About our storm damage roof report in East Clandon
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 we cannot say whether a claim will be paid. What we give you is an independent record of the roof. We survey chimney stacks, slate and tile slopes and gutters and fascias, and people most frequently book us about loose or torn flashings and cowls or aerials dislodged in the wind.
Many homes in small places like East Clandon face open ground, where storms hit ridges, verges and chimneys hardest. Damp in old stone, brick or timber walls is slow to dry out, which makes finding the cause quickly worthwhile. A record with photos is useful if you need to show the damage to anyone else.
How fast the report arrives depends on the package: Basic within 48 hours, Standard in 24–48 hours and Premium the same day.

What affects the price in East Clandon
When we price a survey, we consider:
- House, block, shop or office
- The use of thermal imaging or a drone
- The shape of the roof and its details
- Extra roofs, like extensions, dormers or garages
What a survey costs comes down to the roof itself: how big it is, how high it is, the number of separate roofs and how it can be reached and seen safely. Storm damage roof report starts from £150, including VAT.

- Any deadline, such as an exchange date
- Photos of the roof, taken safely from the ground or a window

Practical tips
Getting the most from a storm damage roof report starts before we arrive and carries on afterwards. Tips:
- Keep receipts for any emergency work
- Report the damage to your insurer as soon as you can
- Take photos from ground level or a window, never by climbing
- Hold on to fallen pieces of the roof where you can
If you’re unhappy with how your insurer handles the claim, you can complain to them first. If that doesn’t resolve it, the Financial Ombudsman Service may be able to help.
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.
FAQs for East Clandon
How do I find out if my home in East Clandon is listed?
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 East Clandon within the area you cover?
We do. Villages and rural addresses get the same survey as a town house, with the route planned beforehand.
How strong does the wind have to be for a storm claim?
There is no single figure. Many use gusts of about 55 mph, but each policy sets its own definition. Your policy document will say.
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 ground level and we’ll inspect the rest from safe positions.
Do you look in the roof space?
Where it’s relevant to the survey and there is safe access, yes. A clear path to the hatch helps, and if the loft can’t be reached safely, the report says so.
Who handles emergency protection after a storm?
A roofer should handle temporary protection. If it is safe, take photos before it goes on. We can record the damage in our report.
Can you tell me if my claim will be paid?
The decision is your insurer’s, not ours. Our report records what is damaged, with photos, and the likely cause, which you can pass to your insurer.
What we look for on each type of roof
Clay and concrete tiles
Tiles without fixings can move more easily in wind. We note what we can see of how tiles are fixed.
Flat roof coverings
Lifted trims and laps are common after a storm. We check whether the damage is recent or older.
Wind, rain and roofs in East Clandon
With Hatchlands Park about 0.5 miles north-east, East Clandon sits in an area with a long building history. 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, and a listed home or one in a conservation area may need consent for changes of material. Handmade clay tiles and tile-hung walls are typical of Surrey’s older houses. A few of Surrey’s oldest buildings have heavy Horsham stone slab roofs. Knowing the roof type helps narrow down where water may be getting in.
For site and facilities teams at buildings like Clandon CofE Aided Primary School, tracing a leak on a big roof starts with where the water appears and works back. Take an older house close to Church of St Thomas of Canterbury: water on an older roof tends to find its way in at the lead, the valleys or the chimney. Landlords with a home close to Clandon station may find that finding the cause of a leak fast keeps a tenant’s home dry and the work focused.

How it works
Once we’ve finished looking, we write up our findings as a report with photographs, emailed to you. On timing, it normally takes an hour or two at a house, and longer if the damage is spread across a large roof. Somewhere like East Clandon needs a little journey planning: tell us about narrow lanes, gates, long drives and where we can park. The roof is looked at from the ground, from windows, from the loft where there is safe access and from the roof where it is safe.
- You let us know what happened and whether a roofer has made the roof safe.
- We check inside, including the loft where there is access, for water damage.
- We view the roof from safe positions.
- Storm damage and older wear are recorded separately where we can.
- You receive the written report with photos.
Preparing for the visit
- Let us know about parking before the day
- Point out any leaks or damp patches
- Clear the way to the loft hatch
