Storm damage roof reports for homes and businesses in Nash Street

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, slate and tile slopes and chimney stacks, and common reasons people get in touch are damaged gutters and fascias and gaps where slates or tiles have gone.

For a small place like Nash Street, the inspection is the same as anywhere: we simply plan the journey and access ahead. It helps to know where the water appears, in what weather, and what you’ve seen outside, plus any earlier repairs. If you have photos of the water coming in, they help as well.

It isn’t only a list of defects. It explains what we found, why it matters and what we recommend.

Why it is worth a survey now in Nash Street

Knowing whether older wear played a part helps you understand your position. We record storm damage and older defects, so there are no surprises later. Outbuildings and barns around Nash Street are easy to forget, but a failed roof there can spoil what’s stored inside. A quick look before winter can save a lot.

Simple, low roofs take less time to survey than tall or complicated ones, and the package you pick makes a difference too. The price is always agreed first.

Why us?

  • Prices that include VAT
  • We hold a CAA Flyer ID and Operator ID
  • 5,000+ surveys completed
  • Visits on any day of the week

When to book a survey in Nash Street

Branches and trees often come down on roofs during storms. The report shows what was hit and the damage caused, backed up with photos.

We are frequently asked to look at:

  • New damp or leaks inside
  • Flashings pulled away from walls or stacks
  • Gaps where slates or tiles have gone
  • Gutters pulled loose in the wind

Take a building like Istead Rise Primary School: a leak through a large roof is often found some distance from where the water shows inside.

Before you book any roof surveyor

  • Is VAT included in the price?
  • Whether the loft is part of the inspection
  • Whether you can ask questions once you have the report
  • When you will get the report

What to expect from a roof survey

Wind, rain and roofs in Nash Street

Nash Street is within about 5 miles of the coast, where storms can bring strong gusts off the sea. What counts as a storm is set by each policy, often gusts of around 55 mph, and the insurer makes the decision. About 1.8 miles east lies Cobham College, a reminder of how long the area around Nash Street has been built on. If yours is one of the older homes, expect a mix of original materials and later repairs on the roof, and the council can say whether a home is in a conservation area.

Take an older house close to Church of St Mildred: old mortar, worn lead and slipped slates are the usual suspects when water gets in. Homes near green spaces such as Jeskyns can get more leaves in their gutters in autumn, and an overflowing gutter soon means a wet wall.

Landlord and commercial surveys in Nash Street

Buyers’ agents can book surveys on behalf of their clients. The report is emailed, so it can go straight to your client.

Letting agents often book on a landlord’s behalf, and the report can go to both. We agree a time with the tenant beforehand.

When you need someone else

Our findings are based on what we can see safely on the day, so there are some things a survey can’t cover:

  • A price for the repairs
  • Acting for you with the insurer
  • Areas we can’t see safely

Not sure which survey suits your roof? You can phone 07833 053749 or drop us an email and we will tell you. What our survey covers.

What this survey covers

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

What you can safely check yourself

After strong wind, take a look from the pavement or garden: broken slates or tiles in the garden, gaps along the ridge or loose lead are signs to note. Don’t go up yourself.

After heavy rain, check ceilings and the tops of walls for new stains. Take a photo and write down when you saw it.

FAQs for Nash Street

Is Nash Street within the area you cover?

We do. Villages and rural addresses get the same survey as a town house, with the route planned beforehand.

How do I find out if my home in Nash Street is listed?

Your council is the best source, with Historic England’s list for listed buildings. A change of roofing material may need consent in either case, and councils can also use Article 4 directions.

Do you survey roofs on blocks of flats?

Yes, if whoever owns or manages the building agrees access. On a shared roof we can only inspect the parts we are allowed to reach, and the report makes that clear.

Do you act for me with my insurer?

No. We are not loss adjusters and don’t act for you with the insurer. We provide an independent record of the roof for you to send to your insurer.

Should I go up on the roof to take photos?

Stay off the roof. Take photos from ground level or from windows. Record the date and any damage inside as well.

Is this a RICS survey?

No. Our survey is a roof survey, not a RICS Level 2 or Level 3 survey of the whole building. It focuses on the roof, so it sits alongside a building survey rather than replacing it.

How do I arrange a storm damage roof report in Nash Street?

To arrange a survey, ring 07833 053749 or send us an email with the address, the type of property and what’s prompted the survey. We will confirm the price and agree a day with you.

How the survey works

You do not need to do much on the day. Show us any stains, drips or problem areas you know about, and we will take it from there. The survey itself takes about one to two hours on an ordinary house, with bigger or more complicated roofs taking longer. Rural addresses near Nash Street can be hard to find from a postcode alone, so a few directions, or a note of a nearby landmark, help us arrive on time. After that, the survey runs as it would anywhere.

  1. We start with the details: when the storm hit and what damage you can see.
  2. We view the roof from wherever it can safely be seen, including the loft where there is access.
  3. We photograph and record every area of damage we can see.
  4. The likely cause is recorded, along with any evidence of older wear.
  5. You get a written report you can pass to your insurer.

Before the survey

  • Show us where any leaks or stains appear
  • If it is not your property yet, arrange access through the agent
  • Check the loft hatch can be reached

Booking a survey

Our price is from £150, including VAT. The exact figure depends on the roof and the package, so call 07833 053749 or send us an email with the details.
