Roofers in Peacehaven and Telscombe Cliffs, where bungalows and chalet homes sit on open clifftop in the full force of the weather. Ring 01273 110909 or send the form for a free quote.
Peacehaven was laid out on a grid across the clifftop, and most of its homes are bungalows and chalet bungalows, built over decades from the 1920s onwards. There is nothing between them and the Channel, so every gale hits them square on.
That exposure decides what fails. Ridge and hip tiles bedded in mortar loosen and blow off, verges crack, and lightweight tiles lift at the edges. Dry fix systems and tiles nailed and clipped to the current wind standard are what keeps a roof on here.
Many homes have been extended with flat roofs at the back and dormers on top. Those join the old roof at awkward angles, and the junctions are where most leaks start.
Peacehaven is about 6 miles east of our Brighton base along the A259 coast road, past Rottingdean and Saltdean. We cover the grid of clifftop roads from Telscombe Cliffs to the Meridian monument and beyond to Peacehaven Heights.
Nothing shelters Peacehaven's bungalows from the Channel, so storm damage is the call we expect most: ridge tiles blown off, verges cracked and lightweight tiles lifted. We make the roof watertight first, then quote the permanent repair.
When a bungalow here needs a new roof, we lay it to stand the wind: clipped tiles, new membrane and battens and dry ridge and dry verge with no mortar left to blow out. Our new roof cost guide gives bungalow budgets.
