How a storm damage roof report works in Holmer Green
After a storm, it helps to have a clear record of what happened to your roof. Our report shows the damage in photos and says whether it looks like storm damage, wear and tear, or a mix. We are not loss adjusters, and we cannot say whether a claim will be paid. What you get is an independent view of the roof’s condition. Typical surveys look at roofs hit by falling trees and broken or displaced guttering, across flat roofs, gutters and fascias and slate and tile slopes.
In a smaller place like Holmer Green, some roofs face open ground, where driving rain gets into any gap at a ridge, verge or flashing. If a leak shows only when the wind is in a certain direction, that is a useful clue. Let us know when it happens when you get in touch. Gutters and downpipes on the exposed side are worth a look as well.
The report records the roof as we found it on the day. That makes it useful now and a handy reference later.

What affects the cost of storm damage roof reports
Prices vary from roof to roof, and it comes down to:
- How big the roof is
- How many separate roofs there are, such as extensions, dormers and garages
- Whether it is a home or a commercial building
- If the survey needs thermal imaging or a drone
Bigger, taller and commercial roofs take more time to survey, so the price reflects that. The price is confirmed before you book.
What to let us know when you get in touch
These details help when you contact us:
- The reason for the survey, such as buying, a leak or storm damage
- The property’s address and postcode
- What kind of property and roof it is
- Pictures of the roof from a safe spot, if you have them
Once you know what you need, call 07833 053749 or email us. From there it’s a case of choosing a package, agreeing the price and fixing a day.
What a storm damage roof report doesn’t cover

Holmer Green roofs and the weather
With Hughenden Manor about 2.8 miles west, Holmer Green sits in an area with a long building history. On older houses around here, roofs frequently carry the marks of earlier repairs, from replaced slates to new lead, and a listed home or one in a conservation area may need consent for changes of material. Thatch survives on some older buildings in Buckinghamshire’s villages. In this part of the South East, older roofs are mostly slate or clay tile and many newer ones concrete tile. The covering and its details give the first clues when tracing where water is coming from.
For site and facilities teams at buildings like Holmer Green Senior School, tracing a leak on a big roof starts with where the water appears and works back. If you look after a shop, office or commercial unit, for example near Eden, a leak can close part of a shop or office, so finding the cause quickly matters. For landlords with property near Great Missenden station, finding the cause of a leak fast keeps a tenant’s home dry and the work focused.

Common questions in Holmer Green
Is my home in Holmer Green listed or in a conservation area?
For listing, use Historic England’s list; for conservation areas, ask the council. The answer matters most when a change of material is on the cards.
Do you carry out roof surveys in Holmer Green?
We do. The survey and report are the same in Holmer Green as anywhere else.
Will my insurer pay for an old roof?
Most policies don’t cover wear and tear. Our report records storm damage and any older wear we see, so it’s clear what we found. How the policy applies is up to your insurer.
Do I have to be there for the survey?
Someone needs to let us in if we’re looking inside or in the loft. We’ll talk about access when you book.
Do you act for me with my insurer?
No. We write an independent report, and you decide how to use it. Your insurer may appoint its own loss adjuster.
Which days do you carry out surveys?
We carry out surveys on weekdays and at weekends. To find a day that suits you, ring 07833 053749 or send us an email.
Do you need to get into the loft?
Where it’s relevant to the survey and there’s safe access, yes. A clear path to the hatch helps.
Landlord and commercial surveys in Holmer Green
Freeholders and residents’ companies use a roof report to plan and budget, with the most urgent items set out first.
A roof problem in a let property affects your tenants as well as the building. A survey helps you spot issues early and plan the work around your tenants.
How it works
Every roof is different, but as a rough guide the survey takes roughly 1–2 hours for most homes, depending on how much of the roof was hit. You’re welcome to ask questions while we are there. Parking around Holmer Green is usually easier than in a town centre, but mention lanes, gates or long drives. On bungalows and lower roofs, much can be seen from the ground, with the loft showing the underside.
- We note the date of the storm and the damage you’ve seen.
- We look at the roof from wherever it is safe.
- We record and photograph the damage.
- The report notes whether the damage fits a storm, older wear or both.
- We send you the report by email for your insurer.
Preparing for the visit
- Tell us about parking before the day
- If it is not your property yet, arrange access through the agent
- Gather any invoices or paperwork from past roof work

Advice
What you can safely check yourself
It helps to keep a record: when leaks happen, ground-level photos and any past roof work. Share it with us when you book, as it helps us focus the survey.
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. Leave anything above ground level to a survey.
Roof by roof
Flat roof coverings
On flat roofs, storms can lift edges and tear membranes. Damage is photographed and described.
Clay and concrete tiles
Older tiles held only by nibs, without nails or clips, can lift more easily. We record what we can see of the fixings.
