What happens on the day
Before we start, let us know why you’ve booked: buying, a leak, storm damage, new work or just wanting to know where things stand. It helps us focus on what matters most to you. The visit normally takes an hour or two at most homes, and about three to four hours for a commercial roof. In a hamlet or village like Hannington, a postcode doesn’t always lead to the right gate, so a few directions, or a note of a nearby landmark, help us arrive on time. The visit itself is the same as anywhere else.
- You let us know what happened and whether a roofer has made the roof safe.
- Inside, we look for signs of water in the loft and rooms below.
- We view the roof from safe positions.
- We record fresh damage and older defects.
- You receive the written report with photos.
Getting ready for the survey
- Make sure we can get to the back of the property
- Let us know about parking near the property
- If it isn’t your property yet, arrange access through the agent
Book a survey
If you are buying, it helps to book soon after your offer is accepted, so there’s time to use the report before exchange. Otherwise, simply phone 07833 053749 or email us whenever suits you.
Advice
How a storm damage roof report works in Hannington
Our storm damage report gives you an independent, written record of how a storm has affected your roof. We record each area of damage, photograph it and note the likely cause. You can then give it to your insurer with your claim. The decision on any claim rests with your insurer and its policy wording. We’re not loss adjusters, and we cannot tell you whether a claim will succeed. Typical surveys look at water coming in after the storm and damaged ridges and hips, on flashings, flat roofs and chimney stacks.
Somewhere as small as Hannington, older roofs have often been repaired many times. A new leak may be fresh damage or the latest sign of long-term wear, and the difference matters, particularly to an insurer. The report says what was seen and what it points to. Damp in old walls and timbers is slow to dry, so the sooner the cause is found the better.
Pictures do a lot of the work in our reports, so you can see each defect rather than just read about it. Anything out of sight on the day is listed as such.

Storm damage roof reports around Hannington
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. In either case, a change of roofing material may need consent. A number of Hampshire villages keep thatched roofs on their older buildings. Older houses in the South East frequently have slate or clay tile roofs, while many later estates have concrete tiles. Where water gets in depends a good deal on what the roof is made of and how it is detailed.
If you own a rental within reach of Overton station, tracing a leak quickly matters when a tenant is living with it.

Do you need a storm damage roof report in Hannington?
Some people book because a claim has been questioned. An independent report gives you another view of the roof. We can’t say whether the decision will change.
Things that frequently lead to a survey include:
- Loose or broken chimney pots and cowls
- Slates and tiles blown off the roof
- Torn or lifted flat roof coverings
- Ridge tiles that have come loose
If you own one of the older houses in the streets near Church of All Saints, old mortar, worn lead and slipped slates are the usual suspects when water gets in.
Questions to ask before you book
- If they fly a drone, whether they hold a CAA Flyer ID and Operator ID
- What’s outside the scope of the survey
- What insurance they carry
- How long the report takes to arrive
Hannington questions
Do you cover Hannington?
Yes. We cover the whole of London and South East England, and Hannington is part of that. Just call 07833 053749 or send us an email and let us know about the property, and we will talk through which survey suits.
Do you cover smaller places like Hannington?
Yes, Hannington is on our map. Villages and rural addresses get the same survey as a town house, with the route planned beforehand.
Do you look in the loft space?
Usually, if there’s one and it can be reached safely. The loft space can show things the outside cannot, like damp timbers, staining or daylight.
What does a storm damage report cost?
Prices start from £150, including VAT. Larger or more complex roofs are quoted for their size. Repair costs are not included, so ask a roofer to quote.
How strong does the wind have to be for a storm claim?
Each policy has its own definition. Many treat gusts of about 55 mph as storm conditions, but check your own wording.
Can I check the roof after a storm?
Please do not climb onto the roof. Photograph the damage from below or from a window. Record the date and any damage inside as well.
What do I do if water is coming in?
Call a roofer for emergency temporary protection. Take photos from the ground first if it’s safe. Keep receipts for any emergency work.
