Your questions about storm damage roof reports in Easton
Is Easton within the area you cover?
Yes, Easton is on our map. A small place gets exactly the same survey as a big one, with the route planned beforehand.
How do I find out if my home in Easton is listed?
Start with Historic England’s list for listing and your council for conservation areas. It’s worth checking before planning roof work, as both can affect what’s allowed.
Do you need to get into the loft?
If there is a loft and safe access to it, yes. From inside, the underside of the roof often shows damp, staining or daylight that can’t be seen from outside.
Can you tell me if my roof has asbestos?
No. We do not carry out asbestos surveys or testing. 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.
Can you tell me if my claim will be paid?
That is not something we can promise. The decision rests with your insurer and its policy. Our report gives you an independent record of the damage and its likely cause.
How do I arrange a storm damage roof report in Easton?
To arrange a survey, ring 07833 053749 or email us and tell us the address and what you need to know. We will confirm the price and agree a day with you.
Can you survey a shared roof?
Yes, as long as access is agreed. Roofs over flats are frequently shared, so the building owner or managing agent needs to agree access. We can only inspect what we’re given access to.
Storm damage roof report in Easton: what you get
Storms tend to find the weak points on a roof. Typical damage includes lost slates and tiles, lifted ridges, loose flashings and torn flat roof coverings. Falling branches can cause damage too. Our report records what has happened to your roof, with photos. Any older wear we can see is recorded as well. If you’ve noticed slipped or missing slates or tiles and loose or torn flashings, we can find out what’s behind it, whatever the roof.
For a small place like Easton, the inspection is the same as anywhere: we simply plan the journey and access ahead. It’s useful 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 is yours to share with whoever needs it: a seller or estate agent, an insurer, a roofer, a builder or a managing agent, whichever applies.

DIY checks: what’s safe
Watch the gutters in a downpour, from a window or the ground. Water spilling over the edge can be a sign of a blockage or a gutter that has dropped.
It helps to keep a record: when leaks happen, ground-level photos and any past roof work. Send it with your enquiry and it will help the survey.
What happens on the day
The aim of the visit is simple: to see as much of the roof as can be seen safely and record it clearly. Notes and photographs go into the written report. The visit normally takes between one and two hours for most homes, depending on how much of the roof was hit. Rural addresses near Easton can be hard to find from a postcode alone, so a few directions are welcome. After that, the survey runs as it would anywhere.
- We start with the details: when the storm hit and what damage you can see.
- We inspect the roof from safe viewpoints and from the loft where there’s access.
- We photograph and record every area of damage we can see.
- We note the likely cause, including any signs of wear that were there before the storm.
- The findings are written up with photographs for you to share with your insurer.
How to prepare
- Jot down any questions you want answered
- Have any paperwork from past roof work to hand
- Keep pets in another room
How to book
Getting a price is simple: just call 07833 053749 or email us, let us know about the property and we’ll explain which survey suits. We confirm the price before anything is booked.
Advice
How the survey changes by roof type
Lead flashings
Old flashings that were already loose can give way in a storm. We record what looks recent and what looks older.
Flat roof coverings
Branches and debris can damage flat roofs or block outlets. We record what we find.
Leaks and storm damage in Easton
Benham Park, about 3.1 miles south-east, is one of the historic houses in the wider area around Easton. Older homes in the wider area often have features worth a closer look, like lead valleys, tall stacks and roofs that have been patched over the years, and the council can say whether a home is in a conservation area. In this part of the South East, older roofs are mostly slate or clay tile and many newer ones concrete tile, and flat-roofed additions turn up almost everywhere. The covering and its details give the first clues when tracing where water is coming from.
If you let a flat or house near Kintbury station, tracing a leak quickly matters when a tenant is living with it. Take an older house close to Church of St Gregory: old mortar, worn lead and slipped slates are the usual suspects when water gets in.
