Gutter survey in Hannington, Hampshire
A survey of gutters, valleys, outlets and downpipes for Hannington and the rest of Hampshire. Surveys run on any day of the week.
- Leaks at the gutter joints
- Leaking or loose downpipes
- Overflowing eaves gutters
Useful tips for Hannington property owners
Here are a few things we’d tell any owner, before and after a survey:
- Have overhanging branches cut back
- Note any damp stains below the gutters
- Check from ground level or a window, not a ladder
- Watch the gutters during heavy rain
After any work is done, watch the gutters in the next heavy rain. Water should run to the outlets and away without spilling over, and if it doesn’t, raise it with whoever did the job.
Look at the gutters from indoors or the ground when it pours. Water spilling over the edge or out of a joint is a sign that something needs attention before the walls suffer.
Gutter survey in Hannington: what you get
Most blocked gutters are full of leaves, moss or silt. Buildings near trees collect more, and moss washing off a tiled or slate roof adds to it. We note where gutters are clogged or holding water, which outlets and hoppers are choked and whether any overflows are doing their job. Photos show each problem clearly. It is an easy job to put off, but they rarely get better. If you’ve noticed soffits marked by water and brackets that have dropped or snapped, we can find out what’s behind it, on valley gutters, fascias and soffits and outlets and hoppers alike.
Some older homes in villages like Hannington 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. Knowing the roof’s condition helps you plan ahead with that in mind. Where a building is listed, matching the existing roof materials is often expected.
With the Standard Survey, you also get moisture detection, a structural check and a follow-up consultation. The Premium Survey adds thermal imaging, drone inspection where it applies, structural analysis and an in-person consultation.

What you can safely check yourself
Watch the gutters in a downpour, from a window or the ground. Overflowing water can point to a blockage or a sagging run.
If you have a loft with safe access, take a look inside. Take a torch and only step on boards or joists, checking for stains, damp wood or chinks of daylight.

How the survey changes by roof type
Lead-lined valley and parapet gutters

Aluminium and other metal gutters
Long metal gutter runs on larger buildings can hide blocked outlets, so we check the outlets carefully.

How it works
A survey visit follows a simple order: we listen to what’s been worrying you, inspect the roof from every safe viewpoint, photograph what we find and make notes for the report. It normally takes between one and two hours for a house, or half a day or so for a commercial building. In a small place like Hannington, access is normally the main thing to plan. Mention any outbuildings, barns or garages you want included, and anything about the roof you already know. Visits can be on weekdays, Saturdays or Sundays.
- 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.
- We look at hidden gutters as far as safe access allows.
- The loft space is checked for staining, where it can be reached safely.
- A written report with photos and recommendations follows.
Before the survey
- Note where any stains or damp appear
- Have keys ready for side gates, garages or roof access doors
- Mention any parking restrictions on your street

Roofs, chimneys and gutters in Hannington
England has around 10,000 conservation areas and about 500,000 listed buildings.
