About our storm damage roof report in Skittle Green
If your roof has been damaged, stay safe first. Photograph the damage from ground level 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. We’re frequently asked to look into flat roof edges peeled back and ridge tiles that have come loose, on gutters and fascias, flat roofs and ridges and hips.
Being in a small place like Skittle Green makes no difference to how a leak or storm damage is looked at: we simply plan the journey and access ahead. Let us know where the water shows, when it appears and anything you’ve noticed outside, along with any repairs done before. Photos of the stain and of the roof from outside are helpful too.
Most points in the report come with a picture, because a photo of a cracked flashing says more than a paragraph. Anything out of sight on the day is listed as such.

How the survey works
It is useful to start with what’s prompted the survey: a purchase, a leak, a storm, new work or simply peace of mind. That way we can focus on what matters to you. Most visits take about 1–2 hours for most homes, depending on how much of the roof was hit. Older roofs in small places like Skittle Green can have low, tight loft spaces, so it helps to know whether there’s a loft hatch and how easy it is to reach. Only areas that can be reached safely are inspected.
- We start with what you’ve seen and any temporary repairs.
- We check inside, including the loft where there is access, for water damage.
- The roof is inspected from ground level, windows and the roof where it is safe.
- Storm damage and older wear are recorded separately where we can.
- The report, with photos, is emailed to you.
Getting ready for the survey
- If you’re buying, let the agent know when we’re coming
- Clear the way to the loft hatch
- For flats, make sure roof access has been agreed
Getting a price
Most bookings start with a short call: call 07833 053749 or use the contact form and we will ask a few questions about the roof. You’ll have a price before anything is arranged.

Common roof problems in Skittle Green
Landlords and managing agents book reports to keep a record for owners and insurers. It helps when explaining damage to a building owner or insurer.
Here are some of the things we see frequently:
- Damaged gutters and fascias
- Lead lifted at abutments
- Loose or broken chimney pots and cowls
- Stains appearing after strong winds
If you look after a building like Princes Risborough School, tracing a leak on a big roof starts with where the water appears and works back.

Wind, rain and roofs in Skittle Green
An older home may be listed, or stand in a conservation area. Historic England’s list shows listed buildings, and the council can say whether a street is in a conservation area. In either case, a change of roofing material may need consent. A number of Buckinghamshire villages keep thatched roofs on their older buildings. Slate and clay tile are the usual coverings on older South East houses, with concrete tiles on many later estates. Different coverings let water in at different points, which shapes where the search starts.
If you live in an older home near Church of the Holy Trinity, lead flashings, valleys and old chimneys are typical places for water to get in. If you let a flat or house near Princes Risborough station, finding the cause of a leak fast keeps a tenant’s home dry and the work focused.
