1930s–1960s interwar semi-detached and detached estate housing. Direct south-westerly Channel exposure; full salt air loading. Free quotes, no call-out fee across BN11.
Roofing West Worthing means 1930s to 1960s interwar semi-detached and detached estate housing. Roofs here are typically concrete interlocking tile now 65 to 95 years old, with widespread nail sickness developing. the interwar semis off Tarring Road, the streets toward the seafront and the stock near West Worthing station all show it.
Facing direct south-westerly Channel exposure, West Worthing takes full salt-air loading on its south-facing elevations — which is where the lead chimney flashings and ridge mortar fail first. Day to day, the guttering and fascia problems that dominate here are blocked and overflowing runs, failed joints and brackets and rotten fascia behind the gutter. Every guttering job in West Worthing gets interwar-stock spec — nail-sickness re-fixing and lead chimney flashing renewal on salt-exposed elevations.
Salt particles from the Channel crystallise inside gutter bores, progressively restricting flow. We clear this as standard — found on over half of first-visit inspections in coastal Worthing.
Every visit starts with a hands-on inspection — checking joint condition, bracket fixings, fall and fascia board behind. Not a ground visual.
Guttering and fascia replacement require the same scaffold access. Combined in one visit saves £250–£450 on a second setup.
