Gutter surveys for homes and businesses in Tatling End
Gutters have to slope gently towards the outlet to drain properly. When brackets sag or joints part, water pools, drips and spills over at the low points. We check the line of each run as far as we can see it, along with the brackets and downpipe fixings. Recommendations are written down and prioritised by urgency where relevant. Common reasons to book are overflowing eaves gutters and overflowing valley or parapet gutters, across parapet and box gutters, valley gutters and downpipes.
Older buildings in small places like Tatling End may be 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.
Every survey ends with a written report, with photographs, sent by email. It explains the condition of the gutter, the defects we found and what we recommend.

Tips that help
Small things make a difference. Some pointers:
- Check the loft with care after heavy rain
- Get trees that overhang the gutters trimmed
- Look out for overflows when it pours
- Check that downpipes are firmly fixed to the wall
The report comes with photos and clear written recommendations. Share it with a contractor of your choice so they know what needs doing.
Have your gutters cleared at least once a year or more frequently near trees. The best time is normally after the leaves have dropped. Clear gutters can carry water away as they should.
Local roofs in Tatling End
Some villages in Buckinghamshire still have thatched roofs. Across the South East, older homes tend to have slate or clay tiles, and many later ones concrete tiles. Each of these coverings has its own weak points, from fixings and valleys to flashings, chimneys and gutters. Ickenham Hall, about 4 miles east, is one of the historic houses in the wider area around Tatling End. On older houses around here, roofs often carry the marks of earlier repairs, from replaced slates to new lead, and a listed home or one in a conservation area may need consent for changes of material.
Landlords with a home close to Denham Golf Club station may find that the gap between tenancies is a good time to have the roof looked at. If you look after a building like The Gerrards Cross CofE School, a written record of a large roof helps plan work for the holidays rather than in term time. If you run a business near The Pavilions, a roof report helps plan work around trading rather than after a leak.

Your questions about gutter surveys in Tatling End
How do I find out if my home in Tatling End is listed?
Your council is the best source, with Historic England’s list for listed buildings. A change of roofing material may need consent in either case.
Do you survey roofs for landlords with property near Denham Golf Club station?
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.
How soon will I get the report?
Each package has its own report time. Basic: within 48 hours. Standard: 24 to 48 hours. Premium: the same day. Mention any deadline when you book.
What’s the price of a gutter survey?
Our packages start from £150 for Basic, £250 for Standard and £400 for Premium, inc. VAT. For a price for your building, call 07833 053749 or email us.
Does the season matter for a gutter survey?
Whenever suits you. If you’ve already seen a gutter overflowing, it is best not to wait, because the walls take the water.
Does this replace a RICS home survey?
No. Our survey is a roof survey, not a RICS Level 2 or Level 3 survey of the whole building. It focuses on the roof and can sit alongside a RICS survey.
Do you test soffits or gutters for asbestos?
No. We don’t carry out asbestos testing. Where gutters, downpipes or soffits could be asbestos cement, we flag them so a specialist asbestos surveyor can check before any work.
What we do, step by step
We check the roof from outside and, where it’s relevant and there is safe access, from inside the roof space too. In the loft, the signs we look for are staining, damp, daylight and sagging, as far as the space allows. The whole visit typically takes between one and two hours at a house, depending on how many gutter runs and downpipes there are. Cottages and farmhouses around Tatling End frequently have roofs at several levels, with lean-tos and outbuildings attached. Each part is looked at from wherever it can safely be seen, and anything we cannot see is noted.
- First, you let us know what you’ve seen, such as overflows or damp.
- Gutters, downpipes, fascias and soffits are inspected from safe vantage points.
- We check hidden gutters, such as valleys and parapets, where it is safe to see them.
- We look in the roof space, where there is safe access, for signs of water getting in.
- You get a written report with photos and recommendations.
Preparing for the visit
- Find any records of previous roof work
- For flats, make sure roof access has been agreed
- If you’re buying, check with the agent that we can get in

What happens if roof problems are left?
When a valley or parapet gutter blocks, the water has nowhere safe to go. It can overflow into the building usually during the worst downpours. Having them checked before autumn and winter makes sense. Where a roof is exposed, as many are in small places like Tatling End, driving rain gets into any weakness, and older walls, once damp, take a long time to dry.
Gutter survey starts from £150, including VAT. The final price depends on the size and height of the roof, how it can safely be seen and which survey you book.

Roof by roof
Cast iron gutters
Rust at joints and brackets is the usual weak point on cast iron. We note corrosion, cracks and leaking joints where they can be seen.
Fascias and soffits
Most gutters are fixed to the fascia, so a rotten fascia can let the gutter drop. We note soft, stained or damaged boards we can see.
What a gutter survey does not cover
We only report whatever is safely visible on the day, so some things are outside what a survey can do:
- Gutters out of sight from every safe viewpoint
- The inside of a downpipe along its whole length
- What’s behind fascias and inside walls
