Types of roof repairs in Angmering.
Angmering Roof Lining
Felt lining on a roof becomes worn over time, especially the older non breathable membrane (bitumen based.)
At Bespoke Roofing LTD we are able to offer the roofing service for a new breathable membrane to be installed on your property.
You may not be aware but ventilation cannot be installed without having a breathable membrane lining, as this causes condensation in your roof space which can appear as a leak!
I would recommend this service to any client who's roof tiles are in good condition but the felt underneath has become dilapidated and also those who wish to install ventilation within their roof space.
Angmering Chimney repairs.
Chimney Pointing - Age plays a significant factor in the state of the mortar on your chimney. Once your mortar is a certain age it will begin to crack and allow water into your internal property.
Chimney Rendering - Once again age is a significant factor in the state of the render on your chimney. If the render begins to crack this will allow water to travel and sit between your brickwork, eventually leading to water penetration.
Chimney Flaunching - The chimney flaunching sometimes known as a coping is the top section of mortar that allows your pots to be bedded correctly, but also is laid to a fall allowing water to travel off the top of your stack.
Chimney Pots & Cowls - Chimney pots and cowls can become cracked with age, and driving rain can also cause ingress of water should a chimney cowl not be installed.
Lead Flashings - Lead on average has a life span of 20-30 years dependent on its grade. Over time lead expands and retracts with heat and can begin to crack and malign.
Angmering Moss Removal.
Moss, algae and lichen build up can be a big problem for homeowners, not only can it hold water on your roof but also once it falls can block guttering and downpipes preventing free flowing water.
There are a few methods in which we are able to offer in order to remove this from your roof.
The first method is a standard dry scrape - manually removing all moss, algae and lichens from your roof.
The second method is to jet wash and seal.
A manual dry scrape is performed first removing all moss, algae and lichens from your roof.
Once all moss is removed a high powered jet wash is performed with an anti fungal wash to all pitched roofing elevations required.
Once dry we use a high quality roofing sealant to aid in prevention of re-growth and ensure that the roof is 100% clean.
Ferring valley repairs/replacements.
There are a few different ways a valley can be installed.
The most common types of valley are tiled valleys, lead valleys and fibreglass valley.
At Bespoke Roofing we are able to offer all of these option but can depend upon the gradient that your valley is positioned.
In most cases we would also change the roof lining a metre either side of the valley so we can be confident that it is completely weathered.
Ferring ridge, hip and bonnet repairs.
Ridge, hip, and bonnet tiles are fundamental materials that form the external structure of your roof.
Ridge and hip lines can be formed using either a mortar mix or a dry ridge system, with bonnet tiles being formed using a mortar mix.
The most common method of laying ridge, hips and bonnets is using a mortar mix, which in time can deteriorate through weathering.
This is one of our most common repairs as the mortar begins to age well before the tile itself in most cases.
The ridge, hip and bonnet tiles can also deteriorate through age and we also offer the service to replace the tile itself depending on its condition.
Another common roofing issue is through storm damage where tiles can be stripped from the roof in high winds, and therefore require replacing - mainly through insurance.
Angmering Landmarks
The history of roofing in Angmering, like many places in Sussex, reflects the region's rich architectural heritage. Traditionally, thatch was the primary roofing material used, especially in the quaint cottages that characterize the area. Thatching, made from locally sourced materials like reeds and straw, was not only sustainable but also effective in keeping homes warm and dry.
As Angmering evolved, so did its roofing styles. In the 19th century, brick and slate became more common, aligning with the growing trend toward sturdier and more durable constructions. The introduction of clay tiles added another layer of diversity to the roofing landscape. These materials were readily available in Sussex and allowed for intricate designs that enhanced the visual appeal of homes.
With the advent of modern building techniques and materials in the 20th century, flat roofs and GRP (Glass Reinforced Plastic) emerged, offering innovative solutions for residential and commercial buildings. Today, building regulations have fostered improvements in roofing technology, ensuring energy efficiency and sustainability.
At Bespoke Roofing, we acknowledge this rich history and offer a comprehensive range of roofing services, from complete ridge, bonnet, and hip line repairs to single tile replacements. Our expertise in GRP roofing solutions allows us to maintain the heritage while incorporating modern practices. Whether you're looking for a minor repair or a complete roof installation, our experienced team is here to help the Angmering community preserve its architectural charm.
