New roof details for Hurst Green homes
A few repairs do not mean a whole roof needs replacing. If leaks return across several slopes or the coverings, fixings or underlay have deteriorated widely, re-roofing may make more sense than another patch. We assess the existing structure before discussing a replacement covering.
Tiles and slates change both the look and the weight of a roof. The right choice depends on the pitch, the supporting structure and the character of the property, particularly on older Sussex streets or where conservation controls apply. Ventilation also needs to work with the insulation in the roof space.

Questions about new roofs & re-roofing in Hurst Green
What should a re-roofing quote for a Hurst Green property include?
The existing covering, underlay, battens, roof edges and drainage all affect the scope. SENTRY assesses those details before recommending materials and the work needed.
Can a new covering go over damaged roof components?
A new finish relies on sound support beneath it. If the underlay, battens or other roof components are deteriorated, their condition needs to be addressed in the proposed work.
When should a roof be replaced rather than repaired?
Widespread failure, repeated leaks or the condition of underlying components may make replacement more sensible. The decision should follow an inspection and a comparison of realistic options.
Can the roof's appearance be retained?
The roof shape and material choice can often respect the building's character, subject to suitability, availability and any applicable planning or conservation requirements.
What is normally included in a full re-roof?
A full scope commonly covers removal of the old covering, assessment of exposed support, suitable underlay and battens, new tiles or slates, and the relevant edge and junction details. Ask for each element to be stated in the specification.
