Common questions in Stubbings
Do you cover smaller places like Stubbings?
Yes, Stubbings is on our map. A small place gets exactly the same survey as a big one, with the route planned beforehand.
Can a landlord with a rental near Furze Platt station book a roof survey?
Yes, landlords and agents are among the people we work for. You can call 07833 053749 or send us an email with the address and what you need, and we will talk through which survey suits.
What insurance do you have?
We are covered by professional indemnity and public liability insurance.
Will you fly a drone over my roof?
Yes, where applicable and safe. We are a CAA-registered drone operator (Flyer ID and Operator ID), flying a sub-250g drone. Drone inspection is part of the Drone Roof Survey and the Premium Survey, where it applies.
Will you check the drains below ground?
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 soon will I get the report?
The Premium Survey report comes the same day, the Standard within 24–48 hours and the Basic within 48 hours. All of them come by email, ready to forward.
Can you give me structural calculations?
No. Our survey isn’t a structural engineer’s report. We’ll recommend an engineer if we see signs that call for one.
Gutter surveys for homes and businesses in Stubbings
Most blocked gutters are full of leaves, moss or silt. Buildings near trees collect more, and moss washing off a tiled or slate roof adds to it. We note where gutters are clogged or holding water and where outlets or hoppers are choked and whether any overflows are doing their job. Photos show each problem clearly. It’s an easy job to put off but it rarely improves. We survey eaves gutters, valley gutters and outlets and hoppers, and common reasons people get in touch are overflowing valley or parapet gutters and leaking or loose downpipes.
In a village or hamlet like Stubbings, older cottages and farmhouses often sit alongside barns, outbuildings and a few newer houses. Older roofs may be clay tile, slate, stone or thatch, frequently with chimneys that have stood a long time. We report on everything that’s safely in view, and thatch is a specialist material. On older roofs, it’s usually the chimneys and lead flashings that need work first.
With the Standard Survey, you also get moisture detection, a structural check and a follow-up consultation. The Premium Survey adds thermal imaging, drone inspection where applicable, structural analysis and an in-person consultation.

Why act early in Stubbings
Clearing gutters removes the debris, but it does not tell you why a gutter overflows. Our survey also looks at falls, joints, brackets, outlets and downpipes, so you know whether there is more to it. In a small place like Stubbings, homes can be exposed to wind and rain, which finds any gap, and older walls, once damp, take a long time to dry.
Every price we give includes VAT. Our price is from £150, including VAT. We confirm the exact price before booking.

Stubbings homes and their roofs
In this part of the South East, older roofs are mostly slate or clay tile and many newer ones concrete tile, with flat-roofed extensions, dormers and garages common everywhere. Each of these coverings has its own weak points, from fixings and valleys to flashings, chimneys and gutters. Harleyford Manor, about 2.2 miles north-west, is one of the historic houses in the wider area around Stubbings. Older roofs in the wider area can hide decades of patch repairs, so the detail matters, and any change of roofing material on a listed home needs checking with the council first.
If you own a rental within reach of Furze Platt station, the gap between tenancies is a good time to have the roof looked at. For site and facilities teams at buildings like Burchetts Green CofE Infants' School, a written record of a large roof helps plan work for the holidays rather than in term time.

Common roof problems in Stubbings
Gutter brackets work loose or corrode with age. A gutter full of wet debris is heavy, and that weight pulls sections out of line. Lose the fall and water gathers in the dip, then overflows.
People typically book a survey when they’ve noticed one of these:
- Overflowing valley or parapet gutters
- Brackets that have dropped or snapped
- Leaking or loose downpipes
- Rotten fascias or stained soffits
If your house is among the older ones in the streets near Church of St. James the Less, old fixings, lead flashings and tall chimneys are typical of older roofs.

About gutter survey
Practical tips
A survey works best with a little help from you, before and after. Some tips:
- Note any damp stains below the gutters
- Ask for valleys and parapet gutters to be cleared too
- Watch ceilings under valley gutters for fresh marks
- Leave gutter checks at height to someone equipped for it
For let and shared buildings, the report can go on file and use it to plan upkeep. The photos help when you explain the work to others.
Get small faults like a dripping joint or loose downpipe sorted quickly. They tend to get worse, and the water they spill can damage walls and timber.
What happens on the day
On the day, we begin with a quick chat about the roof and anything that’s worrying you. After that, we check everything we can see safely, from the ground, from windows, in the roof space and by drone where applicable. The survey normally takes about one to two hours at a house, depending on how many gutter runs and downpipes there are. In a hamlet or village like Stubbings, a postcode doesn’t always lead to the right gate, so a few directions are welcome. After that, the survey runs as it would anywhere.
- First, you tell us what you’ve seen, like overflows or damp.
- The eaves gutters, downpipes and fascias are checked from the ground and vantage points.
- Valley, parapet and box gutters are inspected as far as they can safely be seen.
- We look in the roof space, where there is safe access, for signs of water getting in.
- You get a report with photographs and recommendations.
Preparing for the visit
- Keep pets out of the way during the survey
- Gather any invoices or paperwork from past roof work
- Mention any parking restrictions on your street
