Storm damage roof report in Nash: what you get
Our storm damage report gives you an independent, written record of how a storm has affected your roof. It sets out what is damaged, with photographs, and what we think the likely cause is. You can then give it to your insurer with your claim. The decision on any claim rests with your insurer and its policy wording. We are not loss adjusters and cannot say whether a claim will be paid. If you’re worried about holes or cracks caused by debris and damaged flat roof membrane, a survey will tell you what’s going on, whatever the roof.
In London, leaks often start somewhere hidden: the valley gutter in a butterfly roof, a parapet gutter, a chimney flashing or the flat roof over a rear extension. Whether you are tracing a leak or recording storm damage in Nash, those are among the first places to look. A hidden gutter that overflows can send water a long way before it shows.
It is not only a list of defects. It explains what we found, why it matters and what we recommend.

For landlords and managing agents
For a freeholder or residents’ company, a roof report is a sound basis for a maintenance plan, putting the urgent items at the top.
We survey roofs for landlords and letting agents as well as householders. The report gives you a dated record of the roof, with photographs, useful for planning maintenance.
Storm damage roof reports in Nash: local notes
Alongside Victorian and Edwardian terraces, outer London has a great many interwar semis, often with hipped roofs of clay or concrete tiles. On a semi of that age, the small roofs over the bays, the hip tiles and any later dormer each need their own look. Where water gets in depends a good deal on what the roof is made of and how it is detailed. With Down House about 2.4 miles south-east, Nash sits in an area with a long building history. On older houses around here, roofs frequently carry the marks of earlier repairs, from replaced slates to new lead, and the council can say whether a home is in a conservation area.
Landlords with a home close to Hayes (Kent) station may find that finding the cause of a leak fast keeps a tenant’s home dry and the work focused. Living close to Coney Hall Recreation Ground is pleasant, but mature trees mean leaves in gutters and valleys each autumn.
Nash is about 3 miles south of Bromley, in Greater London. From houses to flats and shops in Nash, the roof can be surveyed. We cover towns and villages across Greater London, from the larger towns to small villages. We also survey roofs in London.
Postcode districts we cover here for storm damage roof reports: BR2. If you need a storm damage roof report at a property on Nash Lane and North Pole Lane or a nearby road, we can survey it. Close by, we survey roofs in Keston (1 mile east), Leaves Green (1 mile south-east), Hayes (1 mile north), New Addington (2 miles south-west) and Farthing Street (2 miles south-east). We also work in nearby towns such as London (11 miles north-west), City of Westminster (13 miles north-west), Marylebone (13 miles north-west), Kensington (14 miles north-west), St Pancras (13 miles north-west) and Shoreditch (12 miles north).
Local landmarks in Nash
Typical jobs here are in homes near The Greyhound pub, All Saints Catholic School and Coney Hall Recreation Ground and the streets around them. Nash’s nearest station is Hayes (Kent) station, about 1.4 miles north. Other landmarks nearby include The Mall (3.2 miles north) and Bethlem Museum of the Mind (1.8 miles north). Not far away are Hutchinson's Bank and Summer Hill.
What this survey cannot tell you
Some things can’t be seen without opening up the roof, so a survey has limits:
- Damage hidden under coverings or inside the structure, without opening up
- How your policy defines a storm
- Estimates of repair costs

Common roof problems in Nash
Falling trees and branches can damage roofs in high winds. We record the damage and where it is, backed up with photos.
Signs worth acting on include:
- Broken or displaced guttering
- New damp or leaks inside
- Damaged ridges and hips
- Flashings pulled away from walls or stacks
If you look after a shop, office or commercial unit, for instance near The Mall, finding where water is getting in quickly keeps disruption down.
Before you book anyone
- Which viewpoints they use to see the roof
- What experience they bring
- Will they check the loft as well as the outside?
- How soon the report will arrive
Why it’s worth a survey now in Nash
It is useful to get a record soon after the storm, while the damage is fresh. Later weather and temporary repairs can make it harder to see what happened. In Nash, as in much of London, water from a roof defect can reach a neighbour’s home as easily as yours: failed flashings and blocked valley gutters can send water into more than one home. Dealing with it early is far less disruptive.
What a survey costs comes down to the roof itself: how big it is, how high it is, the number of separate roofs and how it can be reached and seen safely. Our price is from £150, including VAT.

Practical tips
Some practical points come up on survey after survey. They’re worth knowing whatever the roof:
- Keep a note of the date of the storm
- Keep invoices for temporary repairs
- Get a roofer to make the roof safe if needed
- Tell your insurer about the damage promptly
You get the report by email and pass it to your insurer yourself. We do not deal with the insurer on your behalf.
Ask a tree specialist about branches over the roof. Branches can hit or scrape the roof in a storm.
Nash questions
Can parking be tricky for a visit in Nash?
Parking in Nash, as in most of London, takes a little planning: a visitor permit or a bay close to the door helps a lot.
Is my home in Nash listed or in a conservation area?
We can’t confirm that for you, but Historic England’s list and your council can. Both listing and conservation areas can limit changes of roofing material, and councils can also use Article 4 directions.
How much is a storm damage roof report?
A storm damage report starts from £150. Commercial and larger roofs are quoted on size. Repair costs aren’t part of the report.
Which days do you carry out surveys?
Surveys run on weekdays and at weekends. To find a day that suits you, call 07833 053749 or send us an email.
What if my insurer declines the claim?
Start by complaining to the insurer. The Financial Ombudsman Service may look at it if that does not resolve it. The Ombudsman asks about storm conditions, whether the damage is consistent with a storm and whether the storm was the main cause.
Does this replace a RICS home survey?
No. We are experienced roof surveyors, and our survey covers the roof rather than the whole building. If you need a full building survey, you’ll need a RICS survey as well.
Do I have to be there for the survey?
If the survey includes the loft or the inside of the building, someone needs to let us in. Access is agreed with you when booking.
How the survey works
On the day, we start by asking what you’ve noticed and what you want to find out. After that, we look at everything we can see safely, from ground level, from windows, in the roof space and by drone where it applies. Most surveys take about 1–2 hours at a house, and longer if the damage is spread across a large roof. Surveys in Nash can be booked for any day of the week. It helps if you can point us to a visitor permit or a nearby bay, and to clear a path to the loft hatch. A back bedroom window can be the best vantage point for a rear addition, so we may ask to use one.
- We start with the details: when the storm hit and what damage you can see.
- We view the roof from wherever it can safely be seen, including the loft where there is access.
- Each area of damage is photographed and described.
- We look at whether the damage fits storm damage, older wear or both.
- The findings are written up with photographs for you to share with your insurer.
How to prepare
- Tell us about any leaks, stains or damp patches you know of
- Have any questions written down, so nothing gets missed
- Have any paperwork from past roof work to hand
