About our storm damage roof report in Quarley
Wear and tear is usually excluded from home insurance. That makes the difference between storm damage and old wear important. Our report records both: recent damage alongside any older defects, like nail fatigue on slates or eroded pointing. We describe what we see, whichever way it points. Your insurer then decides how its policy applies. We survey ridges and hips, slate and tile slopes and gutters and fascias, and common reasons people get in touch are stains appearing after strong winds and gaps where slates or tiles have gone.
For a small place like Quarley, the inspection is the same as anywhere: the journey and access are just planned in advance. It helps to know where the water appears, in what weather, and what you’ve seen outside, along with any repairs done before. Photos of the stain and of the roof from outside are helpful too.
After the visit, you get a written report with photos, emailed to you. It sets out the condition of the roof, any defects and our written recommendations.

How it works
Expect us to ask a few questions before we start, like when any problem began and what work has been done before. The inspection then takes roughly 1–2 hours on an ordinary house; commercial roofs usually need 3–4 hours. Somewhere like Quarley needs a little journey planning: let us know about lanes, gates and parking. The roof is looked at from the ground, from windows, from the loft where there’s safe access and from the roof where it’s 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.
- We note the likely cause and any signs of older wear.
- You get a written report to pass to your insurer.
Before we arrive
- If the roof is shared, arrange access with whoever manages the building
- Mention any parking restrictions on your street
- Move anything stored under the loft hatch
Booking a survey
When you are ready to go ahead, phone 07833 053749 or send us an email. We’ll suggest a package, agree the price and find a date, weekday or weekend.

Practical tips
There is plenty you can do without going near the roof. What helps most:
- Note the date and time you first saw the damage
- Record any water damage in rooms and the loft
- Take photos from the ground or a window, never by climbing
- Keep any slates, tiles or debris that fall, if it’s safe to do so
If you’re unhappy with how your insurer handles the claim, you can complain to them first. After that, you may be able to take it to the Financial Ombudsman Service.
Clear gutters and outlets before the stormy months. Overflowing gutters can make storm damage worse.
DIY checks: what’s safe
Keep a simple 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.
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. Do not go up yourself.
What this survey cannot tell you
No survey can tell you everything, and it is better to know them up front. Bear these in mind:
- Whether your insurer will pay the claim
- Estimates of repair costs
- Damage hidden under coverings or inside the structure, without opening up
If in doubt, call 07833 053749 or send us an email and we’ll recommend the right survey. What our survey covers.

Common roof problems in Quarley
Some people book because a claim has been questioned. You get an independent record of what the roof shows. We cannot say whether the decision will change.
Here are some of the things we see often:
- Gaps where slates or tiles have gone
- Damage from fallen branches or debris
- Gutters pulled loose in the wind
- New damp or leaks inside
If you live in an older home near Church of St Michael, the leak may come from a chimney, a valley or tired lead rather than the covering itself.
Questions to ask before you book
- Whether they hold professional indemnity and public liability insurance
- Their track record with similar roofs
- Which viewpoints they use to see the roof
- Do they have a CAA Flyer ID and Operator ID for drone work?
What happens if roof problems are left?
If a roofer needs to make the roof safe, take photos first if you can do so safely from ground level. That keeps a record of how it looked. Outbuildings and barns around Quarley are easy to forget, but a failed roof there can spoil what’s stored inside. It’s worth including them in a survey before a winter does the damage.
Simple, low roofs take less time to survey than tall or complicated ones, and the package matters as well. The price is always agreed first.

Wind, rain and roofs in Quarley
What can be done to an older roof may depend on listing or a conservation area. The council is the place to check, along with Historic England’s list, before anyone quotes for re-roofing. 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. Different coverings let water in at different points, which shapes where the search starts.
