Storm damage roof reports for homes and businesses in Denton
Storms tend to find the weak points on a roof. Slates and tiles slip or blow off, ridge and hip tiles lift, flashings pull away and flat roof coverings can tear. Trees and branches can also hit roofs in a storm. Our report records what has happened to your roof, with photos. Any older wear we can see is recorded as well. We survey flat roofs, slate and tile slopes and gutters and fascias, and people most frequently book us about holes or cracks caused by debris and damaged ridges and hips.
Many homes in small places like Denton face open ground, so storms hit ridges, verges and chimneys hard. Once water gets into older walls, it takes a long time to dry, which makes finding the cause quickly worthwhile. A written record also helps if you need to explain it to anyone else.
How fast the report arrives depends on the package: the Basic Survey within 48 hours, the Standard Survey in 24 to 48 hours and the Premium Survey on the same day.

How the survey changes by roof type
Flat roof coverings
Edge trims and laps are often where flat roof coverings start to peel back. We look at whether the damage is recent or older.
Clay and concrete tiles
A missing tile lets rain reach the underlay. Each gap is recorded with a photo.

We also survey roofs for businesses and commercial landlords, from shops and offices to industrial units. Bigger roofs take more time, so they’re priced to suit.
Leave it or get it looked at?
A few slipped slates can soon lead to wet timbers. Acting quickly normally means less damage overall. Older cottages and farmhouses around Denton 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.

What happens on the day
You do not need to do much on the day. Point out anything you’ve noticed, such as stains, drips or loose pieces, and we will take it from there. A typical survey takes roughly 1–2 hours for most homes, depending on how much of the roof was hit. Around Denton, older homes can have small or awkward roof spaces, so it’s useful to know whether there’s a loft hatch and how easy it is to reach. We only go where it’s safe.
- We start with what you’ve seen and any temporary repairs.
- We check inside, including the loft where there’s access, for water damage.
- The roof is inspected from ground level, windows and the roof where it’s safe.
- Storm damage and older wear are recorded separately where we can.
- The report, with photos, is emailed to you.

Storm damage roof reports around Denton
The wider area around Denton has a long history of building, with Garsington Manor about 0.9 miles south-west. 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. Cotswold stone slates are found on older buildings in west Oxfordshire, and thatch survives in some of the county’s villages. Older houses in the South East often have slate or clay tile roofs, while many later estates have concrete tiles. Different coverings let water in at different points, which shapes where the search starts.
If you look after a shop, office or commercial unit, for instance near Templars Square, finding where water is getting in quickly keeps disruption down. Landlords with a home close to Radley station may find that tracing a leak quickly matters when a tenant is living with it. For an older house near a landmark like Church of All Saints, the leak may come from a chimney, a valley or tired lead rather than the covering itself.

Tips from our surveys
Nothing here needs a ladder. A few suggestions:
- Hold on to fallen pieces of the roof where you can
- Tell your insurer about the damage promptly
- Keep receipts for any emergency work
- Read your policy wording on storm damage
If you are unhappy with how your insurer handles the claim, you can complain to them first. After that, you may be able to take it to the Financial Ombudsman Service.
Clear gutters and outlets before the stormy months. Overflowing gutters can make storm damage worse.
