Storm damage roof reports for homes and businesses in St George's Hill
If your roof has been damaged, stay safe first. Photograph the damage from ground level or a window, and never climb up. Emergency temporary protection, such as covering an opening, is a job for a roofer. We then record the damage in a report you can pass to your insurer. Keep receipts for any emergency work. Common reasons to book are slates and tiles blown off the roof and ridge tiles that have come loose, on flat roofs, ridges and hips and slate and tile slopes.
In a smaller place like St George's Hill, some roofs face open ground, so wind and driving rain find any weakness in ridges, verges and flashings. If a leak shows only when the wind is in a certain direction, that is a useful clue. It helps to know when and where the water appears. The gutters on the most exposed side can overflow too.
The Standard Survey adds moisture detection, a structural check and a follow-up consultation. The Premium Survey goes further, with thermal imaging, drone inspection where applicable, structural analysis and an in-person consultation.

St George's Hill: your questions answered
How do I find out if my home in St George's Hill is listed?
Check Historic England’s online list first, then ask the council about conservation areas and any Article 4 direction. It matters most if you are planning to re-roof in a different material.
Is St George's Hill in the area you cover?
Yes, St George's Hill is one of the places we work. The survey and report are the same in St George's Hill as anywhere else.
Will you fly a drone over my roof?
Yes, where applicable and safe. We’re a CAA-registered drone operator (Flyer ID and Operator ID), flying a sub-250g drone. Drone inspection is part of the Drone Roof Survey and the Premium Survey, where it applies.
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 for you to send to your insurer.
I live in a flat. Can you survey the roof?
Yes. Shared roofs just need a little more planning. Mention it when you contact us and we’ll plan the survey around it.
Is wear and tear covered by insurance?
Wear and tear is not usually covered. Our report gives an honest view of what’s recent damage and what’s older wear. The claim decision is your insurer’s.
What wind speed counts as a storm?
Each policy has its own definition. About 55 mph is a common figure in many policies, but your policy sets the actual test.
When you need someone else
In fairness, there are limits to any roof survey:
- A price for the repairs
- The work of a loss adjuster appointed by your insurer
- A decision on your insurance claim
If in doubt, ring 07833 053749 or drop us an email and we will suggest the right survey. What our survey covers.
Roofs we survey in St George's Hill
- Flat roofs
- Flashings
- Gutters and fascias
- Ridges and hips
- Chimney stacks
- Slate and tile slopes
Before and after the survey
Here are a few things we’d tell any owner, before and after a survey:
- Note the date and time you first saw the damage
- Photograph the damage safely from below
- Check your policy for how to report damage
- Hold on to fallen pieces of the roof where you can
For repair costs, ask a roofer to quote. The report gives them a clear list of the damage.
Keep the roof in good order between storms. Have loose slates, tiles and flashings seen to promptly.
How the survey works
We work from the outside in: first the slopes, edges and gutters from every safe viewpoint, then the loft space where it can be reached. All told, expect about one to two hours at a house, and longer if the damage is spread across a large roof. In a smaller place like St George's Hill, parking is seldom the issue; lanes, gates and long drives are worth mentioning. Low roofs on bungalows can often be seen well from the ground, and the loft shows the rest.
- 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 is access.
- The damage is recorded with photographs, area by area.
- The likely cause is recorded, along with any evidence of older wear.
- The findings are written up with photos for you to share with your insurer.
Preparing for the visit
- Keep pets inside or away from the areas we are looking at
- Check the loft hatch can be reached
- Make sure we can get to the back of the property

Storm damage roof reports around St George's Hill
In Surrey, older roofs are often handmade clay tile, with tile-hanging on many upper walls. Some old buildings in Surrey and Sussex have Horsham stone slab roofs. Each of these roof types has its own typical places for water to get in. About 2.2 miles south lies Byfleet Manor, a reminder of how long the area around St George's Hill has been built on. Older homes in the wider area often have features worth a closer look, such as lead valleys, tall stacks and roofs that have been patched over the years, and a listed home or one in a conservation area may need consent for changes of material.
The streets around a church like United Reform Church are often among the oldest in a place, and if your home is one of the older ones nearby, lead flashings, valleys and old chimneys are typical places for water to get in. For landlords with property near Weybridge station, a clear finding on where water gets in helps you brief a roofer straight away.

Why act early in St George's Hill
If the damage is partly wear and tear, it’s better to know. Our report gives an honest view of both, so there are no surprises later. Around St George's Hill, a leak in an older house can soak into timbers and plaster, which is far harder to put right than the roof fault itself.
