Building Services in Lancing
Lancing is where we are based. Roofing, renovations, repairs and maintenance from a team that is already in the village.
Lancing Is Where We Are Based
Everything we do runs from Lancing. We are based at BN15, which means that for Lancing jobs there is no travel time to account for, no minimum job size to make the trip worthwhile, and no waiting several days for someone to be in the area. If you need a look at something quickly, this is the one place we can usually manage it.
It also means we know the housing stock here better than anywhere else — North Lancing, South Lancing towards the beach, and the large interwar and postwar estates in between. Call Harry on 07598 864363.
Everything We Do, On Our Doorstep
Lancing is the one place where the whole service list is genuinely local: roofing, plumbing, electrical work, kitchen fitting, tiling, flooring, plastering, fencing, gutter cleaning and gutter repair, decking, block paving, drywall repair, TV mounting and flat-pack assembly.
Small jobs are worth doing here precisely because we are local. A single blocked gutter or a door that will not close is not worth a call-out from twenty miles away; from Lancing it is.
What We Offer in Lancing
The full service list, on our own doorstep — from a single repair to a complete refurbishment.
What Lancing Properties Tend to Need
Lancing runs from the beach up to the downs, and the exposure changes noticeably along the way. South Lancing, close to the seafront, takes salt air directly: gutter brackets and metal fixings corrode, exterior paint fails early on south elevations, and render needs attention on a shorter cycle than it would inland.
The interwar and postwar estates that make up the bulk of the village are now at the point where whole categories of component come due at once. Concrete roof tiles laid in the fifties and sixties are reaching end of life; original render is cracking; fencing between plots is at replacement rather than repair stage; and the first generation of double glazing has failed.
North Lancing has the older core and more mature trees, which means gutters filling with leaf litter every autumn and, on some plots, root activity affecting paths, patios and boundary walls.
Why Being Local Actually Matters
Most of the frustrations people have with builders come down to distance in one way or another: not being able to pop back for a snag, not being available when something goes wrong, waiting to be fitted in around a trip to the area. None of that applies here. If something is not right after we have finished, we are ten minutes away and we will come back and sort it.

Frequently Asked Questions
Are you actually based in Lancing?
Yes. The business operates from Lancing, BN15. It is not a satellite address — it is where we are and where we work from every day.
Will you come out for a small job in Lancing?
Yes. Being local is exactly what makes small jobs viable. A single blocked gutter or a door that will not shut is not worth a call-out from twenty miles away; from here it is.
How quickly can you get to me in Lancing?
Usually the fastest of anywhere we cover. For urgent work like an active leak we will get to you as quickly as we can, often the same day.
Why does exterior paint fail so quickly in South Lancing?
Proximity to the seafront. Salt-laden air holds moisture against the surface and gets into any crack, so south-facing elevations near the beach need repainting on a shorter cycle than inland property.
My roof tiles are original from the 1950s — do they need replacing?
Concrete tiles of that age are typically at or past their intended life, and by then the felt and battens underneath usually need attention too. We will tell you honestly whether it is a repair or a re-roof after looking at it.
Do you come back if something is not right?
Yes. We are ten minutes away. If there is a snag after we have finished, call and we will come and put it right.
