Storm damage roof report in Weavers Down
When a storm has damaged your roof, a written record can help you explain it to your insurer. We photograph the damage, describe it and note whether it fits storm damage, older wear or both. We are not loss adjusters and cannot tell you if your claim will succeed. What you get is an independent view of the roof’s condition. We’re frequently asked to look into slipped or missing slates or tiles and damaged ridges and hips, across slate and tile slopes, flashings and ridges and hips.
For a small place like Weavers Down, the inspection is the same as anywhere: we simply plan the journey and access ahead. Let us know where the water shows, when it appears and anything you’ve noticed outside, plus any earlier repairs. Photographs of the stain and of the roof from outside are helpful too.
It is not only a list of defects. It explains what we found, why it matters and what we recommend.

The survey, step by step
The aim of the visit is simple: to look at the roof as closely as is safe and record what we find. Everything we note and photograph goes into the written report. The visit typically takes roughly 1–2 hours at a house, and longer if the damage is spread across a large roof. Cottages and farmhouses around Weavers Down frequently have roofs at several levels, with lean-tos and outbuildings attached. We work round each section in turn, from the safest viewpoints.
- We note the date of the storm and the damage you’ve seen.
- We check the roof from wherever it’s safe.
- We record and photograph the damage.
- We note the likely cause and any signs of older wear.
- We send you the report by email for your insurer.

Advice
What happens if roof problems are left?
Once the storm has passed, damage that looked minor can let water in for months. Acting quickly typically means less damage overall. Outbuildings and barns around Weavers Down are easy to forget, but a failed roof there can spoil what’s stored inside. A quick look before winter can save a lot.

Leaks and storm damage in Weavers Down
Some Hampshire villages still have thatched roofs. Older houses in the South East often have slate or clay tile roofs, while many later estates have concrete tiles. Knowing the roof type helps narrow down where water may be getting in. There are about 500,000 buildings on England’s list of listed buildings, and around 10,000 conservation areas. If your 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, so the council is the place to ask.
Take a building like Liphook Church of England Controlled Junior School: tracing a leak on a big roof starts with where the water appears and works back. Landlords with a home close to Liphook station may find that a clear finding on where water gets in helps you brief a roofer straight away.

What affects the cost of storm damage roof reports
Not every roof costs the same to survey, and it comes down to:

- How many separate roofs there are, such as extensions, dormers and garages

- Features like valleys, chimneys, dormers and parapets

Weavers Down questions
Does a conservation area affect roof work in Weavers Down?
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 Weavers Down in the area you cover?
Yes, Weavers Down is within the area we cover. We cover the whole of London and South East England. Just ring 07833 053749 or send us an email and let us know about the property.
Will you check the loft?
Where it is relevant to the survey and there is safe access, yes. A clear path to the hatch helps, and if the loft can’t be reached safely, the report says so.
Is wear and tear covered by insurance?
Wear and tear is typically excluded from home insurance. We note both storm damage and older defects, so you know what the roof shows. Your insurer decides how its policy applies.
Do you survey roofs on blocks of flats?
Yes. Shared roofs just need a little more planning. Mention it when you get in touch and we’ll plan the survey around it.
Can you inspect my roof with a drone?
Yes, where applicable and safe. We’re a CAA-registered drone operator (Flyer ID and Operator ID), flying a sub-250g drone. It’s included in the Drone Roof Survey and, where it applies, the Premium Survey.
How long will you be at the property?
Most surveys take roughly 1–2 hours for most houses, rising to roughly 3–4 hours on a commercial building. The report follows by email.
