Sussex coverageLocal roof knowledge
Understand the roof.
Not just the room below.
A ceiling stain is only one part of the story. The relevant detail may be at a chimney, a roof junction or a concealed valley. Start by asking what is visible from outside and what still needs investigation.
Discuss a Brighton property ↗Junctions and changes in level
Where a dormer, chimney or extension meets the main roof, the detail matters. We consider visible flashings, coverings and the route water takes.
Shared and difficult access
For terraced or divided properties, tell us which part of the roof is included and how access can be arranged. Ownership and responsibility should be checked separately.
Questions before exchange
Send any comments from your building survey. A targeted roof inspection can help you explore those concerns before you decide on the next step.
Turn the view
into a next step.
The useful outcome is a clearer understanding of the roof’s visible condition, with photographs and an explanation of the findings.
- Identify the areas that deserve attention
- Understand inspection and access limitations
- Discuss suitable repairs or further investigation
Scope, price and reporting arrangements are agreed before booking. A roof inspection does not guarantee that every hidden defect will be found.

Before you
book.
Can you look at a roof on a Brighton terrace?
Yes, subject to suitable access and the agreed scope. Tell us about shared areas, rear access and any neighbouring property permissions that may be needed.
Does a ceiling stain prove where a roof is leaking?
No. Water can travel before it becomes visible inside. External inspection can identify areas of concern, but confirming a leak route may require further investigation.
Do you provide insurance inspection reports in Brighton?
We offer roof condition inspections for insurance enquiries. Visit our insurance inspections page and share the insurer’s requirements before booking.
