How a storm damage roof report works in Stony Green
High winds normally affect the parts of a roof that are already exposed or loose. Typical damage includes lost slates and tiles, lifted ridges, loose flashings and torn flat roof coverings. Falling branches can cause damage too. Our report records what has happened to your roof, with photos. Where we also see signs of older wear, the report records that too. Common reasons to book are gaps where slates or tiles have gone and damaged gutters and fascias, across flashings, ridges and hips and gutters and fascias.
Roofs in small places like Stony Green often stand in the open, 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.
With the Standard Survey, you also get moisture detection, a structural check and a follow-up consultation. The Premium Survey goes further, with thermal imaging, drone inspection where it applies, structural analysis and an in-person consultation.

Leaks and storm damage in Stony Green
Thatch survives on some older buildings in Buckinghamshire’s villages. Slate and clay tile are the usual coverings on older South East houses, with concrete tiles on many later estates. Knowing the roof type helps narrow down where water may be getting in. About 2.7 miles south lies Hughenden Manor, a reminder of how long the area around Stony Green has been built on. Older roofs in the wider area can hide decades of patch repairs, so the detail matters, and a listed home or one in a conservation area may need consent for changes of material.
For an older house near a landmark such as Holy Trinity Church, leaks on older roofs often start at lead flashings, valleys or around old chimney stacks. Take a building like Prestwood Junior School: a leak through a large roof is often found some distance from where the water shows inside.
Stony Green is about 4 miles north of High Wycombe, in Buckinghamshire. Houses, flats, blocks and commercial buildings in Stony Green can all book storm damage roof reports. Our area takes in places right across Buckinghamshire, large and small. We also survey roofs in Reading.

Do you need a storm damage roof report in Stony Green?
Landlords and building managers frequently need a written record after a storm. It helps when explaining damage to a building owner or insurer.
These are some of the problems a survey can pick up:
- Roofs hit by falling trees
- Lead lifted at abutments
- Damaged ridges and hips
- Gutters pulled loose in the wind
If you own a rental within reach of Great Missenden station, finding the cause of a leak fast keeps a tenant’s home dry and the work focused.
Choosing a roof surveyor
- Which parts of the roof they’ll actually see
- Will the report include photos?
- When you’ll get the report
- Whether VAT is in the quoted price
Leave it or get it looked at?
Once the storm has passed, damage that looked minor can let water in for months. Getting it recorded and repaired sooner is normally better. Where a roof is exposed, as many are in small places like Stony Green, driving rain gets into any weakness, and older walls, once damp, take a long time to dry.
The cost of a survey depends on the roof: how big it is, how high it is, the number of separate roofs and how safely it can be seen. Our price is from £150, including VAT.

Your questions about storm damage roof reports in Stony Green
Do you carry out roof surveys in Stony Green?
Yes, Stony Green is one of the places we work. The survey and report are the same in Stony Green as anywhere else, and visits run on weekdays and weekends.
Is Stony Green within the area you cover?
Yes. Stony Green is within the area we cover, which takes in towns, villages and rural addresses. We survey roofs across London and South East England. Just mention lanes, gates or anything else about the route when booking.
Which days do you carry out surveys?
We carry out surveys seven days a week. To arrange a date, call 07833 053749 or use the contact form.
Will you go up on the roof?
Only if it’s safe. We inspect everything that’s safely in view: from ground level, from windows and vantage points, from the loft space, from the roof itself where safe and by drone where it applies. The report says if anything couldn’t be seen.
How long is the visit?
It usually takes about 1–2 hours at a typical home, and longer for a large or complex roof. The report follows by email.
Do you test for asbestos?
No. Asbestos surveys and sampling aren’t something we do. The report may flag materials that could contain asbestos on buildings built or refurbished before 2000.
Do you look in the roof space?
Typically, if there’s one and it can be reached safely. The roof space can show things the outside cannot, such as damp timbers, staining or daylight.
Can I check my roof myself?
If you have a loft with safe access, take a look inside. Use a torch and stay on the joists or boards, checking for stains, damp wood or chinks of daylight.
Watch the gutters in a downpour, from a window or the ground. Water spilling over the edge can be a sign of a blockage or a gutter that has dropped.
How it works
Every visit follows the same pattern: we listen to what’s been worrying you, inspect the roof from every safe vantage point, photograph what we find and make notes for the report. Most visits take between one and two hours at a house, and longer if the damage is spread across a large roof. For a village or hamlet like Stony Green, the journey is planned in advance: let us know about lanes, gates and parking. On the day, we inspect what can be seen safely, inside and out.
- First we go through when the storm hit and what you’ve noticed.
- The roof is inspected from safe positions.
- Each area of damage is photographed and described.
- The report notes whether the damage fits a storm, older wear or both.
- 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
- Let us know about parking near the property
- Make a note of anything you’d like us to look at
