Why it is worth a survey now in Damerham
A clear, independent record helps you explain the damage to your insurer. It sets out what we found and the likely cause, so you are not relying only on your own photos. Where a roof is exposed, as many are in small places like Damerham, driving rain gets into any weakness, and damp in older walls is slow to dry out.
A Basic Survey starts from £150, inc. VAT. Standard is from £250 and Premium from £400. You will know the price for your survey before booking.
Why book with us
- Drone and thermal imaging surveys available
- Independent findings on the roof’s condition
- Professional indemnity and public liability insurance
- Clear package prices, with VAT included

Storm damage roof reports for homes and businesses in Damerham
The Financial Ombudsman looks at three things when it considers a storm damage complaint: whether there were storm conditions around the date, whether the damage fits a storm, and whether the storm was the main cause. We record what the roof shows about the damage and its likely cause. You or your insurer can check the weather for the date. We survey flat roofs, chimney stacks and gutters and fascias, and people most often book us about damaged ridges and hips and slates and tiles blown off the roof.
Being in a small place like Damerham makes no difference to how a leak or storm damage is looked at: the journey and access are just planned beforehand. It helps to know where the water appears, in what weather, and what you’ve seen outside, plus any earlier repairs. Photographs of the stain and of the roof from outside are helpful too.
The report does not just list problems. It explains what we found, why it matters and what we recommend, so you can plan your next steps.

What else we do in Damerham
DIY checks: what’s safe
Inside, the loft is a good place to look, with care. Use a torch and stay on the joists or boards, and look for staining, damp timber or daylight coming through.
Keep a simple record: when leaks happen, ground-level photos and any past roof work. Share it with us when you book.
Damerham questions
Does a conservation area affect roof work in Damerham?
We cannot confirm that for you, but Historic England’s list and your council can. A change of roofing material may need consent in either case, and councils can also use Article 4 directions.
Is Damerham within the area you cover?
Yes, smaller places are covered as well as towns. We survey roofs across London and the South East. Let us know about access, parking and anything unusual about getting there as you book.
What does a storm damage report cost?
A storm damage report starts from £150. Larger roofs are quoted for their size. The report doesn’t include repair costs.
Does your report mean my claim will be accepted?
Only your insurer can decide that. We record the damage, with photos and the likely cause, which you can pass to your insurer.
Do you use drones?
Yes, where it applies and safe. We fly a sub-250g drone and we are a CAA-registered drone operator (Flyer ID and Operator ID). It’s included in the Drone Roof Survey and, where applicable, the Premium Survey.
How long does the survey take?
Time on site depends on the roof; most visits take roughly 1–2 hours for most homes, depending on how much of the roof was hit. The written report follows by email.
Does someone need to be in?
If the survey includes the loft or the inside of the building, someone needs to let us in. We will talk about access when booking.
For landlords and managing agents
Shared roofs need a little more planning: access has to be agreed with whoever owns or manages the building. Mention it when you get in touch and we will plan the visit with that in mind.
If you own several properties, you can book surveys for several addresses. To discuss a number of properties, call 07833 053749 or email us.
Wind, rain and roofs in Damerham
Breamore House, about 3.5 miles north-east, is one of the historic houses in the wider area around Damerham. Period homes nearby can have lead valleys, tall chimneys and a patchwork of past repairs. Thatch survives on some older buildings in Hampshire’s villages. Across the South East, older homes tend to have slate or clay tiles, and many later ones concrete tiles. Different coverings let water in at different points, which shapes where the search starts.
If you own one of the older houses in the streets near Church of St George, the leak may come from a chimney, a valley or tired lead rather than the covering itself.

Before and after the survey
A little preparation and a few simple habits help. Our tips:
- Keep invoices for temporary repairs
- Take photos from the ground or a window, never by climbing
- Keep a note of the date of the storm
- Check how your policy defines a storm
If anything in the report is not clear, just ask us. Standard Surveys come with a follow-up consultation, and Premium Surveys with an in-person one.
Ask a tree specialist about branches over the roof. They can damage the roof in high winds.
What we look for on each type of roof
Lead flashings
Old flashings that were already loose can give way in a storm. We record what looks recent and what looks older.
Slate roofs
Slates often outlast the nails that hold them. The report records whether slipped slates look like storm damage or older wear.
How it works
When we arrive, we begin with a quick chat about the roof and anything that is worrying you. We then inspect everything that can be seen safely, using the ground, windows, the loft and a drone where it applies. The survey usually takes roughly 1–2 hours at a house, and longer if the damage is spread across a large roof. In a small place like Damerham, access is typically 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.
- You let us know what happened and whether a roofer has made the roof safe.
- 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
- Have keys ready for side gates, garages or roof access doors
- For flats, check roof access has been agreed
- Move anything stored under the loft hatch
