What we do, step by step
After the inspection, everything we found is written up as a written report with photos, emailed to you. As for time on site, it normally takes about one to two hours for most homes, depending on how much of the roof was hit. Older roofs in small places like Touchen-end can have low, tight loft spaces, so tell us about the loft hatch and any ladder. Only areas that can be reached safely are inspected.
- We note the date of the storm and the damage you’ve seen.
- We look at the roof from wherever it’s safe.
- Each area of damage is photographed and described.
- The report notes whether the damage fits a storm, older wear or both.
- We send you the report by email for your insurer.
Before we arrive

Advice
How a storm damage roof report works in Touchen-end
Our storm damage report gives you an independent, written record of how a storm has affected your roof. It sets out what is damaged, with photos, and what we think the likely cause is. It is yours to pass to your insurer. Insurers decide claims on their own policy wording. We’re not loss adjusters, and we cannot tell you whether a claim will succeed. If you’ve noticed loose or torn flashings and damaged ridges and hips, a survey will tell you what’s going on.
Many homes in small places like Touchen-end face open ground, where storms hit ridges, verges and chimneys hardest. 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.
It is not only a list of defects. For each finding, it explains what it is, why it matters and what we’d recommend, so you can plan your next steps.

DIY checks: what’s safe
The one thing to avoid is getting up close. Slates, tiles, flat roofs and rooflights can give way. That’s where a survey comes in, using safe viewpoints and a drone where applicable.
After strong wind, take a look from the pavement or garden: pieces of tile or slate on the ground, a gap in the ridge or a lifted flashing are all worth noting. Do not go up yourself.
Touchen-end: your questions answered
Is my home in Touchen-end 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 Touchen-end in the area you cover?
Yes, Touchen-end is within the area we cover. We cover the whole of London and South East England. Just ring 07833 053749 or drop us an email and let us know about the property.
Do you use drones?
Where it helps and the rules allow, yes. Our sub-250g drone is flown by a CAA-registered operator with a Flyer ID and Operator ID, and the airspace and weather are checked before every flight.
Will my insurer pay for an old roof?
Most policies don’t cover wear and tear. We note both storm damage and older defects, so it’s clear what we found. How the policy applies is up to your insurer.
What wind speed counts as a storm?
It varies by policy. About 55 mph is a common figure in many policies, but check your own wording.
How long will you be at the property?
It typically takes between one and two hours at a house, and longer if the damage is spread across a large roof. The report follows by email.
Which days do you carry out surveys?
We carry out surveys seven days a week. To find a day that suits you, call 07833 053749 or use the contact form.
What affects the price in Touchen-end
Prices vary from roof to roof, for these reasons:
- The package you choose: Basic, Standard or Premium
- Extra roofs, like extensions, dormers or garages
- The roof’s overall size
- How complicated the roof is, with its valleys, chimneys and parapets
Simple, low roofs take less time to survey than tall or complicated ones, and the package matters as well. We’ll give you the figure before anything is booked.
What to tell us when you contact us
We’ll typically ask about:
- Whether there is a loft hatch, a shared roof or tricky access
- The address and postcode of the property
- Dates you are working to, such as exchange
- Why you want a survey: buying, a leak, a storm or new work
Getting a price is simple: just ring 07833 053749 or use the contact form and give us some details about the property and we’ll explain which survey suits. We confirm the price before anything is booked.
What this survey cannot tell you
It’s a careful look at the roof, not the whole story. The main limits are:
- Negotiating a claim settlement
- What your policy covers, which depends on its wording
- The outcome of a claim
If in doubt, phone 07833 053749 or use the contact form and we’ll recommend the right survey. What a survey covers and doesn’t.

When to book a survey in Touchen-end
Branches and trees often come down on roofs during storms. The report shows what was hit and the damage caused, with photographs.
A survey makes sense if you’ve noticed:
- Lead lifted at abutments
- Damage from fallen branches or debris
- Damaged flat roof membrane
- Stains appearing after strong winds
Anyone responsible for a site like Holyport College will know that a leak through a large roof is frequently found some distance from where the water shows inside.
Before booking anyone
- Whether the price includes VAT
- What experience they bring
- Whether the roof space is looked at, where there is one
- Whether they hold professional indemnity and public liability insurance

Tips that help
Nothing here needs a ladder. Our suggestions:
- Keep any slates, tiles or debris that fall, if it is safe to do so
- Write down when the storm hit and when you noticed damage
- File receipts for anything you pay for
- Tell your insurer about the damage promptly
Questions about the findings are always welcome. Standard Surveys come with a follow-up consultation, and Premium Surveys with an in-person one.
Have overhanging branches looked at by a tree surgeon. They can damage the roof in high winds.
Storm damage roof reports in Touchen-end: local notes
Across the South East, older homes tend to have slate or clay tiles, and many later ones concrete tiles. The covering and its details give the first clues when tracing where water is coming from. With Dorney Court about 2.9 miles north-east, Touchen-end sits in an area with a long building history. 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.
Trees in and around Ockwells Park shed leaves that can end up in nearby gutters, so outlets and downpipes are worth watching. If you let a flat or house near Maidenhead station, tracing a leak quickly matters when a tenant is living with it.
