What to Do After Storm Damage
The first priority after a storm is making the property safe, not filing paperwork. If you have visible damage, missing tiles, or a leak, call us first, before you call your insurer. We can attend quickly, apply temporary weatherproofing if needed, and document the damage properly with photos and a written assessment.
Most home insurance policies, in line with guidance from the Association of British Insurers, require evidence of the damage and a professional assessment before they’ll approve a claim. Having that report ready before you speak to your insurer, rather than after, tends to make the claims process faster and smoother.
Storm Damage Roof Repair Ealing: Services We Offer
Emergency assessment. We attend quickly after a storm to check the full roof, not just the visible damage, since wind can loosen tiles that haven’t fallen yet.
Temporary weatherproofing. Tarpaulins and temporary repairs to stop further water ingress while the permanent repair or your insurance claim is sorted.
Insurance-ready documentation. A written report with dated photos, describing the damage and the cause, in the format most insurers expect.
Loss adjuster liaison. We can meet your insurer’s loss adjuster on site and answer technical questions directly, so you don’t have to translate roofing terms yourself.
Full repair or replacement. Once your claim is approved, or if you’re proceeding privately, we carry out the repair or replacement to the agreed scope.
Signs of Storm Damage
Missing or slipped tiles and slates. This is the most visible sign, and the most urgent, since it leaves the roof exposed.
A damaged or leaning chimney stack. In particular, high winds can loosen chimney pots and crack flaunching, sometimes without obvious signs from the ground.
Debris on the roof or in the garden. Fallen branches or roof material on the ground is a sign worth checking the roof itself, even if nothing looks wrong from below.
Water ingress after the storm has passed. Damage that wasn’t immediately obvious often shows up as a leak in the days that follow.
Damaged guttering or downpipes. As a result, wind and debris commonly dislodge guttering, which can cause secondary water damage if left unrepaired.
