About our storm damage roof report in Pinner Green
After a storm, it helps to have a clear record of what happened to your roof. We photograph the damage, describe it and note whether it fits storm damage, older wear or both. We are not loss adjusters and cannot tell you if your claim will succeed. What we give you is an independent record of the roof. If you’ve noticed roofs hit by falling trees and lifted or missing ridge and hip tiles, a survey will tell you what’s going on, on flat roofs, flashings and ridges and hips alike.
London’s Victorian and Edwardian roofs have often been repaired many times, so a new leak can be the latest sign of wear rather than a single event. Insurers normally exclude wear and tear, so it helps to know whether damage is old or new. That’s as true in Pinner Green as anywhere in London. A written record with photos helps you explain what was found to whoever deals with it next.
Most points in the report come with a picture, because a photo of a cracked flashing says more than a paragraph. Anything out of sight on the day is listed as such.

Landlords, agents and block managers in Pinner Green
If the property is let, the agent or a tenant can let us in, at a time agreed ahead of time. We survey seven days a week, which can make access easier.
Freeholders and residents’ companies use a roof report to plan and budget, putting the urgent items at the top.
Checking the roof from ground level
Look up at the roof after a storm, from ground level: broken slates or tiles in the garden, gaps along the ridge or loose lead are signs to note. Leave anything above ground level to a survey.
You can learn a lot from ground level. Binoculars help you spot slipped slates or tiles, gaps along the ridge and a leaning stack. Please don’t climb up for a closer look.
Questions from Pinner Green
Do you cover Pinner Green?
Yes, Pinner Green is within the area we cover. We cover the whole of London and South East England. You can phone 07833 053749 or send us an email with the address and some details.
Is parking a problem for a survey in Pinner Green?
It can be, so it helps to let us know about permits, visitor bays or off-street space when you book. That way the visit can be planned around it.
What wind speed counts as a storm?
There’s no single figure. Many policies treat gusts of about 55 mph as storm conditions, but it varies. Your policy document will say.
Will you go up on the roof?
Not always. Safety comes first, and fragile or steep roofs cannot always be walked on. Safe viewpoints, the loft and a drone where it applies let us see the rest.
Can I check the roof after a storm?
Please do not climb onto the roof. Take photos from the ground or from windows. Record the date and any damage inside as well.
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 when you book.
Do you survey roofs on blocks of flats?
Yes. A shared roof needs access agreed first, with whoever owns or manages the building. Tell us about it when booking and we will plan the survey around it.

How we price storm damage roof reports
Not every roof costs the same to survey, and it comes down to:
- Basic, Standard or Premium
- If the survey needs thermal imaging or a drone
- The type of building, from a house to a block or an office
- Features like valleys, chimneys, dormers and parapets
The cost of a survey depends on the roof: its size, its height, how many sections it has and how safely it can be seen. Prices start from £150, including VAT.
What we need to know
You do not need to know any roofing terms. Just let us know:
- The reason for the survey, like buying, a leak or storm damage
- Pictures of the roof from a safe spot, if you have them
- The style of property, from a terrace to a block
- When you need the report by
We confirm the price for your roof before you book, so you know where you stand. Storm damage roof report starts from £150, including VAT. For a price for your roof, call 07833 053749 or drop us an email.
Practical tips
A little preparation and a few simple habits help. Some pointers:
- Keep a note of the date of the storm
- Record any water damage in rooms and the loft
- Get a roofer to make the roof safe if needed
- Report the damage to your insurer as soon as you can
You get the report by email and pass it to your insurer yourself. We do not deal with the insurer on your behalf.
Check the roof from the ground after strong winds. With binoculars, you can often spot problems without climbing. Never climb onto the roof yourself.
How it works
There isn’t much for you to do on the day. Point out anything you’ve noticed, such as stains, drips or loose pieces, and we’ll take it from there. A typical survey takes roughly 1–2 hours for a house, and longer for a large or complex roof. In converted houses and mansion blocks, the loft hatch is often on a shared landing. Where that’s the case, access needs agreeing with whoever controls that landing. Everything else is planned around the building, not the postcode.
- You let us know when the storm was and what damage you’ve seen.
- We inspect the roof from safe viewpoints and from the loft where there’s access.
- We photograph and record every area of damage we can see.
- We note the likely cause, including any signs of wear that were there before the storm.
- We send you a written report with photos, ready to give to your insurer.
Getting ready for the survey
- Make sure the loft hatch can be reached
- Agree roof access with the managing agent if it is shared
- Note where any stains or damp appear
Arrange a survey
Booking is simple: just phone 07833 053749 or drop us an email and give us some details about the property and we’ll point you to the right survey. The price is agreed up front.

Pinner Green roofs and the weather
Outer London has plenty of Victorian and Edwardian terraces with slate roofs, but also a great many interwar semis, often with hipped roofs in clay or concrete tiles. If your home in Pinner Green is one of them, bay roofs, hips and later dormers each have their own details. The covering and its details give the first clues when tracing where water is coming from. Historic houses such as Headstone Manor, about 1.7 miles east, show how far back building in the area around Pinner Green goes. If yours is one of the older homes, expect a mix of original materials and later repairs on the roof, and the council can say whether a home is in a conservation area.
If you look after a shop, office or commercial unit, for instance near St. George's Shopping Centre, water through a ceiling can damage stock and close a sales floor, so the source needs finding fast. If you live in an older home near Christian Science Church, old mortar, worn lead and slipped slates are the usual suspects when water gets in. If you look after a building such as Harlyn Primary School, water through a big roof can travel a long way before it drips, so the search covers more than the obvious spot.
