Gutter survey in Quarley, Hampshire
Gutter surveys across Quarley, with over 20 years’ experience behind it. Every survey ends with a written report and photographs.
- Gutters full of debris and silt
- Sagging gutters and loose brackets
- Soffits marked by water
What we do, step by step
You do not need to do much on the day. Show us any stains, drips or problem areas you know about, and we will take it from there. The survey itself takes about 1–2 hours for a house, with bigger or more complicated roofs taking longer. Around Quarley, older homes can have small or awkward roof spaces, so it’s useful to know whether there is a loft hatch and how easy it is to reach. Only areas that can be reached safely are inspected.
- We ask about overflows, damp or leaks you’ve noticed.
- Gutters, downpipes, fascias and soffits are inspected from safe vantage points.
- We check hidden gutters, such as valleys and parapets, where it is safe to see them.
- Where the loft can be reached safely, we check it for staining or damp.
- You get a photo-illustrated written report and recommendations.
Before we arrive
- For a flat or shared roof, check access with whoever owns or manages the building
- Keep pets in another room
- Buyers: confirm access with the estate agent or seller

Advice
Gutter survey in Quarley: what you get
Your gutters take the rain from the roof and lead it away from the walls. If they clog, drip or sag, the water ends up somewhere it shouldn’t, frequently down the brickwork or into the building. We check the full rainwater system above ground, from eaves gutters and valleys to outlets, hoppers and downpipes. The findings go into a written report with photos. We survey eaves gutters, outlets and hoppers and valley gutters, and the problems we are asked to look at most are brackets that have dropped or snapped and overflowing eaves gutters.
Somewhere as small as Quarley, homes are often older cottages and farmhouses, with outbuildings and some newer houses. Roofs there can be clay tile, slate, stone or thatch, and chimney stacks are often old. Each needs checking in its own way, and thatch is a specialist material we report on as far as it can be seen. Chimneys and lead flashings on old roofs often need the most attention.
The report is written in plain words, so you don’t need to be a roofer to follow it. Each point is backed by a photograph where possible, and recommendations are put in order of urgency where relevant.

When to book a survey in Quarley
Some gutters may be too small, or have too few downpipes, for the roof they serve. Added roof area from an extension can load an older gutter, and a heavy downpour shows up the problem.
Typical things we’re asked to look at include:
- Valley or box gutters that overflow inside
- Sagging gutters and loose brackets
- Rotten fascias or stained soffits
- Gutters full of debris and silt
If you live in an older home near Church of St Michael, corroded nails, tired lead and weathered chimney pointing are the things to watch on older roofs.
Questions to ask before you book
- Whether VAT is added on top
- Which parts of the roof they’ll actually see
- Are they insured for the work?
- Whether the inside of the roof is included
How the survey changes by roof type
Plastic (uPVC) gutters
Plastic rainwater systems are common on homes of many ages. As the seals age, joints can start to drip and brackets may drop under the weight of debris.
Lead-lined valley and parapet gutters
Lead gutters need their linings, steps and outlets in good order as far as they can be seen safely. Lead is also a target for theft.
What this survey cannot tell you
We only report whatever is safely visible on the day, so some things are outside what a survey can do:
- Pipes below ground level
- Blockages deep inside downpipes
- Gutters out of sight from every safe viewpoint

Your questions about gutter surveys in Quarley
Can a landlord with a rental near Grateley station book a roof survey?
Yes. We survey roofs for landlords, letting agents and managing agents as well as owners. Just ring 07833 053749 or email us with the details.
How do I find out if my home in Quarley is listed?
You can check whether a building is listed on Historic England’s list, and your council can tell you if it’s 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.
Can you inspect my roof with a drone?
Yes, where it’s applicable. Flights depend on the weather on the day and airspace rules. We hold a CAA Flyer ID and Operator ID.
How long does a gutter survey take?
Most visits to a house take about 1–2 hours, with commercial buildings nearer 3–4 hours.
What does the report include?
It explains what we saw, what it means and what we’d suggest, with photographs throughout. Anything we couldn’t see safely is noted too, so you know exactly what was covered.
What do I do with the report?
The report comes by email, and what you do next is up to you: use it with a seller, an insurer, a roofer or a managing agent.
Do I have to be there for the survey?
It depends on what we need to see. Inside the building and in the loft, we need someone to let us in.

Gutter surveys in Quarley: local notes
Older buildings may be listed or sit in a conservation area. To find out, check Historic England’s list and ask the council about conservation areas. In either case, a change of roofing material may need consent. Thatch survives on some older buildings in Hampshire’s villages. In this part of the South East, older roofs are mostly slate or clay tile and many newer ones concrete tile. Whichever you have, the details that tend to fail before the covering itself get the closest look.
