Roofing and driveways in Eastbourne

Across Eastbourne (BN21) it is mostly re-roofs and repairs on Victorian and interwar housing, flat roofs to extensions, fascia and gutter renewals, and block paved and resin drives, plus the flat roofs, fascias, guttering and patios that go alongside all of it. Eastbourne is mostly twentieth century and modern estate housing with a smaller older core, so on the majority of properties the roof covering and the driveway surface are a free choice. Permeable surfacing, or drainage to a soakaway rather than to the road, is the one condition that routinely applies. Every job starts with somebody coming out and looking at it, then a free written estimate, rather than a price guessed over the phone.

No. Eastbourne is roughly 19 miles from Brighton, on the run we do between the coast and London most weeks, so travel is in the written estimate rather than added on afterwards. Jobs that far out tend to get booked as a solid run of days rather than fitted in around other work.

Yes. Eastbourne is east along the coast and the work there splits between roof renewals on the older seafront housing and drives on the suburban streets inland. Give us a ring and we will tell you what we normally find on roofs and drives around pier, and what yours is likely to need before anything comes off.

It does, but in a helpful way. Eastbourne is largely twentieth century and modern estate housing built to a limited number of designs, so the roof pitch, the covering and the drive layout are broadly known before we arrive. That makes the programme and the price reliable. Concrete interlocking tile is the usual covering, so a re-roof is quick, and UPVC fascias and gutters are normally the same age as the roof and worth doing at the same time while the access is already paid for. Front drives are usually big enough for block or resin, and permeable surfacing keeps you clear of the only planning condition that routinely bites.

Yes, and it is the reason a lot of people ring us rather than two separate outfits. Roofing and driveways are both done by the same team, so the scaffold, the skips and the muck away are organised once instead of twice, and there is one number to ring if anything needs sorting. On a house in Eastbourne needing both, doing them together is normally cheaper and always quicker than booking them apart.

Eastbourne is around 19 miles from Brighton, so getting out to measure and quote is quick. When we can actually start depends on the diary and, for roofing, on the weather, which is normally a few weeks out. We would rather give you a real date than a hopeful one, so ring and we will tell you where the next honest slot is.
