Storm damage roof reports for homes and businesses in Hascombe
We inspect the roof from wherever it can safely be seen: the ground, windows and vantage points, the loft where there is access, and the roof itself where that’s 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. We’re frequently asked to look into damage from fallen branches or debris and stains appearing after strong winds, across ridges and hips, slate and tile slopes and chimney stacks.
Many homes in small places like Hascombe face open ground, so storms hit ridges, verges and chimneys hard. Damp in old stone, brick or timber walls is slow to dry out, so it pays to find the cause quickly. A written record also helps if you need to explain it to anyone else.
How fast the report arrives depends on the package: Basic within 48 hours, Standard in 24–48 hours and Premium the same day.

What we look for on each type of roof
Chimney stacks
Flashings around stacks can lift in strong winds. Loose flashings are recorded.
Slate roofs
Slates can slip or blow off in a storm, particularly where the nails have corroded. Our report notes moved slates and any sign of older corrosion.
Common questions in Hascombe
Does a conservation area affect roof work in Hascombe?
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. If a home is listed, changes that affect its special interest need listed building consent, and in a conservation area re-roofing in different materials may need permission.
Do you cover Hascombe?
Yes, Hascombe is within the area we cover. We survey roofs across London and South East England. You can call 07833 053749 or email us with the address and a few details, and we’ll talk through which survey suits.
What do I do if water is coming in?
Emergency temporary protection is a job for a roofer. If it’s safe, take photos before it goes on. Our report then records the roof.
Do you need to get into the loft?
Where it is relevant to the survey and there’s safe access, yes. Please clear anything stored under the hatch.
Does this replace a RICS home survey?
No. Our survey is a roof survey, not a RICS Level 2 or Level 3 survey of the whole building. It focuses on the roof and can sit alongside a RICS survey.
How do I arrange a storm damage roof report in Hascombe?
The quickest way is to call 07833 053749 or email us. Tell us the address and a little about the roof, and we will recommend the right survey. Surveys run on any day of the week.
How long will you be at the property?
It usually takes about one to two hours at a house, and longer if the damage is spread across a large roof. The written report follows by email, on the timescale of your package.

What we do, step by step
On the day, we start by asking what you’ve noticed and what you’d like to know. After that, we look at everything we can see safely, from ground level, from windows, in the loft space and by drone where applicable. The survey usually takes about one to two hours for most houses, while a commercial roof takes nearer three to four hours. In a hamlet or village like Hascombe, a postcode doesn’t 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.
- We record fresh damage and older defects.
- You receive the written report with photographs.
Getting ready for the survey
- Let us know where we can park nearby
- Have keys ready for side gates, garages or roof access doors
- Leave a clear route to the loft
Getting a price
Our phone lines are open seven days a week, including Saturdays and Sundays. To book or ask a question, ring 07833 053749 or email us.

Practical tips
These tips come from what we see on roofs every week, before and after a survey:
- Hold on to fallen pieces of the roof where you can
- Read your policy wording on storm damage
- Don’t go onto the roof to take pictures
- Report the damage to your insurer as soon as you can
Your insurer may send a loss adjuster to look at the damage. You’ll have your own independent record to refer to.
Keep gutters and outlets clear so heavy rain can drain away. Overflowing gutters can make storm damage worse.
Why it is worth a survey now in Hascombe
If a roofer needs to make the roof safe, take photos first if you can do so safely from ground level. Those photos show the damage as it was. Older cottages and farmhouses around Hascombe can have roof timbers that have been there a very long time, and water through a failed covering can rot timber if it is left.
To find out what your survey will cost, ring 07833 053749 or drop us an email with the address and some details. We will confirm the figure before booking.

Period homes nearby can have lead valleys, tall chimneys and a patchwork of past repairs, and the council can say whether a home is in a conservation area. Older houses across Surrey often have handmade clay tiles, and many have tile-hanging. Horsham stone slab roofs survive on some old buildings in Surrey.
