Munstead Heath questions
Is Munstead Heath within the area you cover?
Yes, we do. Our area covers London and the South East, and smaller places are part of that. The journey is planned ahead, so it helps to know about access.
Do you cover Munstead Heath?
Yes, Munstead Heath is one of the places we work. The survey and report are the same in Munstead Heath as anywhere else, and visits run on weekdays and weekends.
What do I do if water is coming in?
Emergency cover over a damaged roof should be arranged with a roofer. If it is safe, photograph the damage before it is covered. Keep receipts for any emergency work.
My storm claim was turned down. What now?
Complain to your insurer first. If you’re still unhappy, you may be able to take it to the Financial Ombudsman Service. An independent report can add to your evidence, though we cannot predict the outcome.
How should I record storm damage myself?
Stay off the roof. Take photos from the ground or from windows. Record the date and any damage inside as well.
Which days do you carry out surveys?
Surveys can be booked for any day of the week: Monday to Friday, Saturdays and Sundays. Just tell us the days that suit you.
How long have you been surveying roofs?
Over 5,000 surveys so far, over more than 20 years.
Storm damage roof report in Munstead Heath: what you get
High winds usually affect the parts of a roof that are already exposed or loose. Slates and tiles slip or blow off, ridge and hip tiles lift, flashings pull away and flat roof coverings can tear. Trees and branches can also hit roofs in a storm. Our report records what has happened to your roof, with photos. Any older wear we can see is recorded as well. We survey flat roofs, ridges and hips and slate and tile slopes, and the problems we are asked to look at most are lifted or missing ridge and hip tiles and flat roof edges peeled back.
Roofs in small places like Munstead Heath frequently stand in the open, so storms hit ridges, verges and chimneys hard. Damp in old stone, brick or timber walls is slow to dry out, so it pays to find the cause quickly. A record with photos is useful if you need to show the damage to anyone else.
The report is yours to share with whoever needs it: a seller or estate agent, an insurer, a roofer, a builder or a managing agent, whichever applies.

What we look for on each type of roof
Chimney stacks
Flashings around stacks can lift in strong winds. We photograph any we find.
Flat roof coverings
Edge trims and laps are frequently where flat roof coverings start to peel back. We check whether the damage is recent or older.
Honest limits
Without opening up the roof, some things stay hidden, so a survey has limits:
- Acting for you with the insurer
- Your insurer’s view of the claim
- Repair costs or quotes for the work
If you are not sure which survey you need, call 07833 053749 or email us and we will give you a straight answer before you book. What a survey covers and doesn’t.

What we do, step by step
Photographs are taken throughout the visit, so you can see in the report what we found and where. Close-ups come from the safest viewpoint available. Most surveys take about 1–2 hours for a house, and longer for a large or complex roof. Older rural homes like those around Munstead Heath can have a main roof, lower lean-to roofs and outbuildings all joined together. Each part is looked at from wherever it can be seen safely, and anything we cannot see is noted.
- 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.
- We view the roof from safe positions.
- Storm damage and older wear are recorded separately where we can.
- You receive the written report with photos.
Before we arrive
- Show us where any leaks or stains appear
- For flats, check roof access has been agreed
- Make a note of anything you’d like us to look at

Advice
What you can safely check yourself
Your own check is a good start, but it is not a survey. From the ground, valleys, flashings and the backs of chimneys are often out of sight, and those are details a survey looks at closely.
Watch the gutters in a downpour, from a window or the ground. Water spilling over the edge can be a sign of a blockage or a gutter that has dropped.
What affects the cost of storm damage roof reports
A few things affect what a survey costs:
- Roof area
- How many separate roofs there are, such as extensions, dormers and garages
- The shape of the roof and its details
- Height and safe access
Prices quoted always include VAT, and the written report is part of the package. Prices start from £150, including VAT. Where your roof sits in the range depends on its size, height and access.
Booking your survey
Some details help us point you to the right survey and price. When you contact us, it’s useful to mention:
- Any marks or damp showing indoors
- Your timetable, such as an exchange date
- What made you get in touch
- Anything about access we should know
Not sure which survey you need? It’s easiest to phone 07833 053749 or drop us an email and describe the roof and what’s worrying you. We’ll talk you through the options and what they cost.
What a storm damage roof report looks like in Munstead Heath
The wider area around Munstead Heath has a long history of building, with Loseley Park about 3 miles north. Older roofs in the wider area can hide decades of patch repairs, so the detail matters, and a listed home or one in a conservation area may need consent for changes of material. Many older homes in Surrey have handmade clay tiles and tile-hung upper walls. 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.
Living close to Phillips Memorial Park is pleasant, but mature trees mean leaves in gutters and valleys each autumn, and blocked gutters overflow and soak walls. Anyone responsible for a site like Busbridge Infant School will know that a leak through a large roof is often found some distance from where the water shows inside. If you let a flat or house near Godalming station, a tenant living with a leak needs the cause found, not just the stain painted over.
