Carpenders Park Storm Damage Roof Report
Storm damage roof reports in Carpenders Park from an independent, experienced roof surveyor. More than 20 years and over 5,000 surveys across London and the South East.
- Flashings pulled away from walls or stacks
- Water coming in after the storm
- Gaps where slates or tiles have gone
How it works
A survey visit follows a simple order: we listen to what’s been worrying you, inspect the roof from every safe vantage point, photograph what we find and make notes for the report. It normally takes about one to two hours at a house, and longer if the damage is spread across a large roof. London terraces rarely offer a view of the whole roof from one spot, so a visit in Carpenders Park moves between viewpoints: the pavement, upstairs windows, the loft and any safe spot at the back. Shared stairs or a basement flat? Let us know who holds the keys.
- You tell us when the storm was and what damage you’ve seen.
- The roof is looked at from ground level, from windows and from the loft space where it is safe.
- We photograph and record every area of damage we can see.
- We check whether the damage fits storm damage, older wear or both.
- We send you a written report with photos, ready to give to your insurer.
Getting ready for the survey
- Point out any leaks or damp patches
- For flats, make sure roof access has been agreed
- Jot down any questions you want answered

Storm damage roof reports for homes and businesses in Carpenders Park
A storm damage roof report is priced from £150. You get a written report with photos by email. It is not a repair quote and does not include repair costs, so ask a roofer to quote for the work. The insurer may still send a loss adjuster of its own. What you get is an independent record of the damage and what seems to have caused it. If you are worried about lifted or missing ridge and hip tiles and slipped or missing slates or tiles, a survey will tell you what’s going on, whatever the roof.
In converted houses and blocks across London, water from a roof can run a long way before it shows on a ceiling, sometimes in a different flat from the one below the defect. Tracing it back matters, both for dealing with the cause and for any insurance claim. In Carpenders Park, we inspect what we can reach safely and are given access to. It’s useful to know when the water appears and in what weather.
The report is written in plain words, so it makes sense without any roofing background. Each point is backed by a photograph where possible.

Different roofs, different checks
Chimney stacks
Older stacks with worn pointing or cracked flaunching are more likely to suffer. We record both the storm damage and the older wear.
Clay and concrete tiles
Broken or missing tiles leave the underlay exposed to rain. We photograph each gap.
What a storm damage roof report looks like in Carpenders Park
Historic houses such as Headstone Manor, about 2.6 miles south-east, show how far back building in the area around Carpenders Park goes. 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 a listed home or one in a conservation area may need consent for changes of material. In outer London, interwar semis with hipped, tiled roofs sit alongside older slate-roofed terraces. On a semi of that age, the small roofs over the bays, the hip tiles and any later dormer each need their own look. Knowing the roof type helps narrow down where water may be getting in.
If you let a flat or house near Carpenders Park station, a tenant living with a leak needs the cause found, not just the stain painted over. If you live in an older home near Oxhey Chapel, water on an older roof tends to find its way in at the lead, the valleys or the chimney. If you look after a building like St Meryl School, water through a big roof can travel a long way before it drips, so the search covers more than the obvious spot.

Useful tips for Carpenders Park property owners
Most of what helps is simple and safe from the ground. A few suggestions:
- Take photos from ground level or a window, never by climbing
- Report the damage to your insurer as soon as you can
- Keep any slates, tiles or debris that fall, if it is safe to do so
- Arrange temporary cover with a roofer if rain is getting in
Once we’ve been, the findings are written up with photos. It covers the damage, its likely cause and any older defects. Turnaround is within 48 hours for Basic, 24 to 48 hours for Standard and the same day for Premium.
Keep gutters and outlets clear so heavy rain can drain away. Overflowing gutters can make storm damage worse.
