Why it is worth a survey now in South Harewood

Damage left open lets in more rain. That can add to the damage and make it harder to separate from the storm. A roofer should deal with emergency protection quickly. Where a roof is exposed, as many are in small places like South Harewood, driving rain gets into any weakness, and damp in older walls is slow to dry out.

Price depends partly on the package: Basic from £150, Standard from £250 or Premium from £400, all inc. VAT. Size, height and access can affect the price too.

Why us?

  • More than 20 years surveying roofs
  • We hold a CAA Flyer ID and Operator ID
  • Every finding written up with photos
  • Thermal imaging and drones used where they help

Storm damage roof report in South Harewood: what you get

Each roof is looked at from the safest viewpoints available: the ground, windows and vantage points, the loft where there’s access, and the roof itself where that is safe. We photograph and describe each area of damage. We note any part we couldn’t see. You get a written report with photos to give to your insurer. We’re often asked to look into damaged gutters and fascias and water coming in after the storm, across chimney stacks, slate and tile slopes and gutters and fascias.

For a small place like South Harewood, the inspection is the same as anywhere: we simply plan the journey and access ahead. It helps to know where the water appears, in what weather, and what you’ve seen outside, along with any repairs done before. Photographs of the stain and of the roof from outside are helpful too.

Pictures do a lot of the work in our reports, so you can see each defect rather than just read about it. Anything out of sight on the day is listed as such.

Tips from our surveys

These tips come from what we see on roofs every week:

  • Get a roofer to make the roof safe if needed
  • Keep receipts for any emergency work
  • Photograph damage inside the house too
  • Photograph the damage safely from below

Questions about the findings are always welcome. The Standard Survey includes a follow-up consultation and the Premium Survey an in-person consultation.

Keep records of roof work and surveys. They can help show the roof was looked after.

What a storm damage roof report looks like in South Harewood

What can be done to an older roof may depend on listing or a conservation area. Your council and Historic England’s list will tell you where you stand. A number of Hampshire villages keep thatched roofs on their older buildings. In this part of the South East, older roofs are mostly slate or clay tile and many newer ones concrete tile. Different coverings let water in at different points, which shapes where the search starts.

Anyone responsible for a site like Wherwell Primary School will know that tracing a leak on a big roof starts with where the water appears and works back.

Common roof problems in South Harewood

Strong winds lift loose or poorly fixed slates and tiles, ridge pieces and flashings. Rain can then blow in where slates or tiles have gone. People typically call us after a storm, once they’ve noticed damage or a leak.

Problems we come across often include:

  • Slates and tiles blown off the roof
  • Stains appearing after strong winds
  • Cowls or aerials dislodged in the wind
  • Roofs hit by falling trees

Landlords with a home close to Andover station may find that tracing a leak quickly matters when a tenant is living with it.

Before booking any roof surveyor

  • If they fly a drone, whether they hold a CAA Flyer ID and Operator ID
  • What the survey will not cover
  • Whether the loft space is looked at, where there is one
  • How they’ll see the roof: from ground level, the loft, the roof or by drone

What a roof survey includes

What we do, step by step

Where it is relevant and can be reached safely, the roof space is checked as well as the outside. In the loft, the signs we look for are staining, damp, daylight and sagging. All in, the survey usually takes about one to two hours at a typical home, or half a day or so for a commercial building. Cottages and farmhouses around South Harewood often have roofs at several levels, with lean-tos and outbuildings attached. Each part is looked at from wherever it can be seen safely, and anything we can’t see is noted.

  1. We start with what you’ve seen and any temporary repairs.
  2. Inside, we look for signs of water in the loft and rooms below.
  3. The roof is inspected from ground level, windows and the roof where it is safe.
  4. We record fresh damage and older defects.
  5. You receive the written report with photos.

Getting ready for the survey

  • Have any questions written down, so nothing gets missed
  • Let us know about parking before the day
  • Move anything stored under the loft hatch

Should I look at the roof myself first?

Look up at the roof after a storm, from ground level: pieces of tile or slate on the ground, a gap in the ridge or a lifted flashing are all worth noting. Don’t go up yourself.

Keep a simple record: dates of leaks, photos from the ground and any work done on the roof. Share it with us as you book, as it helps us focus the survey.

How long will you be at the property?

Where it helps and the rules allow, yes. We hold a CAA Flyer ID and Operator ID and fly a drone under 250g, and every flight depends on the airspace and the weather.
