Roofers in Saltdean for the 1930s bungalows and chalet bungalows climbing the valley from the Lido to the downs. Ring 01273 110448 or send the form for a free written quote from Michael.
Saltdean was laid out in the 1930s, when the Lido and the old Ocean Hotel were built, and most of its homes still date from then or just after: bungalows and chalet bungalows stepping up the valley on either side of Longridge Avenue, with detached houses along the cliff top.
Those roofs are now 80 to 90 years old. Many still have their original clay or concrete tiles on bitumen felt that has turned to dust, and the hipped bungalow roofs that suit the slopes take the wind off the sea head on. Slipped tiles, cracked ridge mortar and lead that has lifted at the chimney are the faults we expect.
Lots of Saltdean bungalows have had their lofts converted with a box dormer. Those dormers have flat roofs, and a flat roof that was laid in one layer of felt twenty years ago is now leaking into a bedroom.
Saltdean is about 3 miles east of our base along the coast road. We work across the valley from the Lido up to the downs, and along the cliff top to Rottingdean and Ovingdean, with Michael on every survey.
Ninety-year-old felt, slipped tiles on hipped bungalows and cracked ridge mortar are the roof repairs we expect in Saltdean. Where the mortar keeps failing, dry verge and dry ridge ends it for good. Our roof repair cost guide has the prices.
A bungalow re-roof here means a full strip, new membrane and battens, new tiles and dry fix hips and ridges. Box dormers get a new deck and a new flat roof. Not sure whether to repair or replace? Our guide explains how we decide.
