How a storm damage roof report works in Crondall
If your roof has been damaged, stay safe first. Take photos from the ground or from windows, and don’t climb onto the roof. Emergency temporary protection, like covering an opening, is a job for a roofer. Our report records the damage so you have an independent record to give your insurer. Keep receipts for any emergency work. We survey ridges and hips, flashings and gutters and fascias, and people most often book us about ridge tiles that have come loose and loose or broken chimney pots and cowls.
Somewhere as small as Crondall, older roofs have frequently been repaired many times. A new leak may be fresh damage or the latest sign of long-term wear, and the difference matters, particularly to an insurer. We look at what can be seen safely and set out what we find. Damp in old walls and timbers is slow to dry, so the sooner the cause is found the better.
What you get is a clear record of the roof on the day we saw it. It is useful straight away, and a good reference for later, like when you want to compare after future work.

What this survey can’t tell you
This is not a RICS building survey, a structural engineer’s report or an asbestos survey. It also has these limits:
- Your insurer’s view of the claim
- Negotiating a claim settlement
- Whether your insurer will pay the claim
If you’re not sure which survey you need, phone 07833 053749 or use the contact form and we will give you a straight answer before you book. What a survey covers and does not.
What we look at
- Chimney stacks
- Gutters and fascias
- Flat roofs
- Ridges and hips
- Slate and tile slopes
- Flashings
How the survey works
Where it’s relevant and can be reached safely, the loft space is checked as well as the outside. Inside, we look for staining, damp, gaps and signs of movement. The whole visit usually takes an hour or two at a house, and longer if the damage is spread across a large roof. Somewhere like Crondall 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 ground level, from windows, from the loft where there is safe access and from the roof where it is safe.
- You tell us what happened and whether a roofer has made the roof safe.
- Inside, we look for signs of water in the loft and rooms below.
- The roof is inspected from ground level, windows and the roof where it’s safe.
- We record fresh damage and older defects.
- You receive the written report with photographs.
Before we arrive
- Move anything stored under the loft hatch
- Note where any stains or damp appear
- Make a note of anything you’d like us to look at

DIY checks: what’s safe
What you cannot do safely is get up close. Slates, tiles, flat roofs and rooflights can give way. That part is for a survey, using safe viewpoints and a drone where applicable.
After strong wind, take a look from the pavement or garden: pieces of tile or slate on the ground, a gap in the ridge or a lifted flashing are all worth noting. Do not go up yourself.
Do you need a storm damage roof report in Crondall?
Insurers frequently want evidence of what has been damaged and why. A written report with photos gives you something clear to pass on. The decision still rests with the insurer.
Things that often lead to a survey include:
- Cowls or aerials dislodged in the wind
- Stains appearing after strong winds
- Damaged gutters and fascias
- Torn or lifted flat roof coverings
If you let a flat or house near Farnham station, a tenant living with a leak needs the cause found, not just the stain painted over.
Questions to ask before booking
- Whether you can ask questions once you have the report
- Whether they hold professional indemnity and public liability insurance
- How they plan to inspect the roof safely
- How long they’ve been surveying roofs
Common questions in Crondall

Is Crondall in the area you cover?

How long have you been surveying roofs?
More than 5,000 surveys over 20+ years, across London and South East England.
What’s the best way to book?
It is easiest to ring 07833 053749 or use the contact form. Give us the address and some details about the roof. Surveys run on any day of the week.
Do you use drones?
Yes, where it’s applicable. We hold a CAA Flyer ID and Operator ID and fly a drone under 250g, and the airspace and weather are checked before every flight.
Can you tell me if my claim will be paid?
That is not something we can promise. The decision rests with your insurer and its policy. Our report gives you an independent record of the damage and its likely cause.
Do you survey roofs on blocks of flats?
Yes, once whoever controls the roof agrees access. On a shared roof we can only inspect the parts we’re allowed to reach.
Leave it or get it looked at?
With an independent report, you have something specific to show your insurer. It sets out what we found and the likely cause, so you’re not relying only on your own photos. Older and listed buildings around Crondall may need consent and matching materials for repairs, so leaving a defect until it’s urgent leaves less time to plan.
Prices quoted always include VAT, and the report is not charged as an extra. Our price is from £150, including VAT. Where your roof sits in the range depends on its size, height and access.

Crondall roofs and the weather
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. Different coverings let water in at different points, which shapes where the search starts. Farnham Castle, about 2.7 miles east, is one of the historic houses in the wider area around Crondall. 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 the council can say whether a home is in a conservation area.
If you run a business near Hart Shopping Centre, a quick answer on where water is coming in keeps a business running. If you look after a building such as Crondall Primary School, on a building that size, finding the source of a drip means looking well beyond the stain.
