Storm Damage Roof Report in Surbiton Park
An independent record of roof damage after a storm in Surbiton Park, using drones and thermal imaging where applicable. Call or email for a price.
- Damaged gutters and fascias
- New damp or leaks inside
- Cowls or aerials dislodged in the wind
How it works
You don’t need to do much on the day. Show us any stains, drips or problem areas you know about, and we will get on with the inspection. The survey itself takes about one to two hours for most homes, depending on how much of the roof was hit. In a London area like Surbiton Park, the main things to sort out are parking and access: let us know about parking, the floor the property is on, any shared entrance and loft access. We then look at whatever is safely visible from ground level, windows, the loft and, where it’s safe, the roof itself.
- We start with what you’ve seen and any temporary repairs.
- Inside, we look for signs of water in the loft and rooms below.
- 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
- Dig out any old roof reports or invoices
- Make a note of anything you’d like us to look at
- Let us know where we can park nearby
Arrange a survey
Our price is from £150, including VAT. What you pay depends on the roof’s size, access and the package, and you can ring 07833 053749 or use the contact form to find out.

Storm damage roof reports for homes and businesses in Surbiton Park
Wear and tear is usually excluded from home insurance. So it matters whether the damage came from the storm or from a roof that was already worn. We note signs of each: recent damage alongside any older defects, like nail fatigue on slates or eroded pointing. We give an honest view of what we see. Your insurer then decides how its policy applies. If you are worried about stains appearing after strong winds and flashings pulled away from walls or stacks, a survey will tell you what’s going on, whatever the roof.
In a London flat, water can travel some way before it shows, sometimes in a different flat from the one below the defect. Tracing it back matters, both for dealing with the cause and for any insurance claim. We look at what we’re given access to in Surbiton Park, inside and out. It’s useful to know when the water appears and in what weather.
The report works through the roof section by section, from the main slopes down to the gutters and outlets. You will see the good as well as the bad.

Useful tips for Surbiton Park property owners
A survey works best with a little help from you, before and after. Some tips:
- Keep fallen slates or tiles as evidence if safe
- Record any water damage in rooms and the loft
- Look at what your policy says about wear and tear
- Keep a note of the date of the storm
Your insurer may send a loss adjuster to look at the damage. You’ll have your own independent record to refer to.
Ask a tree specialist about branches over the roof. Branches can hit or scrape the roof in a storm.
Roof by roof
Clay and concrete tiles
Older tiles held only by nibs, without nails or clips, can lift more easily. We note what we can see of how tiles are fixed.
Lead flashings
Lifted flashings let rain run behind them into the roof. We note where this has happened and any damp inside.
Storm damage roof reports around Surbiton Park
About 1.4 miles west lies Hampton Court Palace, a reminder of how long the area around Surbiton Park has been built on. Period homes nearby can have lead valleys, tall chimneys and a patchwork of past repairs. Alongside Victorian and Edwardian terraces, outer London has a great many interwar semis, often with hipped roofs of clay or concrete tiles. Bay roofs, hip ridges and dormers from later loft conversions are the details that set these houses apart. Knowing the roof type helps narrow down where water may be getting in.
If you run a business near Bentall Centre, a leak can close part of a shop or office, so finding the cause quickly matters. Anyone responsible for a site like St Andrew's and St Mark's CofE Junior School will know that tracing a leak on a big roof starts with where the water appears and works back.

What affects the price in Surbiton Park
When we price a survey, we consider:

Thermal imaging and drone inspection (where applicable) come with the Premium Survey, which starts from £400, with VAT included. We’ll tell you which package suits the questions you have.
Booking your survey
We will normally ask about:
- The style of property, from a terrace to a block
- Where any leaks, stains or damp patches show inside
- Why you want a survey: buying, a leak, a storm or new work
- Whether there’s a loft hatch, a shared roof or tricky access
Surveys can be booked for weekdays, Saturdays or Sundays. To find a date that works for you, ring 07833 053749 or use the contact form with the address and the days you’d prefer.
What we’re asked to look at in Surbiton Park
When you claim, your insurer may ask for evidence of the damage and its cause. An independent report gives you a clear record to send. The decision still rests with the insurer.
Common reasons to book include:
- Loose or torn flashings
- Damaged flat roof membrane
- Gaps where slates or tiles have gone
- Gutters pulled loose in the wind
If you live near a park such as Hampton Court Park, or anywhere with mature trees, autumn leaves can block gutters and valleys, and blocked gutters overflow and soak walls.
Before booking any roof surveyor
- What they will not be able to tell you
- When you will get the report
- Whether the inside of the roof is included
- What follow-up you get after the report
For landlords and managing agents
Managing agents and residents’ management companies use roof surveys to plan maintenance. The report sets out what needs attention now and what can wait.
If the property is let, the agent or a tenant can let us in. We survey on weekdays, Saturdays and Sundays, which helps when tenants work during the week.

Which days do you carry out surveys?
We survey seven days a week: weekdays, Saturdays and Sundays. Just let us know the days that suit you.
Will you check the loft?
Usually, if there’s one and it can be reached safely. From inside, the underside of the roof frequently shows damp, staining or daylight that cannot be seen from outside.
How long will you be at the property?
Time on site depends on the roof; most visits take between one and two hours at a house, and longer if the damage is spread across a large roof. The report is sent afterwards by email.
How are storm damage reports priced?
A storm damage report starts from £150. Commercial and larger roofs are quoted on size. The report doesn’t include repair costs.
Can you tell me if my roof has asbestos?
No. Asbestos surveys and testing are not 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.
