Storm damage roof report in Camberley
Many policies treat gusts of about 55 mph as storm conditions, but it varies by policy. Check your own policy wording. Whether the weather met it is for your insurer. Our part is recording the damage to your roof and its likely cause. The report includes photos of each area of damage, and you decide what to send. The claim decision rests with your insurer. If you’re worried about slipped or missing slates or tiles and water coming in after the storm, we can find out what’s behind it, whatever the roof.
Strong winds lift loose tiles, slates and ridge pieces in towns like Camberley as anywhere. What counts as a storm depends on your policy; many use gusts of around 55 mph. A report setting out the damage, with photographs, helps you explain what you’ve found. Because wear and tear is typically excluded, the age of any damage matters.
After the visit, you get a photo-illustrated written report, sent by email. It explains the condition of the roof, the defects we found and what we recommend.

The survey, step by step
When we arrive, we start by asking what you’ve noticed and what you want to find out. After that, we check everything we can see safely, from ground level, from windows, in the roof space and by drone where applicable. The survey normally takes roughly 1–2 hours at a typical home, or half a day or so for a commercial building. For a home in Camberley, the main things we need are a way into the loft, a route to the back garden and somewhere to park. If you won’t be there yourself, let us know who will let us in.
- We start with the details: when the storm hit and what damage you can see.
- The roof is looked at from the ground, from windows and from the roof space where it is safe.
- Each area of damage is photographed and described.
- 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.
Getting ready for the survey
- Clear the way to the loft hatch
- Agree roof access with the managing agent if it’s shared
- Point out any leaks or damp patches
How to book

Useful tips for Camberley property owners
Over many surveys, some simple habits stand out:
- Do not go onto the roof to take pictures
- Write down when the storm hit and when you noticed damage
- Keep fallen slates or tiles as evidence if safe
- Arrange temporary cover with a roofer if rain is getting in
Your insurer may send a loss adjuster to look at the damage. Our report gives you an independent record alongside theirs.
Store invoices and reports for any roof work. They can help show the roof was looked after.
Roof by roof
Clay and concrete tiles
A missing tile lets rain reach the underlay. We photograph each gap.
Slate roofs
In high winds, slates can slip or go, often where nails have rusted. We record which slates have moved and any signs of older nail fatigue.
Why it is worth a survey now in Camberley
A few slipped slates can soon lead to wet timbers. Acting quickly normally means less damage overall. Extensions and dormers on homes around Camberley often hide the first signs of trouble at their joints with the main roof. Left for a few seasons, it can spoil plaster, skirting and flooring inside.
Prices quoted always include VAT, and the report is not charged as an extra. Storm damage roof report starts from £150, including VAT. Where your roof sits in the range depends on its size, height and access.

Camberley roofs and the weather
Before planning roof work on an older home, find out whether it’s listed or in a conservation area. 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. Handmade clay tiles and tile-hung walls are typical of Surrey’s older houses. A few of Surrey’s oldest buildings have heavy Horsham stone slab roofs. Where water gets in depends a good deal on what the roof is made of and how it’s detailed.
Anyone responsible for a site like Prior Heath Infant School will know that a leak through a large roof is frequently found some distance from where the water shows inside. Landlords with a home close to Camberley station may find that finding the cause of a leak fast keeps a tenant’s home dry and the work focused. If you live near a park such as Tekels Park, or anywhere with mature trees, autumn leaves can block gutters and valleys, and an overflowing gutter soon means a wet wall.
