Brent Park Storm Damage Roof Report
Need a storm damage roof report in Brent Park? We can help, with a written report you can act on. Weekday and weekend visits available.
- Holes or cracks caused by debris
- Loose or torn flashings
- Damaged ridges and hips
The survey, step by step
We will ask a few questions first, like when any problem began and what work has been done before. Then the inspection itself takes about 1–2 hours at a house, and longer if the damage is spread across a large roof. In converted houses and mansion blocks, the loft hatch is frequently on a shared landing. Where that is the case, access needs agreeing with whoever controls that landing. Everything else is planned around the building, not the postcode.
- First you give us the date of the storm and what you’ve noticed, inside and out.
- The roof is looked at from ground level, from windows and from the loft space where it is safe.
- The damage is recorded with photographs, area by area.
- We note the likely cause, including any signs of wear that were there before the storm.
- You get a written report you can pass to your insurer.
Preparing for the visit
- Make sure pets are kept safely away
- Clear the way to the loft hatch
- Have any questions written down, so nothing gets missed

How a storm damage roof report works in Brent Park
What counts as a storm depends on your policy, though many use gusts of about 55 mph. Your policy document sets out its own definition. Whether the weather met it is for your insurer. 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. If you are worried about flat roof edges peeled back and gutters pulled loose in the wind, we can find out what’s behind it, on slate and tile slopes, flat roofs and gutters and fascias alike.
Many London homes are well over a century old and their roofs have been patched more than once. Telling wear from a one-off event matters, because insurers normally exclude wear and tear. A careful look in Brent Park tells the two apart where the evidence allows. A written record with photographs helps you explain what was found to whoever deals with it next.
After the visit, you get a written report with photos, emailed to you. It sets out the condition of the roof, any defects and our written recommendations.

Common roof problems in Brent Park
Gusts work at anything on a roof that is loose or exposed. Rain can then blow in where slates or tiles have gone. Most people book a report soon after a storm, when they’ve seen damage or water has come in.
A survey can pick up problems such as:
- Damaged flat roof membrane
- Stains appearing after strong winds
- Gutters pulled loose in the wind
- Holes or cracks caused by debris
If you run a business near London Designer Outlet, a quick answer on where water is coming in keeps a business running.
What to check before booking
- Whether the price includes VAT
- Is there a chance to talk the report through?
- How long they’ve been surveying roofs
- Whether the inside of the roof is included
Rented homes, blocks and businesses
Managing agents and residents’ management companies use roof surveys to plan maintenance. The report sets out what needs attention now and what can wait, which helps with budgets and planning.
Letting agents frequently book on a landlord’s behalf. Access is agreed with the tenant beforehand.

Brent Park questions
Do you carry out roof surveys in Brent Park?
Yes, Brent Park is within the area we cover. Our area covers London and South East England. Just phone 07833 053749 or use the contact form and let us know about the property, and we’ll talk through which survey suits.
Can parking be tricky for a visit in Brent Park?
Sometimes, yes. If Brent Park has controlled parking where you are, a visitor permit is the easiest answer.
Who handles emergency protection after a storm?
Call a roofer for emergency temporary protection. Take photos from ground level first if it is safe. Keep receipts in case your insurer asks for them.
What’s the best way to book?
To arrange a survey, ring 07833 053749 or drop us an email with the address, the type of property and what’s prompted the survey. We will confirm the price and agree a day with you.
Is there a set wind speed for storm damage?
It varies by policy. Many treat gusts of about 55 mph as storm conditions, but check your own wording.
Is it the same as a RICS Level 2 or Level 3 survey?
No. We look at the roof, not the whole building, and it isn’t a RICS Level 2 or Level 3 survey. It can sit alongside a RICS survey if you want both.
What if the roof was already worn?
Wear and tear is typically excluded from home insurance. We note both storm damage and older defects, so you know what the roof shows. How the policy applies is up to your insurer.

Should I look at the roof myself first?
It helps to keep a record: when leaks happen, ground-level photos and any past roof work. Send it with your enquiry, as it helps us focus the survey.
Watch the gutters in a downpour, from a window or the ground. Water spilling over the edge can be a sign of a blockage or a gutter that has dropped.
Leave it or get it looked at?
A few slipped slates can soon lead to wet timbers. Acting quickly normally means less damage overall. Many older London roofs have only old felt under the slates, or no underlay at all, so a slipped slate can soon mean water inside. Left unchecked, water soaks into timber and plaster and the damage spreads.
The Premium Survey includes thermal imaging and drone inspection where it applies, from £400 inc. VAT. We can help you choose the package that fits what you need to know.
Why us?
- A sub-250g drone, flown with a CAA Flyer ID and Operator ID
- Surveys seven days a week
- Independent findings on the roof’s condition
- Thermal imaging and drone inspection where they help

Wind, rain and roofs in Brent Park
About 3.5 miles south-west lies Pitzhanger Manor, a reminder of how long the area around Brent Park has been built on. Older roofs in the wider area can hide decades of patch repairs, so the detail matters, and any change of roofing material on a listed home needs checking with the council first. Alongside Victorian and Edwardian terraces, outer London has a great many interwar semis, often with hipped roofs of clay or concrete tiles. On a semi of that age, the small roofs over the bays, the hip tiles and any later dormer each need their own look. Different coverings let water in at different points, which shapes where the search starts.
If you look after a building like Mitchell Brook Primary School, tracing a leak on a big roof starts with where the water appears and works back. Landlords with a home close to Stonebridge Park station may find that a tenant living with a leak needs the cause found, not just the stain painted over.
