How a storm damage roof report works in Pinkneys Green
Storms tend to find the weak points on a roof. Typical damage includes lost slates and tiles, lifted ridges, loose flashings and torn flat roof coverings. Trees and branches can also hit roofs in a storm. Our report records what has happened to your roof, with photos. Where we also see signs of older wear, the report records that too. Common reasons to book are broken or displaced guttering and slipped or missing slates or tiles, across flat roofs, gutters and fascias and slate and tile slopes.
Older cottages and houses around Pinkneys Green may have roofs with little or no underlay. Once the slates or tiles let water past, there is little to stop it reaching the ceiling. Whether it’s long-term wear or recent damage makes a difference to what happens next. In the loft, damp battens or wet insulation are often the first clues.
We keep jargon out of it: if work is needed, the report says so clearly, and where it can wait, that’s said too.

Tips that help
Some practical points come up on survey after survey. They’re worth knowing whatever the roof:
- Check how your policy defines a storm
- Take photos from the ground or a window, never by climbing
- Check your policy for how to report damage
- Keep fallen slates or tiles as evidence if safe
The insurer might appoint a loss adjuster. Our report gives you an independent record alongside theirs.
Check the roof from ground level after strong winds. With binoculars, you can frequently spot problems without climbing. Never climb onto the roof yourself.

What a storm damage roof report looks like in Pinkneys Green
Historic houses such as Harleyford Manor, about 2.6 miles north-west, show how far back building in the area around Pinkneys Green goes. On older houses around here, roofs often 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. Across the South East, older homes tend to have slate or clay tiles, and many later ones concrete tiles, and flat-roofed additions turn up almost everywhere. Different coverings let water in at different points, which shapes where the search starts.
For site and facilities teams at buildings like Courthouse Junior School, tracing a leak on a big roof starts with where the water appears and works back. If you let a flat or house near Furze Platt station, a tenant living with a leak needs the cause found, not just the stain painted over.

Questions from Pinkneys Green
How do I find out if my home in Pinkneys Green 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, and councils can also use Article 4 directions.
Will you come out to Pinkneys Green?
Yes, Pinkneys Green is covered. We cover the whole of London and South East England, and smaller places are part of that. The journey is planned ahead, so it is useful to know about access.
How do I arrange a storm damage roof report in Pinkneys Green?
To arrange a survey, ring 07833 053749 or drop us an email and let us know the address and what you want to find out. We’ll confirm the price and agree a day with you.
Can I challenge a declined storm claim?
Complain to your insurer first. If you are still unhappy, you may be able to take it to the Financial Ombudsman Service. An independent report can add to your evidence, though we cannot predict the outcome.
I live in a flat. Can you survey the roof?
Yes. Shared roofs just need a little more planning. Mention it when you get in touch and we will explain what’s needed.
Is this an asbestos survey?
No. Asbestos surveys and testing are not part of what we do. We flag materials that could contain asbestos, such as cement sheets or soffits on pre-2000 buildings and suggest a specialist asbestos surveyor checks them before any work.
Do I have to be there for the survey?
If the survey includes the loft or the inside of the building, someone needs to let us in. We’ll talk about access as you book.
What happens if roof problems are left?
A few slipped slates can soon lead to wet timbers. Acting quickly normally means less damage overall. Tradespeople may need to travel further to a smaller place like Pinkneys Green, so it’s useful to plan roof work rather than call someone out in a hurry. Knowing early gives you time to get the right people in.

What we do, step by step
Safety comes first on every visit. We inspect everything that’s safely in view, and anything we cannot see is noted in the report. Most visits take about one to two hours for most homes, depending on how much of the roof was hit. In a smaller place like Pinkneys Green, parking is seldom the issue; lanes, gates and long drives are worth mentioning. On bungalows and lower roofs, much can be seen from the ground, with the loft showing the underside, while taller roofs may need other vantage points or the drone where applicable.
