Frimley Storm Damage Roof Report

- Loose or torn flashings

Why it is worth a survey now in Frimley
Leaving storm damage can let water into the loft space and rooms below. Further water damage can blur what the storm actually did. A roofer should deal with emergency protection quickly. In a family home in Frimley, 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.
We offer three survey packages: the Basic Survey from £150, the Standard Survey from £250 and the Premium Survey from £400, with VAT included. What your roof costs depends on its size, access and what you want to find out.

- Photographs and a written report every time
- Drone flown under a CAA Flyer ID and Operator ID

Storm damage roof report in Frimley: what you get
After a storm, safety comes first. Photograph the damage from the ground or a window, and never climb up. 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 loose or torn flashings and slates and tiles blown off the roof, we can find out what’s behind it, on flat roofs, flashings and chimney stacks alike.
When a storm passes over a town like Frimley, loose tiles, slates and ridges are the first to move. What counts as a storm depends on your policy; many use gusts of around 55 mph. A report setting out the damage, with photographs, helps you explain what you’ve found, whether to an insurer or a roofer. Policies usually exclude wear and tear, which is why the age of the damage matters.
You can share the report with anyone who needs it: your solicitor, the seller, your insurer, a roofer or the building’s managing agent, whichever applies.

Wind, rain and roofs in Frimley
Older buildings may be listed or sit in a conservation area. To find out, check Historic England’s list and ask the council about conservation areas. Re-roofing in different materials may need permission there. Handmade clay tiles and tile-hung walls are typical of Surrey’s older houses. A few of Surrey’s oldest buildings have heavy Horsham stone slab roofs. Each of these roof types has its own typical places for water to get in.
Anyone responsible for a site like Lakeside Primary 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. If you live near a park such as Frimley Lodge Park, or anywhere with mature trees, autumn leaves can block gutters and valleys, and an overflowing gutter soon means a wet wall. If you live in an older home near St. Peter's Church, lead flashings, valleys and old chimneys are typical places for water to get in.

Roof by roof

Clay and concrete tiles
Broken or missing tiles leave the underlay exposed to rain. Each gap is recorded with a photo.

- Whether your insurer will pay the claim
- Negotiating a claim settlement

Can I check my roof myself?
A DIY look is useful, but it is not a survey. From the ground, valleys, flashings and the backs of chimneys are often out of sight.
Keep a simple record: when leaks happen, ground-level photos and any past roof work. Share it with us as you book, as it helps us focus the survey.

FAQs for Frimley
What do I need to do before a survey in Frimley?
It helps to clear access to the loft, and to let us know about leaks, damp patches or recent work. Parking and access details for Frimley help us plan the visit.
Does a conservation area affect roof work in Frimley?
You can check whether a building is listed on Historic England’s list, and your council can tell you if it’s in a conservation area. If a home is listed, changes that affect its special interest need listed building consent, and in a conservation area re-roofing in different materials may need permission.
Is wear and tear covered by insurance?
Wear and tear is not typically covered. Our report gives an honest view of what’s recent damage and what’s older wear. Your insurer decides the claim.
Will you walk on the roof?
Not unless it’s safe. Safe viewpoints, the roof space and a drone where it applies cover most of what’s needed.
Will you deal with the insurance company for me?
No. We aren’t loss adjusters and don’t act for you with the insurer. We give you an independent report of the damage, which you can pass to your insurer.
Is this an asbestos survey?
No. Our report may flag materials that could 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 I have to be there for the survey?
Someone needs to let us in if we’re looking inside or in the loft. Access is agreed with you when you book.
What a survey costs
To price your survey, we check:
- If the survey needs thermal imaging or a drone
- Height and safe access
- Extensions, dormers and garages with roofs of their own
- Features like valleys, chimneys, dormers and parapets
Storm damage roof report starts from £150, including VAT. What you pay depends on the size and height of the roof, how it can safely be seen and the package you choose.
Helping us price your survey
The more you tell us, the easier it is to price the survey. When you get in touch, it is useful to mention:
- Where the property is, with the postcode
- Whether there is a loft hatch, a shared roof or tricky access
- Pictures from the garden or a window, if you have them
- What made you get in touch
Our price is from £150, including VAT. The exact figure depends on the roof and the package, and you can phone 07833 053749 or send us an email to find out.
How the survey works
Before we start, tell us why you’ve booked: a purchase, a leak, a storm, new work or simply peace of mind. It helps us focus on what matters most to you. Most visits take about one to two hours at a house, and longer if the damage is spread across a large roof. In Frimley, parking is rarely complicated, though it helps to know about driveways or restrictions. We look at the roof from ground level and from windows, then from the loft where there is safe access.
- First we go through when the storm hit and what you’ve noticed.
- We check the roof from wherever it’s safe.
- Each area of damage is photographed and described.
- The report notes whether the damage fits a storm, older wear or both.
- You get a written report to pass to your insurer.
How to prepare
- Point out any leaks or damp patches
- If the roof is shared, arrange access with whoever manages the building
- Make sure the loft hatch can be reached
