- Gutters packed with leaves or moss
- Hoppers and outlets full of debris
- Leaks at the gutter joints
What we do, step by step
We do not take risks to get a closer look. We inspect what can be seen safely, and anything we cannot see is noted in the report. Most visits take roughly 1–2 hours at a house, depending on how many gutter runs and downpipes there are. In a hamlet or village like Hunton, a postcode does not always lead to the right gate, so a few directions, or a note of a nearby landmark, help us arrive on time. The visit itself is the same as anywhere else.
- We start by hearing about any drips, overflows or damp patches.
- The eaves gutters, downpipes and fascias are checked from ground level and vantage points.
- We check hidden gutters, such as valleys and parapets, where it’s safe to see them.
- We look in the loft space, where there is safe access, for signs of water getting in.
- You get a written report with photographs and recommendations.
Before we arrive
- Let us know about parking near the property
- Find any records of previous roof work
- Check pets are kept safely away

About our gutter survey in Hunton
Eaves gutters at the front of a building are easy to spot, but many aren’t. Valley, parapet, box and secret gutters can send water indoors when they overflow. We check them as far as they can safely be seen using vantage points, the roof space and the roof itself where safe. Hidden gutters are a common source of leaks inside. If you’ve noticed downpipes that are split or coming away and leaves and moss blocking gutters, we can find out what’s behind it, whatever the roof.
Older buildings in small places like Hunton may be listed or in a conservation area. That can affect what materials can be used when work is done, so check with the council before planning anything. A roof report helps you plan work with that in mind. Where a building is listed, matching the existing roof materials is frequently expected.
The written findings come by email, ready to forward to whoever needs them. Basic reports come within 48 hours, Standard within 24–48 hours and Premium on the day.

How we price gutter surveys
We confirm the price for your survey before booking. This is what makes a difference:
- Building height and the viewpoints available
- How big the roof is
- Extra roofs, like extensions, dormers or garages
- Basic, Standard or Premium
All our prices include VAT. Our price is from £150, including VAT. You will know the price for your survey before you book.
Getting in touch
Before you get in touch, it helps to have:
- Access details, like a loft hatch or a shared roof
- Pictures of the roof from a safe spot, if you have them
- Any deadline, such as an exchange date
- Why you want a survey: buying, a leak, a storm or new work
Photos help, if you have them. Pictures from the ground or a window are fine, and please don’t climb up for a closer look. To get started, phone 07833 053749 or use the contact form.
Why get it checked now?
Our report is a dated record of what we found, which helps when you plan work or brief a contractor. Without one, it is guesswork from the ground. In a place like Hunton, a barn or garage roof left to fail puts whatever is inside at risk. It is worth including them in a survey before a winter does the damage.
Gutter survey starts from £150, including VAT. What you pay depends on the size and height of the roof, access and which survey you book.
What you get with us
- Covered by professional indemnity and public liability insurance
- CAA-registered drone operator (Flyer ID and Operator ID)
- Visits on any day of the week
- Photographs and a written report every time

When to book a survey in Hunton
Leaves are behind most blocked gutters. Every autumn, trees fill gutters with leaves, twigs and seeds, and they collect at the outlets. Once an outlet is choked, the gutter fills and overflows.
Most people get in touch when they’ve noticed one of these:
- Water spilling over the gutter edge
- Gutters full of debris and silt
- Joints that drip after rain
- Rotten fascias or stained soffits
If you live near a park like Quarry Wood, or anywhere with mature trees, autumn leaves can block gutters and valleys.

Hunton homes and their roofs
Many older homes in Kent have handmade clay tiles, including Kent peg tiles held by pegs through two holes, and tile-hanging on their upper walls. Oast houses and timber-framed Wealden hall houses are part of the county’s older buildings too. Knowing the covering helps explain which parts of a roof are likely to need work first. If your home is older, it is worth knowing whether it is listed or in a conservation area before planning roof work. Changes that affect a listed building’s special interest need listed building consent, and councils can also use Article 4 directions to control changes in conservation areas.
Landlords with a home close to Yalding station may find that knowing the condition of the roof, chimneys and gutters helps you plan work rather than react to complaints. Take an older house close to St Mary's Church: the nails, lead and mortar on the roof may be wearing out even where the slates or tiles look fine.
