How do I know if roof repairs will be economically viable?
APC Roofing will visit your home or business in Worthing to assess the current condition of your roof and will only recommend repairs if there are long-term benefits to doing so. If a repair isn’t likely to be economically viable, we will explain why and will always be nothing less than 100% transparent with you.
If we do recommend roof repairs, we assure you that they will last.
When can I call you for emergency roofing repairs?
We are available to take your emergency calls 24 hours a day, 7 days of the week. It is important to APC Roofing that our customers and clients have a responsive service available at the times where it is most needed. Day or night, our roofers will be there to provide you with their skills and experience.
Emergency roof repairs might require a temporary fix to protect a Worthing property until we can return to do a job that will be more permanent.
Can you undertake roof tile replacements as insurance work?
APC Roofing undertakes roof tile replacements after storms or periods of high winds. Often, the customer will want the required work to pass through an insurance provider. This is never a problem for our company. We deal with all major insurers and consult with them on your behalf to make life simple.
All roof tile replacements will match the current installation to perfection.
Which materials can you use to replace bitumen felt roofing?
Older flat roofing systems tend to be beyond economical repair so, after an inspection, our roofers will probably suggest a replacement. We can still use felt if you require it using torch-on materials for increased safety, or we can fit your Worthing property with the latest EDPM rubber or GRP fibreglass systems.
The old deck of your flat roofing structure can be replaced with OSB boards.
Will a new roof installation cause major disruption?
It wouldn’t be honest of any roofing company to say a new roof installation is a hassle-free experience but at APC Roofing, we promise to make any kind of service as painless as possible. It is uncommon for us to ever ask you about vacating a property and we only do so if it is deemed completely necessary.
We usually undertake new roof installations in stages to stop disruption.
Can you undertake chimney repairs using stone?
Yes. If a property in Worthing was built before the Second World War or prior to the 1950s, it will most likely have a stone chimney. We use sandstone to repair chimneys of this type, and it is a material that is more widely available now than ever before thanks to its popularity as a hard surfacing material.
Properties built from the 1950s onwards usually require brick chimney repairs.
What do your property maintenance services cover?
Because we trade as roofers, it makes sense that much of the work we do is connected to roofing in one way or another. With all things said, we include interior and exterior repair work in our property maintenance repertoire, and our team can even take on plastering, tiling, painting and decorating work.
This gives our Worthing customers access to all services from one phone call.
