Insurance Claims & Storm Damage Roof Reports

Storm damage can cause sudden and serious issues to a roof, including leaks, displaced coverings, and water ingress. An Insurance Claims & Storm Damage Roof Report provides an independent assessment of roof damage following severe weather and is commonly required to support an insurance claim.

At North West Roof Surveys, we carry out independent storm damage roof inspections for property owners, managing agents, and insurers across Cheshire, Greater Manchester, South Lancashire, Merseyside, and North Lancashire & Cumbria.

Our reports provide clear, factual evidence to help insurers assess claims and understand the condition of the roof at the time of inspection.

What Is a Storm Damage Roof Report?

A Storm Damage Roof Report is a detailed inspection carried out following adverse weather, such as high winds, heavy rainfall, or storms. The inspection focuses on identifying damage that is consistent with sudden weather events.

This may include:

• Displaced, cracked, or missing tiles or slates
• Damage to flashings, ridges, or roof junctions
• Signs of water ingress following storm conditions
• Failures caused by wind uplift or impact

Where access is restricted, camera-equipped drones allow high-level areas to be inspected safely and accurately.

All findings are presented in clear, non-technical language and supported by photographic evidence where appropriate.

Supporting Insurance Claims

Insurers often require independent evidence before progressing or approving a claim. A professional storm damage roof report helps clarify whether damage is consistent with an insured event or whether issues relate to wear and tear or long-term deterioration.

Our reports are commonly used where:

• Storm damage is suspected
• A roof leak has appeared following severe weather
• An insurer has requested further investigation
• A claim has been delayed or queried
• Clear evidence is required to support a claim decision

The report provides insurers with an objective snapshot of the roof’s condition at the time of inspection.
