About our storm damage roof report in Stonehill
Storms tend to find the weak points on a roof. Typical damage includes lost slates and tiles, lifted ridges, loose flashings and torn flat roof coverings. 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. We survey gutters and fascias, chimney stacks and flat roofs, and people most often book us about damage from fallen branches or debris and damaged gutters and fascias.
Many homes in small places like Stonehill face open ground, so storms hit ridges, verges and chimneys hard. Once water gets into older walls, it takes a long time to dry, which makes finding the cause quickly worthwhile. A written record also helps if you need to explain it to anyone else.
Where we cannot see part of the roof, the report says so. You’ll know exactly what was inspected and what wasn’t.

Common questions in Stonehill
How do I find out if my home in Stonehill is listed?
Your council is the best source, with Historic England’s list for listed buildings. A change of roofing material may need consent in either case, and councils can also use Article 4 directions.
Is Stonehill in the area you cover?
Yes. Our area covers London and South East England, and Stonehill is part of that. Just call 07833 053749 or drop us an email and let us know about the property, and we’ll talk through which survey suits.
What if my insurer declines the claim?
Complain to your insurer first. After that, the Financial Ombudsman Service may be able to look at it. An independent report can add to your evidence, but we can’t say how it will turn out.
How experienced are you?
We have more than 20 years’ experience and have completed over 5,000 surveys across London and the South East.
Will you go up on the roof?
Not unless it’s safe. Safe viewpoints, the roof space and a drone where it applies cover most of what’s needed, and anything out of sight is recorded in the report.
What does a storm damage report cost?
A storm damage report starts from £150. Larger roofs are quoted for their size. Repair costs are not part of the report.
Does this replace a RICS home survey?
No. It is a specialist roof survey, not a RICS Level 2 or Level 3 building survey. It focuses on the roof, so it sits alongside a building survey rather than replacing it.
What else we do in Stonehill
What we look for on each type of roof
Flat roof coverings
Wind can lift the edges of flat roof coverings or tear them. Damage is photographed and described.
Ridge and hip tiles
A lifted ridge tile can let water into the roof. Each one is recorded with photos.
Practical tips
From years of surveys, a few habits stand out:
- Keep invoices for temporary repairs
- Photograph the damage safely from below
- Hold on to fallen pieces of the roof where you can
- Record any water damage in rooms and the loft
If anything in the report isn’t clear, just ask us. The Standard Survey includes a follow-up consultation and the Premium Survey an in-person consultation.
Clear gutters and outlets before the stormy months. Overflowing gutters can make storm damage worse.
What we do, step by step
Once we’ve finished looking, we write up our findings in a report with photos, sent to you by email. On timing, it typically takes roughly 1–2 hours at a house, and longer if the damage is spread across a large roof. Somewhere like Stonehill needs a little journey planning: let us know about narrow lanes, gates, long drives and where we can park. On the day, we inspect whatever is safely visible, inside and out.
- We start with what you’ve seen and any temporary repairs.
- We check inside, including the loft where there is access, for water damage.
- We view the roof from safe positions.
- We record fresh damage and older defects.
- The report, with photos, is emailed to you.
Before the survey
- Point out any leaks or damp patches
- Let us know where we can park nearby
- Keep pets out of the way during the survey
How to book
Surveys can be booked for weekdays, Saturdays or Sundays. To arrange a day that suits you, ring 07833 053749 or email us with the address and the days you’d prefer.

Stonehill roofs and the weather
About 1.4 miles north-east lies Botleys Mansion, a reminder of how long the area around Stonehill has been built on. On older houses around here, roofs often carry the marks of earlier repairs, from replaced slates to new lead, and the council can say whether a home is in a conservation area. Older houses across Surrey frequently have handmade clay tiles, and many have tile-hanging. A few of Surrey’s oldest buildings have heavy Horsham stone slab roofs. Knowing the roof type helps narrow down where water may be getting in.
Anyone responsible for a site like Salesian School will know that water through a big roof can travel a long way before it drips, so the search covers more than the obvious spot. Trees in and around Gracious Pond shed leaves that can end up in nearby gutters. For an older house near a landmark such as Christ Church, leaks on older roofs often start at lead flashings, valleys or around old chimney stacks.
Stonehill is about 3 miles north of Woking, in Surrey. Roofs in Stonehill get the same thorough look as anywhere else in Surrey. Stonehill is one of the towns and villages in Surrey we cover. We also survey roofs in Guildford.

What affects the cost of storm damage roof reports
A few things affect what a survey costs:
- Any need for thermal images or a drone flight
- Extensions, dormers and garages with roofs of their own
- Roof area
- Chimneys, valleys, parapets and other details
A small, low roof with good viewpoints takes less time than a tall, complicated one, and the package you pick makes a difference too. The price is always agreed first.
What we need to know
Here’s what helps us most when you get in touch:
- The reason for the survey, like buying, a leak or storm damage
- Access details, like a loft hatch or a shared roof
- Any stains, drips or damp patches you’ve seen indoors
- Any photos you have, taken from the ground or a window
Unsure which package suits your roof? It is easiest to phone 07833 053749 or drop us an email and describe the roof and why you want it surveyed. We will explain the options and the price.
Leave it or get it looked at?
Knowing whether older wear played a part helps you understand your position. Our report gives an honest view of both, so there are no surprises later. Outbuildings and barns around Stonehill are easy to forget, but a failed roof there can spoil what’s stored inside. It’s worth including them in a survey before a winter does the damage.
Every price we give includes VAT. Prices start from £150, including VAT. You will know the price for the job before booking.

- Independent findings on the roof’s condition

Rented homes, blocks and businesses
An agent can book and manage the survey for a landlord, and the report can go to both. We agree a time with the tenant beforehand.
Businesses and commercial landlords can book us too, including offices, shops and units. Larger roofs take longer, so they’re priced to suit.
