How a storm damage roof report works in Raynes Park

High winds normally affect the parts of a roof that are already exposed or loose. 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. Any older wear we can see is recorded as well. Typical surveys look at torn or lifted flat roof coverings and lifted or missing ridge and hip tiles, across slate and tile slopes, gutters and fascias and chimney stacks.

London’s Victorian and Edwardian roofs have often been repaired many times. Telling wear from a one-off event matters, because insurers typically exclude wear and tear. That’s as true in Raynes Park as anywhere in London. Photos and a written account give you something specific to show an insurer, a landlord or a roofer.

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.

Surveys for landlords and agents in Raynes Park

With a portfolio of properties, surveys can be booked for more than one address. To discuss a number of properties, phone 07833 053749 or email us with the addresses.

Roof problems in a rented home affect tenants as well as the building. A survey helps you spot issues early and plan the work around your tenants.

Prices for storm damage roof reports in Raynes Park

We confirm the exact price before booking. This is what makes a difference:

  • How tall the building is and how easy the roof is to see
  • The shape of the roof and its details
  • The package you choose: Basic, Standard or Premium
  • Extensions, dormers and garages with roofs of their own

A Basic Survey starts from £150, including VAT. The Standard Survey starts from £250 and the Premium Survey from £400. You will know the price for your survey before booking.

What we need to know

When you call or email, these details help:

  • The property’s address and postcode
  • What made you get in touch
  • The type of building and roof, like pitched or flat
  • Your timetable, like an exchange date

Surveys can be booked for weekdays, Saturdays or Sundays. To arrange a day that suits you, ring 07833 053749 or send us an email with the address and the days you’d prefer.

Why it’s worth a survey now in Raynes Park

A few slipped slates can soon lead to wet timbers. Acting quickly normally means less damage overall. In Raynes Park, as across London, an overflowing gutter soaks the wall below. A blocked outlet ignored for a winter or two can mean damp walls inside.

We offer three survey packages: the Basic Survey from £150, the Standard Survey from £250 and the Premium Survey from £400, all with VAT included. The price for your roof depends on its size, access and what you need to know.

DIY checks: what’s safe

A DIY look is useful, but it isn’t a survey. From the ground, valleys, flashings and the backs of chimneys are often out of sight.

If you have a loft with safe access, take a look inside. Take a torch and only step on boards or joists, checking for stains, damp wood or chinks of daylight.

Raynes Park roofs and the weather

Historic houses such as Southside House, about 0.9 miles north, show how far back building in the area around Raynes Park goes. Older roofs in the wider area can hide decades of patch repairs, so the detail matters. Alongside Victorian and Edwardian terraces, outer London has a great many interwar semis, frequently with hipped roofs of clay or concrete tiles. On a semi of that age, the small roofs over the bays, the hip tiles and any later dormer each need their own look. Different coverings let water in at different points, which shapes where the search starts.

The streets around a church such as St Saviour's Church are often among the oldest in a place, and if your home is one of the older ones nearby, lead flashings, valleys and old chimneys are typical places for water to get in. Trees in and around Cannon Hill Common shed leaves that can end up in nearby gutters, and an overflowing gutter soon means a wet wall. For businesses in and around places like Bentall Centre, a leak can close part of a shop or office, so finding the cause quickly matters.

Common questions in Raynes Park

Is my home in Raynes Park listed or in a conservation area?

The council and Historic England’s list are the places to check. It’s worth checking before planning roof work, as both can affect what’s allowed.

Is parking a problem for a survey in Raynes Park?

It can be, so it’s useful to let us know about permits, visitor bays or off-street space when booking. That way the visit can be planned around it.

Does your report mean my claim will be accepted?

We cannot say whether a claim will be paid. Insurers decide claims on their own policy wording. Our report gives you an independent record of the damage and its likely cause.

How are storm damage reports priced?

Our price is from £150, including VAT. Bigger roofs are quoted on size and access. It does not include repair costs, so you will need a roofer’s quote for those.

Do you cover Raynes Park for storm damage roof reports?

Yes, we do. Raynes Park is part of the area we cover, and the service is the same as everywhere else we work.

How long will you be at the property?

Time on site depends on the roof; most visits take about one to two hours at a house, and longer if the damage is spread across a large roof. The report is sent afterwards by email.

Does someone need to be in?

That depends on the survey. Inside the building and in the loft, we need someone to let us in.

How the survey works

You do not need to do much on the day. Point out anything you’ve noticed, such as stains, drips or loose pieces, and we’ll get on with the inspection. The survey itself takes between one and two hours for most houses, or half a day or so for a commercial building. In a London conversion, the way into the roof space is often from a communal landing or the top flat. Where that is the case, access needs agreeing with whoever controls that landing. Everything else is planned around the building, not the postcode.

  1. You tell us what happened and whether a roofer has made the roof safe.
  2. We check inside, including the loft where there’s access, for water damage.
  3. We view the roof from safe positions.
  4. Storm damage and older wear are recorded separately where we can.
  5. The report, with photos, is emailed to you.

Before the survey

  • Note where any stains or damp appear
  • Check the loft hatch can be reached
  • Keep pets out of the way during the survey
