What a storm damage roof report looks like in Cockpole Green
Historic houses such as Harleyford Manor, about 2.7 miles north-east, show how far back building in the area around Cockpole Green goes. On older houses around here, roofs frequently carry the marks of earlier repairs, from replaced slates to new lead. Across the South East, older homes tend to have slate or clay tiles, and many later ones concrete tiles, with flat-roofed extensions, dormers and garages common everywhere. Different coverings let water in at different points, which shapes where the search starts.
Landlords with a home close to Shiplake station may find that a tenant living with a leak needs the cause found, not just the stain painted over. Take a building like Crazies Hill CofE Primary School: water through a big roof can travel a long way before it drips, so the search covers more than the obvious spot.

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. Each area of damage is photographed, and the report is yours to pass on. Insurers decide claims on their own policy wording.

What else we do in Cockpole Green
Surveys for landlords and agents in Cockpole Green
We also survey roofs for businesses and commercial landlords, from shops and offices to industrial units. Bigger roofs take more time, so they’re priced to suit.
An agent can book and manage the survey for a landlord, with the report sent to whoever needs it. Access is agreed with the tenant in advance.
The survey, step by step
Every roof is different, but as a rough guide the survey takes an hour or two for most homes, depending on how much of the roof was hit. If you have questions on the day, just ask. Somewhere like Cockpole Green needs a little journey planning: let us know about lanes, gates and parking. The roof is looked at from ground level, from windows, from the loft where there is safe access and from the roof where it’s safe.
- We start with what you’ve seen and any temporary repairs.
- We check inside, including the loft where there is access, for water damage.
- We view the roof from safe positions.
- Storm damage and older wear are recorded separately where we can.
- The report, with photos, is emailed to you.
Preparing for the visit
- For a flat or shared roof, check access with the building owner or managing agent
- Clear the way to the loft hatch
- Check we can get to the back of the property
Getting a price

Advice
Should I look at the roof myself first?
Inside, the loft is a good place to look, with care. Take a torch and only step on boards or joists, checking for stains, damp wood or chinks of daylight.
Your own check is a good start, but it is not a survey. You won’t see flashings, valleys or the backs of chimneys properly from the ground, and those are details a survey looks at closely.
Do you need a storm damage roof report in Cockpole Green?
Some people book because a claim has been questioned. You get an independent record of what the roof shows. We cannot say whether the decision will change.
A survey can pick up problems such as:
- Gaps where slates or tiles have gone
- Stains appearing after strong winds
- Torn or lifted flat roof coverings
- Ridge tiles that have come loose
Take an older house close to St Paul's Mission Church: lead flashings, valleys and old chimneys are typical places for water to get in.
Before booking any roof surveyor
- What exactly goes into their report
- Whether VAT is in the quoted price
- Is there a chance to talk the report through?
- Whether the inside of the roof is included
Different roofs, different checks
Ridge and hip tiles
A lifted ridge tile can let water into the roof. Each one is recorded with photos.
Chimney stacks
Flashings around stacks can lift in strong winds. Loose flashings are recorded.
Why get it checked now?
If a roofer needs to make the roof safe, take photos first if you can do so safely from the ground. Those photos show the damage as it was. Around Cockpole Green, older homes frequently have old roof timbers, where water from a failed roof can cause rot if it’s left.
Every price we give includes VAT. Our price is from £150, including VAT. You will know the exact price before booking.
