Curteis' Corner questions
Do you cover smaller places like Curteis' Corner?
Yes, smaller places are covered as well as towns. We work right across London and South East England. Just mention lanes, gates or anything else about the route when you book.
Does a conservation area affect roof work in Curteis' Corner?
Check Historic England’s online list first, then ask the council about conservation areas and any Article 4 direction. The answer matters most when a change of material is on the cards.
Is it the same as a RICS Level 2 or Level 3 survey?
No. This is a survey of the roof only, and it is not a RICS Level 2 or Level 3 survey. It can sit alongside a RICS survey if you want both.
Can you survey a shared roof?
Yes, if the freeholder or managing agent agrees access. We check the parts we’re given access to, and the report makes that clear.
Can you tell me if my roof has asbestos?
No. Asbestos surveys and testing are not part of what we do. We flag materials that could contain asbestos, such as cement sheets or soffits on pre-2000 buildings, and recommend a specialist asbestos surveyor checks them before they’re disturbed.
How long have you been surveying roofs?
Over 5,000 surveys so far, across 20+ years of surveying roofs, with 98% customer satisfaction.
Should I go up on the roof to take photos?
Please don’t climb onto the roof. Take photos from the ground or from windows. Record the date and any damage inside as well.
Storm damage roof report in Curteis' Corner: what you get
A storm damage roof report is an independent record of the damage to your roof after a storm. It sets out what is damaged, with photographs, and what we think the likely cause is. It’s yours to pass to your insurer. The decision on any claim rests with your insurer and its policy wording. We’re not loss adjusters, and we can’t tell you whether a claim will succeed. If you’ve noticed loose or torn flashings and damage from fallen branches or debris, a survey will tell you what’s going on.
Roofs in small places like Curteis' Corner often stand in the open, where storms hit ridges, verges and chimneys hardest. Once water gets into older walls, it takes a long time to dry, so it pays to find the cause quickly. A record with photos is useful if you need to show the damage to anyone else.
Pictures do a lot of the work in our reports, so you can see each defect rather than just read about it. Anything out of sight on the day is listed as such.

When to book a survey in Curteis' Corner
Some people book because a claim has been questioned. An independent report gives you another view of the roof. What happens next is up to the insurer.
These are some of the problems a survey can pick up:
- Torn or lifted flat roof coverings
- Damaged gutters and fascias
- Ridge tiles that have come loose
- Slipped or missing slates or tiles
If your house is among the older ones in the streets near Parish Church of All Saints, lead flashings, valleys and old chimneys are typical places for water to get in.
Questions to ask before booking
- Which viewpoints they use to see the roof
- If they fly a drone, whether they hold a CAA Flyer ID and Operator ID
- How long the report takes to arrive
- Their track record with similar roofs
For landlords and managing agents
Roof problems in a rented home affect tenants as well as the building. A survey shows what needs attention, so you can plan the work with less disruption.
We also survey roofs for businesses and commercial landlords. Bigger roofs take more time, and they’re priced for the size.
Checking the roof from the ground
Fresh stains on ceilings or walls after rain are worth noting. Take a photo and write down when you saw it, as it helps a surveyor trace the cause.
Look up at the roof after a storm, from the ground: broken slates or tiles in the garden, gaps along the ridge or loose lead are signs to note. Leave anything above ground level to a survey.
What this survey cannot tell you
Every survey has limits, and it’s better to know them up front. Keep these in mind:
- A price for the repairs
- Damage hidden under coverings or inside the structure, without opening up
- Negotiating a claim settlement

How the survey works
Every visit follows the same pattern: we listen to what’s been worrying you, look at the roof from every safe viewpoint, photograph what we find and record our findings for the written report. Most visits take an hour or two on an ordinary house, with bigger or more complicated roofs taking longer. Older rural homes like those around Curteis' Corner 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 cannot see is noted.
- We start with what you’ve seen and any temporary repairs.
- Inside, we look for signs of water in the loft and rooms below.
- We view the roof from safe positions.
- We record fresh damage and older defects.
- The report, with photos, is emailed to you.
Getting ready for the survey
- For a flat or shared roof, check access with the freeholder or managing agent
- Buyers: confirm access with the estate agent or seller
- Unlock side gates and any roof access doors

What a storm damage roof report looks like in Curteis' Corner
Listing and conservation areas can both shape what roof work is allowed on an older home. Your council and Historic England’s list will tell you where you stand. Older houses across Kent often have handmade clay or peg tiles, and many have tile-hung walls. You will also find oast houses and timber-framed Wealden hall houses among the county’s older buildings. Different coverings let water in at different points, which shapes where the search starts.
For site and facilities teams at buildings such as John Mayne Church of England Primary School, water through a big roof can travel a long way before it drips, so the search covers more than the obvious spot. Landlords with a home close to Headcorn station may find that a clear finding on where water gets in helps you brief a roofer straight away.
