Storm damage roof report in Cuddington

When a storm has damaged your roof, a written record can help you explain it to your insurer. We photograph the damage, describe it and note whether it fits storm damage, older wear or both. We are not loss adjusters and cannot tell you if your claim will succeed. What we give you is an independent record of the roof. We survey ridges and hips, chimney stacks and flat roofs, and common reasons people get in touch are flat roof edges peeled back and roofs hit by falling trees.

Being in a small place like Cuddington makes no difference to how a leak or storm damage is looked at: the journey and access are just planned beforehand. Tell us where the water shows, when it appears and anything you’ve noticed outside, plus any earlier repairs. Photos of the stain and of the roof from outside are helpful too.

You can share the report with anyone who needs it: a seller or estate agent, an insurer, a roofer, a builder or a managing agent.

What we do, step by step

After the inspection, everything we found is written up as a written report with photos, emailed to you. On timing, it normally takes an hour or two at most homes, and longer for a large or complex roof. In a small place like Cuddington, access is normally the main thing to plan. Let us know about outbuildings, past repairs and any leaks you’ve noticed. Visits can be on weekdays, Saturdays or Sundays.

  1. We start with what you’ve seen and any temporary repairs.
  2. Inside, we look for signs of water in the loft and rooms below.
  3. The roof is inspected from the ground, windows and the roof where it is safe.
  4. Storm damage and older wear are recorded separately where we can.
  5. You receive the written report with photos.

Before the survey

  • Buyers: confirm access with the estate agent or seller
  • Unlock side gates and any roof access doors
  • Keep pets out of the way during the survey

FAQs for Cuddington

Is my home in Cuddington listed or in a conservation area?

The council and Historic England’s list are the places to check. Either can affect what roof work is allowed, so it is worth checking before planning any.

Is Cuddington in the area you cover?

Yes, Cuddington is within the area we cover. We survey roofs across London and South East England. You can ring 07833 053749 or send us an email with the address and some details, and we will talk through which survey suits.

Can you tell me if my claim will be paid?

We can’t say whether a claim will be paid. Insurers decide claims on their own policy wording. Our report gives you an independent record of the damage and its likely cause.

How do I arrange a storm damage roof report in Cuddington?

To book, ring 07833 053749 or use the contact form with the address, the type of property and what’s prompted the survey. We will confirm the price and agree a day with you.

Is there a set wind speed for storm damage?

It depends on your policy. Many use gusts of about 55 mph, but each policy sets its own definition. Check your policy wording.

What do I do if water is coming in?

Emergency cover over a damaged roof should be arranged with a roofer. Take photos from ground level first if it is safe. Keep receipts in case your insurer asks for them.

How experienced are you?

We have more than 20 years’ experience and have completed over 5,000 surveys.

Storm damage roof reports around Cuddington

In Surrey, older roofs are often 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. The wider area around Cuddington has a long history of building, with Nonsuch Mansion about 0.2 miles north-east. On older houses around here, roofs frequently carry the marks of earlier repairs, from replaced slates to new lead.

The streets around a church such as Church of St Dunstan are often among the oldest in a place, and if your house is among the older ones nearby, leaks on older roofs often start at lead flashings, valleys or around old chimney stacks. If you let a flat or house near Cheam station, a tenant living with a leak needs the cause found, not just the stain painted over.

Why act early in Cuddington

Knowing whether older wear played a part helps you understand your position. We record storm damage and older defects, so there are no surprises later. Older cottages and farmhouses around Cuddington can have roof timbers that have been there a very long time, where water from a failed roof can cause rot if it is left.

There are three survey packages: the Basic Survey from £150, the Standard Survey from £250 and the Premium Survey from £400, with VAT included. The price for your roof depends on its size, access and what you’d like to know.

For landlords and managing agents

Buyers’ agents can book surveys on behalf of their clients. Reports are emailed, so they’re easy to pass on, photographs included.

An agent can book and manage the survey for a landlord, and the report can go to both. Access is agreed with the tenant in advance.

When to book a survey in Cuddington

Roofs that were already worn are more likely to suffer in a storm. Corroded nails on slate roofs, worn mortar on ridges and old flashings can all give way. Our report notes both the storm damage and any older wear.

A survey can pick up problems like:

  • Damaged flat roof membrane
  • Lead lifted at abutments
  • Damage from fallen branches or debris
  • Gutters pulled loose in the wind

Shop and office owners around The Ashley Centre may find that a leak can close part of a shop or office, so finding the cause quickly matters.

Questions to ask before you book

  • Whether they hold professional indemnity and public liability insurance
  • Whether the loft is part of the inspection
  • Whether you get a written report with photos
  • What’s outside the scope of the survey

Useful tips for Cuddington property owners

Most of what helps is simple and safe from the ground. A few suggestions:

  • Don’t go onto the roof to take pictures
  • Check how your policy defines a storm
  • Check your policy for how to report damage
  • Photograph damage inside the house too

You get the report by email and pass it to your insurer yourself. It’s your record to use.

After a storm, look at the roof from the street or garden. Binoculars help you spot slipped slates or lifted ridges. Don’t go up a ladder to look.

What a survey costs

Several things affect the price of a survey:

  • Basic, Standard or Premium
  • House, block, shop or office
  • Features like valleys, chimneys, dormers and parapets
  • The height of the building and how the roof can be seen safely

Our price is from £150, including VAT. Basic starts from £150, Standard from £250 and Premium from £400, VAT included.

What we need to know

You don’t need to know any roofing terms. It’s enough to let us know:

  • Where water is showing inside, if it is
  • The address and postcode of the property
  • Photos of the roof, taken safely from the ground or a window
  • The kind of building and roof involved

We survey roofs on weekdays and at weekends. To find a date that works for you, ring 07833 053749 or drop us an email with the address and the days you’d prefer.
