About our storm damage roof report in Stone Street
After a storm, it is useful to have a clear record of what happened to your roof. Our report shows the damage in photos and says whether it looks like storm damage, wear and tear, or a mix. We aren’t loss adjusters, and we can’t say whether a claim will be paid. What we give you is an independent record of the roof. If you’ve noticed flashings pulled away from walls or stacks and loose or broken chimney pots and cowls, we can find out what’s behind it, whatever the roof.
For a small place like Stone Street, the inspection is the same as anywhere: the journey and access are just planned ahead of time. It helps to know where the water appears, in what weather, and what you’ve seen outside, along with any repairs done before. Photos of the stain and of the roof from outside are helpful too.
Every survey ends with a written report, with photos, sent by email. It sets out the condition of the roof, any defects and our written recommendations.

What this survey can’t tell you
Our findings are based on what we can see safely on the day, so there are some things a survey can’t cover:
- Repair costs or quotes for the work
- Areas we cannot see safely
- Your insurer’s view of the claim
Not sure which survey suits your roof? You can ring 07833 053749 or email us and we will tell you before you book. What a survey covers and doesn’t.
What we look at
- Flashings
- Flat roofs
- Slate and tile slopes
- Chimney stacks
- Gutters and fascias
- Ridges and hips
What we’re asked to look at in Stone Street
Roofs that were already worn are more likely to suffer in a storm. Nail fatigue, eroded ridge mortar and tired flashings can all fail in high winds. Our report notes both the storm damage and any older wear.
We are often asked to look at:
- Flashings pulled away from walls or stacks
- Loose or broken chimney pots and cowls
- Roofs hit by falling trees
- Gutters pulled loose in the wind
For site and facilities teams at buildings like St Lawrence Church of England Primary School, a leak through a large roof is often found some distance from where the water shows inside.
Before you book any roof surveyor
- Whether you can ask questions once you have the report
- Will they check the loft as well as the outside?
- When you will get the report
- If they fly a drone, whether they hold a CAA Flyer ID and Operator ID
What a survey costs
When we price a survey, we consider:
- If the survey needs thermal imaging or a drone
- The shape of the roof and its details
- How many separate roofs there are, such as extensions, dormers and garages
- Which survey package you book
Simple, low roofs take less time to survey than tall or complicated ones, and the package matters as well. We’ll give you the figure before anything is booked.
What we need to know
What helps most when you contact us:
- Anything about access we should know
- The style of property, from a terrace to a block
- Pictures of the roof from a safe spot, if you have them
- When you need the report by
If you have photos of the roof, send them over. Pictures from the ground or a window are fine, and please do not climb up for a closer look. To get started, call 07833 053749 or email us.
How it works
It’s 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. The visit usually takes an hour or two on an ordinary house, and longer for a large or complex roof. Somewhere like Stone Street needs a little journey planning: let us know about narrow lanes, gates, long drives and where we can park. The roof is looked at from the ground, from windows, from the loft where there is safe access and from the roof where it is 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.
Before the survey
- Keep pets inside or away from the areas we are looking at
- Let us know about any leaks, stains or damp patches you know of
- Dig out any old roof reports or invoices

Useful tips for Stone Street property owners
A little preparation and a few simple habits help, both for the survey and for the roof itself. Some pointers:
- Keep a note of the date of the storm
- Do not go onto the roof to take pictures
- Keep receipts for any emergency work
- Report the damage to your insurer as soon as you can
After the visit, we write up the report with photos of each area of damage. It sets out what is damaged, the likely cause and any signs of older wear. Turnaround is within 48 hours for Basic, 24 to 48 hours for Standard and the same day for Premium.
Clear gutters and outlets before the stormy months. Blocked drainage can add water damage to wind damage.
What a storm damage roof report looks like in Stone Street
Across Kent, older roofs are often handmade clay or peg tiles, and tile-hanging on upper walls is a familiar sight. The county’s older buildings also include oast houses and timber-framed Wealden hall houses. The covering and its details give the first clues when tracing where water is coming from. With Ightham Mote about 1.1 miles south-east, Stone Street sits in an area with a long building history. If your house is among the older ones, expect a mix of original materials and later repairs on the roof.
Take an older house close to St Lawrence: leaks on older roofs frequently start at lead flashings, valleys or around old chimney stacks. If you let a flat or house near Kemsing station, tracing a leak quickly matters when a tenant is living with it.
Stone Street is about 3 miles east of Sevenoaks, in Kent. If you’re in Stone Street, booking works exactly as it does anywhere else: a call or an email, a price, then a date. We cover towns and villages across Kent, from the larger towns to small villages. You can also see our page for Maidstone.

Should I look at the roof myself first?
Keep a simple record: dates of leaks, photos from the ground and any work done on the roof. Send it with your enquiry, as it helps us focus the survey.
Inside, the loft is a good place to look, with care. Take a torch and only step on boards or joists, and look for staining, damp timber or daylight coming through.

How much is a storm damage roof report?

Emergency cover over a damaged roof should be arranged with a roofer. If it is safe, photograph the damage before it’s covered. Keep receipts for any emergency work.

That is not something we can promise. Insurers decide claims on their own policy wording. Our report gives you an independent record of the damage and its likely cause.
