How a storm damage roof report works in Whiteley Village
Our storm damage report gives you an independent, written record of how a storm has affected your roof. We record each area of damage, photograph it and note the likely cause. It’s yours to pass to your insurer. Insurers decide claims on their own policy wording. We are not loss adjusters, and we cannot tell you whether a claim will succeed. If you’ve noticed water coming in after the storm and loose or torn flashings, we can find out what’s behind it.
For a small place like Whiteley Village, the inspection is the same as anywhere: the journey and access are just planned ahead of time. Let us know where the water shows, when it appears and anything you’ve noticed outside, along with any repairs done before. Photographs of the stain and of the roof from outside are helpful too.
After the visit, you get a written report with photos, sent by email. It explains the condition of the roof, the defects we found and what we recommend.

What we are asked to look at in Whiteley Village
Strong winds lift loose or poorly fixed slates and tiles, ridge pieces and flashings. Rain can then blow in where slates or tiles have gone. Most people book a report soon after a storm, when they’ve seen damage or water has come in.
Common reasons to book include:
- Torn or lifted flat roof coverings
- New damp or leaks inside
- Slipped or missing slates or tiles
- Lifted or missing ridge and hip tiles
Anyone responsible for a site like Notre Dame Senior School will know that water through a big roof can travel a long way before it drips, so the search covers more than the obvious spot.
Questions to ask before you book
- Whether VAT is in the quoted price
- What exactly goes into their report
- How much experience they have with roofs like yours
- Their drone registration, if they fly one
Prices for storm damage roof reports in Whiteley Village
Prices always include VAT. What changes the price is:
- The use of thermal imaging or a drone
- How many separate roofs there are, such as extensions, dormers and garages
- Commercial roofs and larger buildings
- The height of the building and how the roof can be seen safely
A small, low roof with good viewpoints takes less time than a tall, complicated one, and the package you pick makes a difference too. We will give you the figure before anything is booked.

What we do, step by step
Time on site depends on the size and shape of the roof; as a rough guide, the survey takes between one and two hours for most homes, depending on how much of the roof was hit. If you have questions on the day, just ask. Cottages and farmhouses around Whiteley Village often have roofs at several levels, with lean-tos and outbuildings attached. Each part is looked at from wherever it can safely be seen.
- We start with what you’ve seen and any temporary repairs.
- We check inside, including the loft where there’s access, for water damage.
- The roof is inspected from ground level, windows and the roof where it is safe.
- Storm damage and older wear are recorded separately where we can.
- The report, with photos, is emailed to you.
Preparing for the visit
- Keep pets inside or away from the areas we are looking at
- Dig out any old roof reports or invoices
- Leave a clear route to the loft
Getting a price
Photos help, if you have them. Take them safely from ground level or a window. To send them or to book, phone 07833 053749 or email us.

DIY checks: what’s safe
Watch the gutters in a downpour, from a window or the ground. Overflowing water can point to a blockage or a sagging run.
The one thing to avoid is getting up close. Slates, tiles, flat roofs and rooflights can give way. That part is for a survey, using safe viewpoints and a drone where applicable.
Roof by roof
Clay and concrete tiles
Tiles can lift, crack or blow off in high winds. We record which are damaged and where.
Slate roofs
Natural slate can last 100 years or more, but the nails often fail first. The report records whether slipped slates look like storm damage or older wear.
Your questions about storm damage roof reports in Whiteley Village

Yes, Whiteley Village is one of the places we work. The survey and report are the same in Whiteley Village as anywhere else, and visits run on weekdays and weekends.
How do I find out if my home in Whiteley Village is listed?
Start with Historic England’s list for listing and your council for conservation areas. It is worth checking before planning roof work, as both can affect what’s allowed.
How long is the visit?
Most surveys take an hour or two for a house, while a commercial roof takes nearer three to four hours. We will confirm the timing when booking.
Who handles emergency protection after a storm?
A roofer should handle temporary protection. If it is safe, take photos before it goes on. We can record the damage in our report.
Will you deal with the insurance company for me?
No. We’re not loss adjusters, and we do not negotiate claims. We give you an independent report of the damage, which you can pass to your insurer.

What if the roof was already worn?
Wear and tear is not normally covered. Our report gives an honest view of what’s recent damage and what’s older wear. The claim decision is your insurer’s.
