How a storm damage roof report works in North Mundham
If your roof has been damaged, stay safe 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. Our report records the damage so you have an independent record to give your insurer. Keep receipts for any emergency work. Typical surveys look at lead lifted at abutments and water coming in after the storm, on chimney stacks, flashings and gutters and fascias.
Roofs in small places like North Mundham 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, so it pays to find the cause quickly. A written record also helps if you need to explain it to anyone else.
If any part of the roof couldn’t be seen safely, we say so in the report. That way, it is clear what was covered and what wasn’t.

Useful tips for North Mundham property owners
Small things make a difference, both for the survey and for the roof itself. Our tips:
- Keep any slates, tiles or debris that fall, if it is safe to do so
- File receipts for anything you pay for
- Check how your policy defines a storm
- Take photos from ground level or a window, never by climbing
The report is emailed to you, and you decide what to send to your insurer. It is your record to use.
Keep records of roof work and surveys. They can help show the roof was looked after.
What this survey cannot tell you
A survey is a close look at the roof, but it can’t do everything. The main limits are:
- What’s beneath slates, tiles or membranes
- What your policy covers, which depends on its wording
- Negotiating a claim settlement
If in doubt, phone 07833 053749 or use the contact form and we will point you to the right survey. What a survey covers and does not.
What we check
- Gutters and fascias
- Ridges and hips
- Flat roofs

What a survey costs
Every roof is different, so prices are confirmed before booking. This is what makes a difference:
- Any need for thermal images or a drone flight
- The package you choose: Basic, Standard or Premium
- Building height and the viewpoints available
- How complicated the roof is, with its valleys, chimneys and parapets
There are three survey packages: the Basic Survey from £150, the Standard Survey from £250 and the Premium Survey from £400, all with VAT included. The price for your roof depends on its size, access and what you need to know.
What to tell us when you get in touch
A little information up front helps. It helps to include:
- Where water is showing inside, if it is
- Any deadline, such as an exchange date
- Where the property is, with the postcode
- Pictures from the garden or a window, if you have them
Surveys can be booked for weekdays, Saturdays or Sundays. To arrange a day that suits you, ring 07833 053749 or email us.

North Mundham roofs and the weather
North Mundham is within about 3 miles of the coast, where storms can bring strong gusts off the sea. What counts as a storm is set by each policy, frequently gusts of around 55 mph, and the insurer makes the decision. In Sussex, older roofs are often handmade clay tile, frequently with tile-hanging on the walls below. Some old buildings in Sussex have Horsham stone slab roofs. Where water gets in depends a good deal on what the roof is made of and how it’s detailed.
With Goodwood House about 4 miles north, the area around North Mundham has a long history. Older roofs in the area may have lead flashings, valleys and gutters that have been patched many times. Take an older house close to The Parish Church of St Stephen: the leak may come from a chimney, a valley or tired lead rather than the covering itself. If you look after a building such as North Mundham Primary School, water through a big roof can travel a long way before it drips, so the search covers more than the obvious spot.
North Mundham is about 2 miles south-east of Chichester, in West Sussex. From houses to flats and shops in North Mundham, the roof can be surveyed. North Mundham is one of the towns and villages in West Sussex we cover for storm damage roof reports. We also survey roofs in Portsmouth.

How the survey works
We work from the outside in: outside views come first, then the loft space if there is safe access. In total, it takes about 1–2 hours at a house, and longer if the damage is spread across a large roof. Older rural homes like those around North Mundham can have a main roof, lower lean-to roofs and outbuildings all joined together. Each part is looked at from wherever it can safely be seen.
- You let us know when the storm was and what damage you’ve seen.
- We view the roof from wherever it can be seen safely, including the loft where there is access.
- We photograph and record every area of damage we can see.
- The likely cause is recorded, along with any evidence of older wear.
- The findings are written up with photos for you to share with your insurer.
Before the survey
- Leave a clear route to the loft
- Let us know about parking before the day
- Keep pets inside or away from the areas we’re looking at

Advice
How the survey changes by roof type
Clay and concrete tiles
Broken or missing tiles leave the underlay exposed to rain. We photograph each gap.
Slate roofs
Natural slate can last 100 years or more, but the nails frequently fail first. The report records whether slipped slates look like storm damage or older wear.
Questions from North Mundham
Does being near the coast affect roofs in North Mundham?
Places near the sea get more wind and more salt in the air than inland, and both are hard on roofs. Salt is hard on nails, clips and metal flashings, while strong wind lifts anything already loose.
Do you cover smaller places like North Mundham?
Yes. North Mundham is within the area we cover, which takes in towns, villages and rural addresses. We survey roofs across London and South East England. Just mention lanes, gates or anything else about the route as you book.
Will you fly a drone over my roof?
Yes, where it is applicable. Flights depend on the weather on the day and airspace rules. We hold a CAA Flyer ID and Operator ID.
How long will you be at the property?
It normally takes between one and two hours on an ordinary house, and more on a big or complicated roof. You’ll then get the report by email, on the timescale of your package.
How experienced are you?
We have more than 20 years’ experience and have carried out more than 5,000 surveys.
Will you walk on the roof?
Only where it’s safe to do so. We check everything that can be seen safely: from ground level, from windows and vantage points, from the roof space, from the roof itself where safe and by drone where applicable. The report says if anything couldn’t be seen.
Who handles emergency protection after a storm?
Emergency temporary protection is a job for a roofer. Photograph the damage first if you can do so safely. We can record the damage in our report.
