Gutter Survey in Blendworth
A careful look at the gutter at your property in Blendworth, and put it all in a report with photographs.
- Overflowing eaves gutters
- Downpipes that are split or coming away
- Leaves and moss blocking gutters
How the survey works
Time on site depends on the size and shape of the roof, but as a rough guide the survey takes about one to two hours for most homes, and longer where there are parapet, valley or box gutters to follow. If you have questions on the day, just ask. Older roofs in small places like Blendworth can have low, tight loft spaces, so let us know about the loft hatch and any ladder. Only areas that can be reached safely are inspected.
- We ask about overflows, damp or leaks you’ve noticed.
- We look along the gutters, downpipes and fascias from ground level and from windows.
- Valley, parapet and box gutters are inspected as far as they can be seen safely.
- Where the loft can be reached safely, we check it for staining or damp.
- The findings are written up with photos and recommendations.
Getting ready for the survey
- If you are buying, let the agent know when we’re coming
- Clear the way to the loft hatch
- Point out any leaks or damp patches

Advice
Gutter surveys for homes and businesses in Blendworth
Gutters have to slope gently towards the outlet to drain properly. Sagging brackets and slipped joints leave water standing and overflowing at the low points. We check the line of each run as far as we can see it and look at the brackets and downpipe clips. You get written recommendations, prioritised by urgency where relevant. We survey parapet and box gutters, outlets and hoppers and fascias and soffits, and common reasons people get in touch are gutters that have fallen out of line and fascia boards damaged by overflowing water.
Older buildings in small places like Blendworth may be listed or in a conservation area. If yours is, re-roofing in different materials may need consent, so the council is the place to check. A roof report helps you plan work with that in mind. Older materials such as clay tiles, slate and stone are frequently matched when work is done.
The report is written in plain words, so it makes sense without any roofing background. Each point is backed by a photo where possible.

Honest limits
No survey can tell you everything, and it’s better to know them up front. Keep these in mind:
- Pipes below ground level
- Rot or damp concealed behind fascias or inside walls
- Confirming asbestos in older rainwater goods

What we’re asked to look at in Blendworth
Overflowing gutters in a downpour are a common reason to book. Others spot damp patches, ceiling stains or green marks on the walls. A survey helps show where the water is coming from before more damage is done.
Things that often lead to a survey include:
- Hoppers and outlets full of debris
- Dripping or leaking gutter joints
- Overflowing valley or parapet gutters
- Gutters that have fallen out of line
With Uppark about 4.8 miles north-east, the area around Blendworth has a long history. If yours is one of the older homes, the roof may have been repaired many times, and the survey records how each part is holding up.

Tips that help
A little preparation and a few simple habits help, both for the survey and for the roof itself. Some pointers:
- Have overhanging branches cut back
- Watch ceilings under valley gutters for fresh marks
- Check that downpipes are firmly fixed to the wall
- Note any damp stains below the gutters
Where the evidence points to drains below ground, the report says so, so a drain survey can be arranged. We also note anything else we spot on the roof while we’re there.
Deal with drips, sags and loose downpipes early. They tend to get worse and spilled water harms brickwork and woodwork.

Does someone need to be in?
That depends on the survey. Inside the building and in the loft, we need someone to let us in.
Could my damp wall be caused by the gutters?
We check whether rainwater from the gutters is reaching the wall from overflows, leaking joints or loose downpipes. We can’t see inside the wall itself, so the report covers what can be seen.
How long does a gutter survey take?
Most visits to a house take about 1–2 hours, with commercial buildings nearer 3–4 hours.
Blendworth homes and their roofs
Blendworth lies within about 5 miles of the sea, and places near the sea get more salt in the air and more wind than inland. Salt corrodes metal fixings and flashings, and wind lifts loose slates, tiles and ridge pieces, while driving rain finds any gap. Thatch survives on some older buildings in Hampshire’s villages. Across the South East, older homes tend to have slate or clay tiles, and many later ones concrete tiles. On roofs like these, good slates or tiles can outlast the nails, battens, lead and mortar around them.
For site and facilities teams at buildings such as Horndean Church of England Junior School, large buildings have long gutter runs and big roofs that need checking like any other. For landlords with property near Rowlands Castle station, a roof report helps you deal with small faults before they turn into a call from a tenant.
