Gutter survey in Westfield, Surrey
A survey of gutters, valleys, outlets and downpipes in Westfield. More than 5,000 surveys completed across London and South East England.
- Gutters full of debris and silt
- Downpipes that are split or coming away
- Fascia boards damaged by overflowing water
Checking the roof from the ground
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.
Look up at the roof after a storm, from ground level: pieces of tile or slate on the ground, a gap in the ridge or a lifted flashing are all worth noting. Do not go up yourself.
Gutter survey in Westfield
We survey gutters and rainwater systems in Westfield and right across London and the South East. We inspect everything we can see safely from the ground, windows, the roof space and the roof where it’s safe. Time on site normally takes about 1–2 hours for most houses, or half a day or so for a commercial building. Afterwards, you get a written report with photos and recommendations. Typical surveys look at water backing up from a hidden gutter and water spilling over the gutter edge, across valley gutters, parapet and box gutters and fascias and soffits.
In a smaller place like Westfield, some roofs stand more exposed to wind and rain than in a built-up town. Ridge tiles, verges, chimney stacks and flashings take the worst of it. A close look shows whether anything has started to loosen before it lets water in. Once one ridge tile or slate moves, wind gets under the next one too.
You receive the findings by email, easy to pass on to a roofer, an agent or an insurer. Turnaround is within 48 hours for Basic, 24–48 hours for Standard and same day for Premium.

What affects the cost of gutter surveys
Prices vary from roof to roof, for these reasons:
- Extra roofs, like extensions, dormers or garages
- Roof area
- Whether thermal imaging or a drone is needed
- Height and safe access
Gutter survey starts from £150, including VAT. Basic starts from £150, Standard from £250 and Premium from £400, VAT included, and we’ll tell you which fits.
What we need to know
We will typically ask about:
- Any photos you have, taken from ground level or a window
- Your timetable, like an exchange date
- Access details, such as a loft hatch or a shared roof
- Where water is showing inside, if it is
Our phone lines are open seven days a week. For a price or to book, ring 07833 053749 or send us an email.
Why get it checked now?
A written report gives you a dated record of the gutters’ condition, which helps when you plan work or brief a contractor. Without one, it is guesswork from ground level. In an older home around Westfield, water from a roof defect can get into timber and plaster, and that is a much bigger job than the original defect.
Every price we give includes VAT, and the report isn’t charged as an extra. Prices start from £150, including VAT. Where your roof sits in the range depends on its size, height and access.

Will you check if gutters are causing damp inside?

The survey, step by step
We photograph the roof as we go, so you can see in the report what we found and where. We take close-ups from wherever is safe, including by drone where it’s applicable and the weather allows. A typical visit takes about 1–2 hours at most homes, and longer for a large or complex roof. Homes around Westfield often have gardens on more than one side, which gives us room to step back and see the roof. Mention any side of the property we can’t get to. The loft, where there is safe access, completes the picture.
- First, we agree the areas to focus on.
- We look along each run for debris, sagging and drips.
- Outlets, hoppers, downpipes and overflows are inspected.
- We check fascias, soffits and walls for water damage.
- Findings are photographed and set out in a written report.
Before we arrive
- Move anything stored under the loft hatch
- If you’re buying, check with the agent that we can get in
- Unlock side gates and any roof access doors

Gutter surveys around Westfield
Handmade clay tiles and tile-hung walls are typical of Surrey’s older houses. Horsham stone slab roofs survive on some old buildings in Surrey. Each of these coverings has its own weak points, from fixings and valleys to flashings, chimneys and gutters. With Clandon Park about 4.1 miles south-east, Westfield sits in an area with a long building history. Period homes nearby can have lead valleys, tall chimneys and a patchwork of past repairs, and the council can say whether a home is in a conservation area.
If you live near a park such as Hoe Valley Linear Park, or anywhere with mature trees, autumn leaves can block gutters and valleys. If yours is one of the older homes in the streets near St Mark's Church, the nails, lead and mortar on the roof may be wearing out even where the slates or tiles look fine. For landlords with property near Woking station, a dated record of the roof is useful when planning maintenance across a let.
