Common questions in Bromley

It depends on the street. Where there are permit zones, a visitor permit or nearby pay-and-display bay works well.

Can you inspect my roof with a drone?
Yes, where it’s applicable. Whether we can fly on the day depends on the weather and the airspace rules, including flight restriction zones near airports. We hold a CAA Flyer ID and Operator ID.
Will my insurer pay for an old roof?
Wear and tear is typically 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.

Storm damage roof report in Bromley: what you get
Storms tend to find the weak points on a roof. Typical damage includes lost slates and tiles, lifted ridges, loose flashings and torn flat roof coverings. Falling branches can cause damage too. Our report records what has happened to your roof, with photos. Where we also see signs of older wear, the report records that too. If you’re worried about gaps where slates or tiles have gone and flashings pulled away from walls or stacks, a survey will tell you what’s going on, whatever the roof.
Water getting into a London home frequently comes from a detail you cannot see from the street: the valley gutter in a butterfly roof, a parapet gutter, a chimney flashing or the flat roof over a rear extension. Whether you’re tracing a leak or recording storm damage in Bromley, those are among the first places to look. Water from a hidden gutter can run along joists and show up a room or two away.
The report is yours to share with whoever needs it: a seller or estate agent, an insurer, a roofer, a builder or a managing agent.

Roofs we survey in Bromley
- Flat roofs
- Flashings
- Ridges and hips
- Slate and tile slopes
- Chimney stacks
- Gutters and fascias
What we do, step by step
Before we start, tell us why you’ve booked: a purchase, a leak, a storm, new work or simply peace of mind. It helps us focus on what matters most to you. Most visits take about one to two hours at most homes, rising to roughly 3–4 hours on a commercial building. In a London conversion, the way into the roof space is often from a communal landing or the top flat. Where that is the case, access needs agreeing with whoever controls that landing. Everything else is planned around the building, not the postcode.
- We start with what you’ve seen and any temporary repairs.
- We check inside, including the loft where there’s access, for water damage.
- The roof is inspected from ground level, windows and the roof where it is safe.
- Storm damage and older wear are recorded separately where we can.
- The report, with photos, is emailed to you.
Before we arrive
- Have any questions written down, so nothing gets missed
- Check pets are kept safely away
- Buyers: confirm access with the estate agent or seller
Getting a price
If you are buying, it’s useful to book soon after your offer is accepted, so you have the findings in time to act on them before you exchange. Otherwise, simply phone 07833 053749 or email us whenever suits you.

Storm damage roof reports around Bromley
The wider area around Bromley has a long history of building, with Sutton House about 2.2 miles north-west. Older homes in the wider area often have features worth a closer look, such as lead valleys, tall stacks and roofs that have been patched over the years, and the council can say whether a home is in a conservation area. Welsh slate on Victorian and Edwardian terraces is a familiar sight across inner London. Behind many of their parapets sit butterfly roofs and valley gutters that can’t be seen from the pavement. Shared chimney stacks, party-wall upstands and lead work come with this kind of house. Where water gets in depends a good deal on what the roof is made of and how it’s detailed.
For an older house near a landmark like Bow Church, lead flashings, valleys and old chimneys are typical places for water to get in. Anyone responsible for a site like St Agnes RC Primary School will know that water through a big roof can travel a long way before it drips, so the search covers more than the obvious spot. Homes near green spaces such as Bob's Park can get more leaves in their gutters in autumn.

How we price storm damage roof reports
When we price a survey, we consider:
- Roof area
- Features like valleys, chimneys, dormers and parapets
- House, block, shop or office
- Basic, Standard or Premium
We offer three survey packages: Basic from £150, Standard from £250 and Premium from £400, with VAT included. The price for your roof depends on its size, access and what you want to find out.
Helping us price your survey
A little information up front helps. It helps to include:
- Where water is showing inside, if it is
- Access details, such as a loft hatch or a shared roof
- Your postcode, so we can check access and travel
- Any photos you have, taken from the ground or a window
You can call us seven days a week. For a price or to book, ring 07833 053749 or drop us an email.
Useful tips for Bromley property owners
Here are a few things we’d tell any owner:
- Keep any slates, tiles or debris that fall, if it’s safe to do so
- Don’t go onto the roof to take pictures
- Ask a roofer for emergency temporary protection if water is coming in
- Record any water damage in rooms and the loft
If anything in the report is not clear, just ask us. The Standard Survey includes a follow-up consultation and the Premium Survey an in-person consultation.
A well-maintained roof stands up to storms better. Fix slipped slates, loose ridges and lifted flashings when you spot them.
What happens if roof problems are left?
A clear, independent record helps you explain the damage to your insurer. It sets out what we found and the likely cause, so you are not relying only on your own photos. Blocked gutters and hoppers on London houses overflow and soak brickwork, which can lead to damp inside. A blocked outlet ignored for a winter or two can mean damp walls inside.
Price depends partly on the package: from £150 for Basic, £250 for Standard and £400 for Premium, including VAT. Size, height and access can affect the price too.
