Gutter survey in Spanish Green: what you get
Eaves gutters at the front of a building are easy to spot but a good many gutters are tucked away. Valley, parapet, box and secret gutters can overflow inside the building when they block. We inspect them as far as it’s safe to see them using vantage points, the roof space and the roof itself where safe. Hidden gutters are a common source of leaks inside. We survey fascias and soffits, downpipes and outlets and hoppers, and the problems we’re asked to look at most are fascia boards damaged by overflowing water and gutters full of debris and silt.
Some older homes in villages like Spanish Green are listed or in a conservation area. If yours is, re-roofing in different materials may need consent, so the council is the place to check. Knowing the roof’s condition helps you plan ahead with that in mind. Where a building is listed, matching the existing roof materials is frequently expected.
After the visit, you get a written report with photos, emailed to you. It sets out the condition of the gutter, any defects and our written recommendations.

Spanish Green questions
I let a flat near Bramley (Hants) station. Can you check the roof?
Yes, that is a common request. We just need to know who will give access, and we can send the report to you or your agent.
Does a conservation area affect roof work in Spanish Green?
We can’t confirm that for you, but Historic England’s list and your council can. A change of roofing material may need consent in either case, and councils can also use Article 4 directions.
Will you go up on the roof?
Only when it is safe. Safety comes first, and fragile or steep roofs can’t always be walked on. Safe viewpoints, the loft and a drone where applicable let us see the rest, and the report records anything we couldn’t see.
Do you use drones?
Where it helps and it’s safe, yes. Flights depend on the weather on the day and airspace rules, including flight restriction zones near airports. We are a CAA-registered drone operator.
How long does a gutter survey take?
For a house, expect about 1–2 hours on site, and longer for larger or complex roofs.
What do I do with the report?
We email you the written report with photos and recommendations. It is yours to share with a seller, insurer, roofer or managing agent, whichever applies.
Can a gutter survey explain damp on my walls?
Leaking gutters and downpipes are a common cause of damp walls, and the survey looks for that. If the cause looks like something else, the report says so as far as we can tell from what’s visible.
Why get it checked now?
A gutter clear-out takes the leaves away, but it doesn’t tell you why a gutter overflows. Our survey also looks at falls, joints, brackets, outlets and downpipes to show whether something else is wrong. Older and listed buildings around Spanish Green may need consent and matching materials for repairs, so a defect found early gives time to plan the work properly.

What we do, step by step
We work from the outside in: first the slopes, edges and gutters from every safe viewpoint, then the loft space where it can be reached. In total, it takes about 1–2 hours for most homes, and longer where there are parapet, valley or box gutters to follow. Cottages and farmhouses around Spanish Green often have roofs at several levels, with lean-tos and outbuildings attached. We work round each section in turn, from the safest viewpoints.
- We start with what you’ve noticed, like damp or overflowing gutters.
- The eaves gutters, downpipes and fascias are checked from ground level and windows.
- Valleys, parapets and box gutters are inspected where they can be seen safely.
- Where it’s safe, we check the loft for signs of water.
- A report with photos and recommendations follows.
How to prepare
- Have any paperwork from past roof work to hand
- Let us know about parking before the day
- Have keys ready for side gates, garages or roof access doors

How the survey changes by roof type
Lead-lined valley and parapet gutters
Lead linings are common in valleys and parapet gutters on older houses. Splits and failed joints in the lead can let water straight in.
Aluminium and other metal gutters
Metal gutters are common on commercial buildings and some homes. Joints, outlets and fixings are the parts we focus on.
Rented homes, blocks and businesses
For blocks of flats, a roof survey helps managing agents and residents’ management companies plan ahead. Recommendations are set out with the most urgent first where relevant.
Landlords and agents in Spanish Green book surveys as well as homeowners. The report gives you a dated record of the gutter, with photographs, useful for planning maintenance.

Roofs, chimneys and gutters in Spanish Green
About 1.8 miles north lies Stratfield Saye House, a reminder of how long the area around Spanish Green has been built on. If your home is one of the older ones, 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. A number of Hampshire villages keep thatched roofs on their older buildings. Slate and clay tile are the usual coverings on older South East houses, with concrete tiles on many later estates. On roofs like these, good slates or tiles can outlast the nails, battens, lead and mortar around them.
For site and facilities teams at buildings such as Daneshill School, large buildings have long gutter runs and big roofs that need checking like any other. The streets around a church like Church of St Mary the Blessed Virgin are often among the oldest in a place, and if your home is one of the older ones nearby, its roof may have old fixings, lead flashings and chimneys that need a closer look.

Choosing a roof surveyor
- How they’ll see the roof: from ground level, the loft, the roof or by drone
- How much experience they have with roofs like yours
- What follow-up you get after the report
- Will the report include photos?
What a survey costs
Our packages start from £150, inc. VAT. The price for your roof depends on:
- Height and safe access
- The roof’s overall size
- Extra roofs, like extensions, dormers or garages
- Whether you choose the Basic, Standard or Premium Survey
Larger roofs, taller buildings and commercial roofs take longer, so the price reflects that. You’ll know the figure before booking.
Booking your survey
We will normally ask about:
- The style of property, from a terrace to a block
- Your postcode, so we can check access and travel
- Any deadline, such as an exchange date
- Pictures of the roof from a safe spot, if you have them
If you have photos of the roof, send them over. Take them safely from ground level or a window; never climb up to get a better view. To send them or to book, phone 07833 053749 or drop us an email.
