Hills Roofing Ltd provides a full guttering service in Surrey for homeowners across the whole county, from Sutton and Cheam in the north to Epsom, Guildford, and the surrounding villages. We clean, repair, and replace guttering systems on all Surrey property types, from 1930s semis with standard uPVC half-round to period cottages with original cast iron. All work is carried out by Connor Hill's directly employed team, with no subcontractors and no inflated call-out fees. We're fully insured, Checkatrade verified, and carry all the equipment needed to work safely at height on standard residential properties without requiring scaffold.
Surrey's mature tree canopy, particularly the oaks, beeches, and horse chestnuts found across Epsom, Banstead, and the leafier parts of Guildford and Cheam, means gutters on many properties block faster and more frequently than the national average. A single autumn drop from a large oak can fill a gutter run in a matter of days if the tree overhangs the roof line. We're experienced in dealing with this cycle and can advise on gutter protection mesh and maintenance frequencies suited to your specific situation.
Blocked gutters are the most common cause of external wall damp across Surrey's housing stock. When gutters overflow, water runs down the external wall face rather than draining through the downpipe, saturating the brickwork below the window sills and at the base of the wall. On older properties, this can lead to penetrating damp through the external skin. Hills Roofing Ltd clears gutters by hand, flushes the full channel and downpipe run with water, checks all joints and brackets while at height, and reports any defects found. We can also fit gutter guard mesh on completion where appropriate to reduce the frequency of re-blocking.
Many gutter problems are repairable without full replacement. Common defects we fix across Surrey properties include:
We carry matching uPVC profiles in half-round, ogee, and square section for most common Surrey gutter systems, allowing like-for-like repairs in most cases.
Where a gutter system has reached the end of its serviceable life, with widespread cracking, severe discolouration, or multiple sections with failed joints and brackets, replacement is more economical than continued piecemeal repair. Hills Roofing Ltd supplies and installs uPVC guttering in half-round, square, and ogee profile across Surrey. For period properties, particularly the Victorian and Edwardian cottages and semis found in Epsom, Sutton, and Cheam, we can install cast iron-effect guttering in black or anthracite, which closely replicates the look of original cast iron at a fraction of the weight and without the rust, paint, and maintenance requirements.
Gutters rely on sound fascia boards for support. On many Surrey properties, particularly those built before the 1970s with original timber fascias, the board behind the gutter has rotted due to years of water dripping from a leaking gutter joint, which is why the brackets have failed and the gutter has sagged. Hills Roofing Ltd replaces deteriorated timber fascia and soffit boards with uPVC equivalents: no painting, no rotting, no future maintenance required. We also carry out downpipe repairs and replacements, including re-routing downpipes where original drainage connections are blocked or inaccessible.
Hills Roofing Ltd is an owner-operated roofing company, not a franchise or a large contractor. Connor Hill oversees all guttering work personally, and you'll deal with the same person from initial enquiry to completion. We cover the whole of Surrey, respond to most enquiries within a few hours, and carry out surveys free of charge with no obligation. Contact us by phone or WhatsApp for a free assessment of your guttering. For related roofwork, see our Surrey roof repairs and Surrey chimney repairs pages.
Gutter cleaning in Surrey typically costs £80–£180 for a standard two-storey property, depending on the length of guttering, the number of downpipes, and the extent of blockage. Properties with heavy tree overhang or gutters that haven't been cleaned for several years may take longer and cost more. Hills Roofing Ltd provides free assessments and will confirm the cost before starting work.
Most Surrey properties benefit from gutter cleaning once a year, ideally in late autumn after the main leaf fall. Properties with overhanging trees, particularly large deciduous trees like oaks and beeches, may need cleaning twice a year: once in late spring (to clear seed pods and moss) and once in late autumn. We can advise on the right frequency for your property after assessing the tree cover and gutter condition.

Yes. We can replace old cast iron guttering with cast iron-effect uPVC in black or anthracite, which closely matches the original appearance without the weight, rust risk, or ongoing painting requirement. For properties in conservation areas, we can advise on whether cast iron-effect uPVC is acceptable or whether original cast iron needs to be retained; requirements vary between Surrey's local planning authorities.
This is usually caused by a sagging section creating a low point where water pools and spills over before reaching the downpipe, a blocked or partially collapsed downpipe preventing water from draining away, or a joint that has separated causing water to escape mid-run. Hills Roofing Ltd inspects the full gutter run and downpipe system to find the true cause rather than just clearing visible debris.
