How a storm damage roof report works in Manor Park
If your roof has been damaged, stay safe first. Take photos from the ground or from windows, and do not climb onto the roof. If water is coming in, a roofer can put temporary protection in place. We then record the damage in a report you can pass to your insurer. Hold on to receipts for anything you pay for. If you’ve noticed flat roof edges peeled back and damaged pots on the stack, we can find out what’s behind it, on flat roofs, slate and tile slopes and gutters and fascias alike.
In converted houses and blocks across London, water from a roof can run a long way before it shows on a ceiling, sometimes in a different flat from the one below the defect. Tracing it back matters, both for dealing with the cause and for any insurance claim. We check what we’re given access to in Manor Park, inside and out. Let us know when the water shows, and in what kind of weather.
If any part of the roof couldn’t be seen safely, we say so in the report. You will know exactly what was inspected and what wasn’t.

Manor Park questions
Is my home in Manor Park listed or in a conservation area?
Historic England’s list shows listed buildings, and the local council can tell you about conservation areas. If a home is listed, changes that affect its special interest need listed building consent, and in a conservation area re-roofing in different materials may need permission.
Do you carry out roof surveys in Manor Park?
Yes, Manor Park is within the area we cover. Our area covers London and the South East. You can ring 07833 053749 or use the contact form with the address and a few details, and we will talk through which survey suits.
Is there a set wind speed for storm damage?
Each policy has its own definition. Many treat gusts of about 55 mph as storm conditions, but check your own wording.
Can I challenge a declined storm claim?
The first step is a complaint to your insurer. After that, the Financial Ombudsman Service may be able to look at it. An independent report can add to your evidence, but we cannot say how it will turn out.
Will my insurer pay for an old roof?
Insurers normally 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 inspect my roof with a drone?
Where it’s applicable and safe, yes. We are a CAA-registered drone operator (Flyer ID and Operator ID), flying a sub-250g drone. It’s included in the Drone Roof Survey and, where it applies, the Premium Survey.
How experienced are you?
Over 5,000 surveys so far, over more than 20 years, and 98% of clients are satisfied.
Storm damage roof reports around Manor Park
Valentines Mansion, about 1.6 miles north, is one of the historic houses in the wider area around Manor Park. 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 a listed home or one in a conservation area may need consent for changes of material. Alongside Victorian and Edwardian terraces, outer London has a great many interwar semis, frequently with hipped roofs of clay or concrete tiles. On a semi of that age, the small roofs over the bays, the hip tiles and any later dormer each need their own look. Knowing the roof type helps narrow down where water may be getting in.
For landlords with property near Manor Park station, tracing a leak quickly matters when a tenant is living with it. If you look after a building like Sir John Heron Primary School, on a building that size, finding the source of a drip means looking well beyond the stain.

Why get it checked now?
Knowing whether older wear played a part helps you understand your position. Our report gives an honest view of both, so you know what the roof shows. In Manor Park, as in much of London, water from a roof defect can reach a neighbour’s home as easily as yours: failed flashings and blocked valley gutters can send water into more than one home. Finding it early keeps the work smaller.

Landlord and commercial surveys in Manor Park
For a freeholder or residents’ company, a roof report is a sound basis for a maintenance plan.
For blocks of flats, a roof survey helps managing agents and residents’ management companies plan ahead. Recommendations are set out in order of urgency where relevant.
Common roof problems in Manor Park
Landlords and building managers frequently need a written record after a storm. It helps when explaining damage to a building owner or insurer.
Most people get in touch after spotting one of these:
- Damaged gutters and fascias
- Slipped or missing slates or tiles
- New damp or leaks inside
- Roofs hit by falling trees
For businesses in and around places such as Stratford Centre, a leak can close part of a shop or office, so finding the cause quickly matters.
Before you book any roof surveyor
- How they plan to inspect the roof safely
- If they fly a drone, whether they hold a CAA Flyer ID and Operator ID
- How long the report takes to arrive
- Whether the price includes VAT
The survey, step by step
Before we start, tell us why you’ve booked: buying, a leak, storm damage, new work or just wanting to know where things stand. That way we can focus on what matters to you. Most visits take between one and two hours at most homes, or half a day or so for a commercial building. From the street, a London terrace usually shows only its front slope or parapet, so in Manor Park we work round the house, using the street, the windows, the loft and any safe vantage point behind it. Shared stairs or a basement flat? Tell us who holds the keys.
- 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.
- The report notes whether the damage fits a storm, older wear or both.
- You get a written report to pass to your insurer.
Getting ready for the survey
- Keep pets out of the way during the survey
- Find any records of previous roof work
- If it is not your property yet, arrange access through the agent
How to book
A quick phone call is usually the easiest start: phone 07833 053749 or drop us an email and we will ask a few questions about the roof. The price is agreed before a date is set.
