Covering Littlehampton
Our coverage around Littlehampton (BN17) also includes Bognor Regis (6 miles to the west) and Worthing.
Homes in the South East
Housing across the South East mixes inter-war semis, post-war estates and older cottages in villages and market towns, so rear and side extensions, hip-to-gable lofts and garage conversions all come up regularly.
What do you get with re-roofing?
Re-roofing means stripping a pitched roof back to the rafters and replacing the membrane, battens, tiles or slates, ridge and flashings. It is needed when a roof covering reaches the end of its life, and it is the right time to improve loft insulation.
- Roof survey and quotation
- Scaffolding and edge protection
- Fascias, soffits and guttering if required

Planning and building rules in Littlehampton
In England we deal with the council’s planning team for permission or a lawful development certificate, with building control (the council or a registered building control approver) for inspections, and with neighbours under the Party Wall etc. Act 1996 where it applies.
Replacing a roof covering like for like does not usually need planning permission in England. Conservation areas with Article 4 directions and listed buildings are the exceptions.
What can change the price or programme?
- Heavier tiles than the original can overload old rafters.
- Bats can roost in roofs; if signs are found, work pauses for advice.
What happens after I enquire?
- Tell us about the project. Call, use the guide price tool or send the form with a few photos and a postcode.
- Free site visit. We measure up, look at access, drains and the structure, and talk through options and budget.
- Price and paperwork. The design is priced line by line, and we submit the planning and building control applications.
- Build and hand over. Our teams build to the programme, building control inspects, and you get the completion paperwork at the end.
Questions about re-roofing in Littlehampton
Do I need planning permission to re-roof?
Not usually for like-for-like replacement, unless the house is listed or in a conservation area with extra controls.
Should I replace the fascias at the same time?
Usually yes, because the scaffolding is already up.
Who deals with the council for a project in Littlehampton?
We do. We prepare the drawings, submit planning or permitted development paperwork if needed, and arrange building control inspections.
