Storm damage roof report in Mousehill

After a storm, it is useful to have a clear record of what happened to your roof. We photograph the damage, describe it and note whether it fits storm damage, older wear or both. We’re not loss adjusters and can’t tell you if your claim will succeed. What we give you is an independent record of the roof. If you’ve noticed new damp or leaks inside and damaged flat roof membrane, a survey will tell you what’s going on.

Many homes in small places like Mousehill face open ground, so storms hit ridges, verges and chimneys hard. Damp in old stone, brick or timber walls is slow to dry out, which makes finding the cause quickly worthwhile. A record with photos is useful if you need to show the damage to anyone else.

The report records the roof as we found it on the day. That makes it useful now and a handy reference later, such as when you want to compare after future work.

For landlords and managing agents

Shared roofs need a little more planning: access has to be agreed with whoever owns or manages the building. Tell us about it when booking and we will plan the visit with that in mind.

We also survey roofs for businesses and commercial landlords, including offices, shops and units. Bigger roofs take more time.

Why get it checked now?

Your policy may say how quickly you need to report damage. Let your insurer know early, and check what your policy asks for. An independent report can follow. Older and listed buildings around Mousehill may need consent and matching materials for repairs, so leaving a defect until it is urgent leaves less time to plan.

Price depends partly on the package: Basic from £150, Standard from £250 or Premium from £400, all inc. VAT. The roof’s size, height and access matter as well.

Why us?

  • A sub-250g drone, flown with a CAA Flyer ID and Operator ID
  • Drone and thermal imaging surveys available
  • Independent findings on the roof’s condition
  • Package prices that include VAT

Useful tips for Mousehill property owners

Here are a few things we’d tell any owner:

  • Keep fallen slates or tiles as evidence if safe
  • Check how your policy defines a storm
  • Record any water damage in rooms and the loft
  • Keep invoices for temporary repairs

If you’re unhappy with how your insurer handles the claim, you can complain to them first. If that does not resolve it, the Financial Ombudsman Service may be able to help.

Clear gutters and outlets before the stormy months. Overflowing gutters can make storm damage worse.

DIY checks: what’s safe

Watch the gutters in a downpour, from a window or the ground. Overflowing water can point to a blockage or a sagging run.

Keep a simple record: dates of leaks, photos from the ground and any work done on the roof. Share it with us as you book and it will help the survey.

What a storm damage roof report does not cover

Before booking, it’s worth knowing what a survey won’t do:

  • A price for the repairs
  • What your policy covers, which depends on its wording
  • What’s beneath slates, tiles or membranes

If you are not sure which survey you need, phone 07833 053749 or drop us an email and we will give you a straight answer before booking. What our survey covers.

What this survey covers

  • Flashings
  • Ridges and hips

Storm damage roof reports around Mousehill

Loseley Park, about 3.8 miles north-east, is one of the historic houses in the wider area around Mousehill. If your house is among the older ones, expect a mix of original materials and later repairs on the roof. Handmade clay tiles and tile-hung walls are typical of Surrey’s older houses. Some old buildings in Surrey and Sussex have Horsham stone slab roofs. Each of these roof types has its own typical places for water to get in.

For landlords with property near Milford (Surrey) station, finding the cause of a leak fast keeps a tenant’s home dry and the work focused. Homes near green spaces such as Rodborough Common can get more leaves in their gutters in autumn. If you look after a building like Milford School, water through a big roof can travel a long way before it drips, so the search covers more than the obvious spot.

Mousehill is about 6 miles south-west of Guildford, in Surrey. Mousehill gets the same service as everywhere else we work: a proper look at whatever is safely visible, photographs and a clear written report. Across Surrey, we cover Mousehill. You can also see our page for Guildford.

Common questions in Mousehill

Is Mousehill in the area you cover?

Yes, Mousehill is one of the places we work. Every survey there gets the same written report with photos, and visits run on weekdays and weekends.

Is Mousehill within the area you cover?

Yes. Mousehill is within the area we cover, which takes in towns, villages and rural addresses. Our area covers London and the South East. Just mention lanes, gates or anything else about the route when you book.

Are you loss adjusters?

No. Our report is an independent record for you to use. The insurer may send a loss adjuster of its own.

Who handles emergency protection after a storm?

Call a roofer for emergency temporary protection. If it’s safe, photograph the damage before it’s covered. Keep receipts for any emergency work.

Should I go up on the roof to take photos?

Only from ground level or from windows. Don’t use a ladder or go onto the roof. Binoculars can help you see damage from below, and we will record the rest.

Will you check the loft?

If the survey needs it and the roof space can be reached safely, yes. A clear path to the hatch helps, and if the loft can’t be reached safely, the report says so.

Is this an asbestos survey?

No. Asbestos surveys and testing aren’t part of what we do. If we see materials that could contain asbestos, like cement roof sheets or soffits on buildings from before 2000, we flag them and suggest a specialist asbestos surveyor checks them before any work.

How the survey works

It’s useful to start with what’s prompted the survey: a purchase, a leak, a storm, new work or simply peace of mind. That way we can focus on what matters to you. Most visits take roughly 1–2 hours for most homes, depending on how much of the roof was hit. For a village or hamlet like Mousehill, the journey is planned ahead of time: let us know 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 is safe access and from the roof where it is safe.

  1. We note the date of the storm and the damage you’ve seen.
  2. The roof is inspected from safe positions.
  3. We record and photograph the damage.
  4. The report notes whether the damage fits a storm, older wear or both.
  5. You get a written report to pass to your insurer.

Preparing for the visit

  • Gather any invoices or paperwork from past roof work
  • For a flat or shared roof, check access with the building owner or managing agent
  • If you are buying, let the agent know when we’re coming

Arrange a survey

Prices start from £150, including VAT. What you pay depends on the roof’s size, access and the package, and you can phone 07833 053749 or use the contact form to find out.
