Eden Park Storm Damage Roof Report
Wondering about the roof at a property in Eden Park? You can book a storm damage roof report in Eden Park and across Greater London, with plain-English findings.
- Damaged flat roof membrane
- Damage from fallen branches or debris
- Lifted or missing ridge and hip tiles
How the survey works
The visit has one job: to look at the roof as closely as is safe and record what we find. Everything we note and photograph goes into the written report. The visit normally takes about one to two hours at a typical home, though large, tall or awkward roofs take more time. In a London area like Eden Park, the main things to sort out are parking and access: tell us about permits, visitor bays or off-street space, which floor the property is on and how to get into the loft. On the day, the roof is looked at from the ground, from windows, from inside the loft space and from the roof where it’s safe.
- You tell us 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.
Preparing for the visit
- Keep pets out of the way during the survey
- Buyers: confirm access with the estate agent or seller
- Leave a clear route to the loft

Advice
About our storm damage roof report in Eden Park
If your roof has been damaged, stay safe first. Take photos from the ground or from windows, and don’t climb onto the roof. If water is coming in, a roofer can put temporary protection in place. We then record the damage in a report you can pass to your insurer. Keep receipts for any emergency work. We survey gutters and fascias, flat roofs and flashings, and common reasons people get in touch are lifted or missing ridge and hip tiles and gaps where slates or tiles have gone.
Many London homes are well over a century old and their roofs have been patched more than once. Insurers typically exclude wear and tear, so it helps to know whether damage is old or new. That’s as true in Eden Park as anywhere in London. Photographs and a written account give you something specific to show an insurer, a landlord or a roofer.
The report doesn’t just list problems. It explains what we found, why it matters and what we recommend, so you can plan your next steps.

Practical tips
Here are a few things we’d tell any owner, before and after a survey:
- File receipts for anything you pay for
- Do not go onto the roof to take pictures
- Check your policy for how to report damage
- Hold on to fallen pieces of the roof where you can
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.
Keep records of roof work and surveys. They can help show the roof was looked after.
What affects the price in Eden Park
Our packages start from £150, including VAT. What you pay for your roof depends on:
- Building height and the viewpoints available
- The size of the roof
- Commercial roofs and larger buildings
- Any need for thermal images or a drone flight
A small, low roof with good viewpoints takes less time than a tall, complicated one, and the package you pick makes a difference too. The price is always agreed first.
Getting in touch
We’ll typically ask about:
- Where any leaks, stains or damp patches show inside
- The type of building and roof, such as pitched or flat
- Any photos you have, taken from the ground or a window
- Your timetable, such as an exchange date
Our price is from £150, including VAT. The exact figure depends on the roof and the package, and you can call 07833 053749 or use the contact form to find out.
Why get it checked now?
Before temporary repairs, photograph the damage from the ground if it is safe. Those photos show the damage as it was. In a London terrace or conversion, a roof defect rarely stays your problem alone: failed flashings and blocked valley gutters can send water into more than one home. Dealing with it early is far less disruptive.
Larger roofs, taller buildings and commercial roofs take longer, so they’re priced to match. The price is confirmed before booking.
Why us?
- Customer satisfaction of 98%
- More than 5,000 surveys completed

What you can safely check yourself
Watch the gutters in a downpour, from a window or the ground. Overflowing water can point to a blockage or a sagging run.
A lot can be seen from ground level. Binoculars help you spot slipped slates or tiles, gaps along the ridge and a leaning stack. Please do not climb up for a closer look.
Leaks and storm damage in Eden Park
Outer London has lots of Victorian and Edwardian terraces with slate roofs, but also a great many interwar semis, often with hipped roofs in clay or concrete tiles. On a semi of that age, the small roofs over the bays, the hip tiles and any later dormer each need their own look. The covering and its details give the first clues when tracing where water is coming from. Bromley Palace, about 2.2 miles north-east, is one of the historic houses in the wider area around Eden Park. On older houses around here, roofs often carry the marks of earlier repairs, from replaced slates to new lead.
For businesses in and around places such as The Mall, a leak can close part of a shop or office, so finding the cause quickly matters. For site and facilities teams at buildings like Langley Park School for Boys, tracing a leak on a big roof starts with where the water appears and works back.

Do you need a storm damage roof report in Eden Park?
Storms do not only affect pitched roofs. Coverings can tear or peel back at the edges, and water can pond where outlets are blocked. We record what we find on flat and pitched roofs alike.
It is worth booking a survey if you’ve seen:
- Lifted or missing ridge and hip tiles
- Damaged pots on the stack
- Damaged gutters and fascias
- Water coming in after the storm
Living close to Millers Pond is pleasant, but mature trees mean leaves in gutters and valleys each autumn, so outlets and downpipes are worth watching.

Common questions in Eden Park
Is my home in Eden Park listed or in a conservation area?
The council and Historic England’s list are the places to check. Either can affect what roof work is allowed, so it’s worth checking before planning any.
Do you cover Eden Park?
Yes, Eden Park is within the area we cover. We work right across London and South East England. Just call 07833 053749 or email us and let us know about the property.
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.
Can you inspect my roof with a drone?
Yes, where it’s applicable. We hold a CAA Flyer ID and Operator ID and fly a drone under 250g, and the airspace and weather are checked before every flight.
What wind speed counts as a storm?
It varies by policy. About 55 mph is a common figure in many policies, but check your own wording.
Will you walk on the roof?
Only when it’s safe. Some roofs are too steep or fragile to walk on safely. Safe viewpoints, the loft and a drone where it applies let us see the rest.
Is this a RICS survey?
No. Our survey is a roof survey, not a RICS Level 2 or Level 3 survey of the whole building. It focuses on the roof and can sit alongside a RICS survey.
