Leaks and storm damage in Worcester Park
Alongside Victorian and Edwardian terraces, outer London has a great many interwar semis, often with hipped roofs of clay or concrete tiles. Bay roofs, hip ridges and dormers from later loft conversions are the details that set these houses apart. Each of these roof types has its own typical places for water to get in. About 1.5 miles south lies Fitznells Manor, a reminder of how long the area around Worcester Park has been built on. If your house is among the older ones, expect a mix of original materials and later repairs on the roof.
Anyone responsible for a site like Cuddington Community Primary 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. If you own a rental within reach of Worcester Park station, a tenant living with a leak needs the cause found, not just the stain painted over. Living close to Hogsmill LNR is pleasant, but mature trees mean leaves in gutters and valleys each autumn, and an overflowing gutter soon means a wet wall.

How a storm damage roof report works in Worcester Park
Wear and tear is typically excluded from home insurance. That makes the difference between storm damage and old wear important. Our report records both: fresh breaks and recently moved slates or tiles, and older problems such as corroded nails or worn mortar. We give an honest view of what we see. How the policy applies is for your insurer to decide. We survey gutters and fascias, ridges and hips and flashings, and the problems we’re asked to look at most are flat roof edges peeled back and cowls or aerials dislodged in the wind.
London’s Victorian and Edwardian roofs have often been repaired many times. Telling wear from a one-off event matters, because insurers usually exclude wear and tear. That’s as true in Worcester Park as anywhere in London. Photos and a written account give you something specific to show an insurer, a landlord or a roofer.
The report records the roof as we found it on the day. That makes it useful now and a handy reference later, such as when you want to compare after future work.

What happens on the day
We check the roof from outside and, where it is relevant and there’s safe access, from inside the roof space too. In the loft, the signs we look for are staining, damp, daylight and sagging. All in, the survey typically takes about 1–2 hours for most homes, depending on how much of the roof was hit. From the street, a London terrace normally shows only its front slope or parapet, so a visit in Worcester Park moves between viewpoints: the pavement, upstairs windows, the loft and any safe spot at the back. Shared stairs or a basement flat? Tell us who holds the keys.
- 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 the ground, windows and the roof where it is safe.
- Storm damage and older wear are recorded separately where we can.
- You receive the written report with photographs.
Before we arrive
- Have any questions written down, so nothing gets missed
- Check pets are kept safely away
- Make sure we can get to the back of the property

Advice
How the survey changes by roof type
Flat roof coverings
Branches and debris can damage flat roofs or block outlets. Any damage is recorded with photos.
Clay and concrete tiles
Broken or missing tiles leave the underlay exposed to rain. Each gap is recorded with a photo.
What a storm damage roof report doesn’t cover
This is not a RICS building survey, a structural engineer’s report or an asbestos survey. It also has these limits:
- What’s beneath slates, tiles or membranes
- Negotiating a claim settlement
- Repair costs or quotes for the work
If in doubt, phone 07833 053749 or use the contact form and we will recommend the right survey before you book. The full list of what we check.
What we check
- Chimney stacks
- Ridges and hips
- Flashings
- Slate and tile slopes
- Gutters and fascias
- Flat roofs
Should I look at the roof myself first?
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. Leave anything above ground level to a survey.
If you have a loft with safe access, take a look inside. Use a torch and stay on the joists or boards, checking for stains, damp wood or chinks of daylight.
What affects the price in Worcester Park
Prices always include VAT. What changes the price is:
- Chimneys, valleys, parapets and other details
- Commercial roofs and larger buildings
- Whether you choose the Basic, Standard or Premium Survey
- The use of thermal imaging or a drone
Our price is from £150, including VAT. The final price depends on the size and height of the roof, access and the package you choose.
Booking your survey
The more you let us know, the easier it is to price the survey. When you contact us, tell us:
- What kind of property and roof it is
- Access details, such as a loft hatch or a shared roof
- Any deadline, such as an exchange date
- Your postcode, so we can check access and travel
Most bookings start with a short call: call 07833 053749 or drop us an email and we will ask a few questions about the roof. You will have a price before anything is arranged.
Common questions in Worcester Park
Is Worcester Park in the area you cover?
Yes, Worcester Park is one of the places we work. The survey and report are the same in Worcester Park as anywhere else.
Does a conservation area affect roof work in Worcester Park?
Historic England’s list shows listed buildings, and the local council can tell you about conservation areas. 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.
How experienced are you?
We have completed more than 5,000 surveys, across 20+ years of surveying roofs, and 98% of customers are satisfied.
Is this an asbestos survey?
No. Our report may flag materials that could contain asbestos, but confirming it is a job for a specialist asbestos surveyor. Buildings built or refurbished before 2000 may contain it.
How do I arrange a storm damage roof report in Worcester Park?
To arrange a survey, call 07833 053749 or email us and tell us the address and what you need to know. We’ll confirm the price and agree a day with you.
Do you look in the roof space?
If there is a loft and safe access to it, yes. From inside, the underside of the roof often shows damp, staining or daylight that can’t be seen from outside.
What does a storm damage report cost?
Our reports start from £150. Commercial and larger roofs are quoted on size. Repair costs aren’t part of the report.
Before and after the survey
Here are a few things we’d tell any owner:
- Do not go onto the roof to take pictures
- Check your policy for how to report damage
- Keep a note of the date of the storm
- Arrange temporary cover with a roofer if rain is getting in
You will need a roofer’s quote for the repairs. They can use our report to see what needs doing.
Keep the roof in good order between storms. Fix slipped slates, loose ridges and lifted flashings when you spot them.
