Storm Damage Roof Report in Brookwood
Wondering about the roof at a property in Brookwood? You can book a storm damage roof report in Brookwood and across Surrey, with plain-English findings.
- Broken or displaced guttering

Why act early in Brookwood
Before temporary repairs, photograph the damage from ground level if it is safe. Those photos show the damage as it was. Matching old materials, such as handmade tiles or stone slates, can take time to source. That is one more reason to find defects before they become urgent.
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 it can be reached and seen safely. Our price is from £150, including VAT.

About our storm damage roof report in Brookwood
We inspect the roof from wherever it can safely be seen: the ground, windows and vantage points, the loft where there’s access, and the roof itself where that is safe. We photograph and describe each area of damage. If part of the roof cannot be seen, the report says so. The report, with photos, is yours to pass to your insurer. If you are worried about gaps where slates or tiles have gone and damaged gutters and fascias, we can find out what’s behind it.
Roofs in small places like Brookwood frequently stand in the open, where storms hit ridges, verges and chimneys hardest. Damp in old stone, brick or timber walls is slow to dry out, which makes finding the cause quickly worthwhile. A written record also helps if you need to explain it to anyone else.
The report doesn’t just list problems. For each finding, it explains what it is, why it matters and what we’d recommend, so you can plan your next steps.

How the survey works
We photograph the roof as we go, so you can see in the report what we found and where. Close-ups come from the safest viewpoint available, including by drone where it is applicable and the weather allows. A typical visit takes roughly 1–2 hours for a house, with bigger or more complicated roofs taking longer. In a small place like Brookwood, access is typically the main thing to plan. Let us know about outbuildings, past repairs and any leaks you’ve noticed. Weekday and weekend visits are available.

What a storm damage roof report looks like in Brookwood
If your home is older, it is worth knowing whether it is listed or in a conservation area before planning roof work. Changes that affect a listed building’s special interest need listed building consent, and councils can also use Article 4 directions to control changes in conservation areas. In Surrey, older roofs are frequently handmade clay tile, with tile-hanging on many upper walls. Horsham stone slab roofs survive on some old buildings in Surrey. The covering and its details give the first clues when tracing where water is coming from.
If you let a flat or house near Brookwood station, tracing a leak quickly matters when a tenant is living with it. Take an older house close to Saint Saviour's Church: leaks on older roofs often start at lead flashings, valleys or around old chimney stacks. If you live near a park like Brookwood Lye, or anywhere with mature trees, autumn leaves can block gutters and valleys, and blocked gutters overflow and soak walls.

What we look for on each type of roof
Chimney stacks
Pots, cowls and aerials on chimneys can be damaged or dislodged in a storm. The report notes any damage to the stack.
Slate roofs
Natural slate can last 100 years or more, but the nails frequently fail first. We check whether slipped slates suggest storm damage, older wear or both.
What a survey costs
Several things affect the price of a survey:
- Basic, Standard or Premium
- Chimneys, valleys, parapets and other details
- How tall the building is and how easy the roof is to see
- House, block, shop or office
We offer three survey packages: Basic from £150, Standard from £250 and Premium from £400, all inc. VAT. What your roof costs depends on its size, access and what you want to find out.
Getting in touch
You do not need to know any roofing terms. Just let us know:
- The kind of building and roof involved

- Any photos you have, taken from ground level or a window

Brookwood: your questions answered
Is Brookwood in the area you cover?
We do. Every survey there gets the same written report with photos, and visits run on weekdays and weekends.
Will you come out to Brookwood?
Yes, Brookwood is covered. We work right across London and South East England, and smaller places are part of that. The journey is planned ahead, so it helps to know about access.
Is wear and tear covered by insurance?
Wear and tear is not typically covered. Our report gives an honest view of what’s recent damage and what’s older wear. The claim decision is your insurer’s.
What do I do if water is coming in?
Emergency temporary protection is a job for a roofer. If it’s safe, take photos before it goes on. We can record the damage in our report.
How much is a storm damage roof report?
Prices start from £150, including VAT. Larger or more complex roofs are quoted for their size. It doesn’t include repair costs, so you will need a roofer’s quote for those.
Do you test for asbestos?
No. Asbestos surveys and testing are not part of what we do. We flag materials that could contain asbestos, such as cement sheets or soffits on pre-2000 buildings.
Is this a RICS survey?
No. We check the roof, not the whole building, so it’s not a RICS Level 2 or Level 3 survey. Many buyers have both.
Practical tips
Some practical points come up on survey after survey. They’re worth knowing whatever the roof:
- Ask a roofer for emergency temporary protection if water is coming in
- Report the damage to your insurer as soon as you can
- Look at what your policy says about wear and tear
- Take photos of stains and damp inside
After the visit, we write up the report with photographs of each area of damage. It covers the damage, its likely cause and any older defects. Basic reports arrive within 48 hours, Standard reports in 24 to 48 hours and Premium reports the same day.
After a storm, look at the roof from the street or garden. With binoculars, you can frequently spot problems without climbing. Do not go up a ladder to look.
