Roof by roof
Clay and concrete tiles
Tiles can lift, crack or blow off in high winds. We record which are damaged and where.
Slate roofs
In high winds, slates can slip or go, frequently where nails have rusted. We record which slates have moved and any signs of older nail fatigue.
Storm damage roof report in Nyewood
Many policies treat gusts of about 55 mph as storm conditions, but it varies by policy. Check your own policy wording. We don’t decide whether a storm met that test. We record the damage and what seems to have caused it. Each area of damage is photographed, and the report is yours to pass on. The claim decision rests with your insurer. We survey flashings, slate and tile slopes and chimney stacks, and common reasons people get in touch are stains appearing after strong winds and loose or torn flashings.
For a small place like Nyewood, the inspection is the same as anywhere: the journey and access are just planned beforehand. 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 photographs of the water coming in, they help as well.
We keep jargon out of it: if work is needed, the report says so clearly, along with how urgent it is.

Common questions in Nyewood
Is Nyewood in the area you cover?
We do. Every survey there gets the same written report with photographs, and visits run on weekdays and weekends.
How do I find out if my home in Nyewood 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.
Can you tell me if my claim will be paid?
We cannot say whether a claim will be paid. The decision rests with your insurer and its policy. Our report gives you an independent record of the damage and its likely cause.
How experienced are you?
We have more than 20 years’ experience and have carried out more than 5,000 surveys across London and South East England.
Does this replace a RICS home survey?
No. It is a specialist roof survey, not a RICS Level 2 or Level 3 building survey. It focuses on the roof, so it sits alongside a building survey rather than replacing it.
Will you fly a drone over my roof?
Where it helps and the rules allow, yes. We hold a CAA Flyer ID and Operator ID and fly a drone under 250g, and the airspace and weather are checked before every flight.
What does a storm damage report cost?
Prices start from £150, including VAT. Bigger roofs are quoted on size and access. It doesn’t include repair costs, so you’ll need a roofer’s quote for those.

Shared roofs need a little more planning: access has to be agreed with whoever owns or manages the building. Tell us about it as you book and we’ll plan the survey around it.
A roof problem in a let property affects your tenants as well as the building. A survey helps you spot issues early and plan the work with less disruption.
Should I look at the roof myself first?
Fresh stains on ceilings or walls after rain are worth noting. Take a photo and write down when you saw it.
Keep a simple record: when leaks happen, ground-level photos and any past roof work. Share it with us when you book and it will help the survey.
What happens if roof problems are left?
If the damage is partly wear and tear, it is better to know. We record storm damage and older defects, so there are no surprises later. In a place like Nyewood, a barn or garage roof left to fail puts whatever is inside at risk. It’s worth including them in a survey before a winter does the damage.
Our price is from £150, including VAT. The final price depends on the size and height of the roof, access and the package you choose.

Common roof problems in Nyewood
Strong winds lift loose or poorly fixed slates and tiles, ridge pieces and flashings. Rain can then blow in where slates or tiles have gone. People typically call us after a storm, once they’ve noticed damage or a leak.
Look out for signs like these:
- Damage from fallen branches or debris
- Lead lifted at abutments
- Slipped or missing slates or tiles
- Stains appearing after strong winds

What a storm damage roof report looks like in Nyewood
About 2.7 miles south-west lies Uppark, a reminder of how long the area around Nyewood has been built on. On older houses around here, roofs frequently 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. A number of Hampshire villages keep thatched roofs on their older buildings. Across the South East, older homes tend to have slate or clay tiles, and many later ones concrete tiles. Where water gets in depends a good deal on what the roof is made of and how it is detailed.

The survey, step by step
We work from the outside in: outside views come first, then the loft space if there’s safe access. In total, it takes about one to two hours for most homes, depending on how much of the roof was hit. In a hamlet or village like Nyewood, a postcode doesn’t always lead to the right gate, so a few directions are welcome. After that, the survey runs as it would anywhere.
- We start with what you’ve seen and any temporary repairs.
- Inside, we look for signs of water in the loft and rooms below.
- The roof is inspected from the ground, windows and the roof where it is safe.
- We record fresh damage and older defects.
- You receive the written report with photographs.
Preparing for the visit
- Make sure pets are kept safely away
- Unlock side gates and any roof access doors
- Jot down any questions you want answered
