Storm damage roof reports for homes and businesses in Teynham
Each roof is looked at from the safest viewpoints available: from the ground, from windows and higher points, from the loft space and from the roof where it’s safe. Every area of damage is photographed and described. If part of the roof cannot be seen, the report says so. You get a written report with photos to give to your insurer. Common reasons to book are lifted or missing ridge and hip tiles and loose or torn flashings, across gutters and fascias, flashings and slate and tile slopes.
Houses in smaller places like Teynham can stand more in the open, so wind and driving rain find any weakness in ridges, verges and flashings. A leak that only appears in certain weather often points to an exposed detail. Tell us when it happens when you contact us. The gutters on the most exposed side can overflow too.
You can share the report with anyone who needs it: a seller or estate agent, an insurer, a roofer, a builder or a managing agent, whichever applies.

What happens if roof problems are left?
It is useful to get a record soon after the storm, while the damage is fresh. Further storms and quick fixes can make the picture less clear. In a smaller place like Teynham, wherever a roof is exposed, a loose ridge or flashing does not stay loose for long. Each storm lifts it a little further, and water follows.
Larger roofs, taller buildings and commercial roofs take longer, so they’re priced to match. You will know the figure before booking.

DIY checks: what’s safe
The one thing to avoid is getting up close. Roofs are fragile and slippery. That part is for a survey, using safe viewpoints and a drone where applicable.
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.
Teynham: your questions answered
Do you cover smaller places like Teynham?
Yes, smaller places are covered as well as towns. Our area covers London and South East England. Let us know about access, parking and anything unusual about getting there as you book.
Is my home in Teynham listed or in a conservation area?
Check Historic England’s online list first, then ask the council about conservation areas and any Article 4 direction. The answer matters most when a change of material is on the cards.
Will you check the loft?
If it is needed and safe to reach, yes. Inside, we look for damp, staining, gaps and sagging, as far as the space allows.
How do I book a survey in Teynham?
To book, phone 07833 053749 or use the contact form with the address, the type of property and what’s prompted the survey. We’ll confirm the price and find a day that suits.
How experienced are you?
We have completed more than 5,000 surveys, across 20+ years of surveying roofs, with 98% customer satisfaction.
Can you inspect my roof with a drone?
Where it helps and it’s safe, yes. Flights depend on the weather on the day and airspace rules, including flight restriction zones near airports. We’re a CAA-registered drone operator.
Is this a RICS survey?
No. Our survey is a roof survey, not a RICS Level 2 or Level 3 survey of the whole building. It focuses on the roof, so it sits alongside a building survey rather than replacing it.
Leaks and storm damage in Teynham
Teynham lies within about 3 miles of the sea, where storms can bring strong gusts off the sea. What counts as a storm is set by each policy, often gusts of around 55 mph, and the insurer makes the decision. Handmade clay tiles, including Kent peg tiles hung on pegs through two holes, are typical of older Kent buildings. The county’s older buildings also include oast houses and timber-framed Wealden hall houses. Different coverings let water in at different points, which shapes where the search starts.
Belmont House and Gardens lies about 4.4 miles south-east, so building around Teynham goes back a long way. Leaks in period homes nearby often come from lead work and valleys that have been patched before. Take a building like Teynham Parochial Church of England Primary School: tracing a leak on a big roof starts with where the water appears and works back.

What else we do in Teynham
When to book a survey in Teynham
Storms don’t only affect pitched roofs. Wind can lift edges and tear coverings, and blocked outlets can leave water ponding after heavy rain. We record what we find on flat and pitched roofs alike.
A survey makes sense if you’ve noticed:
- Cowls or aerials dislodged in the wind
- Slates and tiles blown off the roof
- New damp or leaks inside
- Flashings pulled away from walls or stacks
If you let a flat or house near Teynham station, tracing a leak quickly matters when a tenant is living with it.
Before booking anyone

Surveys for landlords and agents in Teynham
We survey roofs for letting agents and landlords as well as homeowners. A report with photographs gives you a clear record of the roof.
Any of our surveys can be booked by landlords, agents and building managers in Teynham. To discuss a property or a block, phone 07833 053749 or drop us an email.
What happens on the day
We will ask a few questions first, like when any problem began and what work has been done before. Then the inspection itself takes roughly 1–2 hours on an ordinary house, with bigger or more complicated roofs taking longer. Homes around Teynham often have gardens on more than one side, which gives us room to step back and see the roof. Let us know if any side is fenced off or hard to reach. Inside, the loft is checked where it can be reached safely.
- You tell us what happened and whether a roofer has made the roof safe.
- Inside, we look for signs of water in the loft and rooms below.
- We view the roof from safe positions.
- Storm damage and older wear are recorded separately where we can.
- You receive the written report with photographs.
Before the survey
- If you are buying, check with the agent that we can get in
- Clear the way to the loft hatch
- For a flat or shared roof, check access with the freeholder or managing agent
