Local roofing specialists serving Littlehampton and the BN17 postcode. 1960s–70s Wick estate bungalows and semis, East Beach seafront, Arun waterfront . Free quotes, no call-out fee.
1960s–70s Wick estate bungalows and semis, East Beach seafront, Arun waterfront mixed. The dominant roofing issues in Littlehampton are: Felt flat roof failure on 1960s Wick estate extensions; East Beach direct Channel exposure; Arun estuary humidity on riverside properties.
Positioned at mouth of the River Arun; combined Channel and estuarine exposure; East Beach among most exposed locations on West Sussex coast. We apply appropriate coastal-grade materials and specification on every Littlehampton job as standard — not as a premium upcharge.
Salt particles from the Channel are hygroscopic — they attract and retain moisture, keeping timber permanently damp rather than allowing it to dry between rain events. South and south-west facing fascias deteriorate 18–24 months faster than north-facing equivalent on the same property. In coastal West Sussex, uPVC replacement is the correct long-term specification for fascias on all exposed elevations.
On any coastal West Sussex property, the south and south-west facing fascia is the priority inspection face. If the south elevation looks borderline, the north elevation will appear fine — but acting on both at once, in a single scaffold visit, is significantly cheaper than two separate jobs.

Before any quote, we assess the rafter feet behind the fascia. Salt air and coastal humidity cause rafter foot rot on coastal properties that is invisible until the fascia is removed. Capping over a rotten rafter foot creates a false economy.
Where timber is structurally sound but surface-deteriorated, uPVC cap-over is faster and cheaper. Where timber has rotted through, full strip-back to rafter foot and new uPVC installation is required.
We fit vented soffit panels on all replacement jobs and check existing cross-ventilation is adequate. In Worthing's elevated coastal humidity, inadequate roof void ventilation causes condensation damage that is invisible until re-roofing.
