Storm damage roof reports near Stonebridge

How a storm damage roof report works in Stonebridge

High winds usually affect the parts of a roof that are already exposed or loose. Slates and tiles slip or blow off, ridge and hip tiles lift, flashings pull away and flat roof coverings can tear. Falling branches can cause damage too. We record the damage on your roof and photograph each part. Any older wear we can see is recorded as well. Common reasons to book are flat roof edges peeled back and water coming in after the storm, on gutters and fascias, chimney stacks and flat roofs.

Many London homes are well over a century old and their roofs have been patched more than once. Telling wear from a one-off event matters, because insurers usually exclude wear and tear. A careful look in Stonebridge tells the two apart where the evidence allows. A written record with photographs helps you explain what was found to whoever deals with it next.

Findings are set out part by part, from the coverings down to the gutters. It records what’s sound as well as what isn’t.

Landlords, agents and block managers in Stonebridge

We also survey roofs for businesses and commercial landlords, including offices, shops and units. Larger roofs take longer, and they’re priced for the size.

We survey roofs for letting agents and landlords as well as householders. The report gives you a dated record of the roof, with photos.

What you can safely check 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.

What you can’t do safely is get up close. Slates, tiles, flat roofs and rooflights can give way, and a fall can be serious. That part is for a survey, using safe viewpoints and a drone where applicable.

What we can’t see

A survey is a close look at the roof, but it can’t do everything. Its limits include:

  • A price for the repairs
  • What’s beneath slates, tiles or membranes
  • Acting for you with the insurer

If you are not sure which survey you need, call 07833 053749 or drop us an email and we will give you a straight answer before you book. The full list of what we check.

Your questions about storm damage roof reports in Stonebridge

Will parking be an issue for a roof survey in Stonebridge?

It rarely stops a survey, but it is worth planning. Tell us what parking is available nearby, and the visit is planned around it.

Do you carry out roof surveys in Stonebridge?

Yes. We work right across London and South East England, and Stonebridge is part of that. You can phone 07833 053749 or drop us an email with the address and a few details, and we’ll talk through which survey suits.

What’s the best way to book?

Just call 07833 053749 or email us with the address. After a few questions, we confirm the price and fix a day, weekday or weekend.

How experienced are you?

Over 5,000 surveys so far, over more than 20 years.

Do you test for asbestos?

No. Asbestos surveys and testing aren’t part of what we do. If we see materials that could contain asbestos, such as cement roof sheets or soffits on buildings from before 2000, we flag them, and recommend a specialist asbestos surveyor checks them before they’re disturbed.

Should I go up on the roof to take photos?

Safely, from the ground or a window. Never climb onto a roof after a storm. With binoculars, you can see a lot from ground level and we will inspect the rest from safe positions.

How long is the visit?

Time on site depends on the roof, but most surveys take an hour or two at a typical home, while a commercial roof takes nearer three to four hours. The report is sent afterwards by email.

What happens on the day

There isn’t much for you to do on the day. Show us any stains, drips or problem areas you know about, and we will take it from there. The survey itself takes between one and two hours for most homes, depending on how much of the roof was hit. In Stonebridge, visits are available on weekdays and at weekends. It helps if you can point us to a visitor permit or a nearby bay. Upstairs rooms at the back are useful too, as they often give the best view of a rear addition.

  1. We note the date of the storm and the damage you’ve seen.
  2. The roof is inspected from safe positions.
  3. We record and photograph the damage.
  4. We note the likely cause and any signs of older wear.
  5. You get a written report to pass to your insurer.

Getting ready for the survey

  • Have keys ready for side gates, garages or roof access doors
  • Make a note of anything you’d like us to look at
  • Let us know about parking before the day

Why it’s worth a survey now in Stonebridge

Many policies expect damage to be reported promptly. Check the wording and tell your insurer as soon as you can. An independent report can follow. Blocked gutters and hoppers on London houses overflow and soak brickwork. A small blockage left for a few winters becomes a damp problem.

Bigger, taller and commercial roofs take more time to survey, so they’re priced to match. You’ll know the figure before booking.

Storm damage roof reports around Stonebridge

The wider area around Stonebridge has a long history of building, with Pitzhanger Manor about 2.8 miles south-west. Older roofs in the wider area can hide decades of patch repairs, so the detail matters, and any change of roofing material on a listed home needs checking with the council first. Alongside Victorian and Edwardian terraces, outer London has a great many interwar semis, often with hipped roofs of clay or concrete tiles. If your home in Stonebridge 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.

If you own a rental within reach of Harlesden station, finding the cause of a leak fast keeps a tenant’s home dry and the work focused. Homes near green spaces such as St. Raphael's Edible Garden can get more leaves in their gutters in autumn, and blocked gutters overflow and soak walls. If you live in an older home near Saint Michael and All Angels, the leak may come from a chimney, a valley or tired lead rather than the covering itself.
