Storm damage roof reports for Micheldever Station homes and businesses
What we do, step by step
We will ask a few questions first, about the roof’s history, any leaks and past repairs. The inspection then takes between one and two hours for most houses, and longer for a large or complex roof. In a small place like Micheldever Station, access is usually the main thing to plan. Let us know about outbuildings, past repairs and any leaks you’ve noticed. Visits can be on weekdays, Saturdays or Sundays.
- First you give us the date of the storm and what you’ve noticed, inside and out.
- The roof is looked at from ground level, from windows and from the roof space where it’s safe.
- Each area of damage is photographed and described.
- We check whether the damage fits storm damage, older wear or both.
- The findings are written up with photos for you to share with your insurer.
Before we arrive
- If you’re buying, check with the agent that we can get in
- Jot down any questions you want answered
- For a flat or shared roof, check access with whoever owns or manages the building

Advice
Storm damage roof report in Micheldever Station
We inspect the roof from wherever it can safely be seen: from the ground, from windows and higher points, from the roof space and from the roof where it’s safe. We photograph and describe each area of damage. We note any part we couldn’t see. You get a report with photographs to give to your insurer. If you’ve noticed slates and tiles blown off the roof and damaged flat roof membrane, a survey will tell you what’s going on, whatever the roof.
In a village or hamlet like Micheldever Station, older cottages and farmhouses often have roofs that have been patched over many years. That makes it hard to tell new damage from old wear, and the difference matters, especially to an insurer. The report says what was seen and what it points to. Damp in old walls and timbers is slow to dry, so the sooner the cause is found the better.
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 decide what to do next.

Surveys for landlords and agents in Micheldever Station
We also survey roofs for businesses and commercial landlords, including offices, shops and units. Bigger roofs take more time, and they’re priced for the size.
Shared roofs need a little more planning: access has to be agreed with whoever owns or manages the building. Mention it when you get in touch and we will plan the visit with that in mind.
When you need someone else
In fairness, a roof survey has limits:
- Areas we cannot see safely
- Negotiating a claim settlement
- Whether your insurer will pay the claim

What we look for on each type of roof
Ridge and hip tiles
Worn mortar under ridge tiles can let them lift in a storm. We note whether the mortar looks recently broken or long worn.
Slate roofs
Slates often outlast the nails that hold them. We check whether slipped slates suggest storm damage, older wear or both.
Storm damage roof reports around Micheldever Station
Before planning roof work on an older home, find out whether it’s listed or in a conservation area. Listed building consent covers changes to a listed building’s special interest, and an Article 4 direction can bring extra controls in a conservation area. A number of Hampshire villages keep thatched roofs on their older buildings. In this part of the South East, older roofs are mostly slate or clay tile and many newer ones concrete tile. Where water gets in depends a good deal on what the roof is made of and how it is detailed.
Whatever the street in Micheldever Station, a roof costs least to look after when faults are caught early.

Micheldever Station: your questions answered
Is my home in Micheldever Station listed or in a conservation area?
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. 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 cover smaller places like Micheldever Station?
Yes, Micheldever Station is covered. Our area covers London and the South East, from towns to the smallest villages. Longer journeys are simply planned ahead of time.
What if my insurer declines the 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 can’t say how it will turn out.
How much is a storm damage roof report?
Our price is from £150, including VAT. Larger or more complex roofs are quoted for their size. It does not include repair costs, so you’ll need a roofer’s quote for those.
Is there a set wind speed for storm damage?
It varies by policy. About 55 mph is a common figure in many policies, but check your own wording.
Is it the same as a RICS Level 2 or Level 3 survey?
No. We look at the roof, not the whole building, and it is not a RICS Level 2 or Level 3 survey. It can sit alongside a RICS survey if you want both.
How experienced are you?
More than 5,000 surveys over 20+ years.
What you can safely check yourself
If you have a loft with safe access, take a look inside. Take a torch and only step on boards or joists, checking for stains, damp wood or chinks of daylight.
Fresh stains on ceilings or walls after rain are worth noting. Photograph them and note the date, which helps when we check the roof.
