What a survey costs
We confirm the price for your survey before booking. These are the things that affect it:
- How big the roof is
- Building height and the viewpoints available
- Chimneys, valleys, parapets and other details
- Commercial roofs and larger buildings
Bigger, taller and commercial roofs take more time to survey, so the price reflects that. You will know the figure before booking.

Storm damage roof report in Turville
Wear and tear is normally excluded from home insurance. That makes the difference between storm damage and old wear important. Our report records both: fresh breaks and recently moved slates or tiles, and older problems such as corroded nails or worn mortar. We describe what we see, whichever way it points. How the policy applies is for your insurer to decide. If you’ve noticed new damp or leaks inside and lead lifted at abutments, a survey will tell you what’s going on.
Being in a small place like Turville makes no difference to how a leak or storm damage is looked at: the journey and access are just planned ahead of time. Let us know where the water shows, when it appears and anything you’ve noticed outside, along with any repairs done before. Photographs of the stain and of the roof from outside are helpful too.
The report works through the roof section by section, from the main slopes down to the gutters and outlets, each with a short note and a photo. You’ll see the good as well as the bad.

How the survey works
Once we have finished looking, we write up our findings in a report with photographs, emailed to you. On timing, most surveys take roughly 1–2 hours on an ordinary house, or half a day or so for a commercial building. Somewhere like Turville needs a little journey planning: let us know about lanes, gates and parking. On the day, we inspect whatever is safely visible, inside and out.
- We start with what you’ve seen and any temporary repairs.
- We check inside, including the loft where there’s access, for water damage.
- The roof is inspected from the ground, windows and the roof where it’s safe.
- We record fresh damage and older defects.
- You receive the written report with photos.
Before the survey
- If the roof is shared, arrange access with whoever manages the building
- Mention any parking restrictions on your street
- Show us where any leaks or stains appear

Related advice
Before and after the survey
Nothing here needs a ladder. A few suggestions:
- Keep any slates, tiles or debris that fall, if it is safe to do so
- Keep receipts for any emergency work
- Report the damage to your insurer as soon as you can
- Photograph damage inside the house too
The report is emailed to you, and you decide what to send to your insurer. We don’t deal with the insurer on your behalf.
A well-maintained roof stands up to storms better. Fix slipped slates, loose ridges and lifted flashings when you spot them.
For landlords and managing agents
Buyers’ agents can book surveys on behalf of their clients. The report is emailed, so it can go straight to your client.
Any of our surveys can be booked by landlords, agents and building managers in Turville. To discuss a property or a block, ring 07833 053749 or email us.
Storm damage roof reports in Turville: local notes
Cotswold stone slates are found on older buildings in west Oxfordshire, and thatch survives in some of the county’s villages. Older houses in the South East frequently have slate or clay tile roofs, while many later estates have concrete tiles. Each of these roof types has its own typical places for water to get in. The wider area around Turville has a long history of building, with Stonor Park about 2 miles south-west. 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.
For site and facilities teams at buildings such as Ibstone CofE Primary School, a leak through a large roof is frequently found some distance from where the water shows inside. If you live in an older home near Church of St Mary, lead flashings, valleys and old chimneys are typical places for water to get in.

Your questions about storm damage roof reports in Turville
Is my home in Turville listed or in a conservation area?
Historic England’s list shows listed buildings, and the local council can tell you about conservation areas. If a home is listed, changes that affect its special interest need listed building consent, and in a conservation area re-roofing in different materials may need permission.
Is Turville within the area you cover?
Yes, smaller places are covered as well as towns. We cover the whole of London and South East England. Just mention lanes, gates or anything else about the route when booking.
What if my insurer declines the claim?
Complain to your insurer first. If you’re still unhappy, you may be able to take it to the Financial Ombudsman Service. An independent report can add to your evidence, but we cannot say how it will turn out.
What does a storm damage report cost?
A storm damage report starts from £150. Larger roofs are quoted for their size. The report does not include repair costs.
What do I do if water is coming in?
Call a roofer for emergency temporary protection. If it is safe, photograph the damage before it’s covered. Keep receipts for any emergency work.
Can you survey a shared roof?
Yes, as long as access is agreed. The roof of a block or converted house is often shared, so we need permission from whoever owns or manages the building. We inspect only the parts we are allowed to reach.
Will you check the loft?
Yes, where the survey calls for it and there’s safe access. We look for staining, damp, daylight and signs of movement, as far as the space allows.
What this survey cannot tell you
A survey is a proper look at the roof, but it cannot do everything. The main limits are:
- Whether your insurer will pay the claim
- Your insurer’s view of the claim
- Estimates of repair costs
