Storm damage roof report in Walton on the Hill: what you get
We inspect the roof from wherever it can safely be seen: the ground, windows and vantage points, the loft where there’s access, and the roof itself where that’s safe. Every area of damage is photographed and described. If part of the roof cannot be seen, the report says so. The report, with photos, is yours to pass to your insurer. We survey gutters and fascias, ridges and hips and flat roofs, and people most often book us about damage from fallen branches or debris and loose or torn flashings.
For a small place like Walton on the Hill, the inspection is the same as anywhere: we simply plan the journey and access ahead. It helps to know where the water appears, in what weather, and what you’ve seen outside, along with any repairs done before. If you have photographs of the water coming in, they help as well.
Report times depend on the survey you book: the Basic Survey within 48 hours, the Standard Survey in 24 to 48 hours and the Premium Survey on the same day.

Storm damage roof reports around Walton on the Hill
Handmade clay tiles and tile-hung walls are typical of Surrey’s older houses. Some old buildings in Surrey and Sussex have Horsham stone slab roofs. Knowing the roof type helps narrow down where water may be getting in. The wider area around Walton on the Hill has a long history of building, with Fitznells Manor about 5 miles north. If you own one of the older houses, expect a mix of original materials and later repairs on the roof, and the council can say whether a home is in a conservation area.
If you own a rental within reach of Tadworth station, finding the cause of a leak fast keeps a tenant’s home dry and the work focused. If you run a business near The Ashley Centre, a leak can close part of a shop or office, so finding the cause quickly matters. For site and facilities teams at buildings like Walton-on-the-Hill Primary School, a leak through a large roof is often found some distance from where the water shows inside.

Is my home in Walton on the Hill listed or in a conservation area?

Will my insurer pay out if I get a storm damage report?
We can’t say whether a claim will be paid. The decision rests with your insurer and its policy. Our report gives you an independent record of the damage and its likely cause.
Is this a RICS survey?
No. It is a specialist roof survey, not a RICS Level 2 or Level 3 building survey. It focuses on the roof, so it sits alongside a building survey rather than replacing it.
Will my insurer pay for an old roof?
Wear and tear is not usually covered. Our report gives an honest view of what’s recent damage and what’s older wear. The claim decision is your insurer’s.
