About our storm damage roof report in Hurley
The Financial Ombudsman asks three questions when it looks at storm complaints: whether there were storm conditions around the date, whether the damage fits a storm, and whether the storm was the main cause. Our report focuses on the second and third points. You or your insurer can check the weather for the date. Typical surveys look at cowls or aerials dislodged in the wind and holes or cracks caused by debris, across ridges and hips, slate and tile slopes and chimney stacks.
Roofs in small places like Hurley often stand in the open, where storms hit ridges, verges and chimneys hardest. 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.
Most points in the report come with a picture, so you can see each defect rather than just read about it. If something couldn’t be seen safely, the report is clear about it.

Should I look at the roof myself first?
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. Leave anything above ground level to a survey.
Keep a simple record: when leaks happen, ground-level photos and any past roof work. Send it with your enquiry, as it helps us focus the survey.
Why get it checked now?
If a roofer needs to make the roof safe, take photos first if you can do so safely from the ground. Those photos show the damage as it was. For older village homes like those around Hurley, the right replacement materials are not always easy to find quickly. Spotting a problem early leaves room to find them.
Price depends partly on the package: from £150 for Basic, £250 for Standard and £400 for Premium, with VAT included. Size, height and access can affect the price too.

Different roofs, different checks
Slate roofs
In high winds, slates can slip or go, often where nails have rusted. We record which slates have moved and any signs of older nail fatigue.
Flat roof coverings
Branches and debris can damage flat roofs or block outlets. Any damage is recorded with photos.
Tips that help
Getting the most from a storm damage roof report starts before we arrive and carries on afterwards. Some tips:
- Arrange temporary cover with a roofer if rain is getting in
- Keep a note of the date of the storm
- Keep fallen slates or tiles as evidence if safe
- Tell your insurer about the damage promptly
Once we have been, the findings are written up with photos. It sets out what is damaged, the likely cause and any signs of older wear. Basic reports arrive within 48 hours, Standard reports in 24 to 48 hours and Premium reports the same day.
Keep gutters and outlets clear so heavy rain can drain away. Overflowing gutters can make storm damage worse.
Questions from Hurley
Do you cover Hurley?
We do. The survey and report are the same in Hurley as anywhere else.
Is Hurley within the area you cover?
We do. Villages and rural addresses get the same survey as a town house, with the route planned beforehand.
Can you survey at the weekend?
We survey seven days a week: Monday to Friday, Saturdays and Sundays. Let us know which days suit you when you book.
Is this an asbestos survey?
No. Asbestos surveys and sampling aren’t something we do. Where a material might contain it, such as old cement sheets on a building from before 2000, the report flags it.
What do I do if water is coming in?
Emergency temporary protection is a job for a roofer. If it is safe, take photos before it goes on. Our report then records the roof.
How many surveys have you done?
Over 5,000 surveys so far, over more than 20 years.
How much is a storm damage roof report?
A storm damage report starts from £150. Commercial and larger roofs are quoted on size. The report does not include repair costs.

How it works
When we arrive, we begin with a quick chat about the roof and anything that is worrying you. We then inspect everything that can be seen safely, from ground level, from windows, in the roof space and by drone where applicable. Most surveys take roughly 1–2 hours for a house, with bigger or more complicated roofs taking longer. Somewhere like Hurley needs a little journey planning: tell us about narrow lanes, gates, long drives and where we can park. The roof is looked at from ground level, from windows, from the loft where there’s safe access and from the roof where it’s safe.
- You let us know when the storm was and what damage you’ve seen.
- We inspect the roof from safe viewpoints and from the loft where there is access.
- The damage is recorded with photographs, area by area.
- The likely cause is recorded, along with any evidence of older wear.
- You get a written report you can pass to your insurer.
How to prepare
- Agree roof access with the managing agent if it’s shared
- Have any questions written down, so nothing gets missed
- Unlock side gates and any roof access doors

Storm damage roof reports around Hurley
The wider area around Hurley has a long history of building, with Harleyford Manor about 0.6 miles north. On older houses around here, roofs often carry the marks of earlier repairs, from replaced slates to new lead. In this part of the South East, older roofs are mostly slate or clay tile and many newer ones concrete tile, and flat-roofed additions turn up almost everywhere. Where water gets in depends a good deal on what the roof is made of and how it’s detailed.
If your house is among the older ones in the streets near Church of St Mary, lead flashings, valleys and old chimneys are typical places for water to get in. Anyone responsible for a site like Danesfield School will know that water through a big roof can travel a long way before it drips, so the search covers more than the obvious spot. For landlords with property near Marlow station, tracing a leak quickly matters when a tenant is living with it.
