Storm damage roof reports near Weybourne

Storm damage roof reports for homes and businesses in Weybourne

Our storm damage report starts from £150. It is a report with photographs, sent by email. It does not price the repairs, so ask a roofer to quote for the work. Your insurer may also send its own loss adjuster. What you get is an independent record of the damage and what seems to have caused it. Typical surveys look at gaps where slates or tiles have gone and loose or broken chimney pots and cowls, across slate and tile slopes, flashings and ridges and hips.

Older cottages and houses around Weybourne may have roofs with little or no underlay. Once the slates or tiles let water past, there’s little to stop it reaching the ceiling. Whether it’s long-term wear or recent damage makes a difference to what happens next. In the loft, damp battens or wet insulation are frequently the first clues.

How fast the report arrives depends on the package: the Basic Survey within 48 hours, the Standard Survey in 24 to 48 hours and the Premium Survey on the same day.

Leave it or get it looked at?

Before temporary repairs, photograph the damage from ground level if it’s safe. That keeps a record of how it looked. Arranging work in a smaller place like Weybourne is easier with notice than in an emergency. A survey gives you that notice.

Price depends partly on the package: Basic from £150, Standard from £250 or Premium from £400, all with VAT included. Size, height and access can affect the price too.

Why book us in Weybourne

What affects the price in Weybourne

We confirm the price for your roof before you book. These are the things that affect it:

  • House, block, shop or office
  • Whether thermal imaging or a drone is needed
  • The shape of the roof and its details
  • Building height and the viewpoints available

The cost of a survey depends on the roof: how big it is, how high it is, the number of separate roofs and how it can be reached and seen safely. Prices start from £150, including VAT.

Getting in touch

We will usually ask about:

  • Photos of the roof, taken safely from ground level or a window
  • Any marks or damp showing indoors
  • The style of property, from a terrace to a block
  • Why you want a survey: buying, a leak, a storm or new work

For a price for storm damage roof reports in Weybourne, call 07833 053749 or email us. Some details about the property and the roof help us price the survey accurately.

Tips that help

From years of surveys, a few habits stand out as worth the effort:

  • Check how your policy defines a storm
  • Take photos from the ground or a window, never by climbing
  • Keep fallen slates or tiles as evidence if safe
  • Keep receipts for any emergency work

Questions about the findings are always welcome. Standard Surveys come with a follow-up consultation, and Premium Surveys with an in-person one.

Have overhanging branches looked at by a tree surgeon. They can damage the roof in high winds.

How it works

Where it’s relevant and can be reached safely, the loft space is checked as well as the outside. In the loft, the signs we look for are staining, damp, daylight and sagging, as far as the space allows. All in, the survey usually takes about one to two hours on an ordinary house, or half a day or so for a commercial building. A visit to a smaller place like Weybourne is no different on the day: outside, inside and from any safe vantage point, in that order. It is useful to show us anything you’ve already noticed.

  1. First we go through when the storm hit and what you’ve noticed.
  2. We check the roof from wherever it is safe.
  3. We record and photograph the damage.
  4. We note the likely cause and any signs of older wear.
  5. You get a written report to pass to your insurer.

Before we arrive

  • Jot down any questions you want answered
  • Keep pets inside or away from the areas we are looking at
  • If you’re buying, let the agent know when we are coming

Advice

DIY checks: what’s safe

During heavy rain, look at the gutters from the ground or a window. Overflowing water can point to a blockage or a sagging run.

After heavy rain, check ceilings and the tops of walls for new stains. Photograph them and note the date.

Common questions in Weybourne

Is Weybourne in the area you cover?

Yes, Weybourne is within the area we cover. Our area covers London and the South East. You can phone 07833 053749 or use the contact form with the address and a few details.

Will you come out to Weybourne?

Yes, we do. We cover the whole of London and South East England, and smaller places are part of that. Longer journeys are simply planned ahead of time.

Will you go up on the roof?

Not always. Some roofs are too steep or fragile to walk on safely. We use safe viewpoints, the roof space and a drone where it applies, and the report records anything we couldn’t see.

Is there a set wind speed for storm damage?

It depends on your policy. Many use gusts of about 55 mph, but each policy sets its own definition. Check your policy wording.

Who handles emergency protection after a storm?

Emergency temporary protection is a job for a roofer. Photograph the damage first if you can do so safely. We can record the damage in our report.

Is it the same as a RICS Level 2 or Level 3 survey?

No. Our survey looks at the roof, not the whole building. If you need a full building survey, you’ll need a RICS survey as well.

Is wear and tear covered by insurance?

Wear and tear is not typically covered. We describe what looks like fresh storm damage and what looks older. The claim decision is your insurer’s.

What we can’t see

Some things cannot be seen without opening up the roof, and that sets some limits:

  • The work of a loss adjuster appointed by your insurer
  • What’s beneath slates, tiles or membranes
  • A decision on your insurance claim

Wind, rain and roofs in Weybourne

Many older homes in Surrey have handmade clay tiles and tile-hung upper walls. Horsham stone slab roofs survive on some old buildings in Surrey. Knowing the roof type helps narrow down where water may be getting in. The wider area around Weybourne has a long history of building, with Farnham Castle about 1.6 miles south-west. Older roofs in the wider area can hide decades of patch repairs, so the detail matters, and any change of roofing material on a listed home needs checking with the council first.

For landlords with property near Aldershot station, a tenant living with a leak needs the cause found, not just the stain painted over. The streets around a church such as Church of the Ascension are often among the oldest in a place, and if yours is one of the older homes nearby, old mortar, worn lead and slipped slates are the usual suspects when water gets in. Homes near green spaces such as Weybourne LNR can get more leaves in their gutters in autumn.

Weybourne is about 1 mile south-west of Aldershot, in Surrey. Houses, flats, blocks and commercial buildings in Weybourne can all book storm damage roof reports. Across Surrey, we cover Weybourne. For surveys nearby, see our Guildford page.
