Storm damage roof report in Worlds End, Hampshire
An independent record of roof damage after a storm for Worlds End, from an experienced roof surveyor. Every survey comes with a written report and photos.
- Cowls or aerials dislodged in the wind
- Loose or torn flashings
- Damage from fallen branches or debris
How a storm damage roof report works in Worlds End
We inspect the roof from wherever it can safely be seen: the ground, windows and vantage points, the loft where there is access, and the roof itself where that is safe. Every area of damage is photographed and described. We note any part we couldn’t see. You get a written report with photos to give to your insurer. If you’ve noticed gaps where slates or tiles have gone and new damp or leaks inside, a survey will tell you what’s going on.
For a small place like Worlds End, the inspection is the same as anywhere: the journey and access are just planned beforehand. It is useful to know where the water appears, in what weather, and what you’ve seen outside, plus any earlier repairs. If you have photographs of the water coming in, they help as well.
You can share the report with anyone who needs it: your solicitor, the seller, your insurer, a roofer or the building’s managing agent, whichever applies.

Roof by roof
Slate roofs
After strong winds, we often see cracked and slipped slates. Each area is photographed and described.
Flat roof coverings
Wind can lift the edges of flat roof coverings or tear them. We record any damage and where it is.
When you need someone else
Our findings are based on what we can see safely on the day, so there are some things a survey can’t cover:
- Your insurer’s view of the claim
- Whether your insurer will pay the claim
- Damage hidden under coverings or inside the structure, without opening up
If you are not sure which survey you need, phone 07833 053749 or use the contact form and we’ll give you a straight answer before booking. The full list of what we check.

Storm damage roof reports in Worlds End: local notes
Worlds End lies within about 4 miles of the sea, and being near the sea means more wind and salt than a roof inland would face. Strong wind lifts anything already loose, and driving rain gets in wherever it can. Listing and conservation areas can both shape what roof work is allowed on an older home. The council is the place to check, along with Historic England’s list.
In and around Worlds End, as anywhere, a roof is easiest to deal with when its problems are found early. If you let a flat or house near Portchester station, a clear finding on where water gets in helps you brief a roofer straight away.

Your questions about storm damage roof reports in Worlds End
Is my home in Worlds End listed or in a conservation area?
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. Listed building consent is needed for changes that affect a listed building’s special interest, and conservation areas can limit changes of roofing material.
Do roofs near the sea, like those around Worlds End, take more of a battering?
Near the coast, roofs face more wind and more salt than further inland. Salt is hard on nails, clips and metal flashings, while strong wind lifts anything already loose.
How experienced are you?
More than 5,000 surveys over 20+ years, across London and South East England.
Can you tell me if my roof has asbestos?
No. We do not carry out asbestos surveys or testing. We flag materials that could contain asbestos, such as cement sheets or soffits on pre-2000 buildings, and recommend a specialist asbestos surveyor checks them before they’re disturbed.
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.
Will you walk on the roof?
Only if it is safe. We inspect what can be seen safely: from ground level, from windows, from inside the loft space, from the roof where it is safe and by drone where applicable. Anything we cannot see is noted in the report.
Does this replace a RICS home survey?
No. We’re experienced roof surveyors, and our survey covers the roof rather than the whole building. For the rest of the building, a RICS home survey is a separate job.
Checking the roof from ground level
The one thing to avoid is getting up close. Roofs are fragile and slippery. That part is for a survey, using safe viewpoints and a drone where it applies.
After strong wind, take a look from the pavement or garden: 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.
What affects the cost of storm damage roof reports

- Commercial roofs and larger buildings

- The shape of the roof and its details

How it works
We will ask a few questions first, like when any problem began and what work has been done before. The inspection then takes about one to two hours for most homes, depending on how much of the roof was hit. Rural addresses near Worlds End can be hard to find from a postcode alone, so a few directions, or a note of a nearby landmark, help us arrive on time. After that, the survey runs as it would anywhere.
- We start with what you’ve seen and any temporary repairs.
- Inside, we look for signs of water in the loft and rooms below.
- The roof is inspected from ground level, windows and the roof where it’s safe.
- We record fresh damage and older defects.
- The report, with photos, is emailed to you.
Getting ready for the survey
- Tell us about parking before the day
