Storm damage roof report in Curling Tye Green
When a storm has damaged your roof, a written record can help you explain it to your insurer. Our report shows the damage in photos and says whether it looks like storm damage, wear and tear, or a mix. We are not loss adjusters and can’t tell you if your claim will succeed. What we give you is an independent record of the roof. We survey chimney stacks, ridges and hips and gutters and fascias, and common reasons people get in touch are ridge tiles that have come loose and damaged gutters and fascias.
For a small place like Curling Tye Green, the inspection is the same as anywhere: the journey and access are just planned in advance. Let us know where the water shows, when it appears and anything you’ve noticed outside, along with any repairs done before. If you have photos of the water coming in, they help as well.
If any part of the roof couldn’t be seen safely, we say so in the report. That way, it’s clear what was covered and what wasn’t.

Curling Tye Green roofs and the weather
The coast is about 3 miles or less from Curling Tye Green, so there’s more wind and more salt in the air than further inland. Driving rain off the sea can be pushed into gaps that stay dry in calmer weather, and salt air slowly wears metal fixings. Clay tiles and timber weatherboarding mark out many of the older buildings in Essex, and lots of post-war and modern estates besides. Knowing the roof type helps narrow down where water may be getting in.
For site and facilities teams at buildings like Plume School, a leak through a large roof is often found some distance from where the water shows inside. If you own a rental within reach of Hatfield Peverel station, finding the cause of a leak fast keeps a tenant’s home dry and the work focused.

How we price storm damage roof reports
Prices vary from roof to roof, for these reasons:
- The package you choose: Basic, Standard or Premium
- How tall the building is and how easy the roof is to see
- Whether it’s a home or a commercial building
- The shape of the roof and its details
A small, low roof with good viewpoints takes less time than a tall, complicated one, and the package matters as well. We’ll give you the figure before anything is booked.
What we need to know
We will normally ask about:
- Pictures of the roof from a safe spot, if you have them
- Any marks or damp showing indoors
- Why you want a survey: buying, a leak, a storm or new work
- Dates you are working to, like exchange
Every survey is priced before it is booked, so you know the cost up front. Our price is from £150, including VAT. For a price for your roof, call 07833 053749 or send us an email.
What we are asked to look at in Curling Tye Green
Strong winds lift loose or poorly fixed slates and tiles, ridge pieces and flashings. Driving rain then gets in through the gaps. Most people book a report soon after a storm, when they’ve seen damage or water has come in.
Things that frequently lead to a survey include:
- Loose or broken chimney pots and cowls
- Damaged gutters and fascias
- Flat roof edges peeled back
- Stains appearing after strong winds
With Danbury Place about 3.8 miles west, the area around Curling Tye Green has a long history. On older roofs nearby, leaks often trace back to lead flashings, valleys and gutters.
Before booking any roof surveyor
- Do they have a CAA Flyer ID and Operator ID for drone work?
- How long the report takes to arrive
- Whether VAT is in the quoted price
- What the report includes, and whether it has photos
What we do, step by step
Every visit follows the same pattern: we hear what you’ve seen, inspect the roof from each safe vantage point, photograph what we find and record our findings for the written report. Most visits take roughly 1–2 hours for a house, rising to roughly 3–4 hours on a commercial building. Older rural homes like those around Curling Tye Green can have a main roof, lower lean-to roofs and outbuildings all joined together. We work round each section in turn, from the safest viewpoints, and anything we can’t see is noted.
- 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.
- Each area of damage is photographed and described.
- The likely cause is recorded, along with any evidence of older wear.
- The findings are written up with photographs for you to share with your insurer.
Before we arrive
- Buyers: confirm access with the estate agent or seller
- Clear the way to the loft hatch
- Agree roof access with the managing agent if it’s shared

Common questions in Curling Tye Green
Is my home in Curling Tye Green listed or in a conservation area?
Start with Historic England’s list for listing and your council for conservation areas. Either can affect what roof work is allowed, so it’s worth checking before planning any.
Is the coastal weather around Curling Tye Green hard on roofs?
Places near the sea get more wind and more salt in the air than inland, and both are hard on roofs. Salt corrodes metal fixings and flashings, and wind lifts loose slates, tiles and ridge pieces.
Can I check the roof after a storm?
Only from the ground or from windows. Never climb onto a roof after a storm. With binoculars, you can see a lot from the ground, and we will record the rest.
Will you walk on the roof?
Only if it’s safe. We inspect whatever is safely visible: from ground level, from windows and vantage points, from the roof space, from the roof itself where safe and by drone where applicable. Anything we cannot see is noted in the report.
Who handles emergency protection after a storm?
Emergency temporary protection is a job for a roofer. If it’s safe, take photos before it goes on. We can record the damage in our report.
Do you test for asbestos?
No. We do not sample or test for asbestos. Where a material might contain it, such as old cement sheets on a building from before 2000, the report flags it.
Do you survey on Saturdays and Sundays?
Surveys run seven days a week. To find a day that suits you, call 07833 053749 or drop us an email.
Different roofs, different checks
Clay and concrete tiles
Tiles without fixings can move more easily in wind. We record what we can see of the fixings.
Slate roofs
After strong winds, we often see cracked and slipped slates. We photograph and describe each one.
Practical tips
Most of what helps is simple and safe from the ground. Our suggestions:
- Keep a note of the date of the storm
- Photograph damage inside the house too
- Report the damage to your insurer as soon as you can
- File receipts for anything you pay for
If anything in the report isn’t clear, just ask us. The Standard Survey includes a follow-up consultation and the Premium Survey an in-person consultation.
