Advice
How a storm damage roof report works in Lindford
A storm damage roof report is priced from £150. You get a written report with photos by email. It does not price the repairs, so you will need a roofer’s quote for that. The insurer may still send a loss adjuster of its own. Our report gives you an independent record of the damage and its likely cause. We survey ridges and hips, gutters and fascias and flat roofs, and common reasons people get in touch are damaged gutters and fascias and damaged flat roof membrane.
Houses in smaller places like Lindford can stand more in the open, where driving rain gets into any gap at a ridge, verge or flashing. A leak that only appears in certain weather frequently points to an exposed detail. Let us know when it happens when you contact us. Gutters and downpipes on the exposed side are worth a look as well.
We write the report in plain English, so it makes sense without any roofing background. Each point is backed by a photo where possible.

Common questions in Lindford
Do you cover Lindford?
Yes, Lindford is one of the places we work. The survey and report are the same in Lindford as anywhere else, and visits run on weekdays and weekends.
How do I find out if my home in Lindford is listed?
Check Historic England’s online list first, then ask the council about conservation areas and any Article 4 direction. It matters most if you are planning to re-roof in a different material.
How long have you been surveying roofs?
We have more than 20 years’ experience and have carried out more than 5,000 surveys across London and South East England.
Do you test for asbestos?
No. We do not sample or test for asbestos. The report may flag materials that could contain asbestos on buildings built or refurbished before 2000.
Do you act for me with my insurer?
No. We are not loss adjusters and do not act for you with the insurer. We provide an independent record of the roof, which you can pass to your insurer.
Can I check the roof after a storm?
Safely, from ground level or a window. Don’t use a ladder or go onto the roof. Binoculars can help you see damage from below, and we will record the rest.
How are storm damage reports priced?
Our price is from £150, including VAT. Larger or more complex roofs are quoted for their size. Repair costs aren’t included, so ask a roofer to quote.

When to book a survey in Lindford
Gusts work at anything on a roof that is loose or exposed. Rain can then blow in where slates or tiles have gone. People usually call us after a storm, once they’ve noticed damage or a leak.
Signs worth acting on include:
- Holes or cracks caused by debris
- Slipped or missing slates or tiles
- Cowls or aerials dislodged in the wind
- Damaged gutters and fascias
For landlords with property near Liphook station, a tenant living with a leak needs the cause found, not just the stain painted over.
Before you book anyone
- Are they insured for the work?
- Whether the loft space is looked at, where there is one
- How long they’ve been surveying roofs
- Whether VAT is added on top
Lindford roofs and the weather
Thatch survives on some older buildings in Hampshire’s villages. Older houses in the South East often have slate or clay tile roofs, while many later estates have concrete tiles. Where water gets in depends a good deal on what the roof is made of and how it’s detailed. 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.
Anyone responsible for a site like Weyford Nursery and Primary 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. If you live in an older home near Church of All Saints, lead flashings, valleys and old chimneys are typical places for water to get in.

Checking the roof from the ground
During heavy rain, look at the gutters from ground level or a window. Water spilling over the edge can point to a blockage or a sagging run.
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. Don’t go up yourself.
How the survey changes by roof type
Ridge and hip tiles
A lifted ridge tile can let water into the roof. We photograph and describe the damage.
Clay and concrete tiles
A missing tile lets rain reach the underlay. Each gap is recorded with a photo.

We also survey roofs for businesses and commercial landlords, from shops and offices to industrial units. Bigger roofs take more time, so they’re priced to suit.
