About our storm damage roof report in Harold Park
Storms tend to find the weak points on a roof. Slates and tiles slip or blow off, ridge and hip tiles lift, flashings pull away and flat roof coverings can tear. Falling branches can cause damage too. Our report records what has happened to your roof, with photos. Any older wear we can see is recorded as well. Common reasons to book are damaged gutters and fascias and damaged flat roof membrane, across flat roofs, gutters and fascias and chimney stacks.
Older cottages and houses around Harold Park may have roofs with little or no underlay. Once the slates or tiles let water past, there is little to stop it reaching the ceiling. Whether it is long-term wear or recent damage makes a difference to what happens next. In the loft, damp battens or wet insulation are often the first clues.
The written findings come by email, ready to forward to whoever needs them. Basic reports come within 48 hours, Standard within 24–48 hours and Premium on the day.

Why it’s worth a survey now in Harold Park
It helps to get a record soon after the storm, while the damage is fresh. Later weather and temporary repairs can make it harder to see what happened. Around Harold Park, a leak in an older house can soak into timbers and plaster, and that’s a much bigger job than the original defect.

Do you climb onto every roof?
Only if it is safe. We look at everything that can be seen safely: from the ground, from windows, from inside the loft space, from the roof where it’s safe and by drone where it applies. Anything we can’t see is noted in the report.
