About our storm damage roof report in North Crawley
Storms tend to find the weak points on a roof. Typical damage includes lost slates and tiles, lifted ridges, loose flashings and torn flat roof coverings. Trees and branches can also hit roofs in a storm. We record the damage on your roof and photograph each part. Where we also see signs of older wear, the report records that too. We survey flat roofs, flashings and chimney stacks, and people most often book us about roofs hit by falling trees and flat roof edges peeled back.
Being in a small place like North Crawley makes no difference to how a leak or storm damage is looked at: the journey and access are just planned in advance. Let us know where the water shows, when it appears and anything you’ve noticed outside, along with any repairs done before. If you have photos of the water coming in, they help as well.
After the visit, you get a written report with photographs, emailed to you. It sets out the condition of the roof, any defects and our written recommendations.

What we are asked to look at in North Crawley

Look out for signs like these:
- Lead lifted at abutments
- Stains appearing after strong winds
- Flat roof edges peeled back
- Holes or cracks caused by debris
Take an older house close to Church of St Firmin: lead flashings, valleys and old chimneys are typical places for water to get in.

North Crawley roofs and the weather
Older houses in the South East frequently have slate or clay tile roofs, while many later estates have concrete tiles, with flat-roofed extensions, dormers and garages common everywhere. Where water gets in depends a good deal on what the roof is made of and how it’s detailed. With Linford Manor about 4.8 miles west, North Crawley sits in an area with a long building history. On older houses around here, roofs often carry the marks of earlier repairs, from replaced slates to new lead, and a listed home or one in a conservation area may need consent for changes of material.
If you look after a building like North Crawley CofE School, water through a big roof can travel a long way before it drips, so the search covers more than the obvious spot.
