Gutter surveys for homes and businesses in Middle Wallop
Owners get in touch after seeing an overflow, finding damp or planning ahead for winter. Landlords and managing agents use it to plan maintenance and buyers sometimes want the gutters looked at before they exchange. Whoever books, we inspect and report in the same way with photos and clear recommendations. We survey on weekdays and at weekends. We survey fascias and soffits, parapet and box gutters and outlets and hoppers, and people most often book us about overflowing valley or parapet gutters and hoppers and outlets full of debris.
In a small place like Middle Wallop, many roofs stand in the open, which is hard on ridges, chimneys, flashings and gutters. Damp in old walls is slow to dry, so a small leak can do a lot of harm. A written report sets out what to deal with and in what order. Lead flashings and old chimney stacks are frequently where weather gets in first.
You can share the report with anyone who needs it: your solicitor, the seller, your insurer, a roofer or the building’s managing agent, whichever applies.

Why get it checked now?
Overflowing water soaks the walls under the gutter. Given time, it can cause damp patches, damaged pointing and rot in nearby timber. Finding the cause now usually keeps the fix smaller. In a small place like Middle Wallop, homes can be exposed to wind and rain, which finds any gap, and older walls, once damp, take a long time to dry.
Prices quoted always include VAT, and the report isn’t charged as an extra. Our price is from £150, including VAT. Where your roof sits in the range depends on its size, height and access.

Tips from our surveys
A few practical points come up again and again on our surveys. They apply to most roofs:
- Look for green streaks or damp patches on walls
- Watch ceilings under valley gutters for fresh marks
- Get the gutters cleaned out every year
- Watch the gutters during heavy rain
Landlords and managing agents can keep the report with the building’s records and use it to plan upkeep. The photographs help when you explain the work to others.
Deal with drips, sags and loose downpipes early. They tend to get worse and spilled water harms brickwork and woodwork.
The survey, step by step
Photographs are taken throughout the visit, so you can see in the report what we found and where. We take close-ups from wherever is safe, including by drone where it’s applicable and the weather allows. Most surveys take roughly 1–2 hours at most homes, with bigger or more complicated roofs taking longer. Older rural homes like those around Middle Wallop can have a main roof, lower lean-to roofs and outbuildings all joined together. Each part is looked at from wherever it can be seen safely, and anything we cannot see is noted.
- First, we agree the areas to focus on.
- Each gutter run is checked for blockages, sags and leaking joints.
- Outlets, hoppers, downpipes and overflows are inspected.
- Fascias, soffits and the walls below are looked at for signs of overflow.
- Findings are photographed and set out in a written report.
How to prepare
- Keep pets inside or away from the areas we’re looking at
- Tell us about any leaks, stains or damp patches you know of
- Have keys ready for side gates, garages or roof access doors

Gutter surveys in Middle Wallop: local notes
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. On roofs like these, good slates or tiles can outlast the nails, battens, lead and mortar around them. 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.
The streets around a church such as Church of St Andrew are often among the oldest in a place, and if your home is one of the older ones nearby, its roof may have old fixings, lead flashings and chimneys that need a closer look. If you let a flat or house near Grateley station, knowing the condition of the roof, chimneys and gutters helps you plan work rather than react to complaints. If you look after a building such as Wallop Primary School, a written record of a large roof helps plan work for the holidays rather than in term time.

Will you look at parapet and box gutters as well?
Yes, as far as they can be seen safely. We look from vantage points, the loft space and the roof itself where safe, and by drone where it’s applicable.
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 though problems often show up after heavy rain.
Will you walk on the roof?

What you can safely check yourself
A lot can be seen from the ground. Binoculars help you spot slipped slates or tiles, gaps along the ridge and a leaning stack. Please do not climb up for a closer look.
A DIY look is useful, but it is not a survey. From ground level, valleys, flashings and the backs of chimneys are often out of sight.
