Local coverage ## Roofing across Brighton, from Kemptown to Preston Park Brighton is dense, hilly and overwhelmingly Victorian, and its roofs reflect that. Terraces in Kemptown, Hanover, Preston Park, Fiveways and the North Laine sit shoulder to shoulder with shared stacks, back-addition valleys and rear extensions that have been re-covered several times over. Add the exposure: the city faces the Channel across a rising slope, so wind funnels up the streets rather than being broken by anything, and you get roofs that lose ridge tiles, verges and slates far more readily than sheltered inland stock. We cover Brighton as part of our West Sussex and Brighton patch. Quotes anywhere in the city are free, and we are contactable 24 hours a day for leaks that cannot wait, with a call-out fee applying to emergency and out-of-hours work after 5pm. ### Property types we work on in Brighton - Victorian terracesHanover, Kemptown, Preston Park and Fiveways: natural slate, shared chimney stacks, back-addition valleys and bay roofs, most now relying on original or once-replaced fixings. - Converted flats and HMOsA large share of the city's terraces are split into flats or let rooms, where a roof defect affects several households and a written fixed price makes splitting the cost straightforward. - Interwar and post-war housingPatcham, Hollingbury, Moulsecoomb and Woodingdean bring conventional tiled roofs, many on perished underlay and due for re-covering. - Rear extensions and dormersLoft conversions and kitchen extensions across the city, adding flat areas, dormer cheeks and new abutments to roofs that were never designed with them.

Local conditions ## What goes wrong on Brighton roofs Terraced, exposed and mostly nineteenth-century, Brighton's housing produces a distinct set of roofing failures, and a lot of leaks that appear a long way from where the water gets in. ### Wind funnelled up the streets The city rises from the seafront, so gales accelerate up the hills rather than dispersing. Ridge tiles, verges and loose slates come off in numbers on exposed elevations. ### Nail sickness in Victorian slate Original fixings corrode long before the slate wears out. Slates slip in ones and twos for years, then in handfuls, the point at which patching stops being sensible. ### Back-addition valleys Terraces with rear additions have valleys collecting water from two slopes into one channel. A defect there produces a lot of water very quickly, and often into a neighbour's property as well as your own. ### Shared stacks over party walls Tall stacks exposed on all sides, frequently unmaintained because responsibility is split. Failed flaunching and pointing put water into both houses at once. ### Loft conversions and condensation Converted lofts seal off the ventilation path a roof relies on. The result looks exactly like a leak, wet timbers, damp insulation, but it's condensation, and it needs a different fix.

How quickly can you reach Brighton?Brighton is part of our regular patch and easy to get to. We're contactable 24 hours a day and treat active leaks as a priority, with a call-out fee for out-of-hours work after 5pm. How much do roof repairs cost in Brighton?It depends on the defect and the access, a slipped slate reachable from a ladder is very different from a valley or shared stack needing scaffold. We quote after looking, as one fixed written figure. Can you find a leak nobody else has?That's a large part of what we do here. Brighton terraces move water a long way before it shows, so we trace it back through the covering, flashings, valleys, stack and loft rather than guessing. My roof is shared with next door, how does that work?Common on terraces and shared stacks. We quote the whole job in writing so costs can be split clearly between owners, and we're happy to explain the work to both parties. Do you work on flats and HMOs?Yes. Converted terraces and let properties are a big part of Brighton, and a fixed written price makes it much easier for landlords, agents and freeholders to agree the work. Is parking or access a problem in narrow streets?It's a normal part of working here. We factor access, parking and any scaffold into the quote up front rather than raising it as an extra cost later. Do you do emergency roof repairs in Brighton?We're contactable 24 hours a day. Getting the building watertight comes first, with the permanent repair once conditions allow. A call-out fee applies after 5pm. My loft conversion is damp but the roof looks fine, why?Usually ventilation. Converting a loft blocks the eaves-to-ridge airflow, so moist air condenses on the cold underside of the roof. It's fixable, but not by replacing tiles. Are you insured and guaranteed?£2 million public liability, membership of the Confederation of Roofers Association, and 25 years on our workmanship. Storm damage, third-party damage and material failure are excluded.
