📞 Call Now: 01903 905 128Tarring is Worthing's oldest and most historic settlement — a pre-Norman village that sat independently from Worthing until the two merged in the 19th century. The village centre around St Andrew's Church, the Archbishop's Palace ruins and the Fig Garden contains some of West Sussex's most architecturally significant vernacular buildings: flint and sandstone cottages, timber-framed houses, and pre-Reformation structures requiring the most sensitive approach to roofing work. High Street Tarring and the surrounding lanes form a designated conservation area where any change to roof materials or appearance requires careful consideration.
We work regularly in Tarring and have a thorough understanding of both the planning requirements and the practical demands of the historic building stock. All repointing work on pre-1900 and listed buildings in Tarring uses hydraulic lime mortar matched to the original specification — we carry materials on the van for Tarring jobs and don't need a lead time to source them. We can provide written confirmation of mortar specification for conservation officer records, and have successfully passed conservation inspections on multiple Tarring properties.
The most common repair calls from Tarring are: chimney repointing using lime mortar on the historic flint and sandstone property stock, clay plain tile replacement on pre-1900 roofs (sourcing period-appropriate handmade or machine-pressed clay to match the existing tile profile), and lead flashing replacement on the numerous historic chimneys throughout the village. Any work involving a change of roof material on conservation area properties requires prior discussion with Worthing Borough Council's conservation team, which we can facilitate.
"Listed cottage on the High Street, full chimney repoint and lead flashing replacement. They arrived with lime mortar, knew the conservation requirements without being told, and the work was approved by the conservation officer without any queries."
"Pre-1900 flint and stone property, clay tile replacement on the south slope. They sourced handmade clay tiles that matched the original in size and colour. Couldn't tell the repairs from the original."
"Annual inspection and minor repairs on our historic Tarring property. The written report is detailed enough for our listed building insurance. Very thorough and knowledgeable about what the building needs."
