Roofing in Hove: what we actually see
Hove is a masterclass in 19th-century roofing: mansard roofs behind grand parapets on Brunswick and Palmeira Squares, long slate slopes over the avenues' villas, ornate dormers, and acres of concealed lead gutters that most owners have never seen. Concealed is the operative word — when a parapet gutter fails on a Hove townhouse, the first sign is often a stain three floors down. Further from the seafront, Edwardian and interwar streets around Hove Park bring more conventional clay and slate roofs, plus a healthy number of loft conversions whose dormers and flat tops are now due re-covering.
Local knowledge that saves you money
- Mansard and dormer specialists — slating, leadwork and zinc details on Hove's tall Victorian and Regency stock.
- Concealed gutter surveys: we drone-inspect and clear parapet gutters before winter, which prevents most Hove 'mystery leaks'.
- Flat-roofed loft conversions across Hove get long-life GRP and EPDM re-covers with insulation brought up to spec.
