What happens if roof problems are left?
A clear, independent record helps you explain the damage to your insurer. It sets out what we found and the likely cause, so you are not relying only on your own photos. Around Wingham Green, older homes often have old roof timbers, and water through a failed covering can rot timber if it is left.

About our storm damage roof report in Wingham Green
If your roof has been damaged, stay safe first. Photograph the damage from the ground or a window, and never climb up. Emergency temporary protection, such as covering an opening, is a job for a roofer. We then record the damage in a report you can pass to your insurer. Keep receipts for any emergency work. We are often asked to look into damaged gutters and fascias and holes or cracks caused by debris, across flashings, gutters and fascias and ridges and hips.
Being in a small place like Wingham Green makes no difference to how a leak or storm damage is looked at: we simply plan the journey and access ahead. It is useful to know where the water appears, in what weather, and what you’ve seen outside, along with any repairs done before. If you have photos of the water coming in, they help as well.
What you get is a clear record of the roof on the day we saw it. That makes it useful now and a handy reference later.

For landlords and managing agents
Managing agents and residents’ management companies use roof surveys to plan maintenance. The report sets out what needs attention now and what can wait, which helps when budgeting.
We survey roofs for landlords and letting agents as well as householders. The report gives you a dated record of the roof, with photographs.
Storm damage roof reports around Wingham Green
Across Kent, older roofs are often handmade clay or peg tiles, and tile-hanging on upper walls is a familiar sight. Oast houses and timber-framed Wealden hall houses are part of the county’s older buildings too. Different coverings let water in at different points, which shapes where the search starts. With Goodnestone Park about 2.1 miles south-east, Wingham Green sits in an area with a long building history. Period homes nearby can have lead valleys, tall chimneys and a patchwork of past repairs, and the council can say whether a home is in a conservation area.
The streets around a church such as St Mary's Church are frequently among the oldest in a place, and if your home is one of the older ones nearby, old mortar, worn lead and slipped slates are the usual suspects when water gets in. For site and facilities teams at buildings such as Wingham Primary School, on a building that size, finding the source of a drip means looking well beyond the stain.

Before and after the survey
Here are a few things we’d tell any owner:
- Do not go onto the roof to take pictures
- Report the damage to your insurer as soon as you can
- Arrange temporary cover with a roofer if rain is getting in
- Keep fallen slates or tiles as evidence if safe
Questions about the findings are always welcome. The Standard Survey includes a follow-up consultation and the Premium Survey an in-person consultation.
After a storm, look at the roof from the street or garden. With binoculars, you can often spot problems without climbing. Never climb onto the roof yourself.
What happens on the day
A survey visit follows a simple order: we hear what you’ve seen, look at the roof from every safe viewpoint, photograph what we find and record our findings for the written report. Most visits take roughly 1–2 hours for most homes, depending on how much of the roof was hit. Around Wingham Green, older homes can have small or awkward roof spaces, so let us know about the loft hatch and any ladder. We only go where it is safe.
- First you give us the date of the storm and what you’ve noticed, inside and out.
- We view the roof from wherever it can safely be seen, including the loft where there’s access.
- Each area of damage is photographed and described.
- We note the likely cause, including any signs of wear that were there before the storm.
- We send you a written report with photos, ready to give to your insurer.
Preparing for the visit
- Keep pets out of the way during the survey
- Let us know where we can park nearby
- Make a note of anything you’d like us to look at
Booking a survey

Your questions about storm damage roof reports in Wingham Green
Do you cover Wingham Green?
We do. The survey and report are the same in Wingham Green as anywhere else, and visits run on weekdays and weekends.
Does a conservation area affect roof work in Wingham Green?
You can check whether a building is listed on Historic England’s list, and your council can tell you if it’s in a conservation area. 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.
I live in a flat. Can you survey the roof?
Yes, if the freeholder or managing agent agrees access. On a shared roof we can only inspect the parts we’re allowed to reach, and the report makes that clear.
Is this an asbestos survey?
No. Asbestos surveys and testing are not part of what we do. If we see materials that could contain asbestos, such as cement roof sheets or soffits on buildings from before 2000, we flag them.
What does a storm damage report cost?
Our reports start from £150. Commercial and larger roofs are quoted on size. Repair costs are not part of the report.
Do I have to be there for the survey?
Not always. If we only need the outside, we can agree that beforehand, but the loft and any rooms with damp need someone to let us in.
Is there a set wind speed for storm damage?
Each policy has its own definition. Many treat gusts of about 55 mph as storm conditions, but check your own wording.

Common roof problems in Wingham Green
Some people book because a claim has been questioned. You get an independent record of what the roof shows. What happens next is up to the insurer.
These are some of the problems a survey can pick up:
- Damaged gutters and fascias
- Loose or broken chimney pots and cowls
- Flat roof edges peeled back
- Lifted or missing ridge and hip tiles
If you let a flat or house near Adisham station, a clear finding on where water gets in helps you brief a roofer right away.
What to check before booking
- Whether the inside of the roof is included
- Their report turnaround times
- How much experience they have with roofs like yours
- Whether you can ask questions once you have the report
Checking the roof from ground level
Your own check is a good start, but it is not a survey. You will not see flashings, valleys or the backs of chimneys properly from ground level.
After strong wind, take a look from the pavement or garden: pieces of tile or slate on the ground, a gap in the ridge or a lifted flashing are all worth noting. Do not go up yourself.
