About our storm damage roof report in Nether Worton
After a storm, safety comes first. Take photos from ground level or from windows, and do not climb onto the roof. If water is coming in, a roofer can put temporary protection in place. Our report records the damage so you have an independent record to give your insurer. Hold on to receipts for anything you pay for. Common reasons to book are holes or cracks caused by debris and cowls or aerials dislodged in the wind, on ridges and hips, slate and tile slopes and flashings.
For a small place like Nether Worton, the inspection is the same as anywhere: the journey and access are just planned beforehand. Tell us where the water shows, when it appears and anything you’ve noticed outside, plus any earlier repairs. Photographs of the stain and of the roof from outside are helpful too.
You receive the findings by email, ready to forward to whoever needs them. Turnaround is within 48 hours for Basic, 24–48 hours for Standard and same day for Premium.

Storm damage roof reports in Nether Worton: local notes
If your home is older, it’s worth knowing whether it is listed or in a conservation area before planning roof work. 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. Cotswold stone slates are found on older buildings in west Oxfordshire, and thatch survives in some of the county’s villages. Across the South East, older homes tend to have slate or clay tiles, and many later ones concrete tiles. Knowing the roof type helps narrow down where water may be getting in.
If you let a flat or house near Heyford station, a tenant living with a leak needs the cause found, not just the stain painted over.

Why get it checked now?
If a roofer needs to make the roof safe, take photos first if you can do so safely from the ground. Those photos show the damage as it was. Outbuildings and barns around Nether Worton are easy to forget, but a failed roof there can spoil what’s stored inside. It’s worth including them in a survey before a winter does the damage.
Thermal imaging and drone inspection (where applicable) come with the Premium Survey, from £400 inc. VAT. We can help you choose the package that fits what you want to find out.

Flat roof coverings
Debris blown onto a flat roof can puncture the covering or block outlets. We record what we find.
Common roof problems in Nether Worton
Gusts work at anything on a roof that’s loose or exposed. Driving rain then gets in through the gaps. Most people book a report soon after a storm, when they’ve seen damage or water has come in.
Look out for signs like these:
- Damaged pots on the stack
- Damage from fallen branches or debris
- Gutters pulled loose in the wind
- Stains appearing after strong winds
For an older house near a landmark like Church of the Holy Trinity, water on an older roof tends to find its way in at the lead, the valleys or the chimney.

FAQs for Nether Worton
Do you carry out roof surveys in Nether Worton?
Yes. Our area covers London and the South East, and Nether Worton is part of that. Just ring 07833 053749 or use the contact form and let us know about the property, and we’ll talk through which survey suits.
Does a conservation area affect roof work in Nether Worton?
Check Historic England’s online list first, then ask the council about conservation areas and any Article 4 direction. It matters most if you are planning to re-roof in a different material.
Does this replace a RICS home survey?
No. We look at the roof, not the whole building, and it isn’t a RICS Level 2 or Level 3 survey. It can sit alongside a RICS survey if you want both.
Do you act for me with my insurer?
No. Our report is an independent record for you to use. Your insurer may appoint its own loss adjuster.
I live in a flat. Can you survey the roof?
Yes, once whoever controls the roof agrees access. We check the parts we’re given access to, and the report makes that clear.
Do I have to be there for the survey?
Someone needs to let us in if we’re looking inside or in the loft. We will talk about access when you book.
How should I record storm damage myself?
Only from ground level or from windows. Don’t use a ladder or go onto the roof. Binoculars can help you see damage from below and we’ll inspect the rest from safe positions.
How the survey works
The visit usually starts outside and finishes in the loft: first the slopes, edges and gutters from every safe viewpoint, then the loft space where it can be reached. All told, expect about 1–2 hours for most homes, depending on how much of the roof was hit. Older roofs in small places like Nether Worton can have low, tight loft spaces, so let us know about the loft hatch and any ladder. We only go where it is safe.
- First we go through when the storm hit and what you’ve noticed.
- The roof is inspected from safe positions.
- We record and photograph the damage.
- We note the likely cause and any signs of older wear.
- We send you the report by email for your insurer.
Getting ready for the survey
- Make sure we can get to the back of the property
- Tell us about any leaks, stains or damp patches you know of
- Gather any invoices or paperwork from past roof work
Arrange a survey
Booking is simple: just call 07833 053749 or send us an email and give us a few details about the property and we will explain which survey suits. The price is agreed up front.
