Types of Roof repairs in Rustington,

Rustington 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.

Rustington Chimney repairs.

Chimney stacks are one of the main causes for leaks into an internal property.

The following issues are the most common to identify.

  1. 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.

  2. 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.

  3. 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.

  4. 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.

  5. 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.





Rustington 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.

Rustington 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.

Rustington 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.

We at Bespoke Roofing offer all types of repairs, from full ridge, bonnet and hip lines to single tile replacements.

History of roofing in Rustington

Roofing in Rustington, a coastal village in West Sussex, has developed significantly over the centuries, reflecting broader architectural trends and local needs. Historically, roofing materials and techniques have evolved from simple thatch and timber structures to more modern solutions.

In the early days, roofs in Rustington were primarily constructed using thatch made from local reeds and straw. This technique was practical, as it provided excellent insulation and was readily available. Such roofs were common in many rural areas of England, including Rustington, until they began to wane in popularity due to fire risks and the labor-intensive production process.

As the village progressed, particularly during the 19th century, slate began to emerge as a favored roofing material. The availability of slate from nearby quarries made this durable option popular among builders and homeowners. Slate roofs provided longevity and required less maintenance than thatched roofs, leading to their widespread adoption. This period also saw the introduction of more elaborate architectural styles, such as Victorian and Edwardian, characterized by steeply pitched roofs and decorative features.

The 20th century saw further advancements in roofing materials, including the advent of asphalt shingles and later, metal roofing options. These materials offered homeowners a combination of durability and aesthetic appeal that was hard to match. The post-war housing boom in the mid-20th century brought about a surge in new home construction in Rustington, leading to the proliferation of these modern roofing styles.

In recent years, the focus in Rustington has shifted to sustainability and energy efficiency. Homeowners are increasingly seeking roofs that not only protect their property but also contribute to environmental conservation. Green roofing options, solar panel installations, and high-performance materials have become popular as part of this trend.

As a family-run roofing firm in the area, Bespoke Roofing understands the history and evolution of roofing styles and techniques in Rustington. With 20 years of experience, they are equipped to handle a range of roofing needs, from traditional restoration to modern installations, supporting the ongoing development and preservation of the village's architectural heritage.
