Honest limits

Gutter survey in Sarisbury
Eaves gutters at the front of a building are easy to spot, but many aren’t. Valley gutters between slopes, gutters behind parapet walls and box or secret gutters can send water indoors when they overflow. We look at them as far as they can safely be seen, from ground level, from windows, from the loft space and from the roof where it is safe. Hidden gutters are a common source of leaks inside. If you’re worried about leaves and moss blocking gutters and downpipes that are split or coming away, we can find out what’s behind it.
Around Sarisbury, gardens, hedges and nearby trees can mean leaves and moss end up on roofs and in gutters. Blocked gutters overflow and soak the walls below, and moss holds water against tiles. A report spots that kind of slow problem before it becomes damp inside. Moss on the roof and weeds in the gutter are both easy to spot from the ground.
You can share the report with anyone who needs it: your solicitor, the seller, your insurer, a roofer or the building’s managing agent.

Sarisbury homes and their roofs
The coast is about 3 miles or less from Sarisbury, and places near the sea get more salt in the air and more wind than inland. Salt is hard on nails, clips and metal flashings, and strong wind lifts anything already loose on a roof. Some Hampshire villages still have thatched roofs. Slate and clay tile are the usual coverings on older South East houses, with concrete tiles on many later estates. Knowing the covering helps explain which parts of a roof are likely to need work first.
If you own a rental within reach of Swanwick station, a roof report between tenancies helps plan work before a small defect becomes a tenant’s leak. For an older house near a landmark such as Church of St Paul, its chimney, valleys and lead work are likely to be the parts that need attention first. Anyone responsible for a site like Sarisbury Church of England Junior School will know that its roofs, gutters and any chimneys need the same checks as a house’s, just on a bigger scale.

What else we do in Sarisbury
Sarisbury: your questions answered
Do you cover smaller places like Sarisbury?
Yes, Sarisbury is covered. Our area covers London and South East England, and smaller places are part of that. Longer journeys are simply planned in advance.
How do I find out if my home in Sarisbury 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.
Will you walk on the roof?
Only where it is safe to do so. We inspect what can be seen safely: from ground level, from windows and vantage points, from the roof space, from the roof itself where safe and by drone where applicable. Anything we cannot see is noted in the report.
Do you survey underground drains?
No, we do not carry out CCTV drain surveys. We check gutters, outlets, hoppers, downpipes and overflows and flags signs of a drain problem.
How do I arrange a gutter survey in Sarisbury?
It’s easiest to phone 07833 053749 or drop us an email. Give us the address and some details about the roof, and we’ll suggest the right survey. We survey on weekdays and at weekends.
When is the best time for a gutter survey?
Any time of year works. Booking before autumn and winter gives you time to plan though problems frequently show up after heavy rain.
Could my damp wall be caused by the gutters?
Overflowing gutters often lead to damp walls, and we check for exactly that. If the evidence points elsewhere, we’ll say so as far as we can tell from what’s visible.
What affects the price in Sarisbury
Prices vary from roof to roof, for these reasons:
- The shape of the roof and its details
- Whether you choose the Basic, Standard or Premium Survey
- The size of the roof
- Any need for thermal images or a drone flight
The cost of a survey depends on the roof: how big it is, how high it is, the number of separate roofs and how safely it can be seen. Prices start from £150, including VAT.
Booking your survey

- Pictures of the roof from a safe spot, if you have them

How the survey works
After the inspection, everything we found is written up as a report with photographs. As for time on site, it typically takes about one to two hours at a typical home, and more on a big or complicated roof. Homes around Sarisbury often have gardens on more than one side, which gives us room to step back and see the roof. Let us know if any side is fenced off or hard to reach. Inside, the loft is checked where it can be reached safely.
- We start by hearing about any drips, overflows or damp patches.
- We look along the gutters, downpipes and fascias from ground level and from windows.
- We check hidden gutters, such as valleys and parapets, where it is safe to see them.
- The roof space is checked for water marks if it’s safe to get into.
- We send a written report with photos and clear recommendations.
How to prepare
- Let us know about parking near the property
- Check the loft hatch can be reached
- Have keys ready for side gates, garages or roof access doors
