What the job involves
Storm damage repairs cover everything from a handful of slipped tiles after a named storm to widespread wind uplift requiring full scaffold and re-fixing of complete courses. The scope depends on how bad the weather was and how old the existing fixings were.
For most homeowners this is an insurance claim job, which means documentation matters as much as the repair itself. A roofer who understands insurance work will photograph everything, quote in a format a loss adjuster can follow, and keep a paper trail.
Liverpool — local context
Traditional material: Welsh slate on Victorian terraces, concrete interlocking post-war.
The Georgian Quarter, Canning and parts of the city-centre World Heritage buffer zone impose strict planning controls on roof coverings visible from the public realm.
What changes the price
- How widespread the damage is — a handful of tiles is a day, widespread uplift is a week.
- Whether scaffolding is needed — for more than a few tiles at second-storey height it usually is.
- Whether the underlying nails and battens are still sound after the shock.
- Whether the claim is insurance-funded or private — insurance jobs sometimes run longer because of the adjuster process.
Timeline: Small jobs 1–2 days; larger uplift remedials can run 3–5 days with scaffolding.

Should I use my insurer’s panel contractor or my own roofer?
In most cases you can take a cash settlement and use your own roofer. Panel contractors are on volume tariffs with the insurer and may spec lower-grade materials to fit; your own independent roofer quote can be used as the basis of a cash settlement. See the insurance claim guide for the full process.
How soon after a storm should I get a repair booked?
Make-safe first if water is coming in. For the full repair, within the first two to three weeks — demand spikes after named storms and good roofers get booked out fast.
