Storm damage roof reports for homes and businesses in Bloxham
Each roof is looked at from the safest viewpoints available: from the ground, from windows and higher points, from the loft space and from the roof where it’s safe. We photograph and describe each area of damage. We note any part we couldn’t see. You get a written report with photographs to give to your insurer. If you are worried about damage from fallen branches or debris and loose or torn flashings, we can find out what’s behind it, whatever the roof.
Older cottages and houses around Bloxham may have roofs with little or no underlay. Once the slates or tiles let water past, there’s little to stop it reaching the ceiling. Finding where it gets in, and whether it is old wear or new damage, decides what comes next. Wet battens and insulation in the loft are frequently the first clue.
The report is written in plain words, so you don’t need to be a roofer to follow it. Each point is backed by a photograph where possible, and recommendations are put in order of urgency where relevant.

Should I look at the roof myself first?
A DIY look is useful, but it isn’t a survey. You will not see flashings, valleys or the backs of chimneys properly from the ground.
It helps to keep a record: dates of leaks, photos from the ground and any work done on the roof. Send it with your enquiry and it will help the survey.
Why act early in Bloxham
A few slipped slates can soon lead to wet timbers. Getting it recorded and repaired sooner is typically better. On a bungalow or cottage around Bloxham, the roof sits close to the rooms below, so a small leak can mark a ceiling within a few storms. Finding the cause first saves a second job inside.
One thing that affects the price is the package: from £150 for Basic, £250 for Standard and £400 for Premium, including VAT. The roof’s size, height and access matter as well.

How the survey changes by roof type
Chimney stacks
Pots, cowls and aerials on chimneys can be damaged or dislodged in a storm. We record any damage we can see.
Flat roof coverings
On flat roofs, storms can lift edges and tear membranes. Damage is photographed and described.
The survey, step by step
Safety comes first on every visit. Everything that can be seen safely is inspected, and if part of the roof can’t be seen, the report says so. Most visits take an hour or two at a house, and longer if the damage is spread across a large roof. A visit to Bloxham is planned like any other: the time, the access and where to park are agreed in advance. Weekday and weekend visits are both possible. Tell us about any garages, outbuildings or extensions you want included.
- You tell us when the storm was and what damage you’ve seen.
- We inspect the roof from safe viewpoints and from the loft where there’s access.
- The damage is recorded with photos, area by area.
- The likely cause is recorded, along with any evidence of older wear.
- The findings are written up with photographs for you to share with your insurer.
Getting ready for the survey
- If you’re buying, check with the agent that we can get in
- Tell us about parking before the day
- Check the loft hatch can be reached

Advice
Storm damage roof reports in Bloxham: local notes
Older buildings in west Oxfordshire often have Cotswold stone slate roofs, and some Oxfordshire villages still have thatch. In this part of the South East, older roofs are mostly slate or clay tile and many newer ones concrete tile. Knowing the roof type helps narrow down where water may be getting in. Historic houses such as Broughton Castle, about 1.7 miles north-west, show how far back building in the area around Bloxham goes. 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.
If you run a business near Castle Quay Shopping Centre, a leak can close part of a shop or office, so finding the cause quickly matters. For site and facilities teams at buildings like Bloxham Church of England Primary School, on a building that size, finding the source of a drip means looking well beyond the stain. If you live in an older home near Church of St Mary, lead flashings, valleys and old chimneys are typical places for water to get in.

Your questions about storm damage roof reports in Bloxham
Will you come out to Bloxham?

Will my insurer pay for an old roof?
Wear and tear is usually excluded from home insurance. Our report records storm damage and any older wear we see, so you know what the roof shows. Your insurer decides how its policy applies.
Is this an asbestos survey?
No. Asbestos surveys and sampling aren’t something we do. Where a material might contain it, like old cement sheets on a building from before 2000, the report flags it, with a recommendation to have a specialist asbestos surveyor check before it is disturbed.
