Roofing and driveways in Horsham

Across Horsham (RH12) it is mostly clay tile and Horsham stone re-roofs on older property, chimney and lead work, and gravel and block paved drives, plus the flat roofs, fascias, guttering and patios that go alongside all of it. Horsham has a historic centre with a conservation area running through it, so re-roofs on older property are generally expected to match the existing covering and chimney stacks are usually better repaired than removed. The newer estates on the edge of town carry none of those constraints, which is why the same street can need two different answers. 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. Horsham is roughly 18 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. Horsham has a tight historic centre with modern housing wrapped around it, and the older roofs there are heavy, which changes both the timber checks and the price. Give us a ring and we will tell you what we normally find on roofs and drives around Causeway, and what yours is likely to need before anything comes off.

It does, and Horsham is really two jobs in one town. In the historic centre the property is older brick and stone, the roofs are slate or clay tile, and the stacks and lead work are usually where the money needs to go. Coverings there are generally expected to match what is already up, so that is what we price. On the newer estates around the edge the roofs are interlocking concrete tile, the fascias are UPVC and the front is a drive rather than a garden, so it is re-roofs, gutter renewals and block or resin paving. We will tell you which of the two your house is at the estimate.

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 Horsham needing both, doing them together is normally cheaper and always quicker than booking them apart.

Horsham is around 18 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.
