Storm damage roof reports in Frogham

What happens if roof problems are left?

A few slipped slates can soon lead to wet timbers. Acting quickly normally means less damage overall. Older cottages and farmhouses around Frogham can have roof timbers that have been there a very long time, where water from a failed roof can cause rot if it is left.

Our price is from £150, including VAT. What you pay depends on the size and height of the roof, how it can be seen safely and the package you choose.

What you get with us

  • An independent view of the roof
  • Package prices that include VAT
  • Satisfaction rate of 98%
  • Drone flown under a CAA Flyer ID and Operator ID

Storm damage roof report in Frogham: what you get

Our storm damage report gives you an independent, written record of how a storm has affected your roof. It sets out what is damaged, with photographs, and what we think the likely cause is. It’s yours to pass to your insurer. Insurers decide claims on their own policy wording. We’re not loss adjusters, and we cannot tell you whether a claim will succeed. If you’ve noticed flashings pulled away from walls or stacks and slates and tiles blown off the roof, a survey will tell you what’s going on, on chimney stacks, ridges and hips and flashings alike.

In a village or hamlet like Frogham, older cottages and farmhouses frequently have roofs that have been patched over many years. A new leak may be fresh damage or the latest sign of long-term wear, and the difference matters, particularly to an insurer. We look at everything that’s safely in view and set out what we find. Damp in old walls and timbers is slow to dry, so the sooner the cause is found the better.

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.

Common questions in Frogham

Do you cover Frogham?

We do. The survey and report are the same in Frogham as anywhere else.

Do you cover smaller places like Frogham?

Yes. Frogham is within the area we cover, which takes in towns, villages and rural addresses. Our area covers London and the South East. Just mention lanes, gates or anything else about the route as you book.

Can you put a tarpaulin over the damage?

A roofer should handle temporary protection. If it is safe, take photos before it goes on. Our report then records the roof.

How long will you be at the property?

It usually takes roughly 1–2 hours at most homes, rising to roughly 3–4 hours on a commercial building. We will confirm the timing when booking.

What if the roof was already worn?

Wear and tear is normally excluded from home insurance. We note both storm damage and older defects, so it is clear what we found. Your insurer decides how its policy applies.

Do you need to get into the loft?

If the survey needs it and the loft space can be reached safely, yes. A clear path to the hatch helps, and if the loft cannot be reached safely, the report says so.

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.

What we can’t see

Some things can’t be seen without opening up the roof, and that sets some limits:

  • What’s beneath slates, tiles or membranes
  • Repair costs or quotes for the work
  • How your policy defines a storm

If in doubt, call 07833 053749 or drop us an email and we will point you to the right survey. What a survey covers and does not.

What we check

  • Slate and tile slopes
  • Chimney stacks
  • Gutters and fascias
  • Flat roofs
  • Ridges and hips
  • Flashings

Practical tips

Getting the most from a storm damage roof report starts before we arrive and carries on afterwards. Tips:

  • Keep any slates, tiles or debris that fall, if it’s safe to do so
  • Take photos of stains and damp inside
  • Write down when the storm hit and when you noticed damage
  • Check how your policy defines a storm

The insurer might appoint a loss adjuster. Our report gives you an independent record alongside theirs.

Have overhanging branches looked at by a tree surgeon. Branches can hit or scrape the roof in a storm.

When to book a survey in Frogham

Insurers often want evidence of what has been damaged and why. A written report with photos gives you something clear to pass on. Your insurer still makes the decision.

A survey can pick up problems such as:

  • Lifted or missing ridge and hip tiles
  • Loose or torn flashings
  • Stains appearing after strong winds
  • Cowls or aerials dislodged in the wind

For an older house near a landmark such as Church of the Holy Ascension, the leak may come from a chimney, a valley or tired lead rather than the covering itself.

Choosing a roof surveyor

  • What insurance they carry
  • Which parts of the roof they’ll actually see
  • Whether the loft space is looked at, where there is one
  • What’s outside the scope of the survey

What a good roof survey covers

Different roofs, different checks

Chimney stacks

Wind can pull the flashings away from a chimney. Loose flashings are recorded.

Clay and concrete tiles

Broken or missing tiles leave the underlay exposed to rain. We photograph each gap.

What happens on the day

We look at the roof from outside and, where it’s relevant and there is safe access, from inside the roof space too. In the loft, the signs we look for are staining, damp, daylight and sagging. The whole visit typically takes roughly 1–2 hours for most houses, and more on a big or complicated roof. Somewhere as small as Frogham, access is frequently the only tricky part. Let us know about outbuildings, past repairs and any leaks you’ve noticed. Visits can be on weekdays, Saturdays or Sundays.

  1. You let us know what happened and whether a roofer has made the roof safe.
  2. Inside, we look for signs of water in the loft and rooms below.
  3. We view the roof from safe positions.
  4. We record fresh damage and older defects.
  5. You receive the written report with photos.

Getting ready for the survey

  • Tell us about any leaks, stains or damp patches you know of
  • Dig out any old roof reports or invoices
  • Make a note of anything you’d like us to look at

How to book

Our price is from £150, including VAT. What you pay depends on the roof’s size, access and the package, and you can phone 07833 053749 or drop us an email to find out.

Advice

Leaks and storm damage in Frogham

Thatch survives on some older buildings in Hampshire’s villages. Older houses in the South East often have slate or clay tile roofs, while many later estates have concrete tiles. Each of these roof types has its own typical places for water to get in. Breamore House, about 4 miles north, is one of the historic houses in the wider area around Frogham. 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.

If you look after a building such as Hyde Church of England Primary School, water through a big roof can travel a long way before it drips, so the search covers more than the obvious spot.
