Local roofing specialists serving East Preston and the BN16 postcode. Victorian flint cottages in village, 1930s residential, Kingston Gorse 1960s–70s. Free quotes, no call-out fee.
Victorian flint cottages in village, 1930s residential, Kingston Gorse 1960s–70s seafront estate. The dominant roofing issues in East Preston are: Kingston Gorse direct sea exposure — most severe in coverage area; flat and low-pitch roof failure; village centre lime mortar requirement on flint properties.
Kingston Gorse sits on a narrow coastal strip — properties face direct Channel exposure with no windbreak to the south or west. We apply appropriate coastal-grade materials and specification on every East Preston job as standard — not as a premium upcharge.
Standard RICS surveys inspect from the ground or from a loft hatch. This consistently misses nail sickness on concrete tile (invisible without direct access), lead condition on chimney back gutters, and batten rot from prolonged felt failure. We routinely find significant defects on properties that have received satisfactory comments in professional surveys.
We carry out pre-purchase roof inspections across the BN postcode area. The written report includes cost estimates for all identified defects — designed to give buyers documented evidence for renegotiation where genuine problems are found. The inspection fee is deducted from any subsequent work. Call 01903 905 128.

We access every roof directly — not from a loft hatch or from the ground with binoculars. This is the only way to reliably assess nail fixing status, lead condition and batten integrity.
We inspect all tile or slate surfaces, all lead flashings, ridge and hip mortar, valleys, gutters, fascias, soffits and chimneys. We photograph every defect found.
You receive a written report rating each finding by urgency: immediate action, 1–3 year timeframe, or 3–5 year planned maintenance. Pre-purchase reports include realistic cost estimates for negotiation.
