Haywards Heath grew round the railway, so the housing runs from solid Victorian villas near the station out to large postwar estates, each with a different set of roof problems. From a single flashing to a full lead roof, Paul covers Haywards Heath and the surrounding RH16 area as a matter of course, supply and fit or labour only.

Read moreAcross Haywards Heath (RH16) the work is mostly dormer cladding, re-roofs and flashings on Victorian and interwar housing, alongside the general roofing that goes with it. Haywards Heath grew outwards from an older centre, so the housing runs from Victorian villas 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.
No. Travel is included in the price of the work. Haywards Heath is roughly 13 miles from Brighton, and that is stated up front rather than added at the end. For anything more than a small repair, the job gets planned as a proper visit rather than a day trip.

It does, and it varies street by street. In Haywards Heath we are as likely to be re-leading a bay roof on a Victorian villa as recovering a flat roof on a 1980s extension, and the two have almost nothing in common. Older stock gets lead detailing and breathable build-ups; newer stock gets an efficient job on regular details. You are told which one you have after a look, not before.
Yes. Builders, main contractors and roofing firms around Haywards Heath bring Paul in for the lead element they do not cover themselves, priced by the job or by the day on your material and your programme. Supply and fit is offered on exactly the same work if you would rather have one price for the lot.
Usually within a week or so, and faster where water is coming into the building. Haywards Heath is around 13 miles from Brighton, so a look at the roof is straightforward to arrange. Quotes are free, carry no obligation, and you get the price in writing before anything starts.
