Storm damage roof report in Shepperton: what you get
Storms tend to find the weak points on a roof. Slates and tiles slip or blow off, ridge and hip tiles lift, flashings pull away and flat roof coverings can tear. 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. If you’ve noticed broken or displaced guttering and cowls or aerials dislodged in the wind, we can find out what’s behind it, on gutters and fascias, flat roofs and slate and tile slopes alike.
In older homes around places like Shepperton, the underlay may be old bitumen felt, or there may be none at all. Without a sound underlay, any gap in the coverings lets water straight through. Finding where it gets in, and whether it’s old wear or new damage, decides what comes next. In the loft, damp battens or wet insulation are often the first clues.
The written findings come by email, ready to forward to whoever needs them. Basic reports come within 48 hours, Standard within 24–48 hours and Premium on the day.

Roof by roof
Clay and concrete tiles
A missing tile lets rain reach the underlay. Each gap is recorded with a photo.
Lead flashings
Flashings can lift or pull away from walls and chimneys in strong winds. Loose or damaged flashings are photographed and noted.
The survey, step by step
The aim of the visit is simple: to see as much of the roof as can be seen safely and record it clearly. Notes and photos go into the written report. The visit typically takes roughly 1–2 hours for most homes, depending on how much of the roof was hit. Parking around Shepperton is typically easier than in a town centre, but mention lanes, gates or long drives. Low roofs on bungalows can often be seen well from the ground, and the loft shows the rest, while taller roofs may need other vantage points or the drone where applicable.
- 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.
- The roof is inspected from the ground, windows and the roof where it is safe.
- We record fresh damage and older defects.
- You receive the written report with photos.
Getting ready for the survey
- Let us know about parking near the property
- Keep pets out of the way during the survey
- If it is not your property yet, arrange access through the agent

Advice
Practical tips
You do not need to be a roofer to help. Here’s what helps most:
- Read your policy wording on storm damage
- Photograph the damage safely from below
- Write down when the storm hit and when you noticed damage
- Arrange temporary cover with a roofer if rain is getting in
The insurer might appoint a loss adjuster. Our report gives you an independent record alongside theirs.
Keep gutters and outlets clear so heavy rain can drain away. Blocked drainage can add water damage to wind damage.

What else we do in Shepperton
Shepperton: your questions answered
Does a conservation area affect roof work in Shepperton?
Your council is the best source, with Historic England’s list for listed buildings. A change of roofing material may need consent in either case, and councils can also use Article 4 directions.
Will you come out to Shepperton?
We do. A small place gets exactly the same survey as a big one, with the route planned beforehand.
Do you use drones?
Where it helps and the rules allow, yes. Our sub-250g drone is flown by a CAA-registered operator with a Flyer ID and Operator ID, and the airspace and weather are checked before every flight.
Do you act for me with my insurer?
No. We aren’t loss adjusters and don’t act for you with the insurer. We provide an independent record of the roof, which you can pass to your insurer.
Can you survey a shared roof?
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.
Will my insurer pay out if I get a storm damage report?
That is not something we can promise. The decision rests with your insurer and its policy. What we provide is an independent record of the damage.
How do I arrange a storm damage roof report in Shepperton?
Simply ring 07833 053749 or send us an email with the address. After a few questions, we confirm the price and fix a day.

Others book after an insurer has queried a claim. An independent report gives you another view of the roof. What happens next is up to the insurer.
It’s worth booking a survey if you’ve seen:
- Stains appearing after strong winds
- Damage from fallen branches or debris
- Ridge tiles that have come loose
- Gaps where slates or tiles have gone
If you live in an older home near Church of St Nicholas, water on an older roof tends to find its way in at the lead, the valleys or the chimney.
