Do you need a gutter survey in Gosport?
Brackets can loosen, corrode or snap over the years. Wet leaves and silt add a lot of weight, and that weight pulls sections out of line. Once the fall is lost, water sits at the low point and spills over.
Here are some of the things we see frequently:
- Valley or box gutters that overflow inside
- Downpipes that are split or coming away
- Sagging gutters and loose brackets
- Choked outlets or hopper heads
If you live in an older home near Church of St Mark, its roof may have old fixings, lead flashings and chimneys that need a closer look.
Before booking anyone
- Whether the roof space is looked at, where there is one
- What they won’t be able to tell you
- How they plan to inspect the roof safely
- What the report includes, and whether it has photographs
Gutter surveys for homes and businesses in Gosport
We carry out gutter surveys in Gosport as part of our cover across London and the South East. On the day, we inspect whatever is safely visible, from the ground, from windows and from the loft space. Time on site usually takes roughly 1–2 hours for most homes, and longer where there are parapet, valley or box gutters to follow. Afterwards, you get a written report with photos and recommendations. If you’ve noticed overflowing valley or parapet gutters and gutters that have fallen out of line, a survey will tell you what’s going on, on fascias and soffits, parapet and box gutters and outlets and hoppers alike.
Some older homes in villages like Gosport 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.
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.

FAQs for Gosport
Do you cover smaller places like Gosport?
Yes, Gosport is covered. We cover the whole of London and South East England, and smaller places are part of that. Longer journeys are simply planned ahead of time.
Does a conservation area affect roof work in Gosport?
The council and Historic England’s list are the places to check. It is worth checking before planning roof work, as both can affect what’s allowed.
When does the report arrive?
It depends on the package: the Basic Survey report arrives within 48 hours, the Standard Survey in 24 to 48 hours and the Premium Survey the same day. The report is emailed to you.
How do I arrange a gutter survey in Gosport?
It is easiest to phone 07833 053749 or drop us an email. Let us know the address and a little about the roof, and we’ll suggest the right survey. Surveys run seven days a week.
Is a CCTV drain survey included?
No. We look at above-ground rainwater only down to where the downpipes reach the ground. If a drain below ground looks like the cause, the report says so.
Will you fly a drone over my roof?
Where it helps and it’s safe, yes. Whether we can fly on the day depends on the weather and the airspace rules. We hold a CAA Flyer ID and Operator ID.
How many surveys have you done?
We have more than 20 years’ experience and have carried out more than 5,000 surveys.
Tips from our surveys
Nothing here needs a ladder. A few suggestions:
- Have gutters cleared at least once a year
- Look for new stains on ceilings below valleys after rain
- Make sure downpipe clips are holding
- Have overhanging branches cut back
If we think the problem lies underground, we’ll say so, so a drain survey can be arranged. We also note anything else we spot on the roof while we’re there.
Get trees and climbers near the eaves trimmed back using someone with the right kit. Fewer leaves in the gutters means fewer blockages.
What you can safely check yourself
It helps to keep a record: dates of leaks, photos from the ground and any work done on the roof. Send it with your enquiry and it will help the survey.
What you cannot do safely is get up close. Slates, tiles, flat roofs and rooflights can give way, and a fall can be serious. That part is for a survey.
Prices for gutter surveys in Gosport
Prices always include VAT. The things that change the price are:
- The size of the roof
- If the survey needs thermal imaging or a drone
- Which survey package you book
- Features like valleys, chimneys, dormers and parapets
Price depends partly on the package: Basic from £150, Standard from £250 or Premium from £400, all inc. VAT. Size, height and access can affect the price too.
What to let us know when you contact us
Getting the details right at the start saves time. Please include:
- When you need the report by
- Any photos you have, taken from ground level or a window
- The address and postcode of the property
- Why you want a survey: buying, a leak, a storm or new work
Most bookings start with a short call: ring 07833 053749 or drop us an email and we’ll ask a few questions about the roof. The price is agreed before a date is set.
Gosport homes and their roofs
Thatch survives on some older buildings in Hampshire’s villages. Slate and clay tile are the usual coverings on older South East houses, with concrete tiles on many later estates. Knowing the covering helps explain which parts of a roof are likely to need work first. There are about 500,000 buildings on England’s list of listed buildings, and around 10,000 conservation areas. If your home is listed, changes that affect its special interest need listed building consent, and in a conservation area re-roofing in different materials may need permission, so check with the council.
If you let a flat or house near Chandlers Ford station, a roof report between tenancies helps plan work before a small defect becomes a tenant’s leak. If you look after a building such as Ampfield Church of England Primary School, long gutter runs and wide roofs on a building that size are worth checking on a regular cycle.

What we do, step by step
After the inspection, everything we found is written up as a report with photos, sent to you by email. As for time on site, it normally takes an hour or two at a house, depending on how many gutter runs and downpipes there are. Older roofs in small places like Gosport can have low, tight loft spaces, so it helps to know whether there’s a loft hatch and how easy it is to reach. We only go where it’s safe.
- We start with what you’ve noticed, such as damp or overflowing gutters.
- The eaves gutters, downpipes and fascias are checked from ground level and windows.
- Valleys, parapets and box gutters are inspected where they can be seen safely.
- Where it’s safe, we check the loft for signs of water.
- A written report with photos and recommendations follows.
Before we arrive
- Point out any leaks or damp patches
- Have keys ready for side gates, garages or roof access doors
- Move anything stored under the loft hatch
