Roofing and driveways in Newhaven

Across Newhaven (BN9) it is mostly re-roofs and storm damage repairs on twentieth century housing, fascia and gutter renewals, and block paved and resin drives, plus the flat roofs, fascias, guttering and patios that go alongside all of it. Newhaven 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. Newhaven is about 9 miles from Brighton, well inside the daily patch, so travel is in the price and a visit to measure and quote is usually a couple of days away.

Yes. Newhaven is exposed and jobs there often start as a storm damage call, so we see a lot of lifted tiles, failed ridge work and guttering that has given up. Give us a ring and we will tell you what we normally find on roofs and drives around harbour, and what yours is likely to need before anything comes off.

It does, but in a helpful way. Newhaven 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 Newhaven needing both, doing them together is normally cheaper and always quicker than booking them apart.

Newhaven is around 9 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.
