About our storm damage roof report in Perham Down
What counts as a storm depends on your policy, though many use gusts of about 55 mph. Your policy document sets out its own definition. We do not decide whether a storm met that test. We record the damage and what seems to have caused it. The report includes photographs of each area of damage, and you decide what to send. The claim decision rests with your insurer. We are frequently asked to look into water coming in after the storm and loose or broken chimney pots and cowls, on chimney stacks, flashings and flat roofs.
Being in a small place like Perham Down makes no difference to how a leak or storm damage is looked at: the journey and access are just planned ahead of time. It’s useful to know where the water appears, in what weather, and what you’ve seen outside, along with any repairs done before. Photographs of the stain and of the roof from outside are helpful too.
You receive the findings by email, ready to forward to whoever needs them. Turnaround is within 48 hours for Basic, 24–48 hours for Standard and same day for Premium.

Different roofs, different checks
Slate roofs
After strong winds, we frequently see cracked and slipped slates. Each area is photographed and described.
Ridge and hip tiles
Ridge and hip tiles take the full force of the wind. We record any that have lifted, cracked or come away.
What a survey costs
Our packages start from £150, inc. VAT. What you pay for your roof depends on:
- Height and safe access
- The shape of the roof and its details
- Whether it’s a home or a commercial building
- Extensions, dormers and garages with roofs of their own
The Premium Survey includes thermal imaging and drone inspection where applicable, from £400 including VAT. We’ll tell you which package suits the questions you have.
Getting in touch
If you can, have these to hand when you get in touch:
- When you need the report by
- The property’s address and postcode
- Anything about access we should know
- Photos of the roof, taken safely from ground level or a window
For a price for storm damage roof reports in Perham Down, ring 07833 053749 or email us. The address, the type of property and what you’d like to know help us price the survey accurately.
What you can safely check yourself
Fresh stains on ceilings or walls after rain are worth noting. Photograph them and note the date.
A lot can be seen from ground level. With binoculars, look for slipped or missing slates and tiles, gaps along the ridge and leaning chimneys. Please do not climb up for a closer look.
How it works
We photograph the roof as we go, 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. A typical visit takes between one and two hours for most homes, depending on how much of the roof was hit. Somewhere as small as Perham Down, access is often the only tricky part. Mention any outbuildings, barns or garages you want included, and anything about the roof you already know. Visits can be on weekdays, Saturdays or Sundays.
- First we go through when the storm hit and what you’ve noticed.
- The roof is inspected from safe positions.
- Each area of damage is photographed and described.
- The report notes whether the damage fits a storm, older wear or both.
- You get a written report to pass to your insurer.
Before the survey
- Gather any invoices or paperwork from past roof work
- Leave side gates unlocked
- Note where any stains or damp appear
Arrange a survey
Photos help, if you have them. Pictures from ground level or a window are fine; never climb up to get a better view. To get started, phone 07833 053749 or email us.

Leaks and storm damage in Perham Down
If your home is older, it is worth knowing whether it is listed or in a conservation area before planning roof work. Listed building consent covers changes to a listed building’s special interest, and an Article 4 direction can bring extra controls in a conservation area. Thatch survives on some older buildings in Hampshire’s villages. Older houses in the South East often have slate or clay tile roofs, while many later estates have concrete tiles. Knowing the roof type helps narrow down where water may be getting in.
If you own a rental within reach of Grateley station, finding the cause of a leak fast keeps a tenant’s home dry and the work focused. If you own one of the older houses in the streets near Church of St James, old mortar, worn lead and slipped slates are the usual suspects when water gets in. For site and facilities teams at buildings like The Wellington Academy, tracing a leak on a big roof starts with where the water appears and works back.

Your questions about storm damage roof reports in Perham Down
Is my home in Perham Down listed or in a conservation area?
Your council is the best source, with Historic England’s list for listed buildings. Both listing and conservation areas can limit changes of roofing material, and councils can also use Article 4 directions.
Do you cover smaller places like Perham Down?
Yes, Perham Down is on our map. Villages and rural addresses get the same survey as a town house.
How long will you be at the property?
It typically takes about 1–2 hours for most houses; commercial roofs usually need 3–4 hours. The report follows by email.
Which days do you carry out surveys?
We survey seven days a week: weekdays, Saturdays and Sundays. Just tell us the days that suit you.
How long have you been surveying roofs?
We have completed more than 5,000 surveys, over more than 20 years.
Will you check the loft?
Normally, if there’s one and it can be reached safely. From inside, the underside of the roof frequently shows damp, staining or daylight that can’t be seen from outside.
Can you survey a shared roof?
Yes, once whoever controls the roof agrees access. On a shared roof we can only inspect the parts we are allowed to reach.
