Questions from Leagreen
Is Leagreen within the area you cover?
We do. Villages and rural addresses get the same survey as a town house.
How do I find out if my home in Leagreen is listed?
Your council is the best source, with Historic England’s list for listed buildings. Both listing and conservation areas can limit changes of roofing material.
Will you walk on the roof?
Not unless it is safe. Most of what we need can be seen from safe viewpoints, the loft and, where applicable, a drone, and the report notes anything we couldn’t see.
Will you check the loft?
Yes, where the survey calls for it and there is safe access. We look for staining, damp, daylight and signs of movement, as far as the space allows.
How do I book a survey in Leagreen?
Just phone 07833 053749 or email us. We will ask a few questions, confirm the price and agree a date, weekday or weekend.
Is it the same as a RICS Level 2 or Level 3 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, so it sits alongside a building survey rather than replacing it.
Do you carry out surveys on Saturdays and Sundays?
Surveys can be booked for any day of the week: Monday to Friday, Saturdays and Sundays. Just let us know the days that suit you.
About our storm damage roof report in Leagreen
High winds normally affect the parts of a roof that are already exposed or loose. Typical damage includes lost slates and tiles, lifted ridges, loose flashings and torn flat roof coverings. Falling branches can cause damage too. Our report records what has happened to your roof, with photos. Any older wear we can see is recorded as well. If you are worried about ridge tiles that have come loose and slipped or missing slates or tiles, we can find out what’s behind it, on gutters and fascias, flashings and flat roofs alike.
Somewhere as small as Leagreen, older roofs have often been repaired many times. A new leak may be fresh damage or the latest sign of long-term wear, which matters if you’re thinking of an insurance claim. We check everything that’s safely in view and set out what we find. Damp in old walls and timbers is slow to dry, so the sooner the cause is found the better.
You can share the report with anyone who needs it: a seller or estate agent, an insurer, a roofer, a builder or a managing agent, whichever applies.

Knowing whether older wear played a part helps you understand your position. We record storm damage and older defects, so you know what the roof shows. Older cottages and farmhouses around Leagreen can have roof timbers that have been there a very long time, where water from a failed roof can cause rot if it is left.

Advice
Should I look at the roof myself first?
A DIY look is useful, but it isn’t a survey. From ground level, valleys, flashings and the backs of chimneys are often out of sight, and those are details a survey looks at closely.
After strong wind, take a look from the pavement or garden: broken slates or tiles in the garden, gaps along the ridge or loose lead are signs to note. Do not go up yourself.
Storm damage roof reports around Leagreen
The coast is about 1 mile or less from Leagreen, so storms can arrive with strong gusts off the water. What counts as a storm is set by each policy, frequently gusts of around 55 mph, and the insurer makes the decision. Highcliffe Castle, about 4.5 miles west, is one of the historic houses in the wider area around Leagreen. On older houses around here, roofs frequently carry the marks of earlier repairs, from replaced slates to new lead, and any change of roofing material on a listed home needs checking with the council first.
Take a building like Hordle CofE (VA) Primary School: on a building that size, finding the source of a drip means looking well beyond the stain. If your home is one of the older ones in the streets near Church of All Saints, old mortar, worn lead and slipped slates are the usual suspects when water gets in. For landlords with property near New Milton station, a clear finding on where water gets in helps you brief a roofer right away.
