About our gutter survey in Hatchet Green
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. Our survey shows which gutters are blocked or standing full and where outlets or hoppers are choked and whether overflows are working. The photos show you exactly what we found. It’s an easy job to put off, but they rarely get better. If you’ve noticed leaves and moss blocking gutters and valley or box gutters that overflow inside, a survey will tell you what’s going on, on downpipes, fascias and soffits and outlets and hoppers alike.
In a village or hamlet like Hatchet Green, 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 what can be seen safely, and thatch is a specialist material. On older roofs, it is usually the chimneys and lead flashings that need work first.
The report records the gutter as we found it on the day. It’s useful straight away, and a good reference for later, like when you want to compare after future work.

Local roofs in Hatchet Green
Some Hampshire villages still have thatched roofs. Slate and clay tile are the usual coverings on older South East houses, with concrete tiles on many later estates. Whichever you have, the details that tend to fail before the covering itself get the closest look. Historic houses such as Breamore House, about 2.6 miles west, show how far back building in the area around Hatchet Green goes. Period homes nearby can have lead valleys, tall chimneys and a patchwork of past repairs.
Anyone responsible for a site like Hale Primary School will know that large buildings have long gutter runs and big roofs that need checking like any other.

What we look for on each type of roof
Box and secret gutters
A secret gutter is tucked under the slates or tiles at an abutment or valley and is easy to overlook. The report records what could and couldn’t be seen.
Cast iron gutters
A cracked cast iron downpipe can leak down the wall unseen, so we look closely at the walls around them.

Signs you need a gutter survey in Hatchet Green
Brackets can loosen, corrode or snap over the years. Wet leaves and silt add a lot of weight and the extra load drags the gutter down. Lose the fall and water gathers in the dip, then overflows.
People typically book a survey after spotting something like this:
- Overflowing eaves gutters
- Cracked or loose downpipes
- Fascia boards damaged by overflowing water
- Gutters that have fallen out of line
For an older house near a landmark such as Church of St Mary, the nails, lead and mortar on the roof may be wearing out even where the slates or tiles look fine.
What to check before booking
- How soon the report will arrive
- Will they check the loft as well as the outside?
- Are they insured for the work?
- What exactly goes into their report
How the survey works
The visit typically starts outside and finishes in the loft: outside views come first, then the roof space if there’s safe access. All told, expect between one and two hours for most houses, and longer for a large or complex roof. Somewhere as small as Hatchet Green, access is often the only tricky part. 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.
- You let us know where you’ve seen overflows, drips or damp.
- The eaves gutters, downpipes and fascias are looked at from ground level and windows.
- Valleys, parapets and box gutters are inspected where they can safely be seen.
- The roof space is checked for staining, where it can be reached safely.
- A photo-illustrated written report and recommendations follows.
Before the survey
- For a flat or shared roof, check access with the freeholder or managing agent
- Clear the way to the loft hatch
- Note where any stains or damp appear

Advice
Questions from Hatchet Green
Do you cover smaller places like Hatchet Green?
We do. Villages and rural addresses get the same survey as a town house, with the route planned beforehand.
Do you carry out roof surveys in Hatchet Green?
Yes, Hatchet Green is one of the places we work. Every survey there gets the same written report with photos.
Do you look in the loft space?
If there is a loft and safe access to it, yes. From inside, the underside of the roof often shows damp, staining or daylight that can’t be seen from outside.
Is there a good time of year to book a gutter survey?
You can book at any time of year. Before the wetter months gives you time to plan any work, and a wet spell can show where gutters overflow.
Do I need to be at home?
Not always. An outside-only look can be arranged beforehand, but anything inside needs someone there to give access.
What’s the best way to book?
To arrange a survey, phone 07833 053749 or email us and let us know the address and what you’d like to know. We will confirm the price and agree a day with you.
How much is a gutter survey?
Our price is from £150, including VAT. The size of the property and the access affect the price. To get a price, ring 07833 053749 or send us an email.
Can I check my roof myself?
Inside, the loft is a good place to look, with care. Take a torch and only step on boards or joists, and look for staining, damp timber or daylight coming through.
After strong wind, take a look from the pavement or garden: broken slates or tiles in the garden, gaps along the ridge or loose lead are signs to note. Do not go up yourself.
