Gutter surveys around Coxhill Green
Many older homes in Surrey have handmade clay tiles and tile-hung upper walls. Horsham stone slab roofs survive on some old buildings in Surrey. Whatever the covering, it’s often the fixings, flashings, valleys and gutters that give out first. Botleys Mansion, about 3.5 miles north-east, is one of the historic houses in the wider area around Coxhill Green. If your house is among the older ones, expect a mix of original materials and later repairs on the roof, and any change of roofing material on a listed home needs checking with the council first.
For site and facilities teams at buildings such as St Lawrence CofE (Aided) Primary School, its roofs, gutters and any chimneys need the same checks as a house’s, just on a bigger scale. Trees in and around Milford Green and Coxhill Green shed leaves that can end up in nearby gutters, so outlets and downpipes are worth watching.

Gutter survey in Coxhill Green: what you get
People book a gutter survey when gutters overflow, when damp appears or before the wetter months. Landlords and managing agents use it to plan maintenance, and some buyers want the rainwater system checked before exchange. The survey and report follow the same steps whatever the reason, with photos and written recommendations. Visits can be on weekdays, Saturdays or Sundays. We survey downpipes, valley gutters and parapet and box gutters, and the problems we are asked to look at most are brackets that have dropped or snapped and leaves and moss blocking gutters.
Some older homes in villages like Coxhill Green are 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. Where a building is listed, matching the existing roof materials is often expected.
Pictures do a lot of the work in our reports, so you can see each defect rather than just read about it. If something couldn’t be seen safely, the report is clear about it.

How the survey works
We check the roof from outside and, where it’s relevant and there’s safe access, from inside the roof space too. Inside, we look for staining, damp, gaps and signs of movement. All in, the survey usually takes about 1–2 hours for a house, while a commercial roof takes nearer three to four hours. Older roofs in small places like Coxhill Green can have low, tight loft spaces, so tell us about the loft hatch and any ladder. We only go where it is safe.
- First, you let us know what you’ve seen, such as overflows or damp.
- 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.
- We look in the loft space, where there is safe access, for signs of water getting in.
- We send a written report with photos and clear recommendations.
Before the survey
- Keep pets inside or away from the areas we are looking at
- If you are buying, let the agent know when we’re coming
- Find any records of previous roof work

How the survey changes by roof type

Common questions in Coxhill Green
Do you survey roofs for landlords with property near Longcross station?
Of course. Let us know whether a tenant or an agent will let us in, and we can send the report to you or your agent.
Is Coxhill Green within the area you cover?
Yes, we do. We work right across London and South East England, from towns to the smallest villages. The journey is planned ahead, so it helps to know about access.
How much time does the visit need?
It usually takes about 1–2 hours for most homes, and longer where there are parapet, valley or box gutters to follow. You’ll know roughly how long when we arrange the visit.
Do you carry professional indemnity insurance?
Every survey is covered by professional indemnity and public liability insurance, and we can provide details if a managing agent needs them.

Typically, if there is one and it can be reached safely. From inside, the underside of the roof often shows damp, staining or daylight that can’t be seen from outside.

Common roof problems in Coxhill Green
Brackets can loosen, corrode or snap over the years. A gutter full of wet debris is heavy and the extra load drags the gutter down. Lose the fall and water gathers in the dip, then overflows.
These are some of the problems a survey can pick up:
- Gutters that have fallen out of line
- Water backing up from a hidden gutter
- Overflowing eaves gutters
- Gutters full of debris and silt
The streets around a church like Church of St Lawrence are frequently among the oldest in a place, and if you own one of the older houses nearby, its roof may have old fixings, lead flashings and chimneys that need a closer look.
