Storm damage roof report in Temple Valley, Hampshire
Wondering about the roof at a property in Temple Valley? We carry out storm damage roof reports in Temple Valley and across Hampshire, with plain-English findings.
- Lifted or missing ridge and hip tiles
- Slates and tiles blown off the roof
- Water coming in after the storm
DIY checks: what’s safe
After heavy rain, check ceilings and the tops of walls for new stains. Photograph them and note the date, which helps when we check the roof.
After strong wind, take a look from the pavement or garden: broken slates or tiles in the garden, gaps along the ridge or loose lead are signs to note. Do not go up yourself.
How a storm damage roof report works in Temple Valley
A storm damage roof report is priced from £150. It is a photo-illustrated written report, sent by email. It doesn’t price the repairs, so ask a roofer to quote for the work. Your insurer may also send its own loss adjuster. Our report gives you an independent record of the damage and its likely cause. If you are worried about flashings pulled away from walls or stacks and new damp or leaks inside, we can find out what’s behind it, on chimney stacks, gutters and fascias and flashings alike.
Somewhere as small as Temple Valley, older roofs have often been repaired many times. That makes it hard to tell new damage from old wear, which matters if you are thinking of an insurance claim. The report says what was seen and what it points to. Older walls and timbers hold water for a long time, so it is worth finding the cause soon.
Report times depend on the survey you book: the Basic Survey within 48 hours, the Standard Survey in 24 to 48 hours and the Premium Survey on the same day.

Leaks and storm damage in Temple Valley
Thatch survives on some older buildings in Hampshire’s villages. Slate and clay tile are the usual coverings on older South East houses, with concrete tiles on many later estates. Different coverings let water in at different points, which shapes where the search starts. The wider area around Temple Valley has a long history of building, with Hinton Ampner House about 4.2 miles east. Older homes in the wider area frequently have features worth a closer look, such as lead valleys, tall stacks and roofs that have been patched over the years, and the council can say whether a home is in a conservation area.
If you own a rental within reach of Winchester station, tracing a leak quickly matters when a tenant is living with it.

Temple Valley questions
Is my home in Temple Valley listed or in a conservation area?
The council and Historic England’s list are the places to check. It is worth checking before planning roof work, as both can affect what’s allowed.
Is Temple Valley within the area you cover?
Yes, Temple Valley is on our map. Villages and rural addresses get the same survey as a town house, with the route planned beforehand.
How many surveys have you done?
We have more than 20 years’ experience and have carried out more than 5,000 surveys across London and South East England.
I live in a flat. Can you survey the roof?
Yes, if the freeholder or managing agent agrees access. On a shared roof we can only inspect the parts we’re allowed to reach, and the report makes that clear.
Are you loss adjusters?
No. Our report is an independent record for you to use. The insurer may send a loss adjuster of its own.
Which days do you carry out surveys?
We survey on any day from Monday to Sunday, during the day, which suits people who work during the week. Let us know your preferred days when you book.
How are storm damage reports priced?
Our reports start from £150. Larger roofs are quoted for their size. The report doesn’t include repair costs.

Practical tips
These tips come from what we see on roofs every week:
- Check how your policy defines a storm
- Write down when the storm hit and when you noticed damage
- Keep receipts for any emergency work
- Arrange temporary cover with a roofer if rain is getting in
If anything in the report is not clear, just ask us. Standard Surveys come with a follow-up consultation, and Premium Surveys with an in-person one.
Ask a tree specialist about branches over the roof. Branches can hit or scrape the roof in a storm.
What we look for on each type of roof
Clay and concrete tiles
A missing tile lets rain reach the underlay. We photograph each gap.
Chimney stacks
Pots, cowls and aerials on chimneys can be damaged or dislodged in a storm. The report notes any damage to the stack.
The survey, step by step
There isn’t much for you to do on the day. Point out anything you’ve noticed, like stains, drips or loose pieces, 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. Rural addresses near Temple Valley can be hard to find from a postcode alone, so a few directions are welcome. The visit itself is the same as anywhere else.
- We note the date of the storm and the damage you’ve seen.
- 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.
Preparing for the visit
- Move anything stored under the loft hatch
- For flats, check roof access has been agreed
- Have any questions written down, so nothing gets missed
