Gutter surveys for homes and businesses in Fisher's Pond
Some gutters are easy to see from the street, but many aren’t. Valley gutters between slopes, gutters behind parapet walls and box or secret gutters can send water indoors when they overflow. We check them as far as they can be seen safely using vantage points, the loft space and the roof itself where safe. Hidden gutters are a common source of leaks inside. If you’ve noticed sagging gutters and loose brackets and blocked outlets and hoppers, we can find out what’s behind it, on fascias and soffits, downpipes and outlets and hoppers alike.
In a village or hamlet like Fisher's Pond, older cottages and farmhouses often sit alongside barns, outbuildings and a few newer houses. Older roofs may be clay tile, slate, stone or thatch, often with chimneys that have stood a long time. We report on whatever is safely visible, and thatch is a specialist material. Chimneys and lead flashings on old roofs frequently need the most attention.
Pictures do a lot of the work in our reports, so you can see each defect rather than just read about it. Anything out of sight on the day is listed as such.

Fisher's Pond questions
How do I find out if my home in Fisher's Pond is listed?
Start with Historic England’s list for listing and your council for conservation areas. Either can affect what roof work is allowed, so it is worth checking before planning any.
Can a landlord with a rental near Eastleigh station book a roof survey?
Yes, rented property is part of what we cover. You can call 07833 053749 or send us an email with the address and a few details.
Will you check the loft?
Where it’s relevant to the survey and there is safe access, yes. Please clear anything stored under the hatch.
Do you test soffits or gutters for asbestos?
No. We don’t carry out asbestos testing. If rainwater goods or soffits look like they could contain asbestos, we note it so a specialist asbestos surveyor can check before any work.
How long have you been surveying roofs?
Over 20 years and more than 5,000 surveys.
Are hidden gutters like valleys and box gutters included?
Yes, as far as they can safely be seen. We use the ground, windows, the loft space and the roof where it is safe and a drone where applicable.
How much time does the visit need?
It normally takes about 1–2 hours for most houses, and about three to four hours for a commercial roof. We will give you an idea when you book.

Gutter surveys in Fisher's Pond: local notes
South Stoneham House, about 4.6 miles south-west, is one of the historic houses in the wider area around Fisher's Pond. Period homes nearby can have lead valleys, tall chimneys and a patchwork of past repairs, and a listed home or one in a conservation area may need consent for changes of material. A number of Hampshire villages keep thatched roofs on their older buildings. Across the South East, older homes tend to have slate or clay tiles, and many later ones concrete tiles. Whatever the covering, it’s often the fixings, flashings, valleys and gutters that give out first.
If you own a rental within reach of Eastleigh station, a roof report between tenancies helps plan work before a small defect becomes a tenant’s leak. If you live in an older home near Church of the Holy Trinity, its roof may have old fixings, lead flashings and chimneys that need a closer look.

Landlord and commercial surveys in Fisher's Pond
If the property is let, the agent or a tenant can let us in. We survey on weekdays and at weekends, which can make access easier.
We survey roofs for landlords and agents as well as householders. A written report with photographs gives you a clear record of the gutter, useful for planning maintenance.
DIY checks: what’s safe
You can learn a lot from the ground. With binoculars, look for slipped or missing slates and tiles, gaps along the ridge and leaning chimneys. Never climb onto the roof to look.
Inside, the loft is a good place to look, with care. Use a torch and stay on the joists or boards, and look for staining, damp timber or daylight coming through.
Why get it checked now?
Our report is a dated record of what we found, useful when you are planning maintenance or getting work priced. Without one, it is guesswork from ground level. For older village homes like those around Fisher's Pond, the right replacement materials are not always easy to find quickly. That’s one more reason to find defects before they become urgent.
We offer three survey packages: Basic from £150, Standard from £250 and Premium from £400, with VAT included. What your roof costs depends on its size, access and what you want to find out.

Advice
Signs you need a gutter survey in Fisher's Pond
Some gutters may be too small, or have too few downpipes, for the roof they serve. An extension or extra roof slope can add water to an existing gutter, and a heavy downpour shows up the problem.
Things that often lead to a survey include:
- Blocked outlets and hoppers
- Cracked or loose downpipes
- Gutters overflowing in heavy rain
- Dripping or leaking gutter joints
If you look after a building such as Colden Common Primary School, long gutter runs and wide roofs on a building that size are worth checking on a regular cycle.
What to check before booking
- Which limits apply to the survey
- If they fly a drone, whether they hold a CAA Flyer ID and Operator ID
- Which parts of the roof they’ll actually see
- Their report turnaround times
