About our storm damage roof report in Nether Wallop

If your roof has been damaged, stay safe first. Take photos from ground level or from windows, and do not climb onto the roof. Emergency temporary protection, like covering an opening, is a job for a roofer. We then record the damage in a report you can pass to your insurer. Hold on to receipts for anything you pay for. If you’ve noticed flashings pulled away from walls or stacks and damage from fallen branches or debris, we can find out what’s behind it, whatever the roof.

Roofs in small places like Nether Wallop often stand in the open, where storms hit ridges, verges and chimneys hardest. Damp in old stone, brick or timber walls is slow to dry out, which makes finding the cause quickly worthwhile. A record with photographs is useful if you need to show the damage to anyone else.

Nothing in the report is left vague: if work is needed, the report says so clearly.

What we do, step by step

Every visit follows the same pattern: we listen to what’s been worrying you, inspect the roof from every safe viewpoint, take photos as we go and make notes for the report. Most visits take between one and two hours at a house, and longer if the damage is spread across a large roof. Somewhere like Nether Wallop needs a little journey planning: let us know about lanes, gates and parking. On the day, we inspect what can be seen safely, inside and out.

  1. You let us know when the storm was and what damage you’ve seen.
  2. We inspect the roof from safe viewpoints and from the loft where there’s access.
  3. The damage is recorded with photographs, area by area.
  4. The likely cause is recorded, along with any evidence of older wear.
  5. The findings are written up with photos for you to share with your insurer.

Preparing for the visit

  • Keep pets out of the way during the survey
  • Point out any leaks or damp patches
  • Move anything stored under the loft hatch

Arrange a survey

If you’re buying, it helps to book soon after your offer is accepted, so you have the findings in time to act on them before you exchange. Otherwise, simply call 07833 053749 or email us whenever suits you.

Tips from our surveys

Over many surveys, some simple habits stand out as worth the effort:

  • Keep invoices for temporary repairs
  • Ask a roofer for emergency temporary protection if water is coming in
  • Check how your policy defines a storm
  • Keep any slates, tiles or debris that fall, if it is safe to do so

If anything in the report isn’t clear, just ask us. The Standard Survey includes a follow-up consultation and the Premium Survey an in-person consultation.

Check the roof from the ground after strong winds. Binoculars help you spot slipped slates or lifted ridges. Never climb onto the roof yourself.

For landlords and managing agents

Landlords, agents and building managers in Nether Wallop and across Hampshire can book any of our surveys. To discuss a property or a block, call 07833 053749 or use the contact form.

An agent can book and manage the survey for a landlord, and the report can go to both. We agree a time with the tenant beforehand.

What a survey costs

Several things affect the price of a survey:

  • Whether you choose the Basic, Standard or Premium Survey
  • The height of the building and how the roof can safely be seen
  • The size of the roof
  • The shape of the roof and its details

Storm damage roof report starts from £150, including VAT. Basic starts from £150, Standard from £250 and Premium from £400, VAT included.

What we need to know

You don’t need to know any roofing terms. Just tell us:

  • When you need the report by
  • What kind of property and roof it is
  • Any marks or damp showing indoors
  • Photos of the roof, taken safely from the ground or a window

To book a survey, phone 07833 053749 or drop us an email with the address and what you’d like to know about the roof. We will confirm the price before you book.

Common questions in Nether Wallop

How do I find out if my home in Nether Wallop is listed?

Start with Historic England’s list for listing and your council for conservation areas. It’s worth checking before planning roof work, as both can affect what’s allowed.

Do you cover Nether Wallop?

We do. The survey and report are the same in Nether Wallop as anywhere else, and visits run on weekdays and weekends.

Do you survey roofs on blocks of flats?

Yes, once whoever controls the roof agrees access. On a shared roof we can only inspect the parts we are allowed to reach, and the report makes that clear.

Does your report mean my claim will be accepted?

Only your insurer can decide that. Our report records what is damaged, with photos, and the likely cause, for you to give to your insurer.

Do you look in the roof space?

If it’s needed and safe to reach, yes. Inside, we look for damp, staining, gaps and sagging.

Can I challenge a declined storm claim?

Start by complaining to the insurer. If it isn’t resolved, the Financial Ombudsman Service may be able to help. The Ombudsman asks about storm conditions, whether the damage is consistent with a storm and whether the storm was the main cause.

How long have you been surveying roofs?

We’ve been surveying roofs for over 20 years and have carried out more than 5,000 surveys.

Leaks and storm damage in Nether Wallop

An older home may be listed, or stand in a conservation area. Historic England’s list shows listed buildings, and the council can say whether a street is in a conservation area. In either case, a change of roofing material may need consent. Some Hampshire villages still have thatched roofs. Slate and clay tile are the usual coverings on older South East houses, with concrete tiles on many later estates. Each of these roof types has its own typical places for water to get in.

The streets around a church like Church of St Andrew are frequently among the oldest in a place, and if your house is among the older ones nearby, water on an older roof tends to find its way in at the lead, the valleys or the chimney. Landlords with a home close to Grateley station may find that finding the cause of a leak fast keeps a tenant’s home dry and the work focused.
