Roof repairs in Hove for slate terraces, 1930s semis and everything between, with the leak traced to where it gets in. Ring 01273 110909 or send the form for a free quote from William.
Many of Hove's Victorian terraces drain their roofs into a valley gutter hidden behind the front parapet. You cannot see it from the street, leaves and silt collect in it, and when the lining splits, water runs straight into the top-floor ceiling. It is one of the most common leaks we trace on these streets.
Slipped slates are the other. Rusted nails let them slide one at a time, and each one leaves a gap for the rain. We refix them with tingles and replace cracked slates with matched natural slate.
On the 1930s semis of Hove Park and West Blatchington, the repairs are different: cracked ridge mortar, slipped plain tiles and felt that has perished above the eaves. We fix what is failing and tell you straight if the roof is nearing the point where a re-roof costs less than repeated repairs.

On a parapet terrace, a split valley gutter or a blocked outlet behind the parapet is the likely cause. It is invisible from the street.

Yes. Six broken tiles and a gutter clean is a normal morning for us, and the review from Ausama in September 2026 says exactly that.
