About our storm damage roof report in Mundaydean Bottom
When a storm has damaged your roof, a written record can help you explain it to your insurer. We photograph the damage, describe it and note whether it fits storm damage, older wear or both. We aren’t loss adjusters, and we can’t say whether a claim will be paid. What we give you is an independent record of the roof. We survey ridges and hips, flashings and chimney stacks, and people most often book us about lifted or missing ridge and hip tiles and torn or lifted flat roof coverings.
Being in a small place like Mundaydean Bottom 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, plus any earlier repairs. If you have photos of the water coming in, they help as well.
Where we cannot see part of the roof, the report says so. That way, it’s clear what was covered and what wasn’t.

What we do, step by step
The visit typically starts outside and finishes in the loft: outside views come first, then the loft space if there is safe access. In total, it takes about 1–2 hours for a house, and more on a big or complicated roof. Around Mundaydean Bottom, older homes can have small or awkward roof spaces, so tell us about the loft hatch and any ladder. Only areas that can be reached safely are inspected.
- First we go through when the storm hit and what you’ve noticed.
- We look at the roof from wherever it’s safe.
- We record and photograph the damage.
- The report notes whether the damage fits a storm, older wear or both.
- We send you the report by email for your insurer.

Do you need a storm damage roof report in Mundaydean Bottom?
Strong winds lift loose or poorly fixed slates and tiles, ridge pieces and flashings. Rain can then blow in where slates or tiles have gone. People usually call us after a storm, once they’ve noticed damage or a leak.
Signs worth acting on include:
- Roofs hit by falling trees
- Loose or torn flashings
- Damaged flat roof membrane
- Loose or broken chimney pots and cowls
For site and facilities teams at buildings such as Burford School, on a building that size, finding the source of a drip means looking well beyond the stain.
Questions to ask before you book
- How much experience they have with roofs like yours
- What follow-up you get after the report
- Their report turnaround times
- If they fly a drone, whether they hold a CAA Flyer ID and Operator ID
What happens if roof problems are left?
The sooner the damage is recorded, the clearer the evidence. Later weather and temporary repairs can make it harder to see what happened. Outbuildings and barns around Mundaydean Bottom are easy to forget, but a failed roof there can spoil what’s stored inside. A quick look before winter can save a lot.
One thing that affects the price is the package: from £150 for Basic, £250 for Standard and £400 for Premium, inc. VAT. Size, height and access can affect the price too.

Mundaydean Bottom: your questions answered
Is my home in Mundaydean Bottom listed or in a conservation area?
Start with Historic England’s list for listing and your council for conservation areas. Either can affect what roof work is allowed, so it is worth checking before planning any.
Is Mundaydean Bottom within the area you cover?
Yes, Mundaydean Bottom is covered. Our area covers London and the South East, from towns to the smallest villages. The journey is planned ahead, so it helps to know about access.
Is it the same as a RICS Level 2 or Level 3 survey?
No. We check the roof, not the whole building, so it’s not a RICS Level 2 or Level 3 survey. It can sit alongside a RICS survey if you want both.
How long have you been surveying roofs?
Over 5,000 surveys so far, across 20+ years of surveying roofs, with 98% customer satisfaction.
Is wear and tear covered by insurance?
Wear and tear is not normally covered. We describe what looks like fresh storm damage and what looks older. Your insurer decides the claim.
Can I challenge a declined storm claim?
Start by complaining to the insurer. If it isn’t resolved, the Financial Ombudsman Service may be able to help. The Ombudsman asks about storm conditions, whether the damage is consistent with a storm and whether the storm was the main cause.
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 can’t be reached safely, the report says so.
Tips that help
Some practical points come up on survey after survey. They’re worth knowing whatever the roof:
- Hold on to fallen pieces of the roof where you can
- Look at what your policy says about wear and tear
- Do not go onto the roof to take pictures
- Check your policy for how to report damage
You get the report by email and pass it to your insurer yourself. We do not deal with the insurer on your behalf.
Keep records of roof work and surveys. They help show the roof was in good order before a storm.
How the survey changes by roof type
Lead flashings
Lifted flashings let rain run behind them into the roof. We note where this has happened and any damp inside.
Flat roof coverings
Lifted trims and laps are common after a storm. We check whether the damage is recent or older.
Mundaydean Bottom roofs and the weather
Some villages in Buckinghamshire still have thatched roofs. 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’s detailed. The wider area around Mundaydean Bottom has a long history of building, with Harleyford Manor about 2.3 miles south. Period homes nearby can have lead valleys, tall chimneys and a patchwork of past repairs.
The streets around a church such as St Mary the Virgin are often among the oldest in a place, and if yours is one of the older homes nearby, water on an older roof tends to find its way in at the lead, the valleys or the chimney. Landlords with a home close to Marlow station may find that tracing a leak quickly matters when a tenant is living with it.
