01323 365960Hastings presents the most varied roofing landscape in our coverage area. The Old Town, sitting between the two hills at the eastern end of the seafront, contains some of the oldest domestic properties in East Sussex — medieval timber-framed buildings, Georgian fishermen’s net shops, and Victorian terracing squeezed into the Bourne valley. Moving west through the town centre and into St Leonards, the character shifts through Regency seafront terracing, substantial Victorian and Edwardian residential development, and 1960s–70s council and private estates on the higher ground around Ore, Hollington, and Silverhill.
Hastings’ seafront position and its east-facing aspect give it weather characteristics distinct from Eastbourne — the town catches more north-easterly weather off the North Sea in winter, in addition to the south-westerly Atlantic systems. Wind-driven salt exposure is severe on seafront and near-seafront properties. The Old Town’s position in a sheltered valley provides some protection, but the hill-top properties of West Hill and East Hill are directly exposed.
Lead flashing failure on Victorian and Edwardian chimney stacks — accelerated by coastal salt on both elevations. Concrete tile nail sickness across the 1960s–70s estate housing in Ore, Silverhill, and Hollington. Historic Old Town properties requiring specialist materials and conservation consent. Flat roof failures on the widespread 1960s housing with rear extensions.

Learn more →“Victorian mid-terrace in St Leonards — chimney stack had been pointed in cement by a previous owner and the bricks were spalling badly. Raked out and re-done in lime mortar. Correct fix. Brickwork can breathe again.”
“Re-roofed our 1960s semi in Ore. Concrete tiles were going one by one — nail sickness throughout. Full re-roof in new concrete tiles on new battens and felt. No more tile loss.”
“Old Town property with a complex roof junction that had been leaking for years. They surveyed it properly, identified three separate failure points, and fixed all three. No patch jobs — each one done correctly.”
Covering TN34, TN35, TN37 and surrounding postcodes.
Hastings has a steep medieval Old Town of period cottages plus Victorian terraces, where steep pitches and tight, sloping streets make access demanding. Coastal and hilly, Hastings combines salt exposure with steep, wind-caught roofs.
We work across Hastings and the surrounding TN34, TN35, TN37 postcodes, on streets from All Saints Street, High Street, Queens Road to the newer estates. Knowing the local stock is what separates a lasting repair from a callback: the right materials for the exposure here, the correct access for the streets, and honest advice on whether a roof needs a repair or a replacement. That local knowledge is why so much of our Hastings work comes from neighbours and repeat customers rather than cold touting.
Every service below is available across Hastings, each with its own local detail on pricing, process and the common Hastings problems we see. Tap through for the specifics, or call for a free survey.
We are a local, family-run Eastbourne roofing team covering Hastings with a 10-year workmanship guarantee, free written quotes and no call-out fee. You get a roofer who turns up when they say they will, quotes in writing with the materials named, clears up properly and stands behind the work. For an active leak in Hastings we attend 24/7 to make safe; for everything else we book a free survey at a time that suits you, or a callback within 2 hours.
Marine-grade lead and stainless fixings come as standard on Hastings roofs, not as an upsell — coastal and hilly, Hastings combines salt exposure with steep, wind-caught roofs.
Every Hastings roof is priced on its own merits after a free survey, but as a rough guide: minor roof repairs run about £150–£900 depending on scope and access; a full re-roof is typically £4,000–£15,000 depending on size and whether it is concrete tile, clay or natural slate; flat roofing (GRP, EPDM or felt) ranges from £800 for a small re-cover to £6,000+ for a large extension; guttering work spans £80 for a clear to £2,000 for a full replacement; and chimney repairs usually fall between £150 and £800+. Access is the big variable in Hastings — tight terraced streets, tall or seafront frontages and conservation material matching all affect the figure, which is why we quote in writing after seeing the roof rather than over the phone. No call-out fee, and the survey is free.
We also cover the surrounding towns and villages:
Across Hastings, steep Old Town pitches bring slipped-slate and access-heavy repairs, while the coastal exposure fatigues lead flashings and the tightly-packed terraces see shared-gutter and party-wall leadwork issues. Whatever the issue, we survey it properly, tell you honestly whether it needs a repair or a replacement, and put a clear written price to it. For an active leak we can attend the same day to make safe before it does more damage inside.
Yes. We cover Hastings, St Leonards-on-Sea, Ore, Silverhill, Hollington, Battle, Westfield, and the wider Rother district. Call 01323 365960 for a free quote.
Yes. The Old Town is conservation area designated and contains listed buildings going back to the medieval period. We understand the consent framework and source appropriate materials — lime mortar, clay tile, and natural materials as required by the heritage environment.
Nail sickness on concrete interlocking tiles is the primary issue across Ore, Silverhill, and Hollington. The same pattern we see in Langney and Eastbourne's post-war estates — systematic fixing failure requiring either re-fixing or full re-roofing. Flat roof failures on rear extensions are also very common.
In terms of direction, yes — Hastings catches north-easterly weather that Eastbourne is more sheltered from. The Old Town and seafront properties are severely exposed. Hill-top properties in West Hill and Ore face significant wind uplift. We respond to storm damage calls from Hastings regularly.
