Local roof context

What Lancing roofs are up against

Roof age, materials, exposure and drainage all affect what needs attention at an individual property.

  • Two very different housing stocks. South Lancing's seafront chalets and bungalows take direct salt spray and wind off the Channel; North Lancing's older village properties — some within sight of Lancing College chapel — carry clay tiles and traditional detailing that deserve sympathetic repair.
  • The 1930s–1960s estates that make up much of Lancing and Sompting are now at the age where original concrete tiles become porous and gutters, fascias and felt reach end-of-life together — we often combine a roofline refresh with targeted tile replacement rather than pushing an unnecessary full re-roof.
  • Moss growth is heavier here than on the coast itself — north-facing slopes under the shade of the Downs hold moisture, and moss washing into gutters is one of the most common causes of damp walls we're called to in Lancing.
  • Wind funnelling between the Downs and the sea means storm-slipped tiles after every big blow — worth fixing promptly before water tracks into the felt.
Local questions

Questions about roofs in Lancing

Is moss on my roof actually a problem?

Left alone, yes — it holds moisture against tiles, blocks gutters and can lift tiles as it thickens. We remove it by hand and soft brush, never aggressive jet washing, which strips the tile surface.

Do you cover Sompting and North Lancing?

Yes — all of Lancing, Sompting, Coombes and the surrounding villages.

My gutters overflow every autumn. What's the fix?

Usually a proper clean plus realigning brackets that have sagged. If the gutters are brittle uPVC from the 80s, replacement is often cheaper than repeated call-outs — we'll show you which it is before any work.
