Gutter survey in Egham Hythe: what you get

This survey covers rainwater above ground, from the gutters down to where the downpipes meet the ground. It is not a CCTV drain survey, so we can’t see inside underground pipes. Where water seems to be backing up from below ground, we will say so in the report, with a suggestion to book a separate drain survey. Anything we find above ground, like a split hopper or a leaking downpipe, is photographed and recorded. Common reasons to book are leaking or loose downpipes and water spilling over the gutter edge, on fascias and soffits, eaves gutters and downpipes.

In a smaller place like Egham Hythe, some roofs stand more exposed to wind and rain than in a built-up town. That weather tells first on ridges, verges, chimneys and flashings. Checking those edges shows whether anything has begun to work loose. Once one ridge tile or slate moves, wind gets under the next one too.

The Standard Survey adds moisture detection, a structural check and a follow-up consultation. The Premium Survey goes further, with thermal imaging, drone inspection where it applies, structural analysis and an in-person consultation.

How the survey works

A survey visit follows a simple order: we hear what you’ve seen, look at the roof from every safe viewpoint, photograph what we find and make notes for the report. It usually takes roughly 1–2 hours at a house, depending on how many gutter runs and downpipes there are. For a survey in Egham Hythe, we agree the time, the access and parking before the day. Visits can be on weekdays, Saturdays or Sundays. Let us know about any garages, outbuildings or extensions you want included.

  1. First, we agree the areas to focus on.
  2. We look along each run for debris, sagging and drips.
  3. We check the outlets, hoppers, downpipes and any overflows.
  4. We check fascias, soffits and walls for water damage.
  5. You get photos and written recommendations, prioritised where relevant.

Preparing for the visit

  • Gather any invoices or paperwork from past roof work
  • Keep pets in another room
  • For a flat or shared roof, check access with the freeholder or managing agent

Why act early in Egham Hythe

Small gutter faults rarely fix themselves. Every downpour adds to the damage on the walls, the fascias and sometimes the rooms inside. Getting it surveyed now shows what needs attention first. Tradespeople may need to travel further to a smaller place like Egham Hythe, so it helps to plan roof work rather than call someone out in a hurry. A survey gives you that notice.

Every price we give includes VAT. Prices start from £150, including VAT. We confirm the price for your survey before booking.

Local roofs in Egham Hythe

Many older homes in Surrey have handmade clay tiles and tile-hung upper walls. Some old buildings in Surrey and Sussex have Horsham stone slab roofs. Whichever you have, the details that tend to fail before the covering itself get the closest look. Historic houses like Botleys Mansion, about 3.5 miles south, show how far back building in the area around Egham Hythe goes. If yours is one of the older homes, expect a mix of original materials and later repairs on the roof, and a listed home or one in a conservation area may need consent for changes of material.

If you live in an older home near St Paul's Church, its roof may have old fixings, lead flashings and chimneys that need a closer look. Take a building like Thorpe Lea Primary School: large buildings have long gutter runs and big roofs that need checking like any other. Trees in and around Penton Park shed leaves that can end up in nearby gutters.

Tips that help

You don’t need to be a roofer to help. What helps most:

  • Watch the gutters during heavy rain
  • Note any damp stains below the gutters
  • Include valley, parapet and box gutters when clearing
  • Do not climb a ladder to look in the gutters

Report times depend on the package you choose: Basic within 48 hours, Standard in 24–48 hours and Premium the same day. We email it to you as soon as it is ready.

Deal with drips, sags and loose downpipes early. Left alone, they normally grow, and the water they spill can damage walls and timber.

What affects the cost of gutter surveys

A few things affect what a survey costs:

  • The height of the building and how the roof can safely be seen
  • The roof’s overall size
  • The package you choose: Basic, Standard or Premium
  • The number of roofs, including extensions and garages

Our price is from £150, including VAT. Packages run from Basic at £150 through Standard at £250 to Premium at £400, inc. VAT, and we can help you choose.

What we need to know

When you call or email, these details help:

  • When you need the report by
  • The property’s address and postcode
  • What made you get in touch
  • The type of building and roof, such as pitched or flat

A quick phone call is usually the easiest start: call 07833 053749 or use the contact form. The price is agreed before a date is set.

Egham Hythe: your questions answered

Do you survey roofs for landlords with property near Egham station?

Yes, rented property is part of what we cover. Just ring 07833 053749 or email us and let us know about the building, including who will give access on the day.

Does a conservation area affect roof work in Egham Hythe?

You can check whether a building is listed on Historic England’s list, and your council can tell you if it is in a conservation area. Listed building consent is needed for changes that affect a listed building’s special interest, and conservation areas can limit changes of roofing material.

Do you check valley and parapet gutters?

Yes, where it is safe to see them. We use the ground, windows, the roof space and the roof where it’s safe, and by drone where it is applicable.

Does the season matter for a gutter survey?

Whenever suits you. If you’ve already seen a gutter overflowing, it’s best not to wait, because the walls take the water.

How fast do I get the report?

Each package has its own report time. Basic: within 48 hours. Standard: 24 to 48 hours. Premium: the same day. Mention any deadline when booking.

What’s the best way to book?

The quickest way is to ring 07833 053749 or send us an email. Give us the address and a few details about the roof, and we’ll recommend the right survey. Surveys run seven days a week.

Do you look in the loft space?

If the survey needs it and the loft space can be reached safely, yes. Please clear anything stored under the hatch, and if the loft cannot be reached safely, the report says so.

What a gutter survey doesn’t cover

Our survey is not a RICS Level 2 or Level 3 survey, a structural engineer’s report or an asbestos survey. Other limits to bear in mind:

  • Blockages deep inside downpipes
  • Underground drains, which need a CCTV drain survey
  • Parts of gutters that cannot be seen safely

If you’re not sure which survey you need, phone 07833 053749 or drop us an email and we’ll give you a straight answer before you book. The full list of what we check.

  • Parapet and box gutters
