Common Storm Damage
What We Often See After Bad Weather
Slipped & Blown-Off Tiles
Strong winds can lift, slip or remove tiles and slates.
Loose Ridges & Verges
The edges and ridge line take the worst of the wind.
Lifted Flashings
Lead around chimneys and walls can be pulled away or torn.
Damaged Flat Roofs
Felt can lift, tear or be punctured by debris.
Fascias, Soffits & Gutters
Wind can pull these away from the roof edge.
Chimney Damage
Pots, cowls and the stack itself can be damaged.
What To Do If Your Roof Is Damaged
- Keep safe. Do not climb onto the roof. Stay out of rooms where water is coming through or the ceiling is bulging.
- Limit the damage inside. Move belongings, and use buckets or towels for drips.
- Take photos. Photograph the damage from the ground and any water damage inside, with dates if you can.
- Keep any damaged materials that have fallen, as your insurer may want to see them.
- Call us. We will assess the damage and arrange the repair needed to make the roof weathertight.
Insurance Claims
Home insurance often covers sudden damage from a storm, but not wear and tear. Every policy is different, so check yours for what is covered and any excess.
- Contact your insurer as soon as you can, and follow their process
- Photographs and a written quotation for the repair help support a claim
- Ask your insurer whether they need a quote before work starts
- Keep receipts for any emergency measures
We can provide a written quotation for the repair work, which you can pass on to your insurer. We cannot guarantee the outcome of any claim, as that is a decision for your insurer.
Why Acting Quickly Helps
A small amount of storm damage can become a big problem once water gets in, with soaked insulation, damaged ceilings and rotten timbers. Getting the roof made weathertight early limits the damage and the cost.
