Storm damage repairs across South Lincolnshire
High winds and heavy rain can damage roof coverings, flashing, gutters and external finishes, with water then affecting the inside of the property. K&L Services Limited assesses suitable storm-damage work across Spalding, Holbeach, Boston, Bourne and surrounding areas.
From initial protection to permanent repairs
The immediate aim is to reduce the risk of further damage where this can be done safely. Once conditions allow a proper assessment, we can identify visible defects, discuss temporary or permanent options and consider any internal making good required after the building has dried.
Storm-related work may include
Temporary weatherproofing - Replacement of missing or broken roof materials - Repairs to ridges, flashing, gutters and flat roofs - Investigation of water ingress - Repairs to damaged plaster and decoration - Photographic records of visible defects
Safety, documentation and realistic next steps
Never climb onto a storm-damaged roof yourself. Take photographs only from a safe position and contact your insurer promptly if you may make a claim. We can describe and photograph what we observe, but decisions about insurance cover and claim approval remain with your insurer.
FAQ
Should I contact my insurer before arranging repairs?
If the damage may form part of a claim, notify the insurer as soon as possible and ask what evidence or authorisation they require. Urgent steps may still be needed to prevent further damage.
Can you repair internal storm damage too?
Yes, suitable plastering, decorating and making-good work can be discussed after the source of water ingress has been resolved and the affected area is ready.
Do you provide emergency temporary protection?
Subject to weather, safe access and availability, temporary weatherproofing may be possible. We will explain what can safely be achieved when assessing the situation.
