Upper Street questions
Do you carry out roof surveys in Upper Street?
Yes, Upper Street is one of the places we work. Every survey there gets the same written report with photos.
Will you come out to Upper Street?
Yes, Upper Street is on our map. Villages and rural addresses get the same survey as a town house, with the route planned beforehand.
How do I book a survey in Upper Street?
It’s easiest to call 07833 053749 or send us an email. Give us the address and a few details about the roof, and we’ll point you to the right survey. Surveys run on weekdays, Saturdays and Sundays.
Do you test for asbestos?
No. We don’t sample or test for asbestos. The report may flag materials that could contain asbestos on buildings built or refurbished before 2000.
Do I need to be at home?
Not necessarily. If we only need the outside, we can agree that beforehand, but the loft and any rooms with damp need someone to let us in.
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 every flight depends on the airspace and the weather.
Do you look in the roof space?
If there is a loft and safe access to it, yes. From inside, the underside of the roof frequently shows damp, staining or daylight that can’t be seen from outside.
About our storm damage roof report in Upper Street
Our storm damage report starts from £150. It’s a report with photographs, sent by email. It doesn’t price the repairs, so you’ll need a roofer’s quote for that. The insurer may still send a loss adjuster of its own. What you get is an independent record of the damage and what seems to have caused it. We survey slate and tile slopes, flashings and gutters and fascias, and people most often book us about new damp or leaks inside and damaged pots on the stack.
In a village or hamlet like Upper Street, older cottages and farmhouses often have roofs that have been patched over many years. That makes it hard to tell new damage from old wear, and the difference matters, particularly to an insurer. We check what can be seen safely and set out what we find. Older walls and timbers hold water for a long time, so it’s worth finding the cause soon.
The report records the roof as we found it on the day. It is useful right away, and a good reference for later, for example when you want to check whether anything has changed.

What this survey cannot tell you
We only report everything that’s safely in view on the day, so some things are outside what a survey can do:
- Damage hidden under coverings or inside the structure, without opening up
- Your insurer’s view of the claim
- Whether your insurer will pay the claim
Not sure which survey suits your roof? You can phone 07833 053749 or use the contact form and we’ll tell you before you book. The full list of what we check.

How we price storm damage roof reports
Survey packages start from £150, inc. VAT. What you pay for your roof depends on:
- The use of thermal imaging or a drone
- The package you choose: Basic, Standard or Premium
- How big the roof is
- The height of the building and how the roof can safely be seen
Bigger, taller and commercial roofs take more time to survey, so they’re priced to match. You will know the figure before booking.
Helping us price your survey
Before you get in touch, it’s useful to have:
- Pictures from the garden or a window, if you have them
- Anything about access we should know
- The property’s address and postcode
- The kind of building and roof involved
Unsure which package suits your roof? It is easiest to call 07833 053749 or send us an email and describe the roof and why you want it surveyed. We will talk you through the options and what they cost.
Leaks and storm damage in Upper Street
Some Hampshire villages still have thatched roofs. Across the South East, older homes tend to have slate or clay tiles, and many later ones concrete tiles. Where water gets in depends a good deal on what the roof is made of and how it’s detailed. The wider area around Upper Street has a long history of building, with Breamore House about 0.5 miles north-east. Older homes in the wider area frequently have features worth a closer look, like lead valleys, tall stacks and roofs that have been patched over the years, and a listed home or one in a conservation area may need consent for changes of material.
If you own one of the older houses in the streets near Church of St Mary, lead flashings, valleys and old chimneys are typical places for water to get in.

Do you need a storm damage roof report in Upper Street?
Roofs that were already worn are more likely to suffer in a storm. Nail fatigue, eroded ridge mortar and tired flashings can all fail in high winds. We record recent damage alongside older defects.
A survey can pick up problems like:
- Loose or torn flashings
- Roofs hit by falling trees
- Gutters pulled loose in the wind
- Lifted or missing ridge and hip tiles
Take a building like Breamore Church of England Primary School: tracing a leak on a big roof starts with where the water appears and works back.
Questions to ask before you book
- What the survey won’t cover
- How soon the report will arrive
- Whether you can ask questions once you have the report
- How they’ll see the roof: from the ground, the loft, the roof or by drone
What we look for on each type of roof
Flat roof coverings
On flat roofs, storms can lift edges and tear membranes. We record any damage and where it is.
Chimney stacks
High winds can loosen pots, cowls and aerials on stacks. We record any damage we can see.
What happens on the day
The visit typically starts outside and finishes in the loft: first the slopes, edges and gutters from every safe viewpoint, then the loft space where it can be reached. All told, expect between one and two hours at a house, and longer if the damage is spread across a large roof. In a hamlet or village like Upper Street, a postcode doesn’t always lead to the right gate, so a few directions, or a note of a nearby landmark, help us arrive on time. After that, the survey runs as it would anywhere.
- We start with the details: when the storm hit and what damage you can see.
- We view the roof from wherever it can be seen safely, including the loft where there is access.
- We photograph and record every area of damage we can see.
- We check whether the damage fits storm damage, older wear or both.
- The findings are written up with photographs for you to share with your insurer.
Before we arrive
- Make sure the loft hatch can be reached
- Gather any invoices or paperwork from past roof work
- Let us know about parking near the property
