FAQs
What does your roofing maintenance plan in Lancing include?
Our standard plan covers two scheduled inspections per year, gutter and downpipe clearing, removal of moss and debris, photographic reports of the roof’s condition, minor repairs such as replacing up to five slipped or broken tiles, resealing exposed fixings, and a written maintenance checklist so you can track the work completed at every visit.
How often will my roof be inspected?
Most homes and commercial properties subscribe to bi-annual inspections—one in spring and one in autumn—so issues caused by winter storms or summer heat are caught early. We can tailor the schedule to quarterly or annual visits for larger or lower-risk roofs, but twice-yearly inspections give the best balance of protection and value.
Why are regular roof inspections important in Lancing’s coastal climate?
Lancing’s sea air carries salt and moisture that accelerate corrosion of fixings, flashings and roof sheets. Frequent on-shore winds can also lift or dislodge tiles. Routine inspections allow us to spot early signs of rust, membrane shrinkage, lifted ridge tiles or blocked gutters before they escalate into leaks and costly structural damage.
How much does a maintenance plan cost?
For a typical three-bedroom house, plans start from £18 per month, which includes both inspections, gutter clearing and minor repairs. Larger properties or commercial roofs are priced after a free site survey, with costs based on roof area, pitch, number of elevations, access requirements and chosen inspection frequency.
What happens if you find a problem during an inspection?
You’ll receive a same-day digital report with photos, our findings and a fixed-price quotation for any remedial work beyond the minor repairs already included. With your approval, we can often carry out the repair on the spot; otherwise, we’ll schedule a convenient follow-up appointment. All additional work is covered by our 12-month workmanship guarantee.
Do you maintain every type of roof?
Yes. Our team is trained and insured to work on pitched and flat roofs, including clay and concrete tiles, natural slate, fibre-cement slate, single-ply membranes (EPDM, PVC, TPO), felt, GRP fibreglass and standing-seam metal. We also service green roofs and solar-panel installations, ensuring flashing and mounting systems remain watertight.
