Storm damage roof reports for homes and businesses in Hunton
After a storm, safety comes first. Photograph the damage from the ground or a window, and never climb up. If water is coming in, a roofer can put temporary protection in place. Our report records the damage so you have an independent record to give your insurer. Keep receipts for any emergency work. If you’ve noticed flashings pulled away from walls or stacks and cowls or aerials dislodged in the wind, we can find out what’s behind it.
For a small place like Hunton, the inspection is the same as anywhere: the journey and access are just planned ahead of time. Let us know where the water shows, when it appears and anything you’ve noticed outside, along with any repairs done before. Photographs of the stain and of the roof from outside are helpful too.
The report works through the roof section by section, from the main slopes down to the gutters and outlets. It records what’s sound as well as what isn’t.

Checking the roof from the ground
After strong wind, take a look from the pavement or garden: pieces of tile or slate on the ground, a gap in the ridge or a lifted flashing are all worth noting. Do not go up yourself.
You can learn a lot from ground level. With binoculars, look for slipped or missing slates and tiles, gaps along the ridge and leaning chimneys. Please do not climb up for a closer look.

Where a roof is shared: access has to be agreed with whoever owns or manages the building. Mention it when you contact us and we’ll plan the visit with that in mind.
Why get it checked now?
It helps to get a record soon after the storm, while the damage is fresh. Further storms and quick fixes can make the picture less clear. Around Hunton, older homes often have old roof timbers, where water from a failed roof can cause rot if it’s left.
Prices quoted always include VAT, and the report isn’t charged as an extra. Our price is from £150, including VAT. Where your roof sits in the range depends on its size, height and access.
Why book with us
- A photo-illustrated written report
- Packages from £150, with VAT included

Storm damage roof reports in Hunton: local notes
Listing and conservation areas can both shape what roof work is allowed on an older home. The council is the place to check, along with Historic England’s list, before anyone quotes for re-roofing. A number of Hampshire villages keep thatched roofs on their older buildings. In this part of the South East, older roofs are mostly slate or clay tile and many newer ones concrete tile. Each of these roof types has its own typical places for water to get in.
The streets around a church like Church of St James are frequently among the oldest in a place, and if yours is one of the older homes nearby, the leak may come from a chimney, a valley or tired lead rather than the covering itself. Landlords with a home close to Micheldever station may find that tracing a leak quickly matters when a tenant is living with it.
Hunton is about 7 miles north of Winchester, in Hampshire. From houses to flats and shops in Hunton, we can survey the roof. Our area takes in places right across Hampshire, large and small. We also survey roofs in Southampton.

What we do, step by step
We work from the outside in: outside views come first, then the roof space if there is safe access. All told, expect an hour or two for most homes, depending on how much of the roof was hit. For a village or hamlet like Hunton, the journey is planned ahead of time: let us know about narrow lanes, gates, long drives and where we can park. The roof is looked at from the ground, from windows, from the loft where there’s safe access and from the roof where it’s safe.
- First we go through when the storm hit and what you’ve noticed.
- We look at the roof from wherever it is safe.
- Each area of damage is photographed and described.
- The report notes whether the damage fits a storm, older wear or both.
- You get a written report to pass to your insurer.
How to prepare
- If it is not your property yet, arrange access through the agent
- Clear the way to the loft hatch
- For flats, make sure roof access has been agreed
How to book
We survey roofs seven days a week. To arrange a day that suits you, ring 07833 053749 or send us an email with the address and the days you’d prefer.

Your questions about storm damage roof reports in Hunton
Do you cover Hunton?
Yes. We cover the whole of London and South East England, and Hunton is part of that. You can ring 07833 053749 or drop us an email with the address and some details, and we’ll talk through which survey suits.
How do I find out if my home in Hunton is listed?
Start with Historic England’s list for listing and your council for conservation areas. It is worth checking before planning roof work, as both can affect what’s allowed.
How do I arrange a storm damage roof report in Hunton?
To arrange a survey, phone 07833 053749 or email us with the address, the type of property and what’s prompted the survey. We’ll confirm the price and find a day that suits.
Will you deal with the insurance company for me?
No. We’re not loss adjusters, and we do not negotiate claims. We give you an independent report of the damage, which you can pass to your insurer.
What does a storm damage report cost?
Our price is from £150, including VAT. Bigger roofs are quoted on size and access. It does not include repair costs, so you’ll need a roofer’s quote for those.
Will my insurer pay for an old roof?
Wear and tear is not normally covered. We describe what looks like fresh storm damage and what looks older. Your insurer decides the claim.
Can you tell me if my claim will be paid?
That is not something we can promise. Insurers decide claims on their own policy wording. Our report gives you an independent record of the damage and its likely cause.
