We have a listed 1852 villa in Hove which is fun to live in but is often difficult and/or expensive to repair. In this case the problem was a long roof gulley between two high pitched roofs that had been leaking on and off over the last 3 years into the bedroom below. SW gales do not help in this neighbourhood and building standards have evolved considerably over the last 160+ years! A previous attempted repair by another contractor had failed, probably under the stress of the hot summer of 2018. Access was difficult and scaffolding was essential for safe working conditions. Another trustworthy and highly recommended trader, Mark Gunn of MRG Ltd, now based in Steyning, recommended Ian Johnson at Pinnacle Roofing. Ian met or exceeded all our expectations - which is the best definition of a quality performance! He came on time, discussed the job and the various options available and the likely costs involved. We agreed that a full replacement with asphalt would be the best solution and we were happy to go ahead with him. His scaffolders and asphalters arrived on time and were equally courteous and careful. The job was completed on time and inside budget, with photographs to show progress. Given my personal fear of heights, this was essential! It was a pleasure to have Ian and his son in and around our home and handling this quite complicated repair for us and we would be pleased to recommend them to anyone else needing roof repairs in or around Hove.
