Local roofing specialists serving Findon and the BN14 postcode. Period flint and stone cottages, Georgian and Victorian village stock, 20th cent. Free quotes, no call-out fee.
Period flint and stone cottages, Georgian and Victorian village stock, 20th century infill. The dominant roofing issues in Findon are: Elevated at 70m+ — higher wind speeds than coastal Worthing; lime mortar essential on flint properties; ridge and hip mortar failure from wind exposure.
South Downs escarpment location at 70m creates significantly higher wind loads than lower Worthing; more pronounced frost and freeze-thaw than coastal properties. We apply appropriate coastal-grade materials and specification on every Findon 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.
