About our storm damage roof report in Fulham
After a storm, it’s useful 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 cannot tell you if your claim will succeed. What you get is an independent view of the roof’s condition. If you’ve noticed flat roof edges peeled back and damaged gutters and fascias, a survey will tell you what’s going on, whatever the roof.
Many London homes are well over a century old and their roofs have been patched more than once, so a new leak can be the latest sign of wear rather than a single event. Telling wear from a one-off event matters, because insurers typically exclude wear and tear. A careful look in Fulham tells the two apart where the evidence allows. A written record with photos helps you explain what was found to whoever deals with it next.
Every survey ends with a written report, with photographs, emailed to you. It sets out the condition of the roof, any defects and our written recommendations.

What a survey costs
When we price a survey, we consider:
- The shape of the roof and its details
- If the survey needs thermal imaging or a drone
- Roof area
- Extensions, dormers and garages with roofs of their own
What a survey costs comes down to the roof itself: how big it is, how high it is, the number of separate roofs and how safely it can be seen. Storm damage roof report starts from £150, including VAT.
What to let us know when you contact us
Before you get in touch, it’s useful to have:
- Photos of the roof, taken safely from the ground or a window
- What made you get in touch
- The style of property, from a terrace to a block
- Where the property is, with the postcode
If you have photos of the roof, send them over. Take them safely from the ground or a window, and please don’t climb up for a closer look. To send them or to book, ring 07833 053749 or send us an email.

Fulham: your questions answered
Do you cover Fulham?
Yes, Fulham is one of the places we work. Every survey there gets the same written report with photos, and visits run on weekdays and weekends.
Is my home in Fulham listed or in a conservation area?
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. Listed building consent is needed for changes that affect a listed building’s special interest, and conservation areas can limit changes of roofing material.
What do I do if water is coming in?
Call a roofer for emergency temporary protection. Take photos from ground level first if it is safe. Keep receipts for any emergency work.
My storm claim was turned down. What now?
Start by complaining to the insurer. If it isn’t resolved, the Financial Ombudsman Service may be able to help. The Ombudsman asks about storm conditions, whether the damage is consistent with a storm and whether the storm was the main cause.
How long is the visit?
It typically takes between one and two hours for most houses, while a commercial roof takes nearer three to four hours. We’ll confirm the timing when you book.
Can you tell me if my roof has asbestos?
No. We do not carry out asbestos surveys or testing. If we see materials that could contain asbestos, like cement roof sheets or soffits on buildings from before 2000, we flag them.
What’s the best way to book?
It is easiest to call 07833 053749 or drop us an email. Let us know the address and a little about the roof, and we’ll take it from there. Surveys run on any day of the week.
Tips that help
Nothing here needs a ladder. Our suggestions:
- Look at what your policy says about wear and tear
- Write down when the storm hit and when you noticed damage
- Keep any slates, tiles or debris that fall, if it is safe to do so
- Ask a roofer for emergency temporary protection if water is coming in
If a claim is declined and you disagree, the first step is a complaint to the insurer. After that, you may be able to take it to the Financial Ombudsman Service.
Keep gutters and outlets clear so heavy rain can drain away. Overflowing gutters can make storm damage worse.
Checking the roof from ground level
It helps to keep a record: dates of leaks, photos from the ground and any work done on the roof. Share it with us when booking.
After heavy rain, check ceilings and the tops of walls for new stains. Take a photo and write down when you saw it.
How the survey changes by roof type
Flat roof coverings
Debris blown onto a flat roof can puncture the covering or block outlets. Any damage is recorded with photos.
Clay and concrete tiles
Tiles can lift, crack or blow off in high winds. We record which are damaged and where.
Do you need a storm damage roof report in Fulham?
Landlords and managing agents book reports to keep a record for owners and insurers. It helps when explaining damage to a building owner or insurer.
Signs worth acting on include:
- Broken or displaced guttering
- Flashings pulled away from walls or stacks
- Damaged ridges and hips
- Gaps where slates or tiles have gone
For site and facilities teams at buildings such as St Johns Walham Green 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.
Questions to ask before you book
- Whether the price includes VAT
- Are they insured for the work?
- Whether any drone flown is registered with the CAA
- Whether the roof space is looked at, where there is one
What we do, step by step
On the day, we start by asking what you’ve noticed and what you want to find out. We then inspect everything that can be seen safely, using the ground, windows, the loft and a drone where it applies. Most surveys take an hour or two for most homes, depending on how much of the roof was hit. Surveys in Fulham can be booked for any day of the week. London parking is often by permit or pay-and-display, so it’s useful to know what’s near you. Upstairs rooms at the back are useful too, as they frequently give the best view of a rear addition.
- We start with the details: when the storm hit and what damage you can see.
- We inspect the roof from safe viewpoints and from the loft where there is access.
- Each area of damage is photographed and described.
- We look at whether the damage fits storm damage, older wear or both.
- We send you a written report with photos, ready to give to your insurer.
Preparing for the visit
- Have any questions written down, so nothing gets missed
- Buyers: confirm access with the estate agent or seller
- Show us where any leaks or stains appear
Arrange a survey
We confirm the price for your roof before you book, so you know where you stand. Prices start from £150, including VAT. For a price for your roof, phone 07833 053749 or use the contact form.

What a storm damage roof report looks like in Fulham
Inner London’s Victorian and Edwardian terraces often have Welsh slate roofs. From the street you may see only a parapet, with a butterfly roof and a valley gutter behind it draining to the back. In a house like that, shared stacks, party-wall upstands and lead flashings all need looking at as far as they can be seen. Knowing the roof type helps narrow down where water may be getting in. About 0.7 miles south-west lies Fulham Palace, a reminder of how long the area around Fulham has been built on. If yours is one of the older homes, expect a mix of original materials and later repairs on the roof, and a listed home or one in a conservation area may need consent for changes of material.
Trees in and around Parsons Green (park) shed leaves that can end up in nearby gutters, and an overflowing gutter soon means a wet wall. If you own a rental within reach of West Brompton station, a clear finding on where water gets in helps you brief a roofer right away.
