Roof repairs in Hove, from hidden parapet gutters to slipped slates

Roof repairs in Hove and Portslade, with the leak traced to where it gets in, whether that is a hidden gutter behind a parapet or a slipped slate on a villa. Ring 01273 110448 for a free written quote.

Many of Hove's Regency and Victorian terraces drain their roofs into a valley gutter hidden behind the front parapet. You cannot see it from the street, leaves and silt collect in it, and when the lining splits the water goes straight into the top-floor ceiling. It is one of the most common leaks we trace in Brunswick, Goldsmid and the streets off Church Road.

On the villas off The Drive and in Hove Park, it is slipped slates, worn lead and cracked flaunching on tall shared stacks. We refix the slates, renew the lead and rebuild the flaunching so the stack stops letting water down inside.

In Hangleton, West Blatchington and Portslade, the semis need tile and ridge repairs and new flat roofs on rear extensions. We are a few minutes away in Brighton, so leaks in Hove go to the front of the queue.

Roof repairs in Hove: questions

Why is my top-floor ceiling wet when the roof looks fine?

On a parapet terrace, a split gutter lining or a blocked outlet behind the parapet is the likely cause. You cannot see it from the street, but we can.

Can you match the slates on my Hove house?

Yes, with new or reclaimed natural slate of the same size and colour.

How fast can you get to Hove?

We are a few miles away in Brighton. Ring 01273 110448 and leaks go to the front of the queue.

How much does a roof repair cost in Brighton?

A few slipped or broken tiles start from about £150 to £350 with ladder access. Ridge re-bedding, valley repairs and lead work run higher, and anything needing scaffold carries that cost. You get a fixed written price before we start. Our roof repair cost guide has the full ranges.

Can you fix it the same day?

Often, yes. Small repairs are done on the visit when we have the tiles on the van. Leaks with water coming in go to the front of the queue.
