About our storm damage roof report in Letcombe Regis

High winds typically 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. We record the damage on your roof and photograph each part. Any older wear we can see is recorded as well. If you are worried about flashings pulled away from walls or stacks and damage from fallen branches or debris, a survey will tell you what’s going on, whatever the roof.

Roofs in small places like Letcombe Regis frequently 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 record with photographs is useful if you need to show the damage 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.

Leave it or get it looked at?

Before temporary repairs, photograph the damage from ground level if it’s safe. Those photos show the damage as it was. In a small place like Letcombe Regis, homes can be exposed to wind and rain, which finds any gap, and older walls, once damp, take a long time to dry.

One thing that affects the price is the package: Basic from £150, Standard from £250 or Premium from £400, all with VAT included. The roof’s size, height and access matter as well.

What you get with us

  • Satisfaction rate of 98%
  • Insured for professional indemnity and public liability
  • Packages from £150, with VAT included
  • Plain-English reports with photos

Signs you need a storm damage roof report in Letcombe Regis

Some people book because a claim has been questioned. An independent report gives you another view of the roof. We can’t say whether the decision will change.

Most people get in touch after spotting something like this:

  • Roofs hit by falling trees
  • Loose or torn flashings
  • Slates and tiles blown off the roof
  • Damaged pots on the stack

If you live near a park such as Betjeman Millennium Park, or anywhere with mature trees, autumn leaves can block gutters and valleys, and blocked gutters overflow and soak walls.

Questions to ask before you book

  • Whether any drone flown is registered with the CAA
  • How long they’ve been surveying roofs
  • What the report includes, and whether it has photographs
  • Is VAT included in the price?

What’s in a roof survey

How we price storm damage roof reports

Survey packages start from £150, with VAT included. What you pay for your roof depends on:

  • The type of building, from a house to a block or an office
  • Whether you choose the Basic, Standard or Premium Survey
  • How many separate roofs there are, like extensions, dormers and garages
  • Any need for thermal images or a drone flight

For a price for your roof in Letcombe Regis, phone 07833 053749 or send us an email and let us know about the roof. The price is agreed before a date is set.

Getting in touch

There’s no need for technical words. Just tell us:

  • Whether there’s a loft hatch, a shared roof or tricky access
  • Your postcode, so we can check access and travel
  • What made you get in touch
  • What kind of property and roof it is

When you are ready to go ahead, phone 07833 053749 or email us. We’ll suggest a package, agree the price and find a date, weekday or weekend.

Can I check my roof myself?

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.

Your own check is a good start, but it isn’t a survey. From ground level, valleys, flashings and the backs of chimneys are frequently out of sight, and those are details a survey looks at closely.

What a storm damage roof report doesn’t cover

Every survey has limits, and it’s better to know them up front. Bear these in mind:

  • A price for the repairs
  • The work of a loss adjuster appointed by your insurer
  • What’s beneath slates, tiles or membranes

If in doubt, call 07833 053749 or email us and we will point you to the right survey before you book. The full list of what we check.

What this survey covers

  • Ridges and hips
  • Chimney stacks
  • Slate and tile slopes
  • Gutters and fascias
  • Flashings
  • Flat roofs

Letcombe Regis questions

Do you carry out roof surveys in Letcombe Regis?

Yes, Letcombe Regis is one of the places we work. Every survey there gets the same written report with photographs, and visits run on weekdays and weekends.

Is Letcombe Regis within the area you cover?

Yes, we do. We cover the whole of London and South East England, from towns to the smallest villages. Longer journeys are simply planned beforehand.

How many surveys have you done?

We have more than 20 years’ experience and have completed over 5,000 surveys across London and South East England.

Will you walk on the roof?

Not always. Some roofs are too steep or fragile to walk on safely. Safe viewpoints, the loft and a drone where applicable let us see the rest.

How do I arrange a storm damage roof report in Letcombe Regis?

To book, phone 07833 053749 or drop us an email with the address, the type of property and what’s prompted the survey. We will confirm the price and find a day that suits.

I live in a flat. Can you survey the roof?

Yes. A shared roof needs access agreed first, with the freeholder or managing agent. Tell us about it as you book and we’ll explain what’s needed.

What does a storm damage report cost?

Our reports start from £150. Commercial and larger roofs are quoted on size. The report does not include repair costs.

How it works

On the day, we begin with a quick chat about the roof and anything that’s worrying you. After that, we check everything we can see safely, using the ground, windows, the loft and a drone where applicable. The survey typically takes an hour or two at a typical home, while a commercial roof takes nearer three to four hours. Older rural homes like those around Letcombe Regis can have a main roof, lower lean-to roofs and outbuildings all joined together. We work round each section in turn, from the safest viewpoints, and anything we can’t see is noted.

  1. We note the date of the storm and the damage you’ve seen.
  2. We check the roof from wherever it is safe.
  3. We record and photograph the damage.
  4. We note the likely cause and any signs of older wear.
  5. We send you the report by email for your insurer.

How to prepare

  • Leave a clear route to the loft
  • Check we can get to the back of the property
  • Have any paperwork from past roof work to hand

Advice

Storm damage roof reports in Letcombe Regis: local notes

What can be done to an older roof may depend on listing or a conservation area. The council is the place to check, along with Historic England’s list, before anyone quotes for re-roofing. West Oxfordshire’s older buildings often carry Cotswold stone slates, and a few villages in the county keep their thatch. Slate and clay tile are the usual coverings on older South East houses, with concrete tiles on many later estates. Where water gets in depends a good deal on what the roof is made of and how it’s detailed.

For an older house near a landmark such as Church of St Andrew, old mortar, worn lead and slipped slates are the usual suspects when water gets in. For site and facilities teams at buildings such as St Nicholas CofE Primary School, water through a big roof can travel a long way before it drips, so the search covers more than the obvious spot.
