Storm damage roof report in Shooter's Hill
Our storm damage report starts from £150. It’s a report with photographs, sent by email. It doesn’t price the repairs, so ask a roofer to quote for the work. Your insurer may also send its own loss adjuster. What you get is an independent record of the damage and what seems to have caused it. If you are worried about flashings pulled away from walls or stacks and gaps where slates or tiles have gone, we can find out what’s behind it, on flashings, ridges and hips and chimney stacks alike.
In converted houses and blocks across London, water from a roof can run a long way before it shows on a ceiling, sometimes in a different flat from the one below the defect. Tracing it back matters, both for dealing with the cause and for any insurance claim. We look at what we’re given access to in Shooter's Hill, inside and out. It is useful to know when the water appears and in what weather.
Where we cannot see part of the roof, the report says so. You’ll know exactly what was inspected and what wasn’t, and what we’d suggest next.

Landlord and commercial surveys in Shooter's Hill
For blocks of flats, a roof survey helps managing agents and residents’ management companies plan ahead. Recommendations are set out by urgency where it matters, which helps when budgeting.
Surveys can also be booked by buyers’ agents acting for a client. The report is emailed, so it can go straight to your client, photos included.
Tips from our surveys
These tips come from what we see on roofs every week, before and after a survey:
- Keep invoices for temporary repairs
- Don’t go onto the roof to take pictures
- Photograph damage inside the house too
- Hold on to fallen pieces of the roof where you can
You’ll need a roofer’s quote for the repairs. They can use our report to see what needs doing.
A well-maintained roof stands up to storms better. Have loose slates, tiles and flashings seen to promptly.
Prices for storm damage roof reports in Shooter's Hill
Several things affect the price of a survey:
- Commercial roofs and larger buildings
- Roof area
- The height of the building and how the roof can be seen safely
- Features like valleys, chimneys, dormers and parapets
A Basic Survey starts from £150, with VAT included. Standard is from £250 and Premium from £400, both with VAT included. We confirm the price for the job before booking.
What we need to know
You do not need to know any roofing terms. Just tell us:
- Photos of the roof, taken safely from the ground or a window
- Where any leaks, stains or damp patches show inside
- Your postcode, so we can check access and travel
- The kind of building and roof involved
Our price is from £150, including VAT. What you pay depends on the roof’s size, access and the package, and you can call 07833 053749 or use the contact form to find out.
How it works
After the inspection, everything we found is written up as a written report with photos, emailed to you. On timing, it typically takes about 1–2 hours for most homes, depending on how much of the roof was hit. For a visit in Shooter's Hill, parking and access are the things to plan: let us know about parking, the floor the property is on, any shared entrance and loft access. On the day, the roof is looked at from ground level, from windows, from inside the loft space and from the roof where it’s safe.
- First we go through when the storm hit and what you’ve noticed.
- The roof is inspected from safe positions.
- We record and photograph the damage.
- We note the likely cause and any signs of older wear.
- We send you the report by email for your insurer.
Getting ready for the survey
- Check the loft hatch can be reached
- Point out any leaks or damp patches
- Mention any parking restrictions on your street

Common questions in Shooter's Hill
Do you cover Shooter's Hill?
We do. Every survey there gets the same written report with photographs, and visits run on weekdays and weekends.
Will parking be an issue for a roof survey in Shooter's Hill?
It rarely stops a survey, but it is worth planning. Tell us what parking is available nearby, and the visit is planned around it.
Can I check the roof after a storm?
Stay off the roof. Take photos from the ground or from windows. Note the date and time, and photograph any damage inside.
How much is a storm damage roof report?
Prices start from £150, including VAT. Bigger roofs are quoted on size and access. Repair costs are not included, so ask a roofer to quote.
What’s the best way to book?
To arrange a survey, call 07833 053749 or drop us an email and let us know the address and what you’d like to know. We will confirm the price and agree a day with you.
Can you tell me if my claim will be paid?
The decision is your insurer’s, not ours. We record the damage, with photos and the likely cause, which you can pass to your insurer.
Do I need to be at home?
Not necessarily. An outside-only look can be arranged beforehand, but anything inside needs someone there to give access.
Why act early in Shooter's Hill
A few slipped slates can soon lead to wet timbers. Getting it recorded and repaired sooner is usually better. In a London terrace or conversion, a roof defect rarely stays your problem alone: a blocked parapet gutter or slipped slate can let water into the flat below or the house next door. Finding it early keeps the work smaller.

Should I look at the roof myself first?
Fresh stains on ceilings or walls after rain are worth noting. Take a photo and write down when you saw it, which helps when we look at the roof.
Inside, the loft is a good place to look, with care. Use a torch and stay on the joists or boards, checking for stains, damp wood or chinks of daylight.
Storm damage roof reports in Shooter's Hill: local notes
About 1.7 miles south-west lies Eltham Palace, a reminder of how long the area around Shooter's Hill has been built on. Older homes in the wider area often have features worth a closer look, like lead valleys, tall stacks and roofs that have been patched over the years, and any change of roofing material on a listed home needs checking with the council first. Outer London has a good many Victorian and Edwardian terraces with slate roofs, but also a great many interwar semis, often with hipped roofs in clay or concrete tiles. If your home in Shooter's Hill is one of them, bay roofs, hips and later dormers each have their own details. The covering and its details give the first clues when tracing where water is coming from.
Anyone responsible for a site like Shooters Hill Sixth Form College will know that a leak through a large roof is often found some distance from where the water shows inside. If you live in an older home near Christ Church, old mortar, worn lead and slipped slates are the usual suspects when water gets in. For businesses in and around places such as Gallions Reach Shopping Park, a leak can close part of a shop or office, so finding the cause quickly matters.
