How the survey works

Photographs are taken throughout the visit, so the report shows exactly what we saw. We take close-ups from wherever is safe, including by drone where it’s applicable and the weather allows. Most surveys take between one and two hours on an ordinary house, though large, tall or awkward roofs take more time. In a small place like Pearson's Green, access is usually the main thing to plan. Let us know about outbuildings, past repairs and any leaks you’ve noticed. Weekday and weekend visits are available.

  1. You let us know what happened and whether a roofer has made the roof safe.
  2. We check inside, including the loft where there’s access, for water damage.
  3. The roof is inspected from ground level, windows and the roof where it is safe.
  4. Storm damage and older wear are recorded separately where we can.
  5. The report, with photos, is emailed to you.

Before we arrive

  • Have any questions written down, so nothing gets missed

Arrange a survey

Most bookings start with a short call: call 07833 053749 or send us an email, and we’ll ask about the building and what you need. The price is agreed before a date is set.

Storm damage roof report in Pearson's Green

Most policies don’t cover wear and tear. So it matters whether the damage came from the storm or from a roof that was already worn. Our report records both: recent damage alongside any older defects, like nail fatigue on slates or eroded pointing. We give an honest view of what we see. How the policy applies is for your insurer to decide. If you are worried about new damp or leaks inside and torn or lifted flat roof coverings, a survey will tell you what’s going on, whatever the roof.

For a small place like Pearson's Green, 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. If you have photos of the water coming in, they help as well.

The report works through the roof section by section, from the coverings down to the gutters, with a note and a photo for each point. It records what’s sound as well as what is not.

Signs you need a storm damage roof report in Pearson's Green

Storms do not only affect pitched roofs. Coverings can tear or peel back at the edges, and water can pond where outlets are blocked. We record what we find on flat and pitched roofs alike.

These are some of the problems a survey can pick up:

  • Lifted or missing ridge and hip tiles
  • Lead lifted at abutments
  • Holes or cracks caused by debris
  • Cowls or aerials dislodged in the wind

If you let a flat or house near Paddock Wood station, finding the cause of a leak fast keeps a tenant’s home dry and the work focused.

What to check before booking

  • What follow-up you get after the report
  • How they’ll see the roof: from ground level, the loft, the roof or by drone
  • What the report includes, and whether it has photographs
  • Which limits apply to the survey

What a roof survey includes

Should I look at the roof myself first?

It is useful to keep a record: when leaks happen, ground-level photos and any past roof work. Share it with us as you book and it will help the survey.

Watch the gutters in a downpour, from a window or the ground. Overflowing water can point to a blockage or a sagging run.

Why get it checked now?

Leaving storm damage can let water into the loft space and rooms below. Further water damage can blur what the storm actually did. A roofer should deal with emergency protection quickly. In a small place like Pearson's Green, homes can be exposed to wind and rain, which finds any gap, and damp in older walls is slow to dry out.

Our price is from £150, including VAT. Packages run from Basic at £150 through Standard at £250 to Premium at £400, with VAT included, and we can help you choose.

Why us?

  • A sub-250g drone, flown with a CAA Flyer ID and Operator ID
  • Drones and thermal imaging where applicable
  • 5,000+ roofs surveyed
  • Satisfaction rate of 98%

Different roofs, different checks

Flat roof coverings

Lifted trims and laps are common after a storm. We look at whether the damage is recent or older.

Ridge and hip tiles

Water can get in where ridge tiles have moved. We photograph and describe the damage.

Pearson's Green: your questions answered

Is Pearson's Green within the area you cover?

Yes, we do. Our area covers London and the South East, and smaller places are part of that. Longer journeys are simply planned beforehand.

Do you carry out roof surveys in Pearson's Green?

Yes. We survey roofs across London and the South East, and Pearson's Green is part of that. You can phone 07833 053749 or send us an email with the address and some details.

Do I need to be at home?

Not necessarily. An outside-only look can be arranged beforehand, but anything inside needs someone there to give access.

Will you check the loft?

If it’s needed and safe to reach, yes. Inside, we look for damp, staining, gaps and sagging.

Do you test for asbestos?

No. Asbestos surveys and testing aren’t part of what we do. If we see materials that could contain asbestos, such as cement roof sheets or soffits on buildings from before 2000, we flag them and suggest a specialist asbestos surveyor checks them before any work.

Will my insurer pay for an old roof?

Insurers typically exclude wear and tear. Our report gives an honest view of what’s recent damage and what’s older wear. Your insurer decides the claim.

Which days do you carry out surveys?

We survey seven days a week: Monday to Friday, Saturdays and Sundays. Tell us which days suit you when you book.

Prices for storm damage roof reports in Pearson's Green

Survey packages start from £150, with VAT included. The price for your roof depends on:

  • The use of thermal imaging or a drone
  • How complicated the roof is, with its valleys, chimneys and parapets
  • Which survey package you book
  • How tall the building is and how easy the roof is to see

One thing that affects the price is the package: Basic from £150, Standard from £250 or Premium from £400, all including VAT. The roof’s size, height and access matter as well.

Booking your survey

Getting the details right at the start saves time. Please include:

  • What’s prompted the survey
  • Any photos you have, taken from the ground or a window
  • The style of property, from a terrace to a block
  • Where any leaks, stains or damp patches show inside

Booking is simple: just call 07833 053749 or send us an email and give us a few details about the property and we’ll explain which survey suits. We confirm the price before anything is booked.

Wind, rain and roofs in Pearson's Green

Scotney Castle, about 5 miles south, is one of the historic houses in the wider area around Pearson's Green. Period homes nearby can have lead valleys, tall chimneys and a patchwork of past repairs, and a listed home or one in a conservation area may need consent for changes of material. Handmade clay tiles, including Kent peg tiles hung on pegs through two holes, are typical of older Kent buildings. The county’s older buildings also include oast houses and timber-framed Wealden hall houses. Each of these roof types has its own typical places for water to get in.

If you look after a building like Mascalls School, water through a big roof can travel a long way before it drips, so the search covers more than the obvious spot.
