What you can safely check yourself
Watch the gutters in a downpour, from a window or the ground. Overflowing water can be a sign of a blockage or a gutter that has dropped.
Look up at the roof after a storm, from the ground: broken slates or tiles in the garden, gaps along the ridge or loose lead are signs to note. Leave anything above ground level to a survey.
Storm damage roof reports for homes and businesses in Winnall
After a storm, it’s useful to have a clear record of what happened to your roof. We photograph the damage, describe it and note whether it fits storm damage, older wear or both. We’re not loss adjusters and cannot tell you if your claim will succeed. What you get is an independent view of the roof’s condition. If you’ve noticed slates and tiles blown off the roof and stains appearing after strong winds, we can find out what’s behind it, on flashings, flat roofs and gutters and fascias alike.
In a smaller place like Winnall, some roofs face open ground, where driving rain gets into any gap at a ridge, verge or flashing. If a leak shows only when the wind is in a certain direction, that is a useful clue. It helps to know when and where the water appears. Gutters and downpipes on the exposed side are worth a look as well.
The report does not just list problems. For each finding, it explains what it is, why it matters and what we’d recommend, so you can plan your next steps.

Why get it checked now?
Knowing whether older wear played a part helps you understand your position. Our report gives an honest view of both, so you know what the roof shows. In an older home around Winnall, water from a roof defect can get into timber and plaster, which is far harder to put right than the roof fault itself.
Bigger, taller and commercial roofs take more time to survey, so the price reflects that. You’ll know the figure before booking.

Your questions about storm damage roof reports in Winnall
Do you cover smaller places like Winnall?
We do. Villages and rural addresses get the same survey as a town house, with the route planned beforehand.
How do I find out if my home in Winnall is listed?
We cannot confirm that for you, but Historic England’s list and your council can. A change of roofing material may need consent in either case, and councils can also use Article 4 directions.
What if the roof was already worn?
Wear and tear is not typically covered. Our report gives an honest view of what’s recent damage and what’s older wear. Your insurer decides the claim.
Does someone need to be in?
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.
How do I book a survey in Winnall?
Just phone 07833 053749 or use the contact form with the address. We’ll ask a few questions, confirm the price and agree a date.
Will you check the loft?
Typically, if there is one and it can be reached safely. From inside, the underside of the roof often shows damp, staining or daylight that can’t be seen from outside.
Can you survey a shared roof?
Yes, if the building owner or managing agent agrees access. On a shared roof we can only inspect the parts we’re allowed to reach.
Practical tips
Over many surveys, some simple habits stand out as worth the effort:
- File receipts for anything you pay for
- Check how your policy defines a storm
- Note the date and time you first saw the damage
- Tell your insurer about the damage promptly
After the visit, we write up the report with photographs of each area of damage. It covers the damage, its likely cause and any older defects. Turnaround is within 48 hours for Basic, 24 to 48 hours for Standard and the same day for Premium.
Keep gutters and outlets clear so heavy rain can drain away. Overflowing gutters can make storm damage worse.
What a survey costs
Prices always include VAT. The things that change the price are:

- The shape of the roof and its details
Every price we give includes VAT, and the report is not charged as an extra. Storm damage roof report starts from £150, including VAT. Where your roof sits in the range depends on its size, height and access.

Winnall roofs and the weather
Thatch survives on some older buildings in Hampshire’s villages. Slate and clay tile are the usual coverings on older South East houses, with concrete tiles on many later estates. Different coverings let water in at different points, which shapes where the search starts. If your home is older, it’s worth knowing whether it is listed or in a conservation area before planning roof work. Listed building consent covers changes to a listed building’s special interest, and an Article 4 direction can bring extra controls in a conservation area.
A roof leak in a hotel or guest house around Winnall means lost rooms as well as repairs, so it is worth knowing the roof’s condition. Take a building like Winnall Primary School: on a building that size, finding the source of a drip means looking well beyond the stain. Landlords with a home close to Winchester station may find that tracing a leak quickly matters when a tenant is living with it.

How it works
When we arrive, we start by asking what you’ve noticed and what you’d like to know. After that, we look at everything we can see safely, using the ground, windows, the loft and a drone where it applies. The survey typically takes roughly 1–2 hours on an ordinary house, with bigger or more complicated roofs taking longer. With a bit of garden around a house, as there frequently is around Winnall, the roof can be viewed from several angles. Let us know if any side is fenced off or hard to reach. Inside, the loft is checked where it can be reached safely.
- First we go through when the storm hit and what you’ve noticed.
- We check the roof from wherever it’s safe.
- 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.
