Gutter survey in Titchfield Park

People book a gutter survey when gutters overflow, when damp appears or before the wetter months. Landlords and managing agents use the report to plan upkeep, and some buyers want the rainwater system checked before exchange. Whoever books, we inspect and report in the same way, with photos and written recommendations. Visits can be on weekdays, Saturdays or Sundays. Typical surveys look at overflowing valley or parapet gutters and leaks at the gutter joints, across outlets and hoppers, downpipes and parapet and box gutters.

Village roofs often face open fields and take the full force of wind and rain, which is hard on ridges, chimneys, flashings and gutters. Older walls take a long time to dry once water gets in. A roof report shows what needs attention first. Lead flashings and old chimney stacks are often where weather gets in first.

Most points in the report come with a picture, because a photo of a cracked flashing says more than a paragraph. If something couldn’t be seen safely, the report is clear about it.

Titchfield Park questions

Is the coastal weather around Titchfield Park hard on roofs?

Near the coast, roofs face more wind and more salt than further inland. Salt corrodes metal fixings and flashings, and wind lifts loose slates, tiles and ridge pieces.

Can a landlord with a rental near Swanwick station book a roof survey?

Yes, landlords and agents are among the people we work for. You can phone 07833 053749 or drop us an email with the address and what you need.

When is the best time for a gutter survey?

Any time of year works. Booking before autumn and winter gives you time to plan though problems often show up after heavy rain.

Is Titchfield Park in your area?

Yes. Our area covers London and South East England, Titchfield Park included.

Does this replace a RICS home survey?

No. We check the roof, not the whole building, so it’s not a RICS Level 2 or Level 3 survey. Many buyers have both.

Will I get photos?

Yes. We photograph the roof as we go, and the report uses them to show each finding alongside our recommendations.

Do you test soffits or gutters for asbestos?

No, that’s a job for a specialist asbestos surveyor. On buildings from before 2000, we flag materials that could contain it so you can arrange that check.

How the survey changes by roof type

Cast iron gutters

Rust at joints and brackets is the usual weak point on cast iron. Cracks, rust and leaks are recorded as far as we can see them.

Aluminium and other metal gutters

Long metal gutter runs on larger buildings can hide blocked outlets so outlets get close attention.

What happens on the day

Photographs are taken throughout the visit, so the report shows exactly what we saw. We take close-ups from wherever is safe. Most surveys take roughly 1–2 hours on an ordinary house, rising to roughly 3–4 hours on a commercial building. Somewhere like Titchfield Park needs a little journey planning: let us know about lanes, gates and parking. The roof is looked at from the ground, from windows, from the loft where there’s safe access and from the roof where it is safe.

  1. We agree which parts of the building you are most worried about.
  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. Findings are photographed and set out in a written report.

Before the survey

  • Clear the way to the loft hatch
  • Let us know about parking near the property
  • Note where any stains or damp appear

Tips that help

These tips come from what we see on roofs every week, before and after a survey:

  • Get trees that overhang the gutters trimmed
  • Look for downpipes coming loose
  • Get the gutters cleaned out every year
  • Include valley, parapet and box gutters when clearing

The report comes with photos and clear written recommendations. You can pass it to whoever you choose to do the work so they know what needs doing.

Get the gutters cleared every year or more frequently near trees. Late autumn, after the leaves have fallen, is a sensible time. Clear gutters can carry water away as they should.

Titchfield Park homes and their roofs

The coast is about 3 miles or less from Titchfield Park, so there is more wind and more salt in the air than further inland. Metal fixings and flashings corrode faster in salt air, while gales work at loose ridges, slates and tiles. Older buildings may be listed or sit in a conservation area. To find out, check Historic England’s list and ask the council about conservation areas. Re-roofing in different materials may need permission there.

Shop and office owners around Fareham Shopping Centre may find that a roof report helps plan work around trading rather than after a leak. If you let a flat or house near Swanwick station, a roof report helps you deal with small faults before they turn into a call from a tenant.

Leave it or get it looked at?

Going up a ladder to check your own gutters carries real risk. From ground level you can spot drips and overflows, but valleys, parapets and box gutters are hard to see. Our survey covers whatever is safely visible and records it with photos. Matching old materials, such as handmade tiles or stone slates, can take time to source. Spotting a problem early leaves room to find them.

Price depends partly on the package: Basic from £150, Standard from £250 or Premium from £400, all with VAT included. Size, height and access can affect the price too.

Why us?

  • Customer satisfaction of 98%
  • Over 20 years’ experience

What we’re asked to look at in Titchfield Park

Leaves are behind most blocked gutters. Nearby trees drop leaves, twigs and seeds into gutters every autumn, and they collect at the outlets. A choked outlet soon means a full, overflowing gutter.

Typical things we are asked to look at include:

  • Gutters packed with leaves or moss
  • Overflowing eaves gutters
  • Valley or box gutters that overflow inside
  • Sagging gutters and loose brackets

The streets around a church like St John are often among the oldest in a place, and if your house is among the older ones nearby, its roof may have old fixings, lead flashings and chimneys that need a closer look.

Choosing a roof surveyor

  • Are they insured for the work?
  • How long the report takes to arrive
  • Is there a chance to talk the report through?
  • Whether any drone flown is registered with the CAA
