Shepperton Green Storm Damage Roof Report
An independent record of roof damage after a storm for Shepperton Green, from an experienced roof surveyor. You get a clear written report with photos.
- Flashings pulled away from walls or stacks
- Flat roof edges peeled back
- Holes or cracks caused by debris
Checking the roof from ground level
A lot can be seen from ground level. 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.
The one thing to avoid is getting up close. Slates, tiles, flat roofs and rooflights can give way, and a fall can be serious. That part is for a survey.
About our storm damage roof report in Shepperton Green
After a storm, safety comes first. Photograph the damage from the ground or a window, and never climb up. If water is coming in, a roofer can put temporary protection in place. We then record the damage in a report you can pass to your insurer. Keep receipts for any emergency work. If you’re worried about flashings pulled away from walls or stacks and stains appearing after strong winds, we can find out what’s behind it, on flat roofs, gutters and fascias and ridges and hips alike.
Older cottages and houses around Shepperton Green may have roofs with little or no underlay. Without a sound underlay, any gap in the coverings lets water straight through. Whether it is long-term wear or recent damage makes a difference to what happens next. Wet battens and insulation in the loft are frequently the first clue.
Most points in the report come with a picture, because a photo of a cracked flashing says more than a paragraph. If something couldn’t be seen safely, the report is clear about it.

Wind, rain and roofs in Shepperton Green
With Botleys Mansion about 3.6 miles south-west, Shepperton Green sits in an area with a long building history. If yours is one of the older homes, expect a mix of original materials and later repairs on the roof. Older houses across Surrey often have handmade clay tiles, and many have tile-hanging. Horsham stone slab roofs survive on some old buildings in Surrey. Knowing the roof type helps narrow down where water may be getting in.
Trees in and around Penton Park shed leaves that can end up in nearby gutters, and blocked gutters overflow and soak walls. Anyone responsible for a site like Saxon Primary School will know that a leak through a large roof is frequently found some distance from where the water shows inside. For landlords with property near Shepperton station, a clear finding on where water gets in helps you brief a roofer right away.

Useful tips for Shepperton Green property owners
Over many surveys, some simple habits stand out:
- Report the damage to your insurer as soon as you can
- Read your policy wording on storm damage
- Keep fallen slates or tiles as evidence if safe
- Get a roofer to make the roof safe if needed
The insurer might appoint a loss adjuster. You will have your own independent record to refer to.
Have overhanging branches looked at by a tree surgeon. They can damage the roof in high winds.
Shepperton Green: your questions answered
Is Shepperton Green within the area you cover?
Yes, we do. Our area covers London and the South East, and smaller places are part of that. The journey is planned ahead, so it helps to know about access.
How do I find out if my home in Shepperton Green is listed?
For listing, use Historic England’s list; for conservation areas, ask the council. It matters most if you’re planning to re-roof in a different material.
Do you need to get into the loft?
Where it’s relevant to the survey and there’s safe access, yes. Please clear anything stored under the hatch.
Are you loss adjusters?
No. We write an independent report, and you decide how to use it. The insurer may send a loss adjuster of its own.
How are storm damage reports priced?
Prices start from £150, including VAT. Larger or more complex roofs are quoted for their size. Repair costs aren’t included, so ask a roofer to quote.
Do you survey roofs on blocks of flats?
Yes, once whoever controls the roof agrees access. On a shared roof we can only inspect the parts we are allowed to reach, and the report makes that clear.
What do I do if water is coming in?
A roofer should handle temporary protection. If it is safe, take photos before it goes on. We can record the damage in our report.
How the survey works
When we arrive, we begin with a quick chat about the roof and anything that’s worrying you. We then inspect everything that can be seen safely, from the ground, from windows, in the roof space and by drone where it applies. The survey usually takes between one and two hours on an ordinary house, and about three to four hours for a commercial roof. A visit to a smaller place like Shepperton Green is no different on the day: outside, inside and from any safe vantage point, in that order. It’s useful to show us anything you’ve already noticed.
- First you give us the date of the storm and what you’ve noticed, inside and out.
- We view the roof from wherever it can safely be seen, including the loft where there’s access.
- The damage is recorded with photographs, area by area.
- We note the likely cause, including any signs of wear that were there before the storm.
- You get a written report you can pass to your insurer.
Before we arrive
- Move anything stored under the loft hatch
- Agree roof access with the managing agent if it is shared
- Unlock side gates and any roof access doors

Different roofs, different checks
Flat roof coverings
On flat roofs, storms can lift edges and tear membranes. We record any damage and where it is.
Lead flashings
Lifted flashings let rain run behind them into the roof. The report records the flashing and any damp inside.
Why act early in Shepperton Green
Many policies expect damage to be reported promptly. Let your insurer know early, and check what your policy asks for. Our report can then add a clear record. With lower homes, common in places like Shepperton Green, there is little between a roof defect and the ceiling, so water can show inside quickly once it gets past the covering. Catching the cause first saves redecorating as well.
Bigger, taller and commercial roofs take more time to survey, so the price reflects that. You will know the figure before booking.
