What affects the price in Northbridge Street
To price your survey, we look at:
- Any need for thermal images or a drone flight
- House, block, shop or office
- The size of the roof
- Whether you choose the Basic, Standard or Premium Survey
Simple, low roofs take less time to survey than tall or complicated ones, and the package you pick makes a difference too. We’ll give you the figure before anything is booked.
Booking your survey
To price your survey accurately, we will ask about:
- Any deadline, such as an exchange date
- Why you want a survey: buying, a leak, a storm or new work
- Pictures of the roof from a safe spot, if you have them
- What kind of property and roof it is
If you have photos of the roof, send them over. Pictures from the ground or a window are fine. To send them or to book, ring 07833 053749 or drop us an email.
About our gutter survey in Northbridge Street
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. The survey and report follow the same steps whatever the reason with photos and clear recommendations. Visits can be on weekdays, Saturdays or Sundays. Common reasons to book are overflowing eaves gutters and choked outlets or hopper heads, across valley gutters, fascias and soffits and downpipes.
In a small place like Northbridge Street, 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.
Findings are set out part by part, from the main slopes down to the gutters and outlets, each with a short note and a photograph. You will see the good as well as the bad.

Before and after the survey
Small things make a difference. Some pointers:
- Keep climbers away from the eaves
- Watch for green marks down the brickwork
- Check downpipe clips are holding
- Check from ground level or a window, not a ladder
Report times depend on the package you choose: Basic within 48 hours, Standard in 24–48 hours and Premium the same day. We email it to you as soon as it’s ready.
Have overhanging branches and climbing plants cut back from the roof by someone who can do it safely. Fewer leaves in the gutters means fewer blockages.
Northbridge Street homes and their roofs
The wider area around Northbridge Street has a long history of building, with Durhamford Manor about 3.9 miles south-east. If you own one of the older houses, expect a mix of original materials and later repairs on the roof, and a listed home or one in a conservation area may need consent for changes of material. Older houses across Sussex often have handmade clay tiles, and many have tile-hanging on their upper walls. A few old Sussex buildings still carry heavy Horsham stone slabs, and the county’s older buildings include oast houses and Wealden hall houses. Whatever the covering, it is often the fixings, flashings, valleys and gutters that give out first.
For landlords with property near Robertsbridge station, a roof report helps you deal with small faults before they turn into a call from a tenant. If you live in an older home near The Parish Church of St Mary, its chimney, valleys and lead work are likely to be the parts that need attention first. Take a building like Salehurst Church of England Primary School: its roofs, gutters and any chimneys need the same checks as a house’s, just on a bigger scale.

What we do, step by step
Every visit follows the same pattern: we hear what you’ve seen, inspect the roof from every safe viewpoint, photograph what we find and record our findings for the written report. It usually takes roughly 1–2 hours on an ordinary house, though large, tall or awkward roofs take more time. Older rural homes like those around Northbridge Street can have a main roof, lower lean-to roofs and outbuildings all joined together. We work round each section in turn, from the safest viewpoints, and anything we can’t see is noted.
- First, you tell us what you’ve seen, such as overflows or damp.
- The eaves gutters, downpipes and fascias are looked at from the ground and vantage points.
- Valley, parapet and box gutters are inspected as far as they can safely be seen.
- Where the loft can be reached safely, we check it for staining or damp.
- You get a written report with photos and recommendations.
Getting ready for the survey
- Clear the way to the loft hatch
- Have any questions written down, so nothing gets missed
- Tell us about parking before the day

Questions from Northbridge Street
How do I find out if my home in Northbridge Street is listed?
You can check whether a building is listed on Historic England’s list, and your council can tell you if it is in a conservation area. If a home is listed, changes that affect its special interest need listed building consent, and in a conservation area re-roofing in different materials may need permission.
Is Northbridge Street within the area you cover?
Yes, Northbridge Street is on our map. Villages and rural addresses get the same survey as a town house.
Does someone need to be in?
Not always. An outside-only look can be arranged beforehand, but anything inside needs someone there to give access.
How do I book a survey in Northbridge Street?
It’s easiest to ring 07833 053749 or email us. Tell us the address and a little about the roof, and we will take it from there. We survey seven days a week.
How fast do I get the report?
Report times are set by the package. Basic: within 48 hours. Standard: 24 to 48 hours. Premium: the same day. Mention any deadline when you book.
What’s the price of a gutter survey?
Gutter survey starts from £150, including VAT. The price depends on the size of the building and how easy the gutters are to see. For a price, ring 07833 053749 or use the contact form.
Is a CCTV drain survey included?
No, CCTV drain work isn’t part of this survey. We check gutters, outlets, hoppers, downpipes and overflows and note any sign that the drains need checking.
Why act early in Northbridge Street
Clearing gutters removes the debris but it won’t explain why water keeps spilling over. We also check the falls, joints, brackets, outlets and downpipes, so you know whether there’s more to it. Around Northbridge Street, older homes frequently have old roof timbers, and water through a failed covering can rot timber if it is left.
There are three survey packages: Basic from £150, Standard from £250 and Premium from £400, with VAT included. What your roof costs depends on its size, access and what you want to find out.
What you get with us
