About our gutter survey in Grahame Park
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 and that usually means the walls or the inside of the building. We check the full rainwater system above ground, from eaves gutters and valleys to outlets, hoppers and downpipes. You get a written report with photos. Common reasons to book are soffits marked by water and leaking or loose downpipes, on downpipes, outlets and hoppers and eaves gutters.
Victorian and Edwardian terraces are found right across London, many with Welsh slate roofs, shared chimney stacks and parapet or valley gutters. Slates can last a century or more, but the nails holding them corrode, and slates slip. Homes in Grahame Park are no exception. Shared chimney stacks and the lead around them are just as important to check.
You receive the findings by email, easy to pass on to a roofer, an agent or an insurer. Turnaround is within 48 hours for Basic, 24–48 hours for Standard and same day for Premium.

What a gutter survey doesn’t cover
Some things can’t be seen without opening up the roof, and that sets some limits:
- The inside of buried drains
- Rot or damp concealed behind fascias or inside walls

Different roofs, different checks
Cast iron gutters
Plenty of period homes still have cast iron rainwater goods. They last well when painted, but rust where the paint fails.
Fascias and soffits
Fascias carry the gutters, so a rotten fascia can let the gutter drop. Damaged or stained boards are recorded.

What affects the price in Grahame Park
Every roof is different, so prices are confirmed before booking. These are the things that affect it:
- The number of roofs, including extensions and garages
- Any need for thermal images or a drone flight
- Building height and the viewpoints available
- The shape of the roof and its details
Larger roofs, taller buildings and commercial roofs take longer, so they’re priced to match. You will know the figure before booking.
Getting in touch
A few details help us suggest the right survey and price. When you contact us, it helps to mention:
- The property’s address and postcode
- When you need the report by
- Why you want a survey: buying, a leak, a storm or new work
- How the loft is reached, if there is one
If you have photos of the roof, send them over. Take them safely from the ground or a window, and please don’t climb up for a closer look. To send them or to book, call 07833 053749 or send us an email.
Why act early in Grahame Park
Climbing a ladder to look in the gutters yourself is risky. From the ground you can spot drips and overflows but hidden gutters are another matter. We inspect as far as it’s safe to see and put it in writing. London’s older roofs often have bitumen felt underlay or none at all, so once the slates or flashings let water past, little stops it reaching ceilings. Left alone, that means wet timbers and plaster, which is a far bigger job than the roof fault itself.
What a survey costs comes down to the roof itself: how big it is, how high it is, the number of separate roofs and how safely it can be seen. Our price is from £150, including VAT.
Why us?
- Thermal imaging and drone inspection where they help
- Covered by professional indemnity and public liability insurance
- We hold a CAA Flyer ID and Operator ID
- Surveys seven days a week

How the survey works
Time on site depends on the size and shape of the roof, but as a rough guide the survey takes an hour or two at a typical home, and about three to four hours for a commercial roof. You’re welcome to ask questions while we are there. Surveys in Grahame Park can be booked for any day of the week. It helps if you can point us to a visitor permit or a nearby bay, and to clear a path to the loft hatch. Upstairs rooms at the back are useful too, as they frequently give the best view of a rear addition.
- 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 safely be seen.
- The loft space is checked for staining, where it can be reached safely.
- You receive a report with photos and recommendations.
Preparing for the visit
- Keep pets out of the way during the survey
- Check we can get to the back of the property
- Have any paperwork from past roof work to hand
Arrange a survey
Not sure which survey you need? It is easiest to ring 07833 053749 or use the contact form and describe the roof and what’s worrying you. We will explain the options and the price.

Local roofs in Grahame Park
Outer London has lots of Victorian and Edwardian terraces with slate roofs, but also a great many interwar semis, often with hipped roofs in clay or concrete tiles. If your home in Grahame Park is one of them, bay roofs, hips and later dormers each have their own details. Knowing the covering helps explain which parts of a roof are likely to need work first. About 3.5 miles south-east lies Heath Hall, a reminder of how long the area around Grahame Park has been built on. Older homes in the wider area frequently have features worth a closer look, like lead valleys, tall stacks and roofs that have been patched over the years.
Shop and office owners around Broadwalk Centre may find that a written record of the roof’s condition helps you plan maintenance rather than react to leaks. If you own a rental within reach of Mill Hill Broadway station, a roof report between tenancies helps plan work before a small defect becomes a tenant’s leak. If you look after a building like St James' Catholic High School, a written record of a large roof helps plan work for the holidays rather than in term time.
