How a storm damage roof report works in Hazeley
If your roof has been damaged, stay safe first. Take photos from the ground or from windows, and don’t climb onto the roof. If water is coming in, a roofer can put temporary protection in place. We then record the damage in a report you can pass to your insurer. Hold on to receipts for anything you pay for. We survey flashings, gutters and fascias and flat roofs, and the problems we are asked to look at most are torn or lifted flat roof coverings and loose or torn flashings.
Roofs in small places like Hazeley often stand in the open, so storms hit ridges, verges and chimneys hard. Once water gets into older walls, it takes a long time to dry, which makes finding the cause quickly worthwhile. A written record also helps if you need to explain it to anyone else.
The written findings come by email, ready to forward to whoever needs them. Turnaround is within 48 hours for Basic, 24–48 hours for Standard and same day for Premium.

Questions from Hazeley
Will you come out to Hazeley?
Yes, Hazeley is on our map. Villages and rural addresses get the same survey as a town house, with the route planned beforehand.
Is Hazeley in the area you cover?
Yes. We work right across London and the South East, and Hazeley is part of that. Just ring 07833 053749 or send us an email and let us know about the property, and we will talk through which survey suits.
Does your report mean my claim will be accepted?
We can’t say whether a claim will be paid. Insurers decide claims on their own policy wording. Our report gives you an independent record of the damage and its likely cause.
Do you need to get into the loft?
If it is needed and safe to reach, yes. We look for staining, damp, daylight and signs of movement.
Is wear and tear covered by insurance?
Insurers normally exclude wear and tear. Our report gives an honest view of what’s recent damage and what’s older wear. The claim decision is your insurer’s.
Do you test for asbestos?
No. We do not sample or test for asbestos. The report may flag materials that could contain asbestos on buildings built or refurbished before 2000, with a recommendation to have a specialist asbestos surveyor check before it is disturbed.
How long have you been surveying roofs?
Over 20 years and more than 5,000 surveys.
The survey, step by step
The aim of the visit is simple: to look at the roof as closely as is safe and record what we find. Notes and photos go into the written report. The visit usually takes roughly 1–2 hours at a house, and longer if the damage is spread across a large roof. In a hamlet or village like Hazeley, a postcode does not always lead to the right gate, so a few directions are welcome. After that, the survey runs as it would anywhere.
- You tell us 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
- Point out any leaks or damp patches
- Buyers: confirm access with the estate agent or seller
- Clear the way to the loft hatch
Booking a survey
Getting a price is simple: just call 07833 053749 or use the contact form, tell us about the property and we’ll explain which survey suits. The price is agreed up front.

Practical tips
Most of what helps is simple and safe from the ground. A few suggestions:
- Photograph the damage safely from below
- Check how your policy defines a storm
- Report the damage to your insurer as soon as you can
- Write down when the storm hit and when you noticed damage
After the visit, we write up the report with photographs of each area of damage. It sets out what is damaged, the likely cause and any signs of older wear. Turnaround is within 48 hours for Basic, 24 to 48 hours for Standard and the same day for Premium.
A well-maintained roof stands up to storms better. Fix slipped slates, loose ridges and lifted flashings when you spot them.
Should I look at the roof myself first?
A lot can be seen from the ground. Binoculars help you spot slipped slates or tiles, gaps along the ridge and a leaning stack. Please don’t climb up for a closer look.
Look up at the roof after a storm, from ground level: broken slates or tiles in the garden, gaps along the ridge or loose lead are signs to note. Do not go up yourself.
Different roofs, different checks
Chimney stacks
High winds can loosen pots, cowls and aerials on stacks. We record any damage we can see.
Ridge and hip tiles
A lifted ridge tile can let water into the roof. Each one is recorded with photos.

Storm damage roof reports in Hazeley: local notes
Thatch survives on some older buildings in Hampshire’s villages. Slate and clay tile are the usual coverings on older South East houses, with concrete tiles on many later estates. Knowing the roof type helps narrow down where water may be getting in. The wider area around Hazeley has a long history of building, with Stratfield Saye House about 3.1 miles north-west. 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.
If your house is among the older ones in the streets near Mattingley Church, leaks on older roofs often start at lead flashings, valleys or around old chimney stacks. If you let a flat or house near Winchfield station, a clear finding on where water gets in helps you brief a roofer straight away.
