Storm damage roof report in Church Crookham
Each roof is looked at from the safest viewpoints available: from the ground, from windows and higher points, from the loft space and from the roof where it’s 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. We’re frequently asked to look into slates and tiles blown off the roof and flashings pulled away from walls or stacks, on gutters and fascias, slate and tile slopes and chimney stacks.
For a small place like Church Crookham, the inspection is the same as anywhere: we simply plan the journey and access ahead. Tell us where the water shows, when it appears and anything you’ve noticed outside, plus any earlier repairs. If you have photos of the water coming in, they help as well.
We keep jargon out of it: if work is needed, the report says so clearly.

How it works
We do not take risks to get a closer look. We inspect everything that’s safely in view, and if part of the roof can’t be seen, the report says so. The survey usually takes roughly 1–2 hours at most homes, and more on a big or complicated roof. Somewhere like Church Crookham needs a little journey planning: let us know about narrow lanes, gates, long drives and where we can park. The roof is looked at from the ground, from windows, from the loft where there’s safe access and from the roof where it is safe.
- First we go through when the storm hit and what you’ve noticed.
- The roof is inspected from safe positions.
- We record and photograph the damage.
- We note the likely cause and any signs of older wear.
- You get a written report to pass to your insurer.
How to prepare
- Leave side gates unlocked
- Show us where any leaks or stains appear
- Find any records of previous roof work
Booking a survey

Advice
FAQs for Church Crookham
Is Church Crookham in the area you cover?
We do. The survey and report are the same in Church Crookham as anywhere else.
Is my home in Church Crookham listed or in a conservation area?
We can’t confirm that for you, but Historic England’s list and your council can. A change of roofing material may need consent in either case.
Will you go up on the roof?
Only where it’s safe to do so. We check everything that can be seen safely: from the ground, from windows and vantage points, from the roof space, from the roof itself where safe and by drone where it applies. The report says if anything couldn’t be seen.
Are you loss adjusters?
No. We aren’t loss adjusters and do not act for you with the insurer. We give you an independent report of the damage, which you can pass to your insurer.
Is it the same as a RICS Level 2 or Level 3 survey?
No. We’re experienced roof surveyors, and our survey covers the roof rather than the whole building. For the rest of the building, a RICS home survey is a separate job.
Does your report mean my claim will be accepted?
Only your insurer can decide that. Our report records what is damaged, with photos, and the likely cause, for you to give to your insurer.
How are storm damage reports priced?
A storm damage report starts from £150. Larger roofs are quoted for their size. Repair costs aren’t part of the report.
Should I look at the roof myself first?
Look up at the roof after a storm, from ground level: broken slates or tiles in the garden, gaps along the ridge or loose lead are signs to note. Don’t go up yourself.
Keep a simple record: dates of leaks, photos from ground level and any work done on the roof. Share it with us when booking, as it helps us focus the survey.

What affects the price in Church Crookham
What a survey costs depends on the time and equipment it needs. That comes down to:
- The roof’s overall size
- Whether thermal imaging or a drone is needed
- Basic, Standard or Premium
- The type of building, from a house to a block or an office
One thing that affects the price is the package: Basic from £150, Standard from £250 or Premium from £400, all with VAT included. The roof’s size, height and access matter as well.
Booking your survey
You don’t need to know any roofing terms. Just let us know:
- Any stains, drips or damp patches you’ve seen indoors
- Dates you are working to, such as exchange
- Your postcode, so we can check access and travel
- Access details, like a loft hatch or a shared roof
Once you know what you need, phone 07833 053749 or drop us an email. From there it’s a case of choosing a package, agreeing the price and fixing a day.
Church Crookham roofs and the weather
Historic houses such as Farnham Castle, about 3.5 miles south, show how far back building in the area around Church Crookham goes. Period homes nearby can have lead valleys, tall chimneys and a patchwork of past repairs, and any change of roofing material on a listed home needs checking with the council first. Thatch survives on some older buildings in Hampshire’s villages. Across the South East, older homes tend to have slate or clay tiles, and many later ones concrete tiles. Each of these roof types has its own typical places for water to get in.
If you own a rental within reach of Fleet station, a clear finding on where water gets in helps you brief a roofer straight away. If you run a business near Hart Shopping Centre, a leak can close part of a shop or office, so finding the cause quickly matters. For an older house near a landmark such as Fleet Spiritualist Church, the leak may come from a chimney, a valley or tired lead rather than the covering itself.

How the survey changes by roof type
Lead flashings
Wind can peel back flashings at abutments and stacks. We record which are loose or damaged.
Ridge and hip tiles
Ridge and hip tiles take the full force of the wind. We record any that have lifted, cracked or come away.
What happens if roof problems are left?
Once the storm has passed, damage that looked minor can let water in for months. Acting quickly usually means less damage overall. Where a roof is exposed, as many are in small places like Church Crookham, driving rain gets into any weakness, and older walls, once damp, take a long time to dry.
The Premium Survey includes thermal imaging and drone inspection where it applies, which starts from £400, with VAT included. We can help you choose the package that fits what you’d like to know.
