Storm Damage Roof Repairs in Portsmouth & Hampshire
Same-day make-safe and proper repair after named storms and high winds. Photographic reports for your insurer included.
Storm damage roof repairs are part of the rhythm of working on the South Coast. Every named storm that crosses the Solent — Eunice, Ciarán, Isha — leaves us with a week of callouts: lifted ridge tiles, slipped slates, peeled lead flashings, blown-off ridge caps and water finding its way through 60-year-old underlay. We attend storm-damaged roofs across Portsmouth, Gosport, Fareham, Havant, Hayling Island and the wider Hampshire coast on a same-day basis during working hours, and we make safe before we leave the site — properly battened tarps, lifted ridges secured, missing tiles swapped from van stock where the profile matches. Every storm-damage attendance comes with photographs you can send straight to your insurer, a written report describing what we found and what we did, and a follow-up quote for the proper permanent repair. We do not inflate storm work for insurance jobs — the price is the price, and we'll tell you honestly whether it's worth claiming or whether the excess makes a private repair the better option.
What we fix after a storm
Wind-lifted ridge tiles
The most common storm callout in coastal Hampshire. Cement-bedded ridges from the 1960s-90s are particularly vulnerable. Re-bedded or upgraded to dry-fix.
Missing and slipped tiles
Single tiles through to whole sections. We carry common concrete and clay profiles on the van for same-day swaps.
Lifted lead flashings
Chimney, abutment and valley flashings often peel back in high wind. Re-dressed properly in code 4 lead, mechanically clipped.
Blown-off chimney pots and cowls
Made safe immediately. Replacement pots flaunched in within 48 hours where stock matches.
Storm leaks and water ingress
Internal water staining traced from above and below. Temporary patches that actually work, followed by permanent repair.
Tarp-overs and emergency make-safe
Heavy-duty tarp battened over the damaged area to keep the property watertight while a permanent repair is scheduled.
Fallen tree damage
Roofs damaged by branches and full tree falls. We work alongside tree surgeons where needed and document everything for your insurer.
Insurance reports and photographs
Detailed written report, dated photographs of damage and make-safe work, itemised quote for permanent repair — everything your insurer will ask for.
