About our storm damage roof report in Remenham

We inspect the roof from wherever it can safely be seen: the ground, windows and vantage points, the loft where there’s access, and the roof itself where that is safe. Every area of damage is photographed and described. We note any part we couldn’t see. The report, with photos, is yours to pass to your insurer. If you’ve noticed slipped or missing slates or tiles and damaged flat roof membrane, we can find out what’s behind it, on ridges and hips, flashings and flat roofs alike.

For a small place like Remenham, the inspection is the same as anywhere: we simply plan the journey and access ahead. Tell us where the water shows, when it appears and anything you’ve noticed outside, along with any repairs done before. If you have photos of the water coming in, they help as well.

The report doesn’t just list problems. It explains what we found, why it matters and what we recommend, so you can plan your next steps.

What a storm damage roof report looks like in Remenham

Older buildings in west Oxfordshire frequently have Cotswold stone slate roofs, and some Oxfordshire villages still have thatch. In this part of the South East, older roofs are mostly slate or clay tile and many newer ones concrete tile. The covering and its details give the first clues when tracing where water is coming from. With Greenlands about 1 mile north, Remenham sits in an area with a long building history. Older roofs in the wider area can hide decades of patch repairs, so the detail matters, and a listed home or one in a conservation area may need consent for changes of material.

For site and facilities teams at buildings such as Rupert House School, water through a big roof can travel a long way before it drips, so the search covers more than the obvious spot. If you live near a park such as Fawley Court and Temple Island, or anywhere with mature trees, autumn leaves can block gutters and valleys, and blocked gutters overflow and soak walls.

Remenham is about 5 miles west of Marlow, in Oxfordshire. Anywhere in Remenham, we can come and survey your property. Our area takes in places right across Oxfordshire, large and small. You can also see our page for Reading.

What we do, step by step

We photograph the roof as we go, so you can see in the report what we found and where. Close-ups come from the safest viewpoint available, including by drone where it is applicable and the weather allows. A typical visit takes about 1–2 hours at a house, and longer if the damage is spread across a large roof. Somewhere like Remenham needs a little journey planning: tell us about narrow lanes, gates, long drives and where we can park. On the day, we inspect whatever is safely visible, inside and out.

  1. First you give us the date of the storm and what you’ve noticed, inside and out.
  2. The roof is looked at from ground level, from windows and from the loft space where it’s safe.
  3. We photograph and record every area of damage we can see.
  4. We look at whether the damage fits storm damage, older wear or both.
  5. The findings are written up with photos for you to share with your insurer.

Getting ready for the survey

  • Dig out any old roof reports or invoices
  • Agree roof access with the managing agent if it is shared
  • Make sure the loft hatch can be reached

Booking a survey

Buyers should book once an offer has been accepted, so there is time to use the report before exchange. For any other survey, just phone 07833 053749 or drop us an email when you are ready.

What affects the price in Remenham

To price your survey, we check:

  • How complicated the roof is, with its valleys, chimneys and parapets
  • The type of building, from a house to a block or an office
  • Whether thermal imaging or a drone is needed
  • Height and safe access

Every price we give includes VAT, and the report isn’t charged as an extra. Our price is from £150, including VAT. Size, height and access decide where your roof falls.

What we need to know

You do not need to know any roofing terms. It is enough to tell us:

  • The kind of building and roof involved
  • Where water is showing inside, if it is
  • The property’s address and postcode
  • What made you get in touch

We confirm the price for your roof before you book, so you know the cost up front. Prices start from £150, including VAT. For a price for your roof, ring 07833 053749 or use the contact form.

Why get it checked now?

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. Older cottages and farmhouses around Remenham can have roof timbers that have been there a very long time, where water from a failed roof can cause rot if it is left.

Price depends partly on the package: from £150 for Basic, £250 for Standard and £400 for Premium, with VAT included. Size, height and access can affect the price too.

  • Plain-English reports with photos

Practical tips

Small things make a difference, both for the survey and for the roof itself. Our tips:

  • Photograph the damage safely from below
  • Record any water damage in rooms and the loft
  • Arrange temporary cover with a roofer if rain is getting in
  • Check your policy for how to report damage

If anything in the report is not clear, just ask us. The Standard Survey includes a follow-up consultation and the Premium Survey an in-person consultation.

Keep records of roof work and surveys. They can help show the roof was looked after.

Remenham questions

Is my home in Remenham listed or in a conservation area?

The council and Historic England’s list are the places to check. Either can affect what roof work is allowed, so it’s worth checking before planning any.

Do you cover smaller places like Remenham?

Yes, smaller places are covered as well as towns. We survey roofs across London and the South East. Just mention lanes, gates or anything else about the route as you book.

Will you fly a drone over my roof?

Where it is applicable and safe, yes. We fly a sub-250g drone and we’re a CAA-registered drone operator (Flyer ID and Operator ID). Drone inspection is part of the Drone Roof Survey and the Premium Survey, where it applies.

How long does the survey take?

It normally takes roughly 1–2 hours at a house, and longer if the damage is spread across a large roof. The report follows by email.

Can you survey a shared roof?

Yes, as long as access is agreed. Roofs over flats are often shared, so whoever owns or manages the building needs to agree access. We can only inspect what we’re given access to.

Can I challenge a declined storm claim?

Raise it with your insurer first. If it is not resolved, the Financial Ombudsman Service may be able to help. The Ombudsman asks about storm conditions, whether the damage is consistent with a storm and whether the storm was the main cause.

How are storm damage reports priced?

Our price is from £150, including VAT. Larger or more complex roofs are quoted for their size. It doesn’t include repair costs, so you’ll need a roofer’s quote for those.

When to book a survey in Remenham

Branches and trees often come down on roofs during storms. The report shows what was hit and the damage caused, backed up with photos.

Problems we come across often include:

  • Loose or torn flashings
  • Broken or displaced guttering
  • Gaps where slates or tiles have gone
  • Flat roof edges peeled back

Take an older house close to Church of St Nicholas: lead flashings, valleys and old chimneys are typical places for water to get in.

Choosing a roof surveyor

  • How soon the report will arrive
  • How they plan to inspect the roof safely
  • Whether VAT is added on top
  • What the report includes, and whether it has photographs
