What roofing work do you do in East Grinstead?
Across East Grinstead (RH19) the work is mostly on timber-framed and tile-hung property in the old centre with large post-war estates around it, which means repairs, re-roofs, flat roofs, leadwork, chimneys and guttering in roughly that order. East Grinstead grew outwards from a much older centre, so the housing runs from timber-framed and tile-hung property through interwar semis to modern estates, and the right approach genuinely changes from one street to the next. Every job starts with a proper look at the roof rather than a price guessed off a photograph.
Do you charge extra to come out to East Grinstead?
No. Travel is included in the price of the work. East Grinstead is roughly 6 miles from Edenbridge, and that is stated up front rather than added at the end.
Have you worked in East Grinstead before?
Yes. East Grinstead is ten minutes down the road and the housing changes street by street, so nothing there gets priced off an assumption. We are happy to talk through the kind of work we have done near medieval High Street when you get in touch.
Does the property in East Grinstead change how the roof is done?
It does, and it varies street by street. In East Grinstead we are as likely to be re-tiling a steep clay pitch on a period house as recovering a flat roof on a 1980s extension, and the two have almost nothing in common. Older stock gets traditional coverings and breathable build-ups, newer stock gets an efficient job on regular details, and you are told which one you have after a look rather than before.
How quickly can you look at a leaking roof in East Grinstead?
Usually within a few days, and faster where water is actively coming into the building. East Grinstead is around 6 miles from Edenbridge, so getting out to look at it is straightforward. Quotes are free, carry no obligation, and you get the price in writing before anything starts.
Do you do free roof checks in East Grinstead?
Yes. If you have not had the roof looked at in years, or you have just bought the place, we will go over the ridge, valleys, flashings and gutters and tell you honestly what needs doing. You get photos of anything we find, and there is no obligation to have the work done.
