Prices for storm damage roof reports in Woolpack Corner

To price your survey, we check:

  • Features like valleys, chimneys, dormers and parapets
  • Basic, Standard or Premium
  • Roof area
  • How many separate roofs there are, like extensions, dormers and garages

Larger roofs, taller buildings and commercial roofs take longer, so the price reflects that. You’ll know the figure before booking.

  • The property’s address and postcode
  • Pictures from the garden or a window, if you have them
  • The kind of building and roof involved
  • Any deadline, like an exchange date

Our price is from £150, including VAT. The exact figure depends on the roof and the package, and you can call 07833 053749 or send us an email to find out.

About our storm damage roof report in Woolpack Corner

A storm damage roof report is priced from £150. It’s a photo-illustrated written report, sent 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 damage from fallen branches or debris and damaged flat roof membrane, a survey will tell you what’s going on.

Many homes in small places like Woolpack Corner face open ground, so storms hit ridges, verges and chimneys hard. Once water gets into older walls, it takes a long time to dry, which makes finding the cause quickly worthwhile. A written record also helps if you need to explain it to anyone else.

What you get is a clear record of the roof on the day we saw it. It is useful right away, and a good reference for later, such as when you want to compare after future work.

Checking the roof from the ground

It helps to keep a record: when leaks happen, ground-level photos and any past roof work. Share it with us as you book, as it helps us focus the survey.

What you can’t do safely is get up close. Roofs are fragile and slippery, and falls from height are serious. That’s where a survey comes in.

What we look for on each type of roof

Flat roof coverings

Wind can lift the edges of flat roof coverings or tear them. We record any damage and where it is.

Chimney stacks

High winds can loosen pots, cowls and aerials on stacks. The report notes any damage to the stack.

Leaks and storm damage in Woolpack Corner

Across Kent, older roofs are often handmade clay or peg tiles, and tile-hanging on upper walls is a familiar sight. Kent’s older buildings take in oast houses and timber-framed Wealden hall houses as well. Where water gets in depends a good deal on what the roof is made of and how it’s detailed. About 5 miles south-east lies Smallhythe Place, a reminder of how long the area around Woolpack Corner has been built on. If yours is one of the older homes, expect a mix of original materials and later repairs on the roof, and any change of roofing material on a listed home needs checking with the council first.

If you look after a building such as John Mayne Church of England Primary School, a leak through a large roof is often found some distance from where the water shows inside. Landlords with a home close to Headcorn station may find that a tenant living with a leak needs the cause found, not just the stain painted over.

Woolpack Corner is about 10 miles west of Ashford, in Kent. Bookings from Woolpack Corner are handled just like any other: a call or an email, a price, then a date. Across Kent, we cover Woolpack Corner. There is also a page for Maidstone.

Woolpack Corner questions

Is Woolpack Corner within the area you cover?

Yes, Woolpack Corner is on our map. Villages and rural addresses get the same survey as a town house, with the route planned beforehand.

Do you cover Woolpack Corner?

Yes. We work right across London and the South East, and Woolpack Corner is part of that. Just phone 07833 053749 or email us and tell us about the property.

What does a storm damage report cost?

Storm damage roof report starts from £150, including VAT. Larger or more complex roofs are quoted for their size. Repair costs aren’t included, so ask a roofer to quote.

Does your report mean my claim will be accepted?

The decision is your insurer’s, not ours. We record the damage, with photographs and the likely cause, which you can pass to your insurer.

How long does the survey take?

It normally takes about 1–2 hours on an ordinary house, though large, tall or awkward roofs take more time. You will then get the report by email, on the timescale of your package.

Can you tell me if my roof has asbestos?

No. Asbestos surveys and sampling aren’t something we do. The report may flag materials that could contain asbestos on buildings built or refurbished before 2000, with a recommendation to have a specialist asbestos surveyor check before it is disturbed.

Which days do you carry out surveys?

We survey on any day from Monday to Sunday, during the day. Let us know your preferred days when you book.

What we are asked to look at in Woolpack Corner

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. People usually call us after a storm, once they’ve noticed damage or a leak.

A survey makes sense if you’ve noticed:

  • Gutters pulled loose in the wind
  • Water coming in after the storm
  • Damaged pots on the stack
  • Damage from fallen branches or debris

If you live in an older home near Parish Church of All Saints, lead flashings, valleys and old chimneys are typical places for water to get in.

Before booking anyone

  • Which viewpoints they use to see the roof
  • Which limits apply to the survey
  • Are they insured for the work?
  • Their track record with similar roofs

What’s in a roof survey

What happens on the day

The visit usually starts outside and finishes in the loft: outside views come first, then the roof space if there is safe access. All told, expect roughly 1–2 hours for most houses, and more on a big or complicated roof. Somewhere like Woolpack Corner needs a little journey planning: let us know about narrow lanes, gates, long drives and where we can park. The roof is looked at from ground level, from windows, from the loft where there is safe access and from the roof where it is safe.

  1. You let us know what happened and whether a roofer has made the roof safe.
  2. We check inside, including the loft where there is access, for water damage.
  3. We view the roof from safe positions.
  4. We record fresh damage and older defects.
  5. The report, with photos, is emailed to you.

Before we arrive

  • Mention any parking restrictions on your street
  • Make a note of anything you’d like us to look at
  • Buyers: confirm access with the estate agent or seller
