What we look for on each type of roof

Flashings can lift or pull away from walls and chimneys in strong winds. Loose or damaged flashings are photographed and noted.
Storm damage roof report in Wraysbury
If your roof has been damaged, stay safe first. Photograph the damage from the ground or a window, and never climb up. Emergency temporary protection, such as covering an opening, is a job for a roofer. Our report records the damage so you have an independent record to give your insurer. Keep receipts for any emergency work. If you’ve noticed damaged flat roof membrane and new damp or leaks inside, a survey will tell you what’s going on.
In a smaller place like Wraysbury, 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’s a useful clue. It is useful to know when and where the water appears. Gutters and downpipes on the exposed side are worth a look as well.
The Standard Survey adds moisture detection, a structural check and a follow-up consultation. The Premium Survey goes further, with thermal imaging, drone inspection where applicable, structural analysis and an in-person consultation.

Wraysbury: your questions answered
Is Wraysbury in the area you cover?
We do. Every survey there gets the same written report with photographs.
Is my home in Wraysbury listed or in a conservation area?
For listing, use Historic England’s list; for conservation areas, ask the council. The answer matters most when a change of material is on the cards.
What’s the best way to book?
Just ring 07833 053749 or email us. After a few questions, we confirm the price and fix a day.
Is this a RICS survey?
No. Our survey looks at the roof, not the whole building. For the rest of the building, a RICS home survey is a separate job.
Can you inspect my roof with a drone?
Yes, where it’s applicable. We hold a CAA Flyer ID and Operator ID and fly a drone under 250g, and every flight depends on the airspace and the weather.
Do you survey roofs on blocks of flats?
Yes. A shared roof needs access agreed first. Tell us about it when you book and we will explain what’s needed.
Can I check the roof after a storm?
Stay off the roof. Photograph the damage from below or from a window. Record the date and any damage inside as well.
Surveys for landlords and agents in Wraysbury
Businesses and commercial landlords can book us too, from shops and offices to industrial units. Bigger roofs take more time, so they’re priced to suit.
If you own several properties, you can book surveys for several addresses. To arrange surveys for several addresses, ring 07833 053749 or send us an email.
Before and after the survey
A little preparation and a few simple habits help, both for the survey and for the roof itself. Our tips:
- Keep any slates, tiles or debris that fall, if it’s safe to do so
- Tell your insurer about the damage promptly
- Note the date and time you first saw the damage
- Take photos of stains and damp inside
Once we have been, the findings are written up with photos. 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.
Store invoices and reports for any roof work. They help show the roof was in good order before a storm.
Storm damage roof reports in Wraysbury: local notes
Frogmore House, about 1.8 miles north-west, is one of the historic houses in the wider area around Wraysbury. Older homes in the wider area frequently have features worth a closer look, such as lead valleys, tall stacks and roofs that have been patched over the years, and any change of roofing material on a listed home needs checking with the council first. Older houses across Surrey often have handmade clay tiles, and many have tile-hanging. Some old buildings in Surrey and Sussex have Horsham stone slab roofs. The covering and its details give the first clues when tracing where water is coming from.
For landlords with property near Sunnymeads station, finding the cause of a leak fast keeps a tenant’s home dry and the work focused. Take an older house close to Church of St Andrew: leaks on older roofs often start at lead flashings, valleys or around old chimney stacks. For site and facilities teams at buildings such as Wraysbury Primary School, on a building that size, finding the source of a drip means looking well beyond the stain.
