Ewhurst Green roofs and the weather
In Surrey, older roofs are often handmade clay tile, with tile-hanging on many upper walls. A few of Surrey’s oldest buildings have heavy Horsham stone slab roofs. Where water gets in depends a good deal on what the roof is made of and how it’s detailed. If your home is older, it is worth knowing whether it’s listed or in a conservation area before planning roof work. Changes that affect a listed building’s special interest need listed building consent, and councils can also use Article 4 directions to control changes in conservation areas.
Anyone responsible for a site like Ewhurst CofE Aided Infant School will know that on a building that size, finding the source of a drip means looking well beyond the stain. If you let a flat or house near Ockley station, a tenant living with a leak needs the cause found, not just the stain painted over. If you live in an older home near Church of St Peter and St Paul, lead flashings, valleys and old chimneys are typical places for water to get in.

Storm damage roof report in Ewhurst Green
Our storm damage report gives you an independent, written record of how a storm has affected your roof. We record each area of damage, photograph it and note the likely cause. It is yours to pass to your insurer. The decision on any claim rests with your insurer and its policy wording. We’re not loss adjusters, and we cannot tell you whether a claim will succeed. Common reasons to book are damaged pots on the stack and torn or lifted flat roof coverings, across gutters and fascias, flashings and ridges and hips.
Somewhere as small as Ewhurst Green, older roofs have often been repaired many times. A new leak may be fresh damage or the latest sign of long-term wear, and the difference matters, particularly to an insurer. The report says what was seen and what it points to. Older walls and timbers hold water for a long time, so it is worth finding the cause soon.
The written findings come by email, easy to pass on to a roofer, an agent or an insurer. Turnaround is within 48 hours for Basic, 24–48 hours for Standard and same day for Premium.

Landlord and commercial surveys in Ewhurst Green
Businesses and commercial landlords can book us too. Larger roofs take longer, and they’re priced for the size.
We survey roofs for landlords and letting agents as well as homeowners. A written report with photos gives you a clear record of the roof.
Leave it or get it looked at?
With an independent report, you have something specific to show your insurer. It records the damage and what seems to have caused it, so you are not relying only on your own photos. Outbuildings and barns around Ewhurst Green are easy to forget, but a failed roof there can spoil what’s stored inside. It is worth including them in a survey before a winter does the damage.
The Premium Survey includes thermal imaging and drone inspection where applicable, which starts from £400, including VAT. We can help you choose the package that fits what you want to find out.
What you get with us
- Customer satisfaction of 98%
- Drone and thermal imaging surveys available
- Clear package prices, with VAT included
- More than 20 years surveying roofs
Take a look at what a roof survey costs and what we found on two real jobs.
The survey, step by step
There is not much for you to do on the day. Show us any stains, drips or problem areas you know about, and we’ll take it from there. A typical survey takes an hour or two for most homes, depending on how much of the roof was hit. Rural addresses near Ewhurst Green 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 what you’ve seen and any temporary repairs.
- We check inside, including the loft where there’s access, for water damage.
- We view the roof from safe positions.
- Storm damage and older wear are recorded separately where we can.
- The report, with photos, is emailed to you.
Getting ready for the survey
- Keep pets inside or away from the areas we are looking at
- Agree roof access with the managing agent if it is shared
- Show us where any leaks or stains appear
Arrange a survey
Our phone lines are open seven days a week. To book or ask a question, ring 07833 053749 or send us an email.

Ewhurst Green: your questions answered
Do you carry out roof surveys in Ewhurst Green?
Yes, Ewhurst Green is one of the places we work. The survey and report are the same in Ewhurst Green as anywhere else.
Do you cover smaller places like Ewhurst Green?
Yes, we do. We work right across London and South East England, and smaller places are part of that. The journey is planned ahead, so it helps to know about access.
Is there a set wind speed for storm damage?
Each policy has its own definition. Many treat gusts of about 55 mph as storm conditions, but your policy sets the actual test.
Will my insurer pay for an old roof?
Wear and tear is not typically covered. We describe what looks like fresh storm damage and what looks older. Your insurer decides the claim.
How long does the survey take?
It normally takes about 1–2 hours at a house, and longer if the damage is spread across a large roof. You’ll then get the report by email, on the timescale of your package.
How experienced are you?
More than 5,000 surveys over 20+ years.
Will my insurer pay out if I get a storm damage report?
The decision is your insurer’s, not ours. We record the damage, with photos and the likely cause, which you can pass to your insurer.

Can I check my roof myself?
What you cannot do safely is get up close. Slates, tiles, flat roofs and rooflights can give way. That part is for a survey, using safe viewpoints and a drone where applicable.
You can learn a lot from ground level. With binoculars, look for slipped or missing slates and tiles, gaps along the ridge and leaning chimneys. Never climb onto the roof to look.
When you need someone else
A survey is a careful look at the roof, but it can’t do everything. Its limits include:
- Estimates of repair costs
- Whether your insurer will pay the claim
- The work of a loss adjuster appointed by your insurer
If in doubt, call 07833 053749 or drop us an email and we will point you to the right survey. What our survey covers.
