Storm damage roof reports for homes and businesses in Fleet
After a storm, it helps to have a clear record of what happened to your roof. We photograph the damage, describe it and note whether it fits storm damage, older wear or both. We are not loss adjusters, and we cannot say whether a claim will be paid. What we give you is an independent record of the roof. Common reasons to book are lifted or missing ridge and hip tiles and broken or displaced guttering, across chimney stacks, slate and tile slopes and ridges and hips.
Strong winds lift loose tiles, slates and ridge pieces in towns like Fleet as anywhere. What counts as a storm depends on your policy; many use gusts of around 55 mph. Photographs and a written account help you show what happened, whether to an insurer or a roofer. Policies typically exclude wear and tear, which is why the age of the damage matters.
What you get is a clear record of the roof on the day we saw it. It is useful right away, and a good reference for later, such as when you want to compare after future work.

Why it is worth a survey now in Fleet
It helps to get a record soon after the storm, while the damage is fresh. Later weather and temporary repairs can make it harder to see what happened. In a family home in Fleet, a small roof fault lets water into places you can’t see, such as the loft insulation, the top of a wall or the roof timbers. By the time a stain appears on a ceiling, there’s more to put right.
One thing that affects the price is the package: from £150 for Basic, £250 for Standard and £400 for Premium, with VAT included. The roof’s size, height and access matter as well.

When to book a survey in Fleet
Others book after an insurer has queried a claim. You get an independent record of what the roof shows. We cannot say whether the decision will change.
Typical things we are asked to look at include:
- Slates and tiles blown off the roof
- New damp or leaks inside
- Loose or broken chimney pots and cowls
- Gutters pulled loose in the wind
Take a building like Heatherside Junior School: tracing a leak on a big roof starts with where the water appears and works back.
Questions to ask before you book
- Will they check the loft as well as the outside?
- Whether you get a written report with photos
- Do they have a CAA Flyer ID and Operator ID for drone work?
- What happens after the report arrives
FAQs for Fleet
Is Fleet in the area you cover?
We do. The survey and report are the same in Fleet as anywhere else.
How do I find out if my home in Fleet is listed?
Check Historic England’s online list first, then ask the council about conservation areas and any Article 4 direction. It matters most if you are planning to re-roof in a different material.
Is this an asbestos survey?
No. We don’t carry out asbestos surveys or testing. We flag materials that could contain asbestos, like cement sheets or soffits on pre-2000 buildings and suggest a specialist asbestos surveyor checks them before any work.
Can you put a tarpaulin over the damage?
Emergency temporary protection is a job for a roofer. If it is safe, take photos before it goes on. Our report then records the roof.
What wind speed counts as a storm?
Each policy has its own definition. Many treat gusts of about 55 mph as storm conditions, but check your own wording.
Does someone need to be in?
If the survey includes the loft or the inside of the building, someone needs to let us in. We’ll talk about access as you book.
How long is the visit?
Time on site depends on the roof; most visits take between one and two hours at a house, and longer if the damage is spread across a large roof. The written report follows by email.
Storm damage roof reports in Fleet: local notes
Farnham Castle, about 4.1 miles south, is one of the historic houses in the wider area around Fleet. Period homes nearby can have lead valleys, tall chimneys and a patchwork of past repairs, and a listed home or one in a conservation area may need consent for changes of material. Thatch survives on some older buildings in Hampshire’s villages. Slate and clay tile are the usual coverings on older South East houses, with concrete tiles on many later estates. Different coverings let water in at different points, which shapes where the search starts.
If you run a business near Hart Shopping Centre, a quick answer on where water is coming in keeps a business running. Trees in and around Oakley Park shed leaves that can end up in nearby gutters, and blocked gutters overflow and soak walls.

- Areas we can’t see safely

Roof by roof
Flat roof coverings
Branches and debris can damage flat roofs or block outlets. We record what we find.
Clay and concrete tiles
Older tiles held only by nibs, without nails or clips, can lift more easily. We note what we can see of how tiles are fixed.
What happens on the day
We check the roof from outside and, where it’s relevant and there’s safe access, from inside the roof space too. Inside, we look for staining, damp, gaps and signs of movement, as far as the space allows. The whole visit typically takes between one and two hours for most homes, depending on how much of the roof was hit. A visit in Fleet runs most smoothly with the loft hatch clear, side gates open and a parking spot in mind. Someone needs to let us in, so let us know who that will be.
- We start with the details: when the storm hit and what damage you can see.
- We view the roof from wherever it can safely be seen, including the loft where there is access.
- We photograph and record every area of damage we can see.
- We check whether the damage fits storm damage, older wear or both.
- You get a written report you can pass to your insurer.
Preparing for the visit
- Check pets are kept safely away
- Jot down any questions you want answered
- If the roof is shared, arrange access with whoever manages the building

Tips from our surveys
Here are a few things we’d tell any owner:
- Keep invoices for temporary repairs
- Check how your policy defines a storm
- Photograph the damage safely from below
- Hold on to fallen pieces of the roof where you can
For repair costs, ask a roofer to quote. They can use our report to see what needs doing.
A well-maintained roof stands up to storms better. Have loose slates, tiles and flashings seen to promptly.
