Letting agents can arrange access with tenants, at a time agreed in advance. Surveys run on weekdays and at weekends, which can make access easier.
How a storm damage roof report works in Mop End
Each roof is looked at from the safest viewpoints available: from the ground, from windows and higher points, from the loft space and from the roof where it is safe. We photograph and describe each area of damage. If part of the roof can’t be seen, the report says so. The report, with photos, is yours to pass to your insurer. We survey ridges and hips, gutters and fascias and slate and tile slopes, and common reasons people get in touch are gaps where slates or tiles have gone and cowls or aerials dislodged in the wind.
Being in a small place like Mop End makes no difference to how a leak or storm damage is looked at: we simply plan the journey and access ahead. Let us know where the water shows, when it appears and anything you’ve noticed outside, along with any repairs done before. Photos of the stain and of the roof from outside are helpful too.
We write the report in plain English, so it makes sense without any roofing background. Photos show what each point refers to, and recommendations are put in order of urgency where relevant.

What we look for on each type of roof
Ridge and hip tiles
The ridge and hips are among the most exposed parts of a roof. We record any that have lifted, cracked or come away.
Flat roof coverings
Branches and debris can damage flat roofs or block outlets. We record what we find.
What a storm damage roof report doesn’t cover
It is a careful look at the roof, not the whole story. Its limits include:
- A decision on your insurance claim
- Damage hidden under coverings or inside the structure, without opening up
- What your policy covers, which depends on its wording
Not sure which survey suits your roof? You can call 07833 053749 or send us an email and we’ll tell you. What a survey covers and does not.

The survey, step by step
Photos are taken throughout the visit, so the report shows exactly what we saw. Close-ups come from the safest viewpoint available, including by drone where it is applicable and the weather allows. Most surveys take roughly 1–2 hours for most homes, depending on how much of the roof was hit. In a hamlet or village like Mop End, a postcode does not always lead to the right gate, so a few directions are welcome. The visit itself is the same as anywhere else.
- You let us know what happened and whether a roofer has made the roof safe.
- We check inside, including the loft where there’s access, for water damage.
- The roof is inspected from the ground, windows and the roof where it’s safe.
- We record fresh damage and older defects.
- The report, with photos, is emailed to you.
How to prepare
- Keep pets inside or away from the areas we’re looking at
- Leave side gates unlocked
- If it is not your property yet, arrange access through the agent

What else we do in Mop End
Leaks and storm damage in Mop End
Hughenden Manor, about 4.1 miles west, is one of the historic houses in the wider area around Mop End. If your house is among the older ones, expect a mix of original materials and later repairs on the roof, and any change of roofing material on a listed home needs checking with the council first. Some villages in Buckinghamshire still have thatched roofs. Across the South East, older homes tend to have slate or clay tiles, and many later ones concrete tiles. Knowing the roof type helps narrow down where water may be getting in.
If you look after a building like Curzon Church of England Combined School, on a building that size, finding the source of a drip means looking well beyond the stain. Take an older house close to Church of the Holy Trinity: old mortar, worn lead and slipped slates are the usual suspects when water gets in. For landlords with property near Amersham station, tracing a leak quickly matters when a tenant is living with it.
Mop End is about 3 miles west of Amersham, in Buckinghamshire. We carry out storm damage roof reports in Mop End for houses, flats, blocks and commercial buildings. We cover towns and villages across Buckinghamshire, from the larger towns to small villages. There is also a page for Reading.

Tips that help
These tips come from what we see on roofs every week, before and after a survey:
- File receipts for anything you pay for
- Hold on to fallen pieces of the roof where you can
- Take photos of stains and damp inside
- Look at what your policy says about wear and tear
If a claim is declined and you disagree, the first step is a complaint to the insurer. After that, you may be able to take it to the Financial Ombudsman Service.
Keep the roof in good order between storms. Have loose slates, tiles and flashings seen to promptly.
Your questions about storm damage roof reports in Mop End
Do you cover Mop End?
Yes, Mop End is within the area we cover. We survey roofs across London and South East England. Just ring 07833 053749 or drop us an email and let us know about the property.
Does a conservation area affect roof work in Mop End?
You can check whether a building is listed on Historic England’s list, and your council can tell you if it’s 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.
Can you tell me if my claim will be paid?
The decision is your insurer’s, not ours. Our report records what is damaged, with photos, and the likely cause, for you to give to your insurer.
What do I do if water is coming in?
Call a roofer for emergency temporary protection. If it is safe, photograph the damage before it’s covered. Keep receipts in case your insurer asks for them.
Will you deal with the insurance company for me?
No. We’re not loss adjusters, and we do not negotiate claims. We provide an independent record of the roof, which you can pass to your insurer.
Do I need to be at home?
Not necessarily. If we only need the outside, we can agree that ahead of time, but the loft and any rooms with damp need someone to let us in.
Will you check the loft?
Where it’s relevant to the survey and there is safe access, yes. A clear path to the hatch helps, and if the loft cannot be reached safely, the report says so.
What affects the price in Mop End
Our packages start from £150, including VAT. The price for your roof depends on:
- Extensions, dormers and garages with roofs of their own
- Any need for thermal images or a drone flight
- Features like valleys, chimneys, dormers and parapets
- Which survey package you book
A small, low roof with good viewpoints takes less time than a tall, complicated one, and the package matters as well. The price is always agreed first.
Booking your survey
A few details help us suggest the right survey and price. When you get in touch, it helps to mention:
- The style of property, from a terrace to a block
- What’s prompted the survey
- The address and postcode of the property
- Your timetable, like an exchange date
Once you know what you need, ring 07833 053749 or email us. From there it is a case of choosing a package, agreeing the price and fixing a day.
