Row Town questions
Do you carry out roof surveys in Row Town?
Yes. We survey roofs across London and the South East, and Row Town is part of that. Just phone 07833 053749 or email us and let us know about the property.
Does a conservation area affect roof work in Row Town?
Historic England’s list shows listed buildings, and the local council can tell you about 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.
How strong does the wind have to be for a storm claim?
Each policy has its own definition. Many treat gusts of about 55 mph as storm conditions, but your policy sets the actual test.
Do you act for me with my insurer?
No. We are not loss adjusters and don’t act for you with the insurer. We give you an independent report of the damage for you to send to your insurer.
Will you check the loft?
Yes, where the survey calls for it and there’s safe access. Inside, we look for damp, staining, gaps and sagging, as far as the space allows.
How do I book a survey in Row Town?
Simply ring 07833 053749 or use the contact form. After a few questions, we confirm the price and fix a day, weekday or weekend.
How long is the visit?
Expect it to take between one and two hours at a house, and longer if the damage is spread across a large roof. The written report follows by email, on the timescale of your package.
Storm damage roof reports for homes and businesses in Row Town
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. We survey ridges and hips, slate and tile slopes and gutters and fascias, and people most often book us about gutters pulled loose in the wind and flat roof edges peeled back.
Older cottages and houses around Row Town may have roofs with little or no underlay. Without a sound underlay, any gap in the coverings lets water straight through. Finding where it gets in, and whether it is old wear or new damage, decides what comes next. In the loft, damp battens or wet insulation are frequently the first clues.
The Standard Survey adds moisture detection, a structural check and a follow-up consultation. The Premium Survey adds thermal imaging, drone inspection where it applies, structural analysis and an in-person consultation.

Tips that help
There is plenty you can do without going near the roof. Here’s what helps most:
- Arrange temporary cover with a roofer if rain is getting in
- Read your policy wording on storm damage
- Take photos from the ground or a window, never by climbing
- Tell your insurer about the damage promptly
After the visit, we write up the report with photographs of each area of damage. It covers the damage, its likely cause and any older defects. Basic reports arrive within 48 hours, Standard reports in 24 to 48 hours and Premium reports the same day.
After a storm, look at the roof from the street or garden. With binoculars, you can frequently spot problems without climbing. Never climb onto the roof yourself.
For landlords and managing agents
Landlords, agents and building managers in Row Town and across Surrey can book any of our surveys. For a price for a let property or a block, ring 07833 053749 or use the contact form.
We also survey roofs for businesses and commercial landlords, including offices, shops and units. Bigger roofs take more time, and they’re priced for the size.
Checking the roof from ground level
You can learn a lot from the ground. Binoculars help you spot slipped slates or tiles, gaps along the ridge and a leaning stack. Please do not climb up for a closer look.
What you can’t do safely is get up close. Slates, tiles, flat roofs and rooflights can give way, and falls from height are serious. That part is for a survey.
Do you need a storm damage roof report in Row Town?
Falling trees and branches can damage roofs in high winds. The report shows what was hit and the damage caused, backed up with photos.
Most people get in touch when they’ve noticed one of these:
- Damaged ridges and hips
- Broken or displaced guttering
- Cowls or aerials dislodged in the wind
- Gaps where slates or tiles have gone
Trees in and around Woburn Park shed leaves that can end up in nearby gutters, and blocked gutters overflow and soak walls.
What to check before booking
- Which viewpoints they use to see the roof
- Their drone registration, if they fly one
- Which limits apply to the survey
- What insurance they carry
What happens on the day
The visit usually starts outside and finishes in the loft: outside views come first, then the roof space if there is safe access. All told, expect about 1–2 hours for most homes, depending on how much of the roof was hit. In a smaller place like Row Town, as anywhere, the forecast plays a part: the parts that need calm, dry weather are planned around it.
- We start with what you’ve seen and any temporary repairs.
- Inside, we look for signs of water in the loft and rooms below.
- We view the roof from safe positions.
- We record fresh damage and older defects.
- The report, with photos, is emailed to you.
Preparing for the visit
- Make sure we can get to the back of the property
- Have any questions written down, so nothing gets missed
- Dig out any old roof reports or invoices
