Why Ratton Properties Need Specialist Repair Knowledge

The 1960s–80s Ratton Estate housing stock in Ratton has a specific repair profile that differs from a generic Eastbourne property. The dominant roofing material is concrete interlocking tile, and the most frequent calls we receive from Ratton homeowners involve de-nailing and flat roof extension failures. A roofer who does not understand this area's specific failure patterns will misdiagnose and under-specify repairs — leading to the same problem returning within 2–5 years.

We have been working on Ratton properties since 2003. We carry the correct replacement tile profiles for this area on the van. We know which chimney stacks need lime mortar and which can take modern flexible mortar. We know which properties need code 4 versus code 5 lead. This knowledge is the difference between a repair that lasts 20 years and one that fails by next winter.

How We Quote Roof Repairs in Ratton

Every repair starts with a free on-site survey. We inspect the area of concern and the wider roof condition — a visit that identifies only the reported problem and nothing adjacent is an incomplete survey. Our written quote itemises every element of the work, the materials specified, and the timescale. You will know exactly what you are paying for before we start. There are no additional charges on completion unless we have identified and discussed additional work with you during the job.
