Storm damage roof report in Underling Green
The Financial Ombudsman looks at three things when it considers a storm damage complaint: whether there were storm conditions around the date, whether the damage fits a storm, and whether the storm was the main cause. We record what the roof shows about the damage and its likely cause. You or your insurer can check the weather for the date. We survey chimney stacks, flashings and gutters and fascias, and common reasons people get in touch are damaged flat roof membrane and loose or torn flashings.
Roofs in small places like Underling Green frequently stand in the open, where storms hit ridges, verges and chimneys hardest. 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.
With the Standard Survey, you also get moisture detection, a structural check and a follow-up consultation. The Premium Survey goes further, with thermal imaging, drone inspection where it applies, structural analysis and an in-person consultation.

Roof by roof
Flat roof coverings
Edge trims and laps are often where flat roof coverings start to peel back. The report notes signs of recent damage and older wear.
Chimney stacks
High winds can loosen pots, cowls and aerials on stacks. The report notes any damage to the stack.
The survey, step by step
Expect us to ask a few questions before we start, about the roof’s history, any leaks and past repairs. Then the inspection itself takes an hour or two at a house, and longer if the damage is spread across a large roof. Older rural homes like those around Underling Green can have a main roof, lower lean-to roofs and outbuildings all joined together. Each part is looked at from wherever it can safely be seen.
- You let us know when the storm was and what damage you’ve seen.
- We view the roof from wherever it can safely be seen, including the loft where there is access.
- Each area of damage is photographed and described.
- We check whether the damage fits storm damage, older wear or both.
- You get a written report you can pass to your insurer.
Before the survey
- Check pets are kept safely away
- Leave a clear route to the loft
- If it isn’t your property yet, arrange access through the agent
Booking a survey
We survey roofs seven days a week. To arrange a day that suits you, call 07833 053749 or send us an email with the address and the days you’d prefer.

Your questions about storm damage roof reports in Underling Green
Do you cover Underling Green?
Yes, Underling Green is within the area we cover. We work right across London and South East England. Just ring 07833 053749 or email us and let us know about the property, and we’ll talk through which survey suits.
Is my home in Underling Green listed or in a conservation area?
Your council is the best source, with Historic England’s list for listed buildings. Both listing and conservation areas can limit changes of roofing material.
How long is the visit?
It normally takes about one to two hours for most houses, rising to roughly 3–4 hours on a commercial building. You will then get the report by email.
What’s the best way to book?
It’s easiest to phone 07833 053749 or drop us an email. Give us the address and a few details about the roof, and we will take it from there. We survey on any day of the week.
Do you climb onto every roof?
Only where it’s safe to do so. We check everything that can safely be seen: from ground level, from windows, from inside the roof space, from the roof where it’s safe and by drone where applicable. The report says if anything couldn’t be seen.
What does a storm damage report cost?
Our price is from £150, including VAT. Bigger roofs are quoted on size and access. Repair costs are not included, so ask a roofer to quote.
Do I have to be there for the survey?
It depends on what we need to see. For inside areas and the roof space, someone has to give us access, while outside access can be discussed when booking.
DIY checks: what’s safe
During heavy rain, look at the gutters from ground level or a window. Overflowing water can point to a blockage or a sagging run.
The one thing to avoid is getting up close. Slates, tiles, flat roofs and rooflights can give way. That part is for a survey, using safe viewpoints and a drone where applicable.
Wind, rain and roofs in Underling Green
The wider area around Underling Green has a long history of building, with Stoneacre about 5 miles north-east. Period homes nearby can have lead valleys, tall chimneys and a patchwork of past repairs, and any change of roofing material on a listed home needs checking with the council first. Handmade clay tiles, including Kent peg tiles hung on pegs through two holes, are typical of older Kent buildings. Kent’s older buildings take in oast houses and timber-framed Wealden hall houses as well. Knowing the roof type helps narrow down where water may be getting in.
