Local coverage
Roofing across Littlehampton, Wick and East Preston
Littlehampton sits at the western end of our regular patch, and it's a town of bungalows, interwar semis and seafront property with almost nothing between it and the Channel. From the harbour and the seafront through Wick, Toddington and out towards Rustington and East Preston, the housing is lower, flatter and more exposed than the inland towns we work in.
That shapes the work. Low-pitch roofs, chalet bungalows with dormers, and single-storey extensions with flat felt roofs make up a large share of what we're called to, and the failures tend to be at junctions and edges rather than in the middle of a slope.
Every quote in Littlehampton is free, and we're contactable 24 hours a day for leaks that can't wait, with a call-out fee applying to emergency and out-of-hours work after 5pm.
Property types we work on in Littlehampton
Bungalows and chalet bungalows
A defining Littlehampton property type. Wide, low roofs with dormers, valleys and low-pitch sections, all detail-heavy, and all more vulnerable to wind-driven rain than a steep roof.
Interwar and post-war semis
Clay and concrete tile roofs across Wick and Toddington, many now with perished underlay beneath a covering that still looks sound.
Seafront and near-seafront property
Fully exposed elevations where salt and wind shorten the life of fixings, verges and rainwater goods.
Flat-roofed extensions and garages
Rear extensions, sun rooms and garages on old felt that has lost its surfacing and started to hold water.

Why Littlehampton customers use us
We spec for the exposure rather than to a generic standard: fixings chosen for wind load, generous laps and upstands, and verge and drip detail given proper attention on the windward side of the building.

Local conditions
What goes wrong on Littlehampton roofs
Flat, coastal and largely low-rise, Littlehampton's housing gives wind and salt an easy target, particularly at edges, dormers and flat sections.
Wind-driven rain on low pitches
Shallow-pitch bungalow roofs let horizontal rain travel up under the covering. Laps and underlay detail that would be fine inland are not enough on an exposed coastal plot.
Salt corrosion
Fixings, clips and gutter brackets corrode faster in salt air, so slipped tiles and sagging gutter runs turn up years earlier than they would further north.
Dormer junctions
Chalet bungalows have cheeks, tops and valleys around every dormer. Each one is a junction, and junctions are where roofs leak.
Ponding on flat extensions
Extensions laid without proper falls hold water for days. Standing water finds every split and every frost widens it.
Rotten fascias behind gutters
Overflowing gutters soak the timber they're screwed to. Eventually the brackets pull straight out, and replacing the gutter alone fixes nothing.

Straight answers
Littlehampton roofing questions
Do you cover Littlehampton and the surrounding villages?
Yes: Littlehampton, Wick, Toddington, and out towards Rustington, East Preston and Angmering as part of our West Sussex coverage.
How quickly can you get to Littlehampton?
It's on our regular western run, so getting there is straightforward. We're contactable 24 hours a day and prioritise active leaks, with a call-out fee for out-of-hours work after 5pm.
How much does a new roof cost in Littlehampton?
It depends on the size, pitch, covering and access; we price after inspecting the roof and give you one fixed written figure. We don't work on day rates.
Do you do emergency call-outs in Littlehampton?
Yes, we're contactable 24 hours a day. We make the roof watertight first and carry out the permanent repair once conditions allow. A call-out fee applies after 5pm.
My bungalow roof keeps leaking around the dormer, why?
Dormers concentrate junctions: cheeks, tops, valleys and abutments. Water usually enters at a flashing or valley and travels before it shows, so the visible damp is rarely above the actual fault.
Can you replace a flat garage or extension roof?
Yes: three-layer torch-on felt is our standard flat roofing system, laid with falls corrected at deck level so water reaches the outlet.
Is the quote free?
Yes, anywhere in Littlehampton. Only a formal written roof survey report is a separate paid service.
Do you replace guttering and fascias too?
Yes, and we check the timber behind the gutter before fitting anything new, hanging a new run on rotten fascia just moves the problem a couple of years down the road.
Will you help with an insurance claim after storm damage?
We can document what we find and provide a written quote for the repair. The claim itself stays between you and your insurer, and storm damage isn't covered by our workmanship guarantee.
Are you insured and accredited?
£2 million public liability insurance, and a 25-year workmanship guarantee.
