Local roofing specialists serving Rustington and the BN16 postcode. Victorian and Edwardian village centre, large 1960s–70s East Rustington estates. Free quotes, no call-out fee.
Victorian and Edwardian village centre, large 1960s–70s East Rustington estates, seafront bungalows on Sea Road. The dominant roofing issues in Rustington are: Nail sickness developing on 1960s–70s East Rustington estate stock; Edwardian village centre lead and lime mortar requirements; Arun valley wind channelling on eastern properties.
BN16 east of Littlehampton; Arun valley creates easterly wind channelling adding to south-westerly exposure; above-average humidity from estuarine proximity. We apply appropriate coastal-grade materials and specification on every Rustington 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.

We climb the roof (or fly a drone on steep/high access) to find the true source — leaks rarely start where the stain appears inside.
You get an itemised price with no call-out fee. We tell you if it's a genuine repair or whether a section is beyond economic repair.
On urgent leaks we make the roof watertight the same visit where we can, then return with materials for the permanent fix.
Matching tiles, Code 4/5 lead to valleys and flashings, flexible modified mortar to ridges — never sand and cement, which cracks and re-fails.
All debris removed, the work photographed, and the repair backed by our workmanship guarantee.
