Storm damage roof report in West Bedfont: what you get
Each roof is looked at from the safest viewpoints available: from the ground, from windows and higher points, from the loft space and from the roof where it is safe. We photograph and describe each area of damage. If part of the roof can’t be seen, the report says so. The report, with photos, is yours to pass to your insurer. Common reasons to book are new damp or leaks inside and lead lifted at abutments, on gutters and fascias, slate and tile slopes and flat roofs.
Many homes in small places like West Bedfont face open ground, so storms hit ridges, verges and chimneys hard. Once water gets into older walls, it takes a long time to dry, which makes finding the cause quickly worthwhile. A written record also helps if you need to explain it to anyone else.
The report works through the roof section by section, from the main slopes down to the gutters and outlets. You’ll see the good as well as the bad.

What affects the price in West Bedfont
What a survey costs depends on the time and equipment it needs. The main factors are:
- Commercial roofs and larger buildings
- Which survey package you book
- How tall the building is and how easy the roof is to see
- If the survey needs thermal imaging or a drone
Bigger, taller and commercial roofs take more time to survey, so the price reflects that. You will know the figure before booking.
What to let us know when you get in touch
To price your survey accurately, we will ask about:
- Access details, like a loft hatch or a shared roof
- Any photos you have, taken from ground level or a window
- The style of property, from a terrace to a block
- Any marks or damp showing indoors
We confirm the price for the job before you book, so you know the cost up front. Prices start from £150, including VAT. To book, ring 07833 053749 or email us.
Roof by roof
Ridge and hip tiles
Worn mortar under ridge tiles can let them lift in a storm. Our report says whether it looks freshly damaged or worn over time.
Flat roof coverings
On flat roofs, storms can lift edges and tear membranes. Damage is photographed and described.
What a storm damage roof report looks like in West Bedfont
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. Each of these roof types has its own typical places for water to get in. An older home may be listed, or stand in a conservation area. Historic England’s list shows listed buildings, and the council can say whether a street is in a conservation area. In either case, a change of roofing material may need consent.
Take a building like Stanwell Fields CofE Primary School: on a building that size, finding the source of a drip means looking well beyond the stain. A roof leak in a hotel or guest house around West Bedfont means lost rooms as well as repairs.

Should I look at the roof myself first?
If you have a loft with safe access, take a look inside. Use a torch and stay on the joists or boards, checking for stains, damp wood or chinks of daylight.
A DIY look is useful, but it isn’t a survey. From ground level, valleys, flashings and the backs of chimneys are frequently out of sight, and those are details a survey looks at closely.
Questions from West Bedfont
Does a conservation area affect roof work in West Bedfont?
We can’t confirm that for you, but Historic England’s list and your council can. Both listing and conservation areas can limit changes of roofing material.
Will you come out to West Bedfont?
Yes, we do. We survey roofs across London and South East England, and smaller places are part of that. Longer journeys are simply planned in advance.
Can you tell me if my claim will be paid?
Only your insurer can decide that. Our report records what is damaged, with photos, and the likely cause, for you to give to your insurer.
Which days do you carry out surveys?
Surveys can be booked for any day of the week: weekdays, Saturdays and Sundays. Just let us know the days that suit you.
Will you go up on the roof?
Only where it’s safe to do so. We inspect what can be seen safely: from the ground, from windows, from inside the loft space, from the roof where it is safe and by drone where applicable. Anything we can’t see is noted in the report.
Do I have to be there for the survey?
Someone needs to let us in if we are looking inside or in the loft. We will talk about access as you book.
How do I book a survey in West Bedfont?
To arrange a survey, call 07833 053749 or use the contact form with the address, the type of property and what’s prompted the survey. We’ll confirm the price and find a day that suits.
What happens on the day
On the day, we start by asking what you’ve noticed and what you’d like to know. We then inspect everything that can be seen safely. Most surveys take an hour or two on an ordinary house, and about three to four hours for a commercial roof. Older roofs in small places like West Bedfont can have low, tight loft spaces, so tell us about the loft hatch and any ladder. Only areas that can be reached safely are inspected.
- We note the date of the storm and the damage you’ve seen.
- The roof is inspected from safe positions.
- We record and photograph the damage.
- The report notes whether the damage fits a storm, older wear or both.
- You get a written report to pass to your insurer.
How to prepare
- Clear the way to the loft hatch
- Check pets are kept safely away
- Dig out any old roof reports or invoices

What we are asked to look at in West Bedfont
When you claim, your insurer may ask for evidence of the damage and its cause. A written report with photos gives you something clear to pass on. The decision still rests with the insurer.
Look out for signs like these:
- Flat roof edges peeled back
- New damp or leaks inside
- Broken or displaced guttering
- Holes or cracks caused by debris
If yours is one of the older homes in the streets near Church of St Mary, the leak may come from a chimney, a valley or tired lead rather than the covering itself.
Before you book any roof surveyor
- Which viewpoints they use to see the roof
- What the survey won’t cover
- When you will get the report
- Their drone registration, if they fly one
