Ridge and verge
Mortar washing out in the sea air.
Eastbourne is the furthest we go. We take on planned roofing work here, booked well ahead: slate repairs, re-roofs, flat roofs and gutters.
We work out of 43 Hudson Road, Hayes, UB3 5EL. Ring first and we will tell you honestly how soon we can get to Eastbourne.

Eastbourne is largely Victorian and Edwardian with natural slate roofs, seafront property taking the full weight of coastal weather, and interwar suburbs behind. Bay windows, parapets and slate dominate the older stock.
Seafront exposure attacks fixings and mortar much faster than anything inland. Ridge and hip mortar that would last thirty years in London can wash out in a fraction of that within sight of the sea.
The furthest point we cover from Hayes. Planned work only, booked well in advance.
Our yard is at 43 Hudson Road, Hayes, UB3 5EL. Ring 07584 213 770 with the postcode and we will tell you straight away whether we are the right people for the job.
Get a quote for EastbourneCoastal wind drives rain sideways, so water finds weak points that would stay dry further inland. Ridge and verge mortar in particular washes out faster than people expect.

For planned work, yes, booked ahead. For a leak that needs looking at tomorrow a local roofer will serve you far better, and we will say so.
