Storm damage roof reports in Nash Lee: local notes
Some villages in Buckinghamshire still have thatched roofs. Older houses in the South East often have slate or clay tile roofs, while many later estates have concrete tiles. Different coverings let water in at different points, which shapes where the search starts. There are about 500,000 buildings on England’s list of listed buildings, and around 10,000 conservation areas. Listed building consent is needed for changes that affect a listed building’s special interest, and conservation areas can limit changes of roofing material, so the council is the place to ask.
For an older house near a landmark like Church of St Peter and St Paul, lead flashings, valleys and old chimneys are typical places for water to get in. Shop and office owners around Friars Square may find that finding where water is getting in quickly keeps disruption down.

Storm damage roof reports for homes and businesses in Nash Lee
After a storm, it helps 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 are not loss adjusters, and we cannot say whether a claim will be paid. What you get is an independent view of the roof’s condition. We survey chimney stacks, gutters and fascias and ridges and hips, and common reasons people get in touch are cowls or aerials dislodged in the wind and loose or torn flashings.
For a small place like Nash Lee, the inspection is the same as anywhere: the journey and access are just planned beforehand. Let us know where the water shows, when it appears and anything you’ve noticed outside, plus any earlier repairs. If you have photographs of the water coming in, they help as well.
Every survey ends with a written report, with photographs, sent by email. It sets out the condition of the roof, any defects and our written recommendations.

How the survey works
The visit normally starts outside and finishes in the loft: outside views come first, then the roof space if there’s safe access. All told, expect about one to two hours for a house, while a commercial roof takes nearer three to four hours. Somewhere like Nash Lee needs a little journey planning: let us know about lanes, gates and parking. The roof is looked at from ground level, from windows, from the loft where there’s safe access and from the roof where it’s safe.
- You tell us when the storm was and what damage you’ve seen.

Nash Lee: your questions answered
How do I find out if my home in Nash Lee is listed?
The council and Historic England’s list are the places to check. Either can affect what roof work is allowed, so it is worth checking before planning any.
Is Nash Lee within the area you cover?
Yes, smaller places are covered as well as towns. We work right across London and South East England. Let us know about access, parking and anything unusual about getting there as you book.
Do you climb onto every roof?
Only when it is safe. Most of what we need can be seen from safe viewpoints, the loft and, where applicable, a drone, and anything out of sight is recorded in the report.
Does someone need to be in?
If the survey includes the loft or the inside of the building, someone needs to let us in. We will talk about access as you book.
How are storm damage reports priced?
Storm damage roof report starts from £150, including VAT. Larger or more complex roofs are quoted for their size. It doesn’t include repair costs, so you will need a roofer’s quote for those.
Which days do you carry out surveys?
We survey on any day from Monday to Sunday, during the day, which suits people who work during the week. Let us know your preferred days when you book.
How long have you been surveying roofs?
Over 5,000 surveys so far, over more than 20 years, and 98% of customers are satisfied.
What affects the price in Nash Lee
Not every roof costs the same to survey, and it comes down to:
- The height of the building and how the roof can safely be seen
- The type of building, from a house to a block or an office
- Roof area
- Chimneys, valleys, parapets and other details
A small, low roof with good viewpoints takes less time than a tall, complicated one, and the package matters as well. The price is always agreed first.
What we need to know
Here’s what helps us most when you contact us:
- Where the property is, with the postcode
- Whether there is a loft hatch, a shared roof or tricky access
- Your timetable, like an exchange date
- Any marks or damp showing indoors
To arrange a survey, ring 07833 053749 or email us and tell us the address and what’s prompted the survey. You’ll know the price before anything is booked.
What we look for on each type of roof
Ridge and hip tiles
The ridge and hips are among the most exposed parts of a roof. We record any that have lifted, cracked or come away.
Flat roof coverings
Lifted trims and laps are common after a storm. The report notes signs of recent damage and older wear.
Why act early in Nash Lee
It is useful to get a record soon after the storm, while the damage is fresh. Further storms and quick fixes can make the picture less clear. In a place like Nash Lee, a barn or garage roof left to fail puts whatever is inside at risk. It is worth including them in a survey before a winter does the damage.
The Premium Survey includes thermal imaging and drone inspection where applicable, from £400 inc. VAT. We can help you choose the package that fits what you’d like to know.

Before you book anyone
- Which viewpoints they use to see the roof
- How long they’ve been surveying roofs
- Whether you can ask questions once you have the report
- How long the report takes to arrive
Should I look at the roof myself first?
You can learn a lot from ground level. With binoculars, look for slipped or missing slates and tiles, gaps along the ridge and leaning chimneys. Please do not climb up for a closer look.
If you have a loft with safe access, take a look inside. Take a torch and only step on boards or joists, checking for stains, damp wood or chinks of daylight.
