How a storm damage roof report works in Goose Green
We inspect the roof from wherever it can safely be seen: the ground, windows and vantage points, the loft where there’s access, and the roof itself where that is safe. Every area of damage is photographed and described. We note any part we couldn’t see. The report, with photos, is yours to pass to your insurer. If you’ve noticed slates and tiles blown off the roof and damage from fallen branches or debris, we can find out what’s behind it, whatever the roof.
For a small place like Goose Green, the inspection is the same as anywhere: we simply plan the journey and access ahead. It is useful to know where the water appears, in what weather, and what you’ve seen outside, along with any repairs done before. If you have photographs of the water coming in, they help as well.
The report records the roof as we found it on the day. That makes it useful now and a handy reference later.

Signs you need a storm damage roof report in Goose Green
A storm often finds a roof’s existing weak spots. Corroded nails on slate roofs, worn mortar on ridges and old flashings can all give way. Our report notes both the storm damage and any older wear.
It’s worth booking a survey if you’ve seen:
- Damaged gutters and fascias
- Damaged pots on the stack
- New damp or leaks inside
- Flashings pulled away from walls or stacks
Landlords with a home close to Billingshurst station may find that a clear finding on where water gets in helps you brief a roofer straight away.
What to check before booking
- What happens after the report arrives
- Whether the roof space is looked at, where there is one
- Are they insured for the work?
- What they will not be able to tell you
What a survey costs
Prices always include VAT. What changes the price is:
- How complicated the roof is, with its valleys, chimneys and parapets
- The package you choose: Basic, Standard or Premium
- Extensions, dormers and garages with roofs of their own
- The use of thermal imaging or a drone
All our prices include VAT. Storm damage roof report starts from £150, including VAT. You’ll know the price for your survey before booking.
What to tell us when you contact us
Before you get in touch, it helps to have:
- Pictures of the roof from a safe spot, if you have them
- Any marks or damp showing indoors
- What made you get in touch
- Anything about access we should know
Most bookings start with a short call: phone 07833 053749 or send us an email. The price is agreed before a date is set.
What happens if roof problems are left?
With an independent report, you have something specific to show your insurer. It sets out what we found and the likely cause, so you are not relying only on your own photos. Matching old materials, such as handmade tiles or stone slates, can take time to source. Spotting a problem early leaves room to find them.
Our price is from £150, including VAT. What you pay depends on how big and how high the roof is, access and which survey you book.
What you get with us
- A sub-250g drone, flown with a CAA Flyer ID and Operator ID
- Drone and thermal imaging surveys available
- Prices that include VAT
- Plain-English reports with photos

Wind, rain and roofs in Goose Green
About 4.5 miles south-west lies Parham House, a reminder of how long the area around Goose Green has been built on. On older houses around here, roofs often carry the marks of earlier repairs, from replaced slates to new lead. In Sussex, older roofs are often handmade clay tile, frequently with tile-hanging on the walls below. Some old buildings in Sussex have Horsham stone slab roofs. Each of these roof types has its own typical places for water to get in.
For an older house near a landmark such as The Parish Church of St Mary, old mortar, worn lead and slipped slates are the usual suspects when water gets in. Anyone responsible for a site like Rydon Community College will know that on a building that size, finding the source of a drip means looking well beyond the stain.

Can I check my roof myself?
After heavy rain, check ceilings and the tops of walls for new stains. Take a photo and write down when you saw it, which helps when we look at the roof.
You can learn a lot from the ground. With binoculars, look for slipped or missing slates and tiles, gaps along the ridge and leaning chimneys. Never climb onto the roof to look.
Your questions about storm damage roof reports in Goose Green
How do I find out if my home in Goose Green is listed?
The council and Historic England’s list are the places to check. It is worth checking before planning roof work, as both can affect what’s allowed.
Will you come out to Goose Green?
Yes, Goose Green is covered. We work right across London and the South East, and smaller places are part of that. Longer journeys are simply planned in advance.
Are you loss adjusters?
No. Our report is an independent record for you to use. Your insurer may appoint its own loss adjuster.
Who handles emergency protection after a storm?
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.
Will you fly a drone over my roof?
Yes, where it’s applicable. Our sub-250g drone is flown by a CAA-registered operator with a Flyer ID and Operator ID, and every flight depends on the airspace and the weather.
Will my insurer pay out if I get a storm damage report?
The decision is your insurer’s, not ours. We record the damage, with photographs and the likely cause, which you can pass to your insurer.
What does a storm damage report cost?
Storm damage roof report starts from £150, including VAT. Bigger roofs are quoted on size and access. Repair costs aren’t included, so ask a roofer to quote.
How it works
When we arrive, we begin with a quick chat about the roof and anything that is worrying you. After that, we check everything we can see safely, from the ground, from windows, in the loft space and by drone where it applies. The survey usually takes between one and two hours for most houses, rising to roughly 3–4 hours on a commercial building. In a hamlet or village like Goose Green, a postcode does not always lead to the right gate, so a few directions are welcome. The visit itself is the same as anywhere else.
- We start with what you’ve seen and any temporary repairs.
- Inside, we look for signs of water in the loft and rooms below.
- We view the roof from safe positions.
- Storm damage and older wear are recorded separately where we can.
- The report, with photos, is emailed to you.
Before the survey
- Gather any invoices or paperwork from past roof work
- Let us know about parking near the property
- Make a note of anything you’d like us to look at
Arrange a survey
