Storm damage roof reports for homes and businesses in Teynham Street
After a storm, it’s useful to have a clear record of what happened to your roof. Our report shows the damage in photos and says whether it looks like storm damage, wear and tear, or a mix. We are not loss adjusters, and we cannot say whether a claim will be paid. What we give you is an independent record of the roof. We’re often asked to look into lifted or missing ridge and hip tiles and damaged pots on the stack, across gutters and fascias, ridges and hips and chimney stacks.
Many homes in small places like Teynham Street face open ground, so storms hit ridges, verges and chimneys hard. Once water gets into older walls, it takes a long time to dry, so it pays to find the cause quickly. A written record also helps if you need to explain it to anyone else.
The report is yours to share with whoever needs it: a seller or estate agent, an insurer, a roofer, a builder or a managing agent, whichever applies.

How we price storm damage roof reports
All our prices include VAT. What changes the price is:
- Which survey package you book
- The roof’s overall size
- Extra roofs, like extensions, dormers or garages
- House, block, shop or office
The cost of a survey depends on the roof: its size, its height, how many sections it has and how safely it can be seen. Our price is from £150, including VAT.
Getting in touch
Getting the details right at the start saves time. It’s useful to include:
- Dates you’re working to, such as exchange
- The address and postcode of the property
- Whether there is a loft hatch, a shared roof or tricky access
- Any marks or damp showing indoors
Getting a price is simple: just phone 07833 053749 or send us an email, let us know about the property and we’ll explain which survey suits. The price is agreed up front.
Why get it checked now?
Before temporary repairs, photograph the damage from ground level if it is safe. Those photos show the damage as it was. Older and listed buildings around Teynham Street may need consent and matching materials for repairs, so leaving a defect until it’s urgent leaves less time to plan.
Every price we give includes VAT, and the report is not charged as an extra. Prices start from £150, including VAT. Where your roof sits in the range depends on its size, height and access.

The survey, step by step
The visit has one job: to see as much of the roof as can safely be seen and record it clearly. Everything we note and photograph goes into the written report. It usually takes about 1–2 hours at a house, and longer if the damage is spread across a large roof. Somewhere as small as Teynham Street, access is often the only tricky part. Let us know about outbuildings, past repairs and any leaks you’ve noticed. Weekday and weekend visits are available.
- We start with what you’ve seen and any temporary repairs.
- We check inside, including the loft where there is access, for water damage.
- The roof is inspected from the ground, windows and the roof where it is safe.
- We record fresh damage and older defects.
- The report, with photos, is emailed to you.
Before we arrive
- Dig out any old roof reports or invoices
- If it is not your property yet, arrange access through the agent
- Keep pets in another room

Advice
Different roofs, different checks
Chimney stacks
Pots, cowls and aerials on chimneys can be damaged or dislodged in a storm. We record any damage we can see.
Slate roofs
Natural slate can last 100 years or more, but the nails often fail first. The report records whether slipped slates look like storm damage or older wear.
Teynham Street roofs and the weather
Teynham Street is within about 2 miles of the coast, and being near the sea means more wind and salt than a roof inland would face. Driving rain off the sea can be pushed into gaps that stay dry in calmer weather. Across Kent, older roofs are frequently handmade clay or peg tiles, and tile-hanging on upper walls is a familiar sight. You’ll also find oast houses and timber-framed Wealden hall houses among the county’s older buildings. The covering and its details give the first clues when tracing where water is coming from.
Historic houses like Belmont House and Gardens, about 4.8 miles south, show how far back building around Teynham Street goes. Older roofs in the area may have lead flashings, valleys and gutters that have been patched many times. If you live in an older home near Church of St Mary, water on an older roof tends to find its way in at the lead, the valleys or the chimney.
Teynham Street is about 3 miles north-west of Faversham, in Kent.

Teynham Street questions
Do roofs near the sea, like those around Teynham Street, take more of a battering?
It can do. Teynham Street is within about 2 miles of the sea, and coastal roofs tend to see faster wear on metal parts and more wind lifting loose pieces.
Do you cover smaller places like Teynham Street?
Yes, smaller places are covered as well as towns. We work right across London and the South East. Let us know about access, parking and anything unusual about getting there when booking.
Can I challenge a declined storm claim?
Start by complaining to the insurer. If it isn’t resolved, the Financial Ombudsman Service may be able to help. The Ombudsman looks at whether there were storm conditions, whether the damage fits a storm and whether the storm was the main cause.
Should I go up on the roof to take photos?
Only from the ground or from windows. Don’t use a ladder or go onto the roof. Binoculars can help you see damage from below, and we’ll record the rest.
Do you use drones?
Yes, where it is applicable. Our sub-250g drone is flown by a CAA-registered operator with a Flyer ID and Operator ID, and every flight depends on the airspace and the weather.
Will you deal with the insurance company for me?
No. Our report is an independent record for you to use. The insurer may send a loss adjuster of its own.
What do I do if water is coming in?
A roofer should handle temporary protection. Photograph the damage first if you can do so safely. We can record the damage in our report.
When to book a survey in Teynham Street
Some people book because a claim has been questioned. An independent report gives you another view of the roof. We cannot say whether the decision will change.
It is worth booking a survey if you’ve seen:
- Ridge tiles that have come loose
- Holes or cracks caused by debris
- Water coming in after the storm
- Gaps where slates or tiles have gone
If you look after a building such as Teynham Parochial Church of England Primary School, water through a big roof can travel a long way before it drips, so the search covers more than the obvious spot.
