About our gutter survey in Send
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 and that usually means the walls or the inside of the building. We check the full rainwater system above ground, including gutters, valleys, outlets, hoppers and downpipes. You get a report with photos. We are often asked to look into sagging gutters and loose brackets and overflowing valley or parapet gutters, on outlets and hoppers, fascias and soffits and valley gutters.
Trees around homes in smaller places like Send drop leaves, twigs and moss onto roofs and into 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.
The written findings come by email, easy to pass on to a roofer, an agent or an insurer. Turnaround is within 48 hours for Basic, 24–48 hours for Standard and same day for Premium.

Send questions
Does a conservation area affect roof work in Send?
Start with Historic England’s list for listing and your council for conservation areas. It’s worth checking before planning roof work, as both can affect what’s allowed.
I let a flat near Clandon station. Can you check the roof?
Yes, landlords and agents are among the people we work for. You can phone 07833 053749 or email us with the address and what you need, and we’ll talk through which survey suits.
How do I arrange a gutter survey in Send?
To book, ring 07833 053749 or use the contact form and let us know the address and what you need to know. We’ll confirm the price and find a day that suits.
Will you check the loft?
Yes, where the survey calls for it and there’s safe access. Inside, we look for damp, staining, gaps and sagging, as far as the space allows.
Do you carry professional indemnity insurance?
Professional indemnity and public liability insurance cover our surveys. Ask if you need details for a managing agent or building owner.
Is this a RICS survey?
No. It is a specialist roof survey, not a RICS Level 2 or Level 3 building survey. It focuses on the roof and can sit alongside a RICS survey.
Is there a good time of year to book a gutter survey?
There’s no wrong time. If you’ve already seen a gutter overflowing, it is best not to wait, because the walls take the water.
Why act early in Send
A gutter clear-out takes the leaves away, but it does not tell you why a gutter overflows. We also check the falls, joints, brackets, outlets and downpipes to show whether something else is wrong. Around Send, leaves and moss in gutters lead to overflowing water and damp walls, particularly where trees overhang. Dealing with the cause is simple; drying out a wall is not.
Gutter survey starts from £150, including VAT. What you pay depends on the size and height of the roof, how it can be seen safely and the package you choose.
Why us?
- 5,000+ roofs surveyed
- Insured for professional indemnity and public liability

Roof by roof
Lead-lined valley and parapet gutters
Many older homes have lead-lined valley and parapet gutters. A split lining can leak straight into the building.
Aluminium and other metal gutters
Metal gutters can suffer at joints and where different metals meet. Any leaks or corrosion we spot go in the report.
Landlord and commercial surveys in Send
Surveys can also be booked by buyers’ agents acting for a client. The report is emailed, so it can go straight to your client, photographs included.
Where a roof is shared: we need access agreed with the building owner or managing agent. Mention it when you contact us and we’ll plan the visit with that in mind.
How the survey works
The aim of the visit is simple: to look at the gutter as closely as is safe and record what we find. Everything we note and photograph goes into the written report. The visit normally takes an hour or two at a typical home, with bigger or more complicated roofs taking longer. With a bit of garden around a house, as there often is around Send, the roof can be viewed from several angles. Mention any side of the property we cannot get to. Inside, the loft is checked where it can be reached safely.
- 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.
- You get photos and written recommendations, prioritised where relevant.
How to prepare
- Keep pets in another room
- For flats, make sure roof access has been agreed
- Buyers: confirm access with the estate agent or seller
How to book
You can call us seven days a week, including Saturdays and Sundays. For a price or to book, ring 07833 053749 or drop us an email.
Advice
Gutter surveys around Send
Historic houses such as Clandon Park, about 2.9 miles south, show how far back building in the area around Send goes. Period homes nearby can have lead valleys, tall chimneys and a patchwork of past repairs, and a listed home or one in a conservation area may need consent for changes of material. Many older homes in Surrey have handmade clay tiles and tile-hung upper walls. Some old buildings in Surrey and Sussex have Horsham stone slab roofs. Whatever the covering, it’s frequently the fixings, flashings, valleys and gutters that give out first.
Homes near green spaces like White Rose Lane can get more leaves in their gutters in autumn. If you let a flat or house near Clandon station, a roof report helps you deal with small faults before they turn into a call from a tenant. Take a building like Send CofE Primary School: large buildings have long gutter runs and big roofs that need checking like any other.
