Questions from Moulsoe
Do you cover Moulsoe?
We do. Every survey there gets the same written report with photographs, and visits run on weekdays and weekends.
Is Moulsoe within the area you cover?
Yes, we do. Our area covers London and South East England, from towns to the smallest villages. Longer journeys are simply planned in advance.
Do I need to be at home?
It depends on what we need to see. For inside areas and the loft space, someone has to give us access, while outside access can be discussed as you book.
Do you use drones?
Yes, where it is applicable. We hold a CAA Flyer ID and Operator ID and fly a drone under 250g, and every flight depends on the airspace and the weather.
Will you go up on the roof?
Not unless it’s safe. Most of what we need can be seen from safe viewpoints, the loft and, where applicable, a drone, and the report notes anything we couldn’t see.
Do you survey roofs on blocks of flats?
Yes. A shared roof needs access agreed first, with whoever owns or manages the building. Mention it when you get in touch and we will plan the survey around it.
What do I do if water is coming in?
Call a roofer for emergency temporary protection. Take photos from the ground first if it’s safe. Keep receipts in case your insurer asks for them.
Storm damage roof report in Moulsoe
Most policies don’t cover wear and tear. That makes the difference between storm damage and old wear important. Our report records both: recent damage alongside any older defects, like nail fatigue on slates or eroded pointing. We give an honest view of what we see. Your insurer then decides how its policy applies. Typical surveys look at ridge tiles that have come loose and roofs hit by falling trees, across gutters and fascias, slate and tile slopes and chimney stacks.
Roofs in small places like Moulsoe frequently stand in the open, where storms hit ridges, verges and chimneys hardest. Damp in old stone, brick or timber walls is slow to dry out, so it pays to find the cause quickly. A record with photographs is useful if you need to show the damage to anyone else.
We keep jargon out of it: where something needs attention, it says so plainly, and where it can wait, that’s said too.

Surveys for landlords and agents in Moulsoe
An agent can book and manage the survey for a landlord, and the report can go to both. We agree a time with the tenant beforehand.
For blocks of flats, a roof survey helps managing agents and residents’ management companies plan ahead. Recommendations are set out by urgency where it matters, which helps when budgeting.
Tips from our surveys
Here are a few things we’d tell any owner, before and after a survey:
- Photograph the damage safely from below
- Keep a note of the date of the storm
- File receipts for anything you pay for
- Look at what your policy says about wear and tear
For repair costs, ask a roofer to quote. The report gives them a clear list of the damage.
Ask a tree specialist about branches over the roof. They can damage the roof in high winds.
Leaks and storm damage in Moulsoe
Historic houses such as Linford Manor, about 3.4 miles west, show how far back building in the area around Moulsoe goes. Period homes nearby can have lead valleys, tall chimneys and a patchwork of past repairs. In this part of the South East, older roofs are mostly slate or clay tile and many newer ones concrete tile. The covering and its details give the first clues when tracing where water is coming from.
Landlords with a home close to Woburn Sands station may find that a tenant living with a leak needs the cause found, not just the stain painted over. If you live in an older home near Church of St Mary, the leak may come from a chimney, a valley or tired lead rather than the covering itself.

What we look for on each type of roof

Flashings with older defects frequently fail in high winds. Our report separates fresh damage from older wear where we can.
Ridge and hip tiles
Worn mortar under ridge tiles can let them lift in a storm. Our report says whether it looks freshly damaged or worn over time.
Common roof problems in Moulsoe
Insurers often want evidence of what has been damaged and why. A written report with photos gives you something clear to pass on. Your insurer still makes the decision.
A survey can pick up problems like:
- Loose or torn flashings
- Cowls or aerials dislodged in the wind
- Roofs hit by falling trees
- Flat roof edges peeled back
Shop and office owners around Midsummer Place may find that a leak can close part of a shop or office, so finding the cause quickly matters.

- Will the report include photos?
- What the survey will not cover
How it works
Once we’ve finished looking, we write up our findings in a report with photos, sent to you by email. As for time on site, most surveys take roughly 1–2 hours on an ordinary house, with bigger or more complicated roofs taking longer. Somewhere like Moulsoe needs a little journey planning: tell us about narrow lanes, gates, long drives and where we can park. The roof is looked at from the ground, from windows, from the loft where there’s safe access and from the roof where it is safe.
- We start with what you’ve seen and any temporary repairs.
- Inside, we look for signs of water in the loft and rooms below.
- The roof is inspected from ground level, windows and the roof where it’s safe.
- We record fresh damage and older defects.
- The report, with photos, is emailed to you.
Preparing for the visit
- Make sure the loft hatch can be reached
- Gather any invoices or paperwork from past roof work
- Leave side gates unlocked
