Gutter surveys near Stubbington

Rented homes, blocks and businesses

Surveys can also be booked by buyers’ agents acting for a client. The report is emailed, so it can go straight to your client, photos included.

For blocks of flats, a roof survey helps managing agents and residents’ management companies plan ahead. The report sets out what needs attention now and what can wait, which helps when budgeting.

Gutter survey in Stubbington

Owners get in touch after seeing an overflow, finding damp or planning ahead for winter. Landlords and managing agents use the report to plan upkeep and buyers sometimes want the gutters looked at before they exchange. The survey and report follow the same steps whatever the reason with photos and clear recommendations. Visits can be on weekdays, Saturdays or Sundays. If you are worried about joints that drip after rain and valley or box gutters that overflow inside, a survey will tell you what’s going on, whatever the roof.

Trees around homes in smaller places like Stubbington drop leaves, twigs and moss onto roofs and into gutters. Blocked gutters overflow and soak the walls below, and moss holds water against tiles. It’s the kind of slow problem a roof report picks up early. Moss on the roof and weeds in the gutter are both easy to spot from the ground.

Every survey ends with a written report, with photos, emailed to you. It sets out the condition of the gutter, any defects and our written recommendations.

FAQs for Stubbington

Is Stubbington within the area you cover?

Yes. Stubbington is within the area we cover, which takes in towns, villages and rural addresses. We work right across London and South East England. Just mention lanes, gates or anything else about the route when booking.

Do you survey roofs for landlords with property near Fareham station?

Yes. We survey roofs for landlords, letting agents and managing agents as well as owners. You can phone 07833 053749 or email us with the address and what you need, and we will talk through which survey suits.

Will you check the drains below ground?

No. Our gutter survey covers rainwater above ground, from the gutters to the bottom of the downpipes. Where a below-ground drain seems to be the problem, we’ll tell you.

Do I need to be at home?

Not always. If we only need the outside, we can agree that ahead of time, but the loft and any rooms with damp need someone to let us in.

Do you survey roofs on blocks of flats?

Yes, once access has been agreed. Roofs over flats are often shared, so the building owner or managing agent needs to agree access. We can only inspect what we’re given access to.

Is a Saturday or Sunday visit possible?

Yes, we carry out surveys on Saturdays and Sundays as well as weekdays. To book, call 07833 053749 or use the contact form.

Will you look at parapet and box gutters as well?

Yes. These gutters often cause leaks indoors when they block so we pay close attention to them. Some may only be partly visible, and the report says so.

The survey, step by step

It’s useful to start with what’s prompted the survey: a purchase, a leak, a storm, new work or simply peace of mind. That way we can focus on what matters to you. The visit usually takes roughly 1–2 hours on an ordinary house, while a commercial roof takes nearer three to four hours. In a smaller place like Stubbington, parking is seldom the issue; lanes, gates and long drives are worth mentioning. Low roofs on bungalows can often be seen well from ground level, and the loft shows the rest, while taller roofs may need other vantage points or the drone where applicable.

  1. First, we agree the areas to focus on.
  2. We look along each run for debris, sagging and drips.
  3. We check the outlets, hoppers, downpipes and any overflows.
  4. We check fascias, soffits and walls for water damage.
  5. You get photos and written recommendations, prioritised where relevant.

How to prepare

  • If it isn’t your property yet, arrange access through the agent
  • Have any paperwork from past roof work to hand
  • Point out any leaks or damp patches

Booking a survey

Our phone lines are open seven days a week. For a price or to book, phone 07833 053749 or send us an email.

Roofs, chimneys and gutters in Stubbington

The coast is about 1 mile or less from Stubbington, where sea air brings more salt and stronger wind than inland. Salt is hard on nails, clips and metal flashings, and strong wind lifts anything already loose on a roof, and driving rain gets into whatever gap is left. Before planning roof work on an older home, find out whether it is listed or in a conservation area. Listed building consent covers changes to a listed building’s special interest, and an Article 4 direction can bring extra controls in a conservation area.

If you live in an older home near Holy Rood Church, its roof may have old fixings, lead flashings and chimneys that need a closer look. Landlords with a home close to Fareham station may find that knowing the condition of the roof, chimneys and gutters helps you plan work rather than react to complaints. For businesses in and around places like Fareham Shopping Centre, a written record of the roof’s condition helps you plan maintenance rather than react to leaks.

Leave it or get it looked at?

A blocked valley or parapet gutter doesn’t spill harmlessly. It can overflow into the building typically during the worst downpours. It is worth having these gutters looked at before the wetter months. Blocked gutters on homes around Stubbington overflow and soak walls. It’s easy to sort the cause early and slow to dry a damp wall.

There are three survey packages: the Basic Survey from £150, the Standard Survey from £250 and the Premium Survey from £400, with VAT included. The price for your roof depends on its size, access and what you need to know.

Can I check my roof myself?

Keep a simple record: dates of leaks, photos from the ground and any work done on the roof. Share it with us as you book.

A lot can be seen from the ground. With binoculars, look for slipped or missing slates and tiles, gaps along the ridge and leaning chimneys. Please don’t climb up for a closer look.

Before and after the survey

A little preparation and a few simple habits help. Some pointers:

  • Have overhanging branches cut back
  • Check downpipe clips are holding
  • Leave gutter checks at height to someone equipped for it
  • Get the gutters cleaned out every year

The report comes with photos and clear written recommendations. Share it with a contractor of your choice so they can see exactly what’s needed.

Get small faults like a dripping joint or loose downpipe sorted quickly. Left alone, they normally grow and spilled water harms brickwork and woodwork.

  • The use of thermal imaging or a drone
