What affects the price in Nash

All our prices include VAT. What changes the price is:

  • Commercial roofs and larger buildings
  • How many separate roofs there are, such as extensions, dormers and garages
  • Whether you choose the Basic, Standard or Premium Survey
  • The roof’s overall size

Price depends partly on the package: Basic from £150, Standard from £250 or Premium from £400, all inc. VAT. Size, height and access can affect the price too.

What to tell us when you get in touch

Getting the details right at the start saves time. Please include:

  • Any photos you have, taken from the ground or a window
  • What made you get in touch
  • The type of building and roof, such as pitched or flat
  • Where water is showing inside, if it is

If you have photos of the roof, send them over. Take them safely from the ground or a window, and please do not climb up for a closer look. To get started, phone 07833 053749 or use the contact form.

How a storm damage roof report works in Nash

After a storm, safety comes first. Photograph the damage from ground level or a window, and never climb up. If water is coming in, a roofer can put temporary protection in place. We then record the damage in a report you can pass to your insurer. Keep receipts for any emergency work. We’re often asked to look into damaged pots on the stack and damage from fallen branches or debris, across ridges and hips, flashings and slate and tile slopes.

Somewhere as small as Nash, older roofs have often been repaired many times. That makes it hard to tell new damage from old wear, which matters if you’re thinking of an insurance claim. The report says what was seen and what it points to. Older walls and timbers hold water for a long time, so it’s worth finding the cause soon.

If any part of the roof couldn’t be seen safely, we say so in the report. You’ll know exactly what was inspected and what wasn’t, and what we’d suggest next.

How the survey changes by roof type

Flat roof coverings

Branches and debris can damage flat roofs or block outlets. Any damage is recorded with photos.

Clay and concrete tiles

Broken or missing tiles leave the underlay exposed to rain. Each gap is recorded with a photo.

What happens if roof problems are left?

Many policies expect damage to be reported promptly. Check the wording and tell your insurer as soon as you can. An independent report can follow. In a small place like Nash, homes can be exposed to wind and rain, which finds any gap, and damp in older walls is slow to dry out.

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.

Why choose Independent Roof Survey in Nash

  • Thermal imaging and drones used where they help
  • Insured for professional indemnity and public liability
  • Independent findings on the roof’s condition
  • A sub-250g drone, flown with a CAA Flyer ID and Operator ID

What we’re asked to look at in Nash

Landlords and building managers frequently need a written record after a storm. The report can be shared with owners, tenants or insurers.

A survey can pick up problems such as:

  • Gutters pulled loose in the wind
  • Lead lifted at abutments
  • Slates and tiles blown off the roof
  • Water coming in after the storm

If you let a flat or house near Milton Keynes Central station, finding the cause of a leak fast keeps a tenant’s home dry and the work focused.

Before you book anyone

  • Whether the loft is part of the inspection
  • Which limits apply to the survey
  • How they’ll see the roof: from the ground, the loft, the roof or by drone
  • How soon the report will arrive

What a good roof survey covers

Common questions in Nash

Is my home in Nash listed or in a conservation area?

For listing, use Historic England’s list; for conservation areas, ask the council. The answer matters most when a change of material is on the cards.

Is Nash in the area you cover?

We do. Every survey there gets the same written report with photos, and visits run on weekdays and weekends.

Who handles emergency protection after a storm?

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

What’s the best way to book?

It’s easiest to phone 07833 053749 or email us. Give us the address and some details about the roof, and we will point you to the right survey. We survey on weekdays and at weekends.

Does your report mean my claim will be accepted?

The decision is your insurer’s, not ours. Our report records what is damaged, with photos, and the likely cause, for you to give to your insurer.

Is this an asbestos survey?

No. Our report may flag materials that could contain asbestos, but confirming it is a job for a specialist asbestos surveyor. It may be present in buildings built or refurbished before 2000.

Is wear and tear covered by insurance?

Wear and tear is usually excluded from home insurance. Our report records storm damage and any older wear we see, so you know what the roof shows. Your insurer decides how its policy applies.

What a storm damage roof report does not cover

This is not a RICS building survey, a structural engineer’s report or an asbestos survey. It also has these limits:

  • The work of a loss adjuster appointed by your insurer
  • Your insurer’s view of the claim
  • A price for the repairs

Not sure which survey suits your roof? You can call 07833 053749 or send us an email and we’ll tell you. The full list of what we check.

Roofs we survey in Nash

  • Slate and tile slopes
  • Flashings
  • Chimney stacks
  • Ridges and hips
  • Flat roofs
  • Gutters and fascias

What we do, step by step

Safety comes first on every visit. We inspect what can safely be seen, and anything we can’t see is noted in the report. Most visits take about 1–2 hours at a house, and longer if the damage is spread across a large roof. Older roofs in small places like Nash can have low, tight loft spaces, so it is useful to know whether there’s a loft hatch and how easy it is to reach. Only areas that can be reached safely are inspected.

  1. We start with what you’ve seen and any temporary repairs.
  2. Inside, we look for signs of water in the loft and rooms below.
  3. We view the roof from safe positions.
  4. Storm damage and older wear are recorded separately where we can.
  5. You receive the written report with photographs.

Before we arrive

  • Note where any stains or damp appear
  • Make sure pets are kept safely away
  • Jot down any questions you want answered

Getting a price

We survey roofs on any day of the week. To find a date that works for you, call 07833 053749 or use the contact form with the address and the days you’d prefer.

Leaks and storm damage in Nash

In this part of the South East, older roofs are mostly slate or clay tile and many newer ones concrete tile. Different coverings let water in at different points, which shapes where the search starts. Before planning roof work on an older home, find out whether it is listed or in a conservation area. Listed building consent covers changes to a listed building’s special interest, and an Article 4 direction can bring extra controls in a conservation area.

If your house is among the older ones in the streets near Church of All Saints, the leak may come from a chimney, a valley or tired lead rather than the covering itself.
