Your questions about storm damage roof reports in East End
Do you carry out roof surveys in East End?
We do. Every survey there gets the same written report with photos, and visits run on weekdays and weekends.
Is my home in East End listed or in a conservation area?
We can’t confirm that for you, but Historic England’s list and your council can. Both listing and conservation areas can limit changes of roofing material.
Are you loss adjusters?
No. We’re not loss adjusters, and we do not negotiate claims. We give you an independent report of the damage, which you can pass to your insurer.
Can you inspect my roof with a drone?
Where it helps and the rules allow, yes. Our sub-250g drone is flown by a CAA-registered operator with a Flyer ID and Operator ID, and the airspace and weather are checked before every flight.
Should I go up on the roof to take photos?
Please do not climb onto the roof. Photograph the damage from below or from a window. Record the date and any damage inside as well.
Which days do you carry out surveys?
We survey on any day from Monday to Sunday, during the day, which suits people who work during the week. Let us know your preferred days as you book.
Can you tell me if my roof has asbestos?
No. Asbestos surveys and testing aren’t part of what we do. If we see materials that could contain asbestos, such as cement roof sheets or soffits on buildings from before 2000, we flag them and suggest a specialist asbestos surveyor checks them before any work.
Storm damage roof report in East End
Wear and tear is normally excluded from home insurance. So it matters whether the damage came from the storm or from a roof that was already worn. Our report records both: fresh breaks and recently moved slates or tiles, and older problems like corroded nails or worn mortar. We give an honest view of what we see. How the policy applies is for your insurer to decide. If you’re worried about roofs hit by falling trees and stains appearing after strong winds, we can find out what’s behind it.
For a small place like East End, the inspection is the same as anywhere: we simply plan the journey and access ahead. Let us know where the water shows, when it appears and anything you’ve noticed outside, plus any earlier repairs. Photos of the stain and of the roof from outside are helpful too.
Where we can’t see part of the roof, the report says so. You will know exactly what was inspected and what wasn’t.

Why it’s worth a survey now in East End
If a roofer needs to make the roof safe, take photos first if you can do so safely from the ground. Those photos show the damage as it was. In a place like East End, a barn or garage roof left to fail puts whatever is inside at risk. A quick look before winter can save a lot.
We offer three survey packages: Basic from £150, Standard from £250 and Premium from £400, all inc. VAT. The price for your roof depends on its size, access and what you want to find out.

Can I check my roof myself?
The one thing to avoid is getting up close. Roofs are fragile and slippery, and a fall can be serious. That part is for a survey.
Look up at the roof after a storm, from ground level: broken slates or tiles in the garden, gaps along the ridge or loose lead are signs to note. Don’t go up yourself.
What a storm damage roof report looks like in East End
Cotswold stone slates are found on older buildings in west Oxfordshire, and thatch survives in some of the county’s villages. In this part of the South East, older roofs are mostly slate or clay tile and many newer ones concrete tile. Knowing the roof type helps narrow down where water may be getting in. Historic houses like Blenheim Palace, about 2.7 miles east, show how far back building in the area around East End goes. Period homes nearby can have lead valleys, tall chimneys and a patchwork of past repairs, and any change of roofing material on a listed home needs checking with the council first.
If you look after a building such as Combe CofE Primary School, tracing a leak on a big roof starts with where the water appears and works back. If you let a flat or house near Combe station, tracing a leak quickly matters when a tenant is living with it. The streets around a church like St Mary's Church are frequently among the oldest in a place, and if yours is one of the older homes nearby, old mortar, worn lead and slipped slates are the usual suspects when water gets in.

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. It typically takes roughly 1–2 hours at a house, and longer if the damage is spread across a large roof. Somewhere like East End needs a little journey planning: let us know about lanes, gates and parking. The roof is looked at from ground level, from windows, from the loft where there’s safe access and from the roof where it’s safe.
- You tell us 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.
Before the survey
- Dig out any old roof reports or invoices
- If you are buying, check with the agent that we can get in
- Note where any stains or damp appear

A missing tile lets rain reach the underlay. We photograph each gap.
