Gutter survey in Bramshott Chase
Damp patches on inside walls, stains below a valley or water running down the brickwork can often be traced to the gutters. We check whether gutters, outlets or downpipes are the likely source, from what can be seen safely. Where the cause looks more like the roof covering or a flashing, the report says so. The next step is suggested too. We survey downpipes, parapet and box gutters and valley gutters, and common reasons people get in touch are choked outlets or hopper heads and leaks at the gutter joints.
In a village or hamlet like Bramshott Chase, older cottages and farmhouses often sit alongside barns, outbuildings and a few newer houses. Roofs there can be clay tile, slate, stone or thatch, and chimney stacks are often old. We report on everything that’s safely in view, and thatch is a specialist material. On older roofs, it is usually the chimneys and lead flashings that need work first.
The report is written in plain words, so you do not need to be a roofer to follow it. Photos show what each point refers to, with the urgent items made clear.

We do. Villages and rural addresses get the same survey as a town house.
Can a landlord with a rental near Haslemere station book a roof survey?
Yes, rented property is part of what we cover. Just phone 07833 053749 or drop us an email and tell us about the building, including who will give access on the day.

Do you need a gutter survey in Bramshott Chase?
Hidden gutters are often lined with lead or another sheet covering. When a lining splits or an outlet blocks, the water can come inside as there is nowhere harmless for it to go. Lead linings can also be stolen.
Typical things we are asked to look at include:
- Gutters packed with leaves or moss
- Joints that drip after rain
- Cracked or loose downpipes
- Overflowing valley or parapet gutters
For an older house near a landmark such as Church of St Luke, its roof may have old fixings, lead flashings and chimneys that need a closer look.
What to check before booking
- Their track record with similar roofs
- Is there a chance to talk the report through?
- What the report includes, and whether it has photographs
- Their insurance cover
Honest limits
Some things can’t be seen without opening up the roof, so a survey has limits:
- Asbestos testing of old gutters, downpipes or soffits
- Underground drains, which need a CCTV drain survey
- Hidden sections we cannot view safely

What we do, step by step
The aim of the visit is simple: to see as much of the gutter as can be seen safely and record it clearly. Notes and photographs go into the written report. It usually takes about 1–2 hours at a house, depending on how many gutter runs and downpipes there are. Cottages and farmhouses around Bramshott Chase often have roofs at several levels, with lean-tos and outbuildings attached. We work round each section in turn, from the safest viewpoints.
- You let us know where you’ve seen overflows, drips or damp.
- The eaves gutters, downpipes and fascias are checked from ground level and windows.
- Valleys, parapets and box gutters are inspected where they can safely be seen.
- The loft space is checked for staining, where it can be reached safely.
- You receive a report with photos and recommendations.
Before we arrive
- Tell us where we can park nearby

Gutter surveys in Bramshott Chase: local notes
Before planning roof work on an older home, find out whether it’s listed or in a conservation area. Changes that affect a listed building’s special interest need listed building consent, and councils can also use Article 4 directions to control changes in conservation areas. Handmade clay tiles and tile-hung walls are typical of Surrey’s older houses. A few of Surrey’s oldest buildings have heavy Horsham stone slab roofs. Whichever you have, the details that tend to fail before the covering itself get the closest look.
Anyone responsible for a site like Woolmer Hill School will know that large buildings have long gutter runs and big roofs that need checking like any other. Landlords with a home close to Haslemere station may find that a dated record of the roof is useful when planning maintenance across a let.
