What we do, step by step
After the inspection, everything we found is written up in a report with photos. As for time on site, it typically takes about 1–2 hours for most homes, depending on how much of the roof was hit. Older rural homes like those around Woodgreen can have a main roof, lower lean-to roofs and outbuildings all joined together. We work round each section in turn, from the safest viewpoints, and anything we cannot see is noted.
- You let us know what happened and whether a roofer has made the roof safe.
- We check inside, including the loft where there’s access, for water damage.
- We view the roof from safe positions.
- Storm damage and older wear are recorded separately where we can.
- The report, with photos, is emailed to you.
How to prepare
- Tell us about parking before the day
- Leave a clear route to the loft
- Gather any invoices or paperwork from past roof work

Storm damage roof report in Woodgreen
A storm damage roof report is priced from £150. You get a written report with photos by email. It doesn’t price the repairs, so you’ll need a roofer’s quote for that. The insurer may still send a loss adjuster of its own. Our report gives you an independent record of the damage and its likely cause. If you’ve noticed torn or lifted flat roof coverings and lifted or missing ridge and hip tiles, a survey will tell you what’s going on.
In a village or hamlet like Woodgreen, older cottages and farmhouses frequently have roofs that have been patched over many years. A new leak may be fresh damage or the latest sign of long-term wear, and the difference matters, especially to an insurer. The report says what was seen and what it points to. Damp in old walls and timbers is slow to dry, so the sooner the cause is found the better.
You receive the findings by email, easy to pass on to a roofer, an agent or an insurer. Turnaround is within 48 hours for Basic, 24–48 hours for Standard and same day for Premium.

Knowing whether older wear played a part helps you understand your position. We record storm damage and older defects, so there are no surprises later. In a small place like Woodgreen, homes can be exposed to wind and rain, which finds any gap, and damp in older walls is slow to dry out.

Leaks and storm damage in Woodgreen
Thatch survives on some older buildings in Hampshire’s villages. Older houses in the South East often have slate or clay tile roofs, while many later estates have concrete tiles. Knowing the roof type helps narrow down where water may be getting in. About 1.5 miles north-west lies Breamore House, a reminder of how long the area around Woodgreen has been built on. On older houses around here, roofs often carry the marks of earlier repairs, from replaced slates to new lead, and a listed home or one in a conservation area may need consent for changes of material.
For site and facilities teams at buildings such as Breamore Church of England Primary School, tracing a leak on a big roof starts with where the water appears and works back.

What we are asked to look at in Woodgreen
A storm often finds a roof’s existing weak spots. Corroded nails on slate roofs, worn mortar on ridges and old flashings can all give way. We record recent damage alongside older defects.
It is worth booking a survey if you’ve seen:
- Ridge tiles that have come loose
- New damp or leaks inside
- Damage from fallen branches or debris
- Damaged pots on the stack
If you live in an older home near St Boniface, lead flashings, valleys and old chimneys are typical places for water to get in.
Before you book anyone
- Whether the loft space is looked at, where there is one
- What the survey won’t cover
- Their track record with similar roofs
- What insurance they carry
DIY checks: what’s safe
Watch the gutters in a downpour, from a window or the ground. Water spilling over the edge can be a sign of a blockage or a gutter that has dropped.
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 the ground.
Your questions about storm damage roof reports in Woodgreen
Is Woodgreen in the area you cover?
Yes, Woodgreen is within the area we cover. We survey roofs across London and South East England. Just call 07833 053749 or send us an email and let us know about the property.
Do you cover smaller places like Woodgreen?
Yes, Woodgreen is on our map. Villages and rural addresses get the same survey as a town house.
Do you need to get into the loft?
If the survey needs it and the roof space can be reached safely, yes. Please clear anything stored under the hatch.
Is wear and tear covered by insurance?
Most policies don’t cover wear and tear. Our report records storm damage and any older wear we see, so you know what the roof shows. Your insurer decides how its policy applies.
Can you tell me if my roof has asbestos?
No. We don’t sample or test for asbestos. The report may flag materials that could contain asbestos on buildings built or refurbished before 2000.
Can I challenge a declined storm claim?
Raise it with your insurer first. The Financial Ombudsman Service may look at it if that does not resolve it. The Ombudsman asks about storm conditions, whether the damage is consistent with a storm and whether the storm was the main cause.
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, which you can pass to your insurer.
Landlords, agents and block managers in Woodgreen
Shared roofs need a little more planning: we need access agreed with whoever owns or manages the building. Tell us about it when booking and we will plan the survey around it.
An agent can book and manage the survey for a landlord, with the report sent to whoever needs it. Access is agreed with the tenant in advance.
What a survey costs
Prices vary from roof to roof, and it comes down to:
- Which survey package you book
- How big the roof is
- Features like valleys, chimneys, dormers and parapets
- The type of building, from a house to a block or an office
There are three survey packages: the Basic Survey from £150, the Standard Survey from £250 and the Premium Survey from £400, all with VAT included. The price for your roof depends on its size, access and what you want to find out.
Helping us price your survey
We’ll typically ask about:
- Photos of the roof, taken safely from the ground or a window
- The reason for the survey, like buying, a leak or storm damage
- Where any leaks, stains or damp patches show inside
- What kind of property and roof it is
We confirm the price for your roof before booking, so you know the cost up front. Storm damage roof report starts from £150, including VAT. To book, ring 07833 053749 or drop us an email.
