About our storm damage roof report in Littleton Common
A storm damage roof report is an independent record of the damage to your roof after a storm. We record each area of damage, photograph it and note the likely cause. It is yours to pass to your insurer. Insurers decide claims on their own policy wording. We are not loss adjusters and can’t say whether a claim will be paid. We survey gutters and fascias, chimney stacks and slate and tile slopes, and people most often book us about flashings pulled away from walls or stacks and damaged ridges and hips.
Somewhere as small as Littleton Common, older roofs have frequently been repaired many times. A new leak may be fresh damage or the latest sign of long-term wear, and the difference matters, especially to an insurer. We check what can safely be seen and set out what we find. Older walls and timbers hold water for a long time, so it’s worth finding the cause soon.
It is not only a list of defects. For each finding, it explains what it is, why it matters and what we’d recommend, so you can plan your next steps.

Practical tips
Most of what helps is simple and safe from the ground. A few suggestions:
- Arrange temporary cover with a roofer if rain is getting in
- Report the damage to your insurer as soon as you can
- Keep a note of the date of the storm
- Keep any slates, tiles or debris that fall, if it is safe to do so
Your insurer may send a loss adjuster to look at the damage. Our report gives you an independent record alongside theirs.
Keep the roof in good order between storms. Have loose slates, tiles and flashings seen to promptly.
How we price storm damage roof reports
Several things affect the price of a survey:
- House, block, shop or office
- How complicated the roof is, with its valleys, chimneys and parapets
- Building height and the viewpoints available
- Extra roofs, like extensions, dormers or garages
Bigger, taller and commercial roofs take more time to survey, so they’re priced to match. You’ll know the figure before booking.
Helping us price your survey
We’ll normally ask about:
- Where water is showing inside, if it is
- How the loft is reached, if there is one
- Why you want a survey: buying, a leak, a storm or new work
- The property’s address and postcode
Not sure which survey you need? The easiest way is to phone 07833 053749 or use the contact form and describe the roof and what’s worrying you. We will talk you through the options and what they cost.
Littleton Common questions
Do you cover Littleton Common?
We do. The survey and report are the same in Littleton Common as anywhere else.
Does a conservation area affect roof work in Littleton Common?
You can check whether a building is listed on Historic England’s list, and your council can tell you if it is in a conservation area. Listed building consent is needed for changes that affect a listed building’s special interest, and conservation areas can limit changes of roofing material.
How do I arrange a storm damage roof report in Littleton Common?
Simply phone 07833 053749 or use the contact form. After a few questions, we confirm the price and fix a day.
Do you act for me with my insurer?
No. We are not loss adjusters, and we don’t negotiate claims. We give you an independent report of the damage, which you can pass to your insurer.
Is wear and tear covered by insurance?
Wear and tear is not usually covered. We describe what looks like fresh storm damage and what looks older. The claim decision is your insurer’s.
Do you climb onto every roof?
Not always. Some roofs are too steep or fragile to walk on safely. We use safe viewpoints, the roof space and a drone where it applies, and the report records anything we couldn’t see.
I live in a flat. Can you survey the roof?
Yes, if the freeholder or managing agent agrees access. We check the parts we’re given access to.

How the survey works
We don’t take risks to get a closer look. Everything that can be seen safely is inspected, and anything we can’t see is noted in the report. Most visits take about one to two hours for a house, though large, tall or awkward roofs take more time. Around Littleton Common, older homes can have small or awkward roof spaces, so it helps to know whether there’s a loft hatch and how easy it is to reach. Only areas that can be reached safely are inspected.
- We note the date of the storm and the damage you’ve seen.
- We check the roof from wherever it’s safe.
- We record and photograph the damage.
- We note the likely cause and any signs of older wear.
- You get a written report to pass to your insurer.
Preparing for the visit
- Tell us where we can park nearby
- Keep pets out of the way during the survey
- If the roof is shared, arrange access with whoever manages the building
Booking a survey
Photos help, if you have them. Pictures from ground level or a window are fine; never climb up to get a better view. To send them or to book, phone 07833 053749 or use the contact form.

What we are asked to look at in Littleton Common
A storm often finds a roof’s existing weak spots. Corroded nails on slate roofs, worn mortar on ridges and old flashings can all give way. We record recent damage alongside older defects.
It’s worth booking a survey if you’ve seen:
- Loose or broken chimney pots and cowls
- Flat roof edges peeled back
- Gutters pulled loose in the wind
- Stains appearing after strong winds
Landlords with a home close to Upper Halliford station may find that tracing a leak quickly matters when a tenant is living with it.
Before booking any roof surveyor
- Whether VAT is added on top
- Which parts of the roof they’ll actually see
- What exactly goes into their report
- Are they insured for the work?
Honest limits
It helps to know what a survey will not do before you book:
- What your policy covers, which depends on its wording
- A price for the repairs
- Damage hidden under coverings or inside the structure, without opening up

Littleton Common roofs and the weather
The wider area around Littleton Common has a long history of building, with Hampton Court Palace about 4.8 miles east. Older homes in the wider area often have features worth a closer look, like lead valleys, tall stacks and roofs that have been patched over the years, and the council can say whether a home is in a conservation area. Many older homes in Surrey have handmade clay tiles and tile-hung upper walls. Horsham stone slab roofs survive on some old buildings in Surrey. The covering and its details give the first clues when tracing where water is coming from.
Take a building like Ashford CofE Primary School: tracing a leak on a big roof starts with where the water appears and works back. Homes near green spaces like Sunbury Park can get more leaves in their gutters in autumn, and an overflowing gutter soon means a wet wall.
