Common roof problems in Ewshot

Some people book because a claim has been questioned. An independent report gives you another view of the roof. We cannot say whether the decision will change.

Look out for signs like these:

  • Stains appearing after strong winds
  • Damaged ridges and hips
  • Roofs hit by falling trees
  • Damaged flat roof membrane

For landlords with property near Farnham station, a tenant living with a leak needs the cause found, not just the stain painted over.

Before booking any roof surveyor

  • Whether the price includes VAT
  • Is there a chance to talk the report through?
  • Will the report include photos?
  • Their insurance cover

What a good roof survey covers

Storm damage roof report in Ewshot

After a storm, safety comes first. Take photos from the ground or from windows, and do not climb onto the roof. If water is coming in, a roofer can put temporary protection in place. Our report records the damage so you have an independent record to give your insurer. Hold on to receipts for anything you pay for. If you’ve noticed lead lifted at abutments and lifted or missing ridge and hip tiles, a survey will tell you what’s going on.

Being in a small place like Ewshot makes no difference to how a leak or storm damage is looked at: the journey and access are just planned beforehand. Let us know where the water shows, when it appears and anything you’ve noticed outside, along with any repairs done before. Photos of the stain and of the roof from outside are helpful too.

The report is yours to share with whoever needs it: your solicitor, the seller, your insurer, a roofer or the building’s managing agent.

Leave it or get it looked at?

Knowing whether older wear played a part helps you understand your position. Our report gives an honest view of both, so you know what the roof shows. Older and listed buildings around Ewshot may need consent and matching materials for repairs, so leaving a defect until it’s urgent leaves less time to plan.

We offer three survey packages: Basic from £150, Standard from £250 and Premium from £400, with VAT included. The price for your roof depends on its size, access and what you’d like to know.

Tips that help

Most of what helps is simple and safe from the ground. A few suggestions:

  • Keep invoices for temporary repairs
  • Keep a note of the date of the storm
  • Check your policy for how to report damage
  • Keep any slates, tiles or debris that fall, if it is safe to do so

The insurer might appoint a loss adjuster. You will have your own independent record to refer to.

Check the roof from ground level after strong winds. With binoculars, you can often spot problems without climbing. Never climb onto the roof yourself.

How we price storm damage roof reports

Every roof is different, so prices are confirmed before you book. This is what makes a difference:

  • How complicated the roof is, with its valleys, chimneys and parapets
  • Roof area
  • Extra roofs, like extensions, dormers or garages
  • Height and safe access

Every price we give includes VAT, and the written report is part of the package. Storm damage roof report starts from £150, including VAT. Where your roof sits in the range depends on its size, height and access.

Helping us price your survey

A little information up front helps. Please include:

  • Photos of the roof, taken safely from the ground or a window
  • The address and postcode of the property
  • Any stains, drips or damp patches you’ve seen indoors
  • How the loft is reached, if there is one

A quick phone call is typically the easiest start: phone 07833 053749 or email us and we’ll ask a few questions about the roof. You’ll have a price before anything is arranged.

Storm damage roof reports around Ewshot

Older houses across Surrey frequently have handmade clay tiles, and many have tile-hanging. Some old buildings in Surrey and Sussex have Horsham stone slab roofs. Each of these roof types has its own typical places for water to get in. The wider area around Ewshot has a long history of building, with Farnham Castle about 1.9 miles south-east. Older homes in the wider area frequently have features worth a closer look, such as lead valleys, tall stacks and roofs that have been patched over the years.

Anyone responsible for a site like St Nicholas' School will know that tracing a leak on a big roof starts with where the water appears and works back. If you run a business near Hart Shopping Centre, water through a ceiling can damage stock and close a sales floor, so the source needs finding fast.

Checking the roof from the ground

Inside, the loft is a good place to look, with care. Take a torch and only step on boards or joists, and look for staining, damp timber or daylight coming through.

A DIY look is useful, but it isn’t a survey. From ground level, valleys, flashings and the backs of chimneys are often out of sight.

Questions from Ewshot

Will you come out to Ewshot?

Yes, Ewshot is on our map. A small place gets exactly the same survey as a big one, with the route planned beforehand.

Is Ewshot in the area you cover?

We do. The survey and report are the same in Ewshot as anywhere else, and visits run on weekdays and weekends.

Does your report mean my claim will be accepted?

That’s not something we can promise. Insurers decide claims on their own policy wording. What we provide is an independent record of the damage.

Do you act for me with my insurer?

No. Our report is an independent record for you to use. Your insurer may appoint its own loss adjuster.

Who handles emergency protection after a storm?

Emergency temporary protection is a job for a roofer. If it is safe, take photos before it goes on. We can record the damage in our report.

Will you fly a drone over my roof?

Where it helps and the rules allow, yes. 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.

Is this an asbestos survey?

No. Our report may flag materials that could contain asbestos, but only a specialist asbestos surveyor can confirm it. It may be present in buildings built or refurbished before 2000.

What happens on the day

We work from the outside in: first the slopes, edges and gutters from every safe viewpoint, then the loft space where it can be reached. In total, it takes an hour or two at a house, and longer if the damage is spread across a large roof. Older roofs in small places like Ewshot can have low, tight loft spaces, so it helps to know whether there is a loft hatch and how easy it is to reach. We only go where it’s safe.

  1. We start with the details: when the storm hit and what damage you can see.
  2. We view the roof from wherever it can safely be seen, including the loft where there is access.
  3. The damage is recorded with photos, area by area.
  4. We note the likely cause, including any signs of wear that were there before the storm.
  5. We send you a written report with photos, ready to give to your insurer.

Before the survey

  • Keep pets in another room
  • Let us know about parking before the day
  • For flats, make sure roof access has been agreed
