Learn more →Hide Hollow is a residential area in east Eastbourne centred on the Hide Hollow road and surrounding streets, developed primarily between the 1960s and 1980s. The housing stock is predominantly post-war and 1960s–80s semi-detached and detached development with concrete interlocking tile. The area borders Langney to the south and Priory Heights to the north, sharing the east Eastbourne BN23 housing character.
Hide Hollow is on relatively flat ground in east Eastbourne with some elevation toward the northern end of the road. The area is less directly exposed to coastal salt loading than the seafront but still within the broader East Sussex coastal climate. Properties at the Langney Road end of the area are in a more urban sheltered position; those further north have slightly more open exposure toward the Downs.
Concrete interlocking tile de-nailing on the 1960s–80s properties is the most frequent repair call from the Hide Hollow area — this stock is now at 40–60 years, the upper end of the concrete interlocking tile design life. Flat roof rear extension failures are an increasing call as 1970s–80s felt systems reach end of life. Ridge mortar failure on exposed north-facing elevations is a secondary ongoing issue.
"Concrete tile de-nailing on the 1972 semi — rear slope tiles loose. Diagnosed honestly, re-nailed with stainless. Told us we're 3–5 years from needing a full re-roof. Appreciated the straight advice."
"Flat roof on the rear extension — original 1975 felt, had been leaking every winter for three years. GRP replacement done in a day. Problem solved."
"Ridge tiles down after January gale — called morning, on site lunchtime, made safe same day. Good responsive service."
