Storm damage roof reports for Parslow's Hillock homes and businesses

Storm damage roof report in Parslow's Hillock

After a storm, safety comes first. Photograph the damage from the ground or a window, and never climb up. Emergency temporary protection, such as covering an opening, is a job for a roofer. Our report records the damage so you have an independent record to give your insurer. Keep receipts for any emergency work. We’re frequently asked to look into loose or broken chimney pots and cowls and ridge tiles that have come loose, across ridges and hips, slate and tile slopes and gutters and fascias.

Being in a small place like Parslow's Hillock makes no difference to how a leak or storm damage is looked at: we simply plan the journey and access ahead. Tell us where the water shows, when it appears and anything you’ve noticed outside, along with any repairs done before. Photos of the stain and of the roof from outside are helpful too.

The report works through the roof section by section, from the coverings down to the gutters. You will see the good as well as the bad.

How we price storm damage roof reports

Every roof is different, so prices are confirmed before booking. This is what makes a difference:

  • Which survey package you book
  • Extra roofs, like extensions, dormers or garages
  • Features like valleys, chimneys, dormers and parapets
  • House, block, shop or office

Bigger, taller and commercial roofs take more time to survey, so the price reflects that. You will know the figure before booking.

What to tell us when you get in touch

What helps most when you contact us:

  • What’s prompted the survey
  • Any stains, drips or damp patches you’ve seen indoors
  • Access details, like a loft hatch or a shared roof
  • What kind of property and roof it is

If you have photos of the roof, send them over. Pictures from ground level or a window are fine; never climb up to get a better view. To get started, ring 07833 053749 or use the contact form.

Can I check my roof myself?

The one thing to avoid is getting up close. Slates, tiles, flat roofs and rooflights can give way, and a fall can be serious. That part is for a survey.

Watch the gutters in a downpour, from a window or the ground. Water spilling over the edge can be a sign of a blockage or a gutter that has dropped.

Leave it or get it looked at?

If the damage is partly wear and tear, it’s better to know. Our report gives an honest view of both, so there are no surprises later. In a place like Parslow's Hillock, 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.

What a survey costs comes down to the roof itself: how big it is, how high it is, the number of separate roofs and how safely it can be seen. Storm damage roof report starts from £150, including VAT.

What this survey cannot tell you

It helps to know what a survey will not do before you book:

  • Your insurer’s view of the claim
  • Damage hidden under coverings or inside the structure, without opening up
  • Repair costs or quotes for the work

If in doubt, ring 07833 053749 or use the contact form and we’ll recommend the right survey before booking. What our survey covers.

Roofs we survey in Parslow's Hillock

  • Slate and tile slopes
  • Chimney stacks
  • Flat roofs
  • Ridges and hips
  • Flashings
  • Gutters and fascias

What happens on the day

On the day, we start by asking what you’ve noticed and what you want to find out. We then inspect everything that can safely be seen, using the ground, windows, the loft and a drone where it applies. The survey typically takes roughly 1–2 hours at most homes, and more on a big or complicated roof. Older roofs in small places like Parslow's Hillock can have low, tight loft spaces, so tell us about the loft hatch and any ladder. Only areas that can be reached safely are inspected.

  1. We start with the details: when the storm hit and what damage you can see.
  2. The roof is looked at from the ground, from windows and from the roof space where it is safe.
  3. Each area of damage is photographed and described.
  4. We check whether the damage fits storm damage, older wear or both.
  5. We send you a written report with photos, ready to give to your insurer.

Before the survey

  • Let us know about any leaks, stains or damp patches you know of
  • Dig out any old roof reports or invoices
  • Check the loft hatch can be reached

Getting a price

We confirm the price for the job before booking, so you know where you stand. Prices start from £150, including VAT. For a price for your roof, call 07833 053749 or use the contact form.

When to book a survey in Parslow's Hillock

Some people book because a claim has been questioned. You get an independent record of what the roof shows. What happens next is up to the insurer.

Look out for signs like these:

  • Cowls or aerials dislodged in the wind
  • Water coming in after the storm
  • Damage from fallen branches or debris
  • Torn or lifted flat roof coverings

If you own a rental within reach of Princes Risborough station, tracing a leak quickly matters when a tenant is living with it.

Questions to ask before you book

  • Will the report include photos?
  • How they’ll see the roof: from ground level, the loft, the roof or by drone
  • Which limits apply to the survey
  • How long the report takes to arrive

What’s in a roof survey

Storm damage roof reports in Parslow's Hillock: local notes

Thatch survives on some older buildings in Buckinghamshire’s villages. Older houses in the South East frequently have slate or clay tile roofs, while many later estates have concrete tiles. Where water gets in depends a good deal on what the roof is made of and how it is detailed. Historic houses such as Hughenden Manor, about 4.6 miles south-east, show how far back building in the area around Parslow's Hillock goes. 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.

Take a building like Princes Risborough School: a leak through a large roof is frequently found some distance from where the water shows inside.

FAQs for Parslow's Hillock

Is Parslow's Hillock in the area you cover?

Yes, Parslow's Hillock is one of the places we work. Every survey there gets the same written report with photos, and visits run on weekdays and weekends.

Do you cover smaller places like Parslow's Hillock?

We do. Villages and rural addresses get the same survey as a town house, with the route planned beforehand.

Can you tell me if my claim will be paid?

That is not something we can promise. The decision rests with your insurer and its policy. Our report gives you an independent record of the damage and its likely cause.

Do you climb onto every roof?

Not always. Safety comes first, and fragile or steep roofs cannot always be walked on. Safe viewpoints, the loft and a drone where applicable let us see the rest, and the report records anything we couldn’t see.

Which days do you carry out surveys?

We survey seven days a week: Monday to Friday, Saturdays and Sundays. Just tell us the days that suit you.

Do you look in the loft space?

Where it is relevant to the survey and there is safe access, yes. A clear path to the hatch helps.
