guttering
- Ridge tiles that have come loose
- Water coming in after the storm
For site and facilities teams at buildings such as Perins School, on a building that size, finding the source of a drip means looking well beyond the stain.
Choosing a roof surveyor
- Which viewpoints they use to see the roof
- What exactly goes into their report
- Their drone registration, if they fly one
- Will they check the loft as well as the outside?

Why it’s worth a survey now in Bishop's Sutton
It helps to get a record soon after the storm, while the damage is fresh. Later weather and temporary repairs can make it harder to see what happened. In a small place like Bishop's Sutton, homes can be exposed to wind and rain, which finds any gap, and older walls, once damp, take a long time to dry.
What a survey costs comes down to the roof itself: how big it is, how high it is, the number of separate roofs and how safely it can be seen. Storm damage roof report starts from £150, including VAT.

What a storm damage roof report looks like in Bishop's Sutton
A number of Hampshire villages keep thatched roofs on their older buildings. Slate and clay tile are the usual coverings on older South East houses, with concrete tiles on many later estates. Where water gets in depends a good deal on what the roof is made of and how it’s detailed. Hinton Ampner House, about 2.9 miles south, is one of the historic houses in the wider area around Bishop's Sutton. Period homes nearby can have lead valleys, tall chimneys and a patchwork of past repairs, and a listed home or one in a conservation area may need consent for changes of material.
For an older house near a landmark such as Church of St Nicholas, leaks on older roofs often start at lead flashings, valleys or around old chimney stacks.

How it works
Expect us to ask a few questions before we start, such as when any problem began and what work has been done before. Then the inspection itself takes between one and two hours for most houses, with bigger or more complicated roofs taking longer. In a hamlet or village like Bishop's Sutton, 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.
- First you give us the date of the storm and what you’ve noticed, inside and out.
- We view the roof from wherever it can safely be seen, including the loft where there is access.
- The damage is recorded with photographs, area by area.
- We check whether the damage fits storm damage, older wear or both.
- You get a written report you can pass to your insurer.
Before we arrive
- Tell us about parking before the day
- Keep pets in another room
- Tell us about any leaks, stains or damp patches you know of
