Form library · Housing and property
A before and after record of gutter clearance. Record how the gutters were reached, then each run or elevation with its length and how blocked it was, before and after photos, whether the downpipes were flushed and any damage. The form totals the length cleared and counts fully blocked runs, records defects such as leaking joints or broken brackets, and gets the customer's signature. Every question is listed below, and you can fill the live form in on this page.

A gutter cleaning report should show each run cleared, how blocked it was, before and after photos, whether the downpipes were flushed and are running, and any defects found, such as leaking joints, sagging brackets, cracked sections or fascia damage, with recommendations. The photos are the proof of work, since the customer often cannot see into the gutters.
Last updated . Facts checked by the SiteSurvey team on 17 October 2026 against regulation 6 of the Work at Height Regulations 2005 (avoidance of risks from work at height), HSE: introduction to working at height safely and HSE: safe use of ladders and stepladders.

Walk Cam route · four guided clips
Show the whole rainwater route before focusing on a joint, outlet and downpipe. Give a repairer the location and visible evidence without claiming a flow test.
Identify the building and elevation. Record the visible run, then an accessible joint, outlet and downpipe route. Use safe ground-level views or authorised access only.
Show the building elevation and the visible gutter line from safe ground-level access. Identify the run and outlet location.
The rear elevation and continuous visible gutter run are shown.
Frame a joint and adjacent gutter section in context, recording any visible sagging, separation or staining.
The gutter joint and adjacent roof edge are visible; support and seal condition cannot be confirmed from the clip.
Show the outlet from a safe position and record only debris or standing water that can actually be seen.
Leaf material appears near the visible outlet opening.
Follow the visible downpipe route and joints, recording any adjacent wall staining without inferring the cause.
The external downpipe route and joints are recorded against the brick elevation.

This is a visual condition record. It does not prove internal blockage, leak rate, falls, fixing strength or the source of damp. Do not climb, lean out or work at height merely to collect footage. Example footage was generated in Google Flow and the observations are scripted; no real site is shown. Walk Cam works inside any form in the app. How Walk Cam works · All visual inspections
A gutter clearance report with before and after photos: access method, each elevation's length and blockage, downpipes flushed, defects found, recommendations and the customer's signature. 3 sections and 35 questions. Follow-up questions and guidance appear only when an answer calls for them, so the person on site never sees the ones that do not apply.
This is a starting point, not a fixed form. Once it is in your SiteSurvey account you can reword any question, add or remove questions, sections and answer options, and add your own logo, so it fits the way your team works and the jobs you do.
Add this form to a project in SiteSurvey and it fills in what the project already knows, so nobody on site retypes it and every form on the job uses the same names. Anything filled in can still be changed.
Mark it at the front of the property, as a record of the visit. Tap Mark current location on site. It saves the coordinates, a grid reference and the accuracy.
Record estimated current conditions and add what you observe on site.
Measure from a square-on photo of the elevation with the front door as the reference, to plan access and price the next visit. Measuring from a photo gives an estimate.
Set from the build-up found and nearby trees.
Optional. Film the four guided points on the SiteSurvey app; each clip keeps its spoken note.

Customers rarely see inside their gutters. Before and after photos of each run show the work was done and justify the price.
The Work at Height Regulations 2005 say work must not be done at height where it can reasonably be done safely another way. HSE advises doing as much as possible from the ground, using ladders only for light work of short duration (a maximum of 30 minutes at a time), and not resting a ladder against weak surfaces such as plastic gutters. The form records the access used.
Yes. Enter each run's length and the form shows the total cleared, which helps with pricing and repeat visits.
Yes. Record the defects found and add a recommendation and price, so the customer can approve the repair from the report.
Yes. The customer signs on your phone and the report goes as a PDF or a link.
