Gutter survey in Cranbourne: what you get
Your gutters take the rain from the roof and lead it away from the walls. If they clog, drip or sag, the water ends up somewhere it shouldn’t, often down the brickwork or into the building. Our survey looks at the whole rainwater system above ground, including gutters, valleys, outlets, hoppers and downpipes. The findings go into a written report with photos. Common reasons to book are blocked outlets and hoppers and valley or box gutters that overflow inside, on downpipes, fascias and soffits and outlets and hoppers.
In a small place like Cranbourne, many roofs stand in the open, so ridges, chimney stacks, flashings and gutters work hard. Older walls take a long time to dry once water gets in. A roof report shows what needs attention first. Lead flashings and old chimney stacks are frequently where weather gets in first.
Every survey ends with a written report, with photos, sent by email. It sets out the condition of the gutter, any defects and our written recommendations.

What we look for on each type of roof
Aluminium and other metal gutters
Metal gutters can suffer at joints and where different metals meet. Any leaks or corrosion we spot go in the report.
Lead-lined valley and parapet gutters
Some older roofs have a central valley running to the back and if it blocks, water can come indoors. We check it where it is safe to see.
What a gutter survey looks like in Cranbourne
St Leonard's Hill, about 1.5 miles north-east, is one of the historic houses in the wider area around Cranbourne. If you own one of the older houses, expect a mix of original materials and later repairs on the roof. Older houses in the South East often have slate or clay tile roofs, while many later estates have concrete tiles. Knowing the covering helps explain which parts of a roof are likely to need work first.
If you own one of the older houses in the streets near Church of St Peter, corroded nails, tired lead and weathered chimney pointing are the things to watch on older roofs. For site and facilities teams at buildings such as Cranbourne Primary School, a written record of a large roof helps plan work for the holidays rather than in term time. If you own a rental within reach of Ascot station, knowing the condition of the roof, chimneys and gutters helps you plan work rather than react to complaints.

Practical tips
A few practical points come up again and again on our surveys. They’re worth knowing whatever the roof:
- Include valley, parapet and box gutters when clearing
- Have gutters cleared at least once a year
- Watch the gutters during heavy rain
- Keep climbers away from the eaves
You receive a photo-illustrated written report and clear written recommendations. Share it with a contractor of your choice so they can see exactly what’s needed.
Get the gutters cleared every year, and more often if trees overhang the roof. The best time is typically after the leaves have dropped. Clear gutters can carry water away as they should.
Questions from Cranbourne
Can a landlord with a rental near Ascot station book a roof survey?
Yes, that is a common request. We just need to know who will give access, and the report can go straight to you or your agent.
Do you cover smaller places like Cranbourne?
Yes, Cranbourne is covered. We survey roofs across London and South East England, from towns to the smallest villages. Longer journeys are simply planned beforehand.
How experienced are you?
More than 5,000 surveys over 20+ years.
Is a Saturday or Sunday visit possible?
Yes. We survey on weekdays and at weekends. To find a day that suits, call 07833 053749 or drop us an email.
Are you insured?
Professional indemnity and public liability insurance cover our surveys. Ask if you need details for a managing agent or building owner.
Does someone need to be in?
Someone needs to let us in if we’re looking inside or in the loft. We will talk about access as you book.
Do you test soffits or gutters for asbestos?
No. We don’t test for asbestos. If rainwater goods or soffits look like they could contain asbestos, we note it so a specialist asbestos surveyor can check before any work.
What you can safely check yourself
The one thing to avoid is getting up close. Roofs are fragile and slippery, and a fall can be serious. That is where a survey comes in, using safe viewpoints and a drone where applicable.
Inside, the loft is a good place to look, with care. Take a torch and only step on boards or joists, and look for staining, damp timber or daylight coming through.
How it works
We work from the outside in: outside views come first, then the loft space if there’s safe access. All told, expect between one and two hours at a typical home, though large, tall or awkward roofs take more time. In a hamlet or village like Cranbourne, a postcode does not always lead to the right gate, so a few directions, or a note of a nearby landmark, help us arrive on time. The visit itself is the same as anywhere else.
- First, we agree the areas to focus on.
- Each gutter run is checked for blockages, sags and leaking joints.
- Outlets, hoppers, downpipes and overflows are inspected.
- We check fascias, soffits and walls for water damage.
- You get photos and written recommendations, prioritised where relevant.
Before we arrive
- Tell us about any leaks, stains or damp patches you know of
- If it isn’t your property yet, arrange access through the agent
- Let us know about parking before the day
