Gutter surveys for homes and businesses in Redenham

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, often down the brickwork or into the building. Our survey looks at the whole rainwater system above ground, from eaves gutters and valleys to outlets, hoppers and downpipes. The findings go into a written report with photos. If you’ve noticed leaves and moss blocking gutters and overflowing eaves gutters, we can find out what’s behind it.

Somewhere as small as Redenham, homes are often older cottages and farmhouses, with outbuildings and some newer houses. Older roofs may be clay tile, slate, stone or thatch, often with chimneys that have stood a long time. Each needs checking in its own way, and thatch is a specialist material we report on as far as it can be seen. On older roofs, it’s usually the chimneys and lead flashings that need work first.

Findings are set out part by part, from the coverings down to the gutters. You’ll see the good as well as the bad.

What happens if roof problems are left?

Water spilling from a gutter runs down and soaks the wall below. Given time, it can cause damp patches, damaged pointing and rot in nearby timber. Finding the cause now typically keeps the fix smaller. Where a roof is exposed, as many are in small places like Redenham, driving rain gets into any weakness, and older walls, once damp, take a long time to dry.

Common questions in Redenham

Can a landlord with a rental near Andover station book a roof survey?

Yes, landlords and agents are among the people we work for. You can ring 07833 053749 or email us with the address and what you need, and we will talk through which survey suits.

Will you come out to Redenham?

Yes. Redenham is within the area we cover, which takes in towns, villages and rural addresses. We cover the whole of London and South East England. Let us know about access, parking and anything unusual about getting there when you book.

Will you go up on the roof?

Not unless it is safe. Most of what we need can be seen from safe viewpoints, the loft and, where applicable, a drone, and anything out of sight is recorded in the report.

Could my damp wall be caused by the gutters?

Overflowing gutters often lead to damp walls, and the survey looks for that. If the evidence points elsewhere, we will say so as far as we can tell from what’s visible.

What happens next?

You’ll receive the report by email, and what you do next is up to you: use it with a seller, an insurer, a roofer or a managing agent.

Can you give me structural calculations?

No. We are roof surveyors, not structural engineers, and it doesn’t include calculations. We’ll recommend an engineer if we see signs that call for one.

Does the report include photographs?

Yes. Photographs are part of every report.

Local roofs in Redenham

What can be done to an older roof may depend on listing or a conservation area. The council is the place to check, along with Historic England’s list, ideally before any re-roofing is planned. A number of Hampshire villages keep thatched roofs on their older buildings. In this part of the South East, older roofs are mostly slate or clay tile and many newer ones concrete tile. On roofs like these, good slates or tiles can outlast the nails, battens, lead and mortar around them.

Take a building like Appleshaw St Peter's CofE Primary School: a written record of a large roof helps plan work for the holidays rather than in term time. Landlords with a home close to Andover station may find that a roof report helps you deal with small faults before they turn into a call from a tenant. For an older house near a landmark such as Church of St Peter in the Wood, its chimney, valleys and lead work are likely to be the parts that need attention first.

DIY checks: what’s safe

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. Leave anything above ground level to a survey.

Inside, the loft is a good place to look, with care. Take a torch and only step on boards or joists, checking for stains, damp wood or chinks of daylight.

How it works

The visit has one job: to look at the gutter as closely as is safe and record what we find. Notes and photographs go into the written report. It normally takes about one to two hours for most homes, and longer where there are parapet, valley or box gutters to follow. Older roofs in small places like Redenham can have low, tight loft spaces, so it helps to know whether there’s a loft hatch and how easy it is to reach. We only go where it’s safe.

  1. We ask about overflows, damp or leaks you’ve noticed.
  2. We look along the gutters, downpipes and fascias from the ground and from windows.
  3. We check hidden gutters, such as valleys and parapets, where it’s safe to see them.
  4. The loft space is checked for water marks if it is safe to get into.
  5. We send a written report with photos and clear recommendations.

Getting ready for the survey

  • Leave side gates unlocked
  • Let us know about parking near the property
  • Have any paperwork from past roof work to hand
