What affects the cost of storm damage roof reports
Several things affect the price of a survey:
- Extra roofs, like extensions, dormers or garages
- Whether you choose the Basic, Standard or Premium Survey
- Building height and the viewpoints available
- If the survey needs thermal imaging or a drone
Every price we give includes VAT, and the written report is part of the package. Our price is from £150, including VAT. Size, height and access decide where your roof falls.
What we need to know
You don’t need to know any roofing terms. Just tell us:
- When you need the report by
- The kind of building and roof involved
- How the loft is reached, if there is one
- Where water is showing inside, if it is
A quick phone call is normally the easiest start: call 07833 053749 or email us, and we will ask about the building and what you need. The price is agreed before a date is set.
How a storm damage roof report works in Pitch Green
If your roof has been damaged, stay safe first. Take photos from the ground or from windows, and don’t climb onto the roof. If water is coming in, a roofer can put temporary protection in place. Our report records the damage so you have an independent record to give your insurer. Hold on to receipts for anything you pay for. If you’re worried about lifted or missing ridge and hip tiles and flat roof edges peeled back, a survey will tell you what’s going on, on gutters and fascias, flat roofs and slate and tile slopes alike.
In a village or hamlet like Pitch Green, older cottages and farmhouses frequently have roofs that have been patched over many years. That makes it hard to tell new damage from old wear, and the difference matters, particularly to an insurer. We check what can be seen safely and set out what we find. Older walls and timbers hold water for a long time, so it is worth finding the cause soon.
If any part of the roof couldn’t be seen safely, we say so in the report. You’ll know exactly what was inspected and what wasn’t, and what we’d suggest next.

What a storm damage roof report looks like in Pitch Green
A number of Buckinghamshire villages keep thatched roofs on their older buildings. In this part of the South East, older roofs are mostly slate or clay tile and many newer ones concrete tile. Knowing the roof type helps narrow down where water may be getting in. Before planning roof work on an older home, find out whether it’s listed or in a conservation area. Changes that affect a listed building’s special interest need listed building consent, and councils can also use Article 4 directions to control changes in conservation areas.
The streets around a church such as Church of the Holy Trinity are frequently among the oldest in a place, and if you own one of the older houses nearby, leaks on older roofs often start at lead flashings, valleys or around old chimney stacks. For site and facilities teams at buildings such as Princes Risborough School, on a building that size, finding the source of a drip means looking well beyond the stain. If you own a rental within reach of Princes Risborough station, a clear finding on where water gets in helps you brief a roofer straight away.

How the survey changes by roof type
Clay and concrete tiles
Tiles can lift, crack or blow off in high winds. We record which are damaged and where.
Ridge and hip tiles
Water can get in where ridge tiles have moved. Each one is recorded with photos.
For landlords and managing agents
Where a roof is shared: we need access agreed with the freeholder or managing agent. Tell us about it as you book and we’ll plan the visit with that in mind.
Businesses and commercial landlords can book us too. Bigger roofs take more time, so they’re priced to suit.
Why it’s worth a survey now in Pitch Green
A few slipped slates can soon lead to wet timbers. Acting quickly normally means less damage overall. For older village homes like those around Pitch Green, the right replacement materials are not always easy to find quickly. That’s one more reason to find defects before they become urgent.
Thermal imaging and drone inspection (where applicable) come with the Premium Survey, which starts from £400, with VAT included. We will tell you which package suits the questions you have.
What you get with us
- An independent look at the roof
- Surveys seven days a week
- Satisfaction rate of 98%

Practical tips
Small things make a difference, both for the survey and for the roof itself. Our tips:
- Check how your policy defines a storm
- Take photos of stains and damp inside
- Keep invoices for temporary repairs
- Take photos from ground level or a window, never by climbing
For repair costs, ask a roofer to quote. The report gives them a clear list of the damage.
Keep gutters and outlets clear so heavy rain can drain away. Overflowing gutters can make storm damage worse.
FAQs for Pitch Green
Does a conservation area affect roof work in Pitch Green?
Check Historic England’s online list first, then ask the council about conservation areas and any Article 4 direction. It matters most if you’re planning to re-roof in a different material.
Is Pitch Green within the area you cover?
Yes, we do. We work right across London and the South East, from towns to the smallest villages. The journey is planned ahead, so it helps to know about access.
Do you climb onto every roof?
Only when it is safe. Safe viewpoints, the loft space and a drone where it applies cover most of what’s needed, and anything out of sight is recorded in the report.
How long will you be at the property?
Most surveys take about one to two hours at most homes, while a commercial roof takes nearer three to four hours. The report follows by email.
Can you survey at the weekend?
Surveys run on any day of the week. To find a day that suits you, ring 07833 053749 or email us.
Is this an asbestos survey?
No. We do not sample or test for asbestos. Where a material might contain it, like old cement sheets on a building from before 2000, the report flags it.
How experienced are you?
We’ve been surveying roofs for over 20 years and have completed over 5,000 surveys across London and the South East.

What happens on the day
Every visit follows the same pattern: we hear what you’ve seen, look at the roof from every safe viewpoint, photograph what we find and make notes for the report. It usually takes roughly 1–2 hours at a house, and longer if the damage is spread across a large roof. For a village or hamlet like Pitch Green, the journey is planned ahead of time: let us know about lanes, gates and parking. The roof is looked at from ground level, from windows, from the loft where there is safe access and from the roof where it is safe.
- First we go through when the storm hit and what you’ve noticed.
- We look at the roof from wherever it’s safe.
- 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 we arrive
- Tell us about parking before the day
- Clear the way to the loft hatch
- Agree roof access with the managing agent if it’s shared
How to book
Photos help, if you have them. Take them safely from ground level or a window; never climb up to get a better view. To send them or to book, phone 07833 053749 or drop us an email.
