Storm damage roof reports near Foley Park

Why it’s worth a survey now in Foley Park

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. With lower homes, common in places like Foley Park, there’s little between a roof defect and the ceiling, so a small leak can mark a ceiling within a few storms. Finding the cause first saves a second job inside.

Prices quoted always include VAT, and the report is not charged as an extra. Prices start from £150, including VAT. Size, height and access decide where your roof falls.

Storm damage roof reports for homes and businesses in Foley Park

Each roof is looked at from the safest viewpoints available: from ground level, from windows and higher points, from the loft space and from the roof where it’s safe. We photograph and describe each area of damage. If part of the roof can’t be seen, the report says so. The report, with photos, is yours to pass to your insurer. Common reasons to book are loose or torn flashings and water coming in after the storm, across ridges and hips, flashings and chimney stacks.

Chimney stacks on older houses around places like Foley Park can let water in, through worn flaunching, failed pointing or lifted flashings. Damp in a chimney breast can have more than one cause, so it is not always obvious where it starts. The stack, its flashings and the loft space beside it are all worth checking.

Where we cannot see part of the roof, the report says so. You’ll know exactly what was inspected and what wasn’t, and what we’d suggest next.

Foley Park questions

Will you come out to Foley Park?

Yes, smaller places are covered as well as towns. We cover the whole of London and South East England. Let us know about access, parking and anything unusual about getting there when you book.

Do you carry out roof surveys in Foley Park?

Yes, Foley Park is one of the places we work. Every survey there gets the same written report with photos.

How do I arrange a storm damage roof report in Foley Park?

Simply phone 07833 053749 or send us an email. We will ask a few questions, confirm the price and agree a date, weekday or weekend.

Can I challenge a declined storm claim?

Start by complaining to the insurer. The Financial Ombudsman Service may look at it if that does not resolve it. The Ombudsman looks at whether there were storm conditions, whether the damage fits a storm and whether the storm was the main cause.

Can you put a tarpaulin over the damage?

Emergency cover over a damaged roof should be arranged with a roofer. Take photos from the ground first if it is safe. Keep receipts for any emergency work.

Is this an asbestos survey?

No. We can flag materials that might contain asbestos, but confirming it is a job for a specialist asbestos surveyor. It may be present in buildings built or refurbished before 2000.

Do you survey roofs on blocks of flats?

Yes, if the building owner or managing agent agrees access. We check the parts we’re given access to.

Do you need a storm damage roof report in Foley Park?

Gusts work at anything on a roof that is loose or exposed. Driving rain then gets in through the gaps. Most people book a report soon after a storm, when they’ve seen damage or water has come in.

A survey makes sense if you’ve noticed:

  • Damaged flat roof membrane
  • Ridge tiles that have come loose
  • Damaged gutters and fascias
  • Slates and tiles blown off the roof

Landlords with a home close to Maidstone East station may find that a clear finding on where water gets in helps you brief a roofer right away.

What to check before booking

  • How long the report takes to arrive
  • Will they check the loft as well as the outside?
  • Whether you can ask questions once you have the report
  • What insurance they carry

What to expect from a roof survey

Storm damage roof reports in Foley Park: local notes

Stoneacre, about 2.9 miles south-east, is one of the historic houses in the wider area around Foley Park. On older houses around here, roofs often carry the marks of earlier repairs, from replaced slates to new lead. Many older homes in Kent have handmade clay tiles, including Kent peg tiles held by pegs through two holes, and tile-hanging on their upper walls. You’ll also find oast houses and timber-framed Wealden hall houses among the county’s older buildings. Where water gets in depends a good deal on what the roof is made of and how it is detailed.

Anyone responsible for a site like St Paul's Infant School will know that water through a big roof can travel a long way before it drips, so the search covers more than the obvious spot. Trees in and around Vinters Valley Park shed leaves that can end up in nearby gutters, and blocked gutters overflow and soak walls.

What we do, step by step

When we arrive, we begin with a quick chat about the roof and anything that’s worrying you. After that, we look at everything we can see safely, using the ground, windows, the loft and a drone where applicable. The survey usually takes about 1–2 hours at a house, and longer if the damage is spread across a large roof. With a bit of garden around a house, as there often is around Foley Park, the roof can be viewed from several angles. Let us know if any side is fenced off or hard to reach. The loft, where there’s safe access, completes the picture.

  1. First you give us the date of the storm and what you’ve noticed, inside and out.
  2. The roof is looked at from the ground, from windows and from the roof space where it is safe.
  3. We photograph and record every area of damage we can see.
  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 we arrive

  • Show us where any leaks or stains appear
  • Make sure pets are kept safely away
  • Let us know about parking near the property

How to book
