Types of Storm Damage We Repair

Wind Damage

High winds cause various roof problems, such as:

● Lifted or missing tiles
● Damaged ridge and hip tiles
● Loose or torn flat roof coverings
● Damaged flashings
● Broken slates
● Failed leadwork

Wind damage often looks minor from ground level but leaves roofs vulnerable to water penetration.

Rain Damage

Heavy persistent rain finds every weakness:

● Overwhelms damaged flashings
● Exposes poor valley details
● Highlights blocked gutters
● Reveals tile problems
● Tests flat roof seams

Rain rarely causes initial damage, but it reveals existing problems and can worsen wind damage..

Fallen Trees & Branches

Trees near properties pose storm risks:

● Fallen branches puncturing roofs
● Whole trees damaging roof structures
● Debris blocking gutters and valleys
● Damage to chimneys

We make tree-damaged roofs safe and arrange permanent repairs.

Lightning Damage

Direct lightning strikes are rare but cause severe damage. We repair lightning-damaged roofs and work with insurance companies on claims.

Structural Damage

Collapsed roof sections or major structural problems need immediate professional attention for safety and to prevent further damage..

Common Storm Damage Scenarios

Post-Storm Leaks

Your roof survived the storm visually but is now leaking. Wind often lifts tiles without removing them completely, breaking the weather seal. We locate and fix these problems.

Multiple Missing Tiles

High winds remove multiple tiles, leaving large exposed areas. We provide emergency coverage then source matching tiles for permanent repairs.

Ridge Damage

Ridge tiles are particularly vulnerable to wind. Loose or missing ridges need prompt attention - we make safe then re-bed ridges properly.

Chimney Damage

Storms damage chimney stacks, pots, and flashings. We repair structural damage and make chimneys weatherproof.

Flat Roof Failures

Wind can tear or lift flat roof coverings. We patch damage temporarily then schedule complete repairs.

We regularly handle insurance work for storm damage:

Documentation We Provide

● Detailed damage reports

● Photographic evidence

● Itemised repair quotes

● Technical specifications

● Progress updates

We help with the claims process:

● Explain what's covered

● Provide documentation insurers need

● Work with loss adjusters

Preventing Storm Damage

Regular Inspections

Professional roof inspections identify vulnerabilities before storms hit. We check:

● Loose tiles

● Weak flashings

● Cracked pointing

● Damaged ridges

Proactive Repairs

Addressing small problems before storm season prevents expensive storm damage.

Tree Management

Keep trees trimmed away from roofs. Remove dead branches. Consider removing trees that overhang roofs significantly.

Gutter Maintenance

Clean gutters handle storm water better. Regular gutter cleaning [/services/gutter-cleaning.html] prevents overflow and reduces damage risk.

Older Roofs

If your roof is 40+ years old, consider proactive replacement. Older roofs are more vulnerable to storm damage.

Emergency vs Non-Emergency Storm Damage

Emergency Situations

Call immediately for:

● Large sections of missing roof covering

● Water pouring into property

● Structural damage

● Dangerous loose materials

These need same-day or next-day response.

Urgent But Not Emergency

Some storm damage is urgent but can wait 24-48 hours:

● Small number of missing tiles

● Minor flashing damage

● Superficial ridge problems

We still respond quickly but prioritise true emergencies first.

Our emergency roofing service [/services/emergency-roofing.html] handles genuine emergencies.

After Major Storms

After severe storms affecting many properties, demand for roofers peaks. In these situations:

● We prioritise by severity of damage

● Emergency situations get immediate response

● Less urgent work may have short delays

● We keep you informed of timescales

We always respond as quickly as possible.

Cost Considerations

Insurance Coverage

Most home insurance policies cover storm damage. Check your policy details or call your insurer.

Excess Payments

You'll typically pay your insurance excess. This is often £100-250 depending on your policy.

Non-Insured Work

If you're not claiming insurance or damage isn't covered, we provide clear quotes for all work.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: Is storm damage covered by insurance?

A: Most home insurance policies cover storm damage. Check your policy or call your insurer. We provide all documentation needed for claims.

Q: How quickly can you respond to storm damage?

A: For genuine emergencies, we typically attend within 2-4 hours during the day, or first thing the following morning. After major storms affecting many properties, we prioritise by damage severity.

Q: Will you work directly with my insurance company?

A: Yes, we regularly work with insurance companies. We can communicate directly with insurers and loss adjusters if needed.

Q: What if the storm revealed existing problems not caused by the storm?

A: Insurance covers storm damage, not pre-existing problems. We're honest about what's storm damage and what's general wear. Pre-existing issues need separate quotes.

Q: Can you prevent future storm damage?

A: Regular maintenance and addressing weaknesses reduces storm vulnerability. We can inspect your roof and advise on preventative measures.

Q: Do I need to get multiple quotes for insurance work?

A: Insurance companies sometimes request multiple quotes. We're happy to quote whether you're getting other quotes or not.
