Common roof problems in Roe Green
Some people book because a claim has been questioned. An independent report gives you another view of the roof. What happens next is up to the insurer.
Typical things we’re asked to look at include:
- Damaged pots on the stack
- Torn or lifted flat roof coverings
- Lifted or missing ridge and hip tiles
- Broken or displaced guttering
If your house is among the older ones in the streets near Church of All Saints, leaks on older roofs often start at lead flashings, valleys or around old chimney stacks.
Before you book any roof surveyor
- How much experience they have with roofs like yours
- Their report turnaround times
- What the report includes, and whether it has photographs
- Whether the inside of the roof is included
Storm damage roof report in Roe Green
Our storm damage report gives you an independent, written record of how a storm has affected your roof. It sets out what is damaged, with photographs, and what we think the likely cause is. It’s yours to pass to your insurer. The decision on any claim rests with your insurer and its policy wording. We are not loss adjusters, and we can’t tell you whether a claim will succeed. If you’ve noticed stains appearing after strong winds and lifted or missing ridge and hip tiles, a survey will tell you what’s going on, on chimney stacks, flat roofs and gutters and fascias alike.
For a small place like Roe Green, the inspection is the same as anywhere: we simply plan the journey and access ahead. It is useful to know where the water appears, in what weather, and what you’ve seen outside, plus any earlier repairs. If you have photos of the water coming in, they help as well.
It isn’t only a list of defects. It explains what we found, why it matters and what we recommend.

Roe Green roofs and the weather
Slate and clay tile are the usual coverings on older South East houses, with concrete tiles on many later estates, and flat-roofed additions turn up almost everywhere. Where water gets in depends a good deal on what the roof is made of and how it’s detailed. There are about 500,000 buildings on England’s list of listed buildings, and around 10,000 conservation areas. Listed building consent is needed for changes that affect a listed building’s special interest, and conservation areas can limit changes of roofing material, so the council is the place to ask.
Landlords with a home close to Ashwell & Morden station may find that tracing a leak quickly matters when a tenant is living with it. If you look after a building such as Sandon Junior Mixed and Infant School, on a building that size, finding the source of a drip means looking well beyond the stain.

Why it is worth a survey now in Roe Green
With an independent report, you have something specific to show your insurer. It records the damage and what seems to have caused it, so you’re not relying only on your own photos. Older cottages and farmhouses around Roe Green can have roof timbers that have been there a very long time, and water through a failed covering can rot timber if it is left.
Our price is from £150, including VAT. What you pay depends on how big and how high the roof is, how it can safely be seen and the package you choose.

How the survey works
After the inspection, everything we found is written up as a written report with photos. As for time on site, most surveys take an hour or two for most houses, and longer for a large or complex roof. Rural addresses near Roe Green can be hard to find from a postcode alone, so a few directions are welcome. After that, the survey runs as it would anywhere.
- You tell us what happened and whether a roofer has made the roof safe.
- Inside, we look for signs of water in the loft and rooms below.
- We view the roof from safe positions.
- Storm damage and older wear are recorded separately where we can.
- You receive the written report with photos.
Preparing for the visit
- Mention any parking restrictions on your street
- Make sure the loft hatch can be reached
- Agree roof access with the managing agent if it is shared

Roe Green: your questions answered
Do you cover Roe Green?
Yes, Roe Green is one of the places we work. Every survey there gets the same written report with photos.
Is my home in Roe Green listed or in a conservation area?
Check Historic England’s online list first, then ask the council about conservation areas and any Article 4 direction. The answer matters most when a change of material is on the cards.
What if my insurer declines the claim?
Start by complaining to the insurer. If it is not resolved, the Financial Ombudsman Service may be able to help. The Ombudsman looks at whether there were storm conditions, whether the damage fits a storm and whether the storm was the main cause.
Do you survey on Saturdays and Sundays?
Surveys can be booked for any day of the week: weekdays, Saturdays and Sundays. Just tell us the days that suit you.
How do I book a survey in Roe Green?
Simply ring 07833 053749 or email us. We’ll ask a few questions, confirm the price and agree a date.
Do you act for me with my insurer?
No. Our report is an independent record for you to use. Your insurer may appoint its own loss adjuster.
Does this replace a RICS home survey?
No. This is a survey of the roof only, and it isn’t a RICS Level 2 or Level 3 survey. Many buyers have both.
Different roofs, different checks
Clay and concrete tiles
Strong gusts can lift and break tiles. The report shows each damaged area.
