Roofer in Petworth – Re-Roofing & Restoration
Petworth’s streetscape is centuries old, and its roofs are a big part of its character — hand-made clay tiles, stone-flagged eaves and slate, weathered into the townscape. When a roof like that reaches the end of its life, the aim isn’t just a watertight house: it’s a new roof that still looks as if it belongs.
Evo Roofing re-roofs and restores older properties in Petworth, Pulborough and the surrounding West Sussex villages.
Re-roofing older properties properly
- Stripping carefully so sound original tiles and slates can be salvaged and reused
- Matching new materials to the old — colour, texture and coursing — where full replacement is needed
- Repairing roof timbers found under the old covering, priced openly
- New breathable membrane and battens behind a traditional-looking finish
- Renewing leadwork, valleys and flashings to match the building
Restoration before replacement
“Restoration” isn’t a sales word to us — it means keeping as much of the original roof as sensibly possible. Many older roofs around Petworth don’t need wholesale replacement: re-bedding ridges, renewing flashings and swapping the failed tiles can put decades back into a roof for a fraction of the cost. We’ll survey yours, show you what we find, and set out the options honestly — from targeted repairs through to a full re-roof — each with a clear written price.
Listed buildings and conservation areas
If your property is listed or in the conservation area, roofing choices may need consent. We’ll work with whatever your planning position requires and keep materials and details appropriate to the building.
