Storm damage roof reports near Mattingley

Leave it or get it looked at?

A few slipped slates can soon lead to wet timbers. Getting it recorded and repaired sooner is normally better. Matching old materials, like handmade tiles or stone slates, can take time to source. Spotting a problem early leaves room to find them.

Prices start from £150, inc. VAT, for a Basic Survey. Standard is from £250 and Premium from £400. We confirm the price for your survey before you book.

Why book with us

  • A sub-250g drone, flown with a CAA Flyer ID and Operator ID
  • Insured for professional indemnity and public liability

  • Package prices that include VAT

Storm damage roof report in Mattingley: what you get

Most policies do not cover wear and tear. So it matters whether the damage came from the storm or from a roof that was already worn. We note signs of each: fresh breaks and recently moved slates or tiles, and older problems such as corroded nails or worn mortar. We describe what we see, whichever way it points. How the policy applies is for your insurer to decide. If you’re worried about damaged flat roof membrane and damaged gutters and fascias, we can find out what’s behind it.

Many homes in small places like Mattingley face open ground, where storms hit ridges, verges and chimneys hardest. Once water gets into older walls, it takes a long time to dry, so it pays to find the cause quickly. A record with photographs is useful if you need to show the damage to anyone else.

Report times depend on the survey you book: the Basic Survey within 48 hours, the Standard Survey in 24 to 48 hours and the Premium Survey on the same day.

Common questions in Mattingley

Is Mattingley in the area you cover?

Yes, Mattingley is one of the places we work. The survey and report are the same in Mattingley as anywhere else, and visits run on weekdays and weekends.

Do you cover smaller places like Mattingley?

We do. A small place gets exactly the same survey as a big one, with the route planned beforehand.

Is this a RICS survey?

No. It is a specialist roof survey, not a RICS Level 2 or Level 3 building survey. It focuses on the roof, so it sits alongside a building survey rather than replacing it.

Can you tell me if my claim will be paid?

We cannot say whether a claim will be paid. Insurers decide claims on their own policy wording. Our report gives you an independent record of the damage and its likely cause.

Will you deal with the insurance company for me?

No. We write an independent report, and you decide how to use it. Your insurer may appoint its own loss adjuster.

Can you survey at the weekend?

We carry out surveys on weekdays and at weekends. To arrange a date, ring 07833 053749 or send us an email.

Will my insurer pay for an old roof?

Wear and tear is normally excluded from home insurance. Our report records storm damage and any older wear we see, so it’s clear what we found. Your insurer decides how its policy applies.

Signs you need a storm damage roof report in Mattingley

Landlords and building managers often need a written record after a storm. The report can be shared with owners, tenants or insurers.

Most people get in touch after spotting something like this:

  • Damaged gutters and fascias
  • Slates and tiles blown off the roof
  • Cowls or aerials dislodged in the wind
  • Flashings pulled away from walls or stacks

For landlords with property near Hook station, finding the cause of a leak fast keeps a tenant’s home dry and the work focused.

Questions to ask before you book

  • How soon the report will arrive
  • Will they check the loft as well as the outside?
  • What’s outside the scope of the survey
  • What insurance they carry

What a roof survey includes

How it works

We don’t take risks to get a closer look. Everything that can safely be seen is inspected, and anything we cannot see is noted in the report. Most visits take roughly 1–2 hours at a house, and longer if the damage is spread across a large roof. Somewhere as small as Mattingley, access is frequently the only tricky part. Mention any outbuildings, barns or garages you want included, and anything about the roof you already know. Visits can be on weekdays, Saturdays or Sundays.

  1. We start with the details: when the storm hit and what damage you can see.
  2. The roof is looked at from the ground, from windows and from the loft space where it is safe.
  3. The damage is recorded with photos, area by area.
  4. The likely cause is recorded, along with any evidence of older wear.
  5. You get a written report you can pass to your insurer.

Before the survey

  • Buyers: confirm access with the estate agent or seller
  • Mention any parking restrictions on your street
  • Leave side gates unlocked

How to book

Unsure which package suits your roof? It is easiest to ring 07833 053749 or email us and describe the roof and why you want it surveyed. We’ll talk you through the options and what they cost.

Leaks and storm damage in Mattingley

The wider area around Mattingley has a long history of building, with Stratfield Saye House about 3.1 miles north-west. Older roofs in the wider area can hide decades of patch repairs, so the detail matters. A number of Hampshire villages keep thatched roofs on their older buildings. 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 is detailed.

If your home is one of the older ones in the streets near Mattingley Church, the leak may come from a chimney, a valley or tired lead rather than the covering itself.

Mattingley is about 5 miles west of Yateley, in Hampshire. Anywhere in Mattingley, we can come and survey your property, on a weekday, Saturday or Sunday. Our Hampshire coverage includes Mattingley. You can also see our page for Reading.

Tips from our surveys

A survey works best with a little help from you, before and after. Some tips:

  • Take photos of stains and damp inside
  • Read your policy wording on storm damage
  • Keep fallen slates or tiles as evidence if safe
  • Take photos from ground level or a window, never by climbing

You will need a roofer’s quote for the repairs. The report gives them a clear list of the damage.

Have overhanging branches looked at by a tree surgeon. Branches can hit or scrape the roof in a storm.

Prices for storm damage roof reports in Mattingley

Our packages start from £150, with VAT included. The price for your roof depends on:

  • The use of thermal imaging or a drone
  • The type of building, from a house to a block or an office
  • Extra roofs, like extensions, dormers or garages
  • The package you choose: Basic, Standard or Premium

Our price is from £150, including VAT. What you pay depends on how big and how high the roof is, access and which survey you book.

Booking your survey

A little information up front helps. It helps to include:

  • What made you get in touch
  • Pictures of the roof from a safe spot, if you have them
  • Where any leaks, stains or damp patches show inside
  • Whether there’s a loft hatch, a shared roof or tricky access

If you are buying, it is useful to book soon after your offer is accepted, so you have the findings in time to act on them before you exchange. Otherwise, simply ring 07833 053749 or send us an email whenever suits you.
