Storm damage roof reports for homes and businesses in Lower Cadsden
After a storm, it’s useful to have a clear record of what happened to your roof. We photograph the damage, describe it and note whether it fits storm damage, older wear or both. We’re not loss adjusters and can’t tell you if your claim will succeed. What we give you is an independent record of the roof. If you are worried about torn or lifted flat roof coverings and new damp or leaks inside, we can find out what’s behind it, whatever the roof.
In a village or hamlet like Lower Cadsden, older cottages and farmhouses often have roofs that have been patched over many years. A new leak may be fresh damage or the latest sign of long-term wear, and the difference matters, particularly to an insurer. We look at whatever is safely visible 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.
Pictures do a lot of the work in our reports, because a photo of a cracked flashing says more than a paragraph. If something couldn’t be seen safely, the report is clear about it.

Why get it checked now?
If the damage is partly wear and tear, it is better to know. Our report gives an honest view of both, so there are no surprises later. In a place like Lower Cadsden, a barn or garage roof left to fail puts whatever is inside at risk. A quick look before winter can save a lot.

Do you need a storm damage roof report in Lower Cadsden?
Gusts work at anything on a roof that is loose or exposed. Driving rain then gets in through the gaps. Most people book a report soon after a storm, when they’ve seen damage or water has come in.
A survey makes sense if you’ve noticed:
- Damage from fallen branches or debris
- Damaged flat roof membrane
- Stains appearing after strong winds
- Cowls or aerials dislodged in the wind
The streets around a church such as Church of St Nicholas are frequently among the oldest in a place, and if your house is among the older ones nearby, lead flashings, valleys and old chimneys are typical places for water to get in.
Questions to ask before booking
- Whether the roof space is looked at, where there is one
- What the report includes, and whether it has photos
- What follow-up you get after the report
- If they fly a drone, whether they hold a CAA Flyer ID and Operator ID
Should I look at the roof myself first?
It is useful to keep a record: dates of leaks, photos from ground level and any work done on the roof. Share it with us when you book, as it helps us focus the survey.
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. Leave anything above ground level to a survey.
What a storm damage roof report looks like in Lower Cadsden
A number of Buckinghamshire villages keep thatched roofs on their older buildings. Older houses in the South East often have slate or clay tile roofs, while many later estates have concrete tiles. Different coverings let water in at different points, which shapes where the search starts. 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.
Anyone responsible for a site like Monks Risborough CofE Primary School will know that on a building that size, finding the source of a drip means looking well beyond the stain. If you let a flat or house near Monks Risborough station, finding the cause of a leak fast keeps a tenant’s home dry and the work focused.

How much is a storm damage roof report?
Storm damage roof report starts from £150, including VAT. Larger or more complex roofs are quoted for their size. It doesn’t include repair costs, so you will need a roofer’s quote for those.
Do you climb onto every roof?
Only when it’s safe. Safe viewpoints, the loft space and a drone where it applies cover most of what’s needed, and the report notes anything we couldn’t see.
Is wear and tear covered by insurance?
Insurers typically exclude wear and tear. Our report gives an honest view of what’s recent damage and what’s older wear. Your insurer decides the claim.
Can you survey a shared roof?
Yes, as long as access is agreed. Roofs over flats are often shared, so the building owner or managing agent needs to agree access. We inspect only the parts we’re allowed to reach.
Is this an asbestos survey?
No. We don’t sample or test for asbestos. The report may flag materials that could contain asbestos on buildings built or refurbished before 2000.

The survey, step by step
Where it is relevant and can be reached safely, the roof space is checked as well as the outside. In the loft, the signs we look for are staining, damp, daylight and sagging, as far as the space allows. The whole visit typically takes about one to two hours at a house, and longer if the damage is spread across a large roof. In a hamlet or village like Lower Cadsden, a postcode does not always lead to the right gate, so a few directions, or a note of a nearby landmark, help us arrive on time. The visit itself is the same as anywhere else.
- We note the date of the storm and the damage you’ve seen.
- We check the roof from wherever it is safe.
- Each area of damage is photographed and described.
- The report notes whether the damage fits a storm, older wear or both.
- We send you the report by email for your insurer.
How to prepare
- Make a note of anything you’d like us to look at
- For flats, make sure roof access has been agreed
- Show us where any leaks or stains appear
