Storm damage roof reports for homes and businesses in Bradwell
A storm damage roof report is an independent record of the damage to your roof after a storm. We record each area of damage, photograph it and note the likely cause. You can then give it to your insurer with your claim. The decision on any claim rests with your insurer and its policy wording. We’re not loss adjusters, and we cannot tell you whether a claim will succeed. We survey gutters and fascias, flashings and chimney stacks, and common reasons people get in touch are damaged gutters and fascias and loose or torn flashings.
Around Bradwell, chimneys on older homes are a common source of leaks, through worn flaunching, failed pointing or lifted flashings. Damp in a chimney breast can have more than one cause, so it isn’t always obvious where it starts. It is worth looking at the stack from outside and at the timbers beside it in the loft.
The report records the roof as we found it on the day. That makes it useful now and a handy reference later.

What affects the price in Bradwell
We confirm the price for the job before booking. This is what makes a difference:
- Whether thermal imaging or a drone is needed
- How tall the building is and how easy the roof is to see
- Features like valleys, chimneys, dormers and parapets
- How many separate roofs there are, such as extensions, dormers and garages
Larger roofs, taller buildings and commercial roofs take longer, so they’re priced to match. You’ll know the figure before booking.
Getting in touch
You don’t need to know any roofing terms. It’s enough to let us know:
- The property’s address and postcode
- Where water is showing inside, if it is
- The reason for the survey, like buying, a leak or storm damage
- When you need the report by

Why it’s worth a survey now in Bradwell
With an independent report, you have something specific to show your insurer. It sets out what we found and the likely cause, so you’re not relying only on your own photos. In an older home around Bradwell, water from a roof defect can get into timber and plaster, which is far harder to put right than the roof fault itself.
Price depends partly on the package: from £150 for Basic, £250 for Standard and £400 for Premium, with VAT included. The roof’s size, height and access matter as well.
Why us?
- Over 20 years’ experience
- Every finding written up with photos
- Surveys seven days a week
- We hold a CAA Flyer ID and Operator ID

What we look for on each type of roof
Flat roof coverings
Edge trims and laps are frequently where flat roof coverings start to peel back. The report notes signs of recent damage and older wear.
Ridge and hip tiles
Water can get in where ridge tiles have moved. We photograph and describe the damage.
For landlords and managing agents
We survey roofs for landlords and letting agents as well as homeowners. The report gives you a dated record of the roof, with photographs, useful for planning maintenance.
Freeholders and residents’ companies use a roof report to plan and budget, putting the urgent items at the top.
Bradwell questions
How do I find out if my home in Bradwell is listed?
Your council is the best source, with Historic England’s list for listed buildings. A change of roofing material may need consent in either case.
Will you come out to Bradwell?
Yes, smaller places are covered as well as towns. Our area covers London and South East England. Let us know about access, parking and anything unusual about getting there when you book.
Is this a RICS survey?
No. Our survey is a roof survey, not a RICS Level 2 or Level 3 survey of the whole building. It focuses on the roof, so it sits alongside a building survey rather than replacing it.
Can you survey at the weekend?
We carry out surveys on any day of the week. To find a day that suits you, ring 07833 053749 or drop us an email.
Will you go up on the roof?
Not always. Safety comes first, and fragile or steep roofs can’t always be walked on. Safe viewpoints, the loft and a drone where it applies let us see the rest.
Can you inspect my roof with a drone?
Where it helps and it is safe, yes. Flights depend on the weather on the day and airspace rules. We hold a CAA Flyer ID and Operator ID.
How long is the visit?
Most surveys take between one and two hours for most homes, depending on how much of the roof was hit. We’ll confirm the timing when you book.

How it works
Where it is relevant and can be reached safely, the loft space is checked as well as the outside. In the loft, the signs we look for are staining, damp, daylight and sagging. All in, the survey typically takes roughly 1–2 hours for most homes, depending on how much of the roof was hit. Homes around Bradwell frequently have gardens on more than one side, which gives us room to step back and see the roof. Let us know if any side is fenced off or hard to reach. Inside, the loft is checked where it can be reached safely.
- We start with the details: when the storm hit and what damage you can see.
- The roof is looked at from ground level, from windows and from the loft space where it’s safe.
- The damage is recorded with photos, area by area.
- The likely cause is recorded, along with any evidence of older wear.
- You get a written report you can pass to your insurer.
Before we arrive
- If the roof is shared, arrange access with whoever manages the building
- Jot down any questions you want answered
- Move anything stored under the loft hatch

Advice
What a storm damage roof report looks like in Bradwell
Bradwell is part of Milton Keynes, one of the post-war new towns. Homes from the post-war decades are common in the new towns, many with low-pitched roofs in concrete tiles and flat-roofed garages or porches. Low pitches let wind-driven rain reach further under the tiles, and flat-roofed garages and porches are common leak points. With Linford Manor about 2 miles north-east, Bradwell sits in an area with a long building history. Older roofs in the wider area can hide decades of patch repairs, so the detail matters, and the council can say whether a home is in a conservation area.
Anyone responsible for a site like Bradwell Village School will know that on a building that size, finding the source of a drip means looking well beyond the stain. Take an older house close to Church of St Lawrence: leaks on older roofs frequently start at lead flashings, valleys or around old chimney stacks.
