East Sussex Roofing is repeatedly described as professional and well organised, with many reviewers saying Edward and the team kept them updated through photos and videos. Several customers report emergency call-outs, including a leak after heavy rain, storm work at short notice and a bank holiday call-out, with scaffolding arranged quickly. Reviewers also mention full and partial roof replacements, guttering and fascias, chimney work and a dry ridge system, with tidy clean-ups and good communication reported. Plenty of customers say the work was carried out on time and to a high standard, and many would recommend the firm. One reviewer says the team could not fix a leaking living roof because of its construction but diagnosed the problem and found the right person, without charging.
We cannot recommend East Sussex Roofing highly enough. We were faced with a serious emergency when roof of our building required urgent replacement. From the moment we contacted them after heavy rainfall and water coming into the building, their response was exceptional. They acted incredibly quickly, organising emergency scaffolding and getting everything in place to make the building safe and carry out the necessary work without delay. Their professionalism, efficiency and communication throughout were second to none. They immediately understood the urgency of the situation and took complete control of the logistics, making what could have been an extremely stressful experience remarkably straightforward. Their quotation was also extremely fair and reasonable, particularly given the urgency and scale of the work required. At no point did we feel that the emergency situation was being taken advantage of, which we really appreciated. The entire team were hardworking, knowledgeable, reliable and clearly took enormous pride in their workmanship.Their attention to detail and commitment to getting the job done properly were outstanding with photos and videos sent at every stage . It is genuinely refreshing to find a company that combines excellent workmanship, fair pricing and exceptional customer service, particularly when dealing with an emergency. Edward runs an absolutely first class company. We are incredibly grateful for their swift response, professionalism and outstanding service. We wouldn’t hesitate to recommend them.
Amazing service from East Sussex Roofing. We had a terrible leak after the recent heavy rainfall in Brighton and they came the same day we called, diagnosed the problem and had scaffolding up within a couple of days and fixed a major issue with the old roof. Very professional, superb work! I highly recommend them! If you have any roof work that needs to be done I would definitely give them a call.
Ed and his team did a fantastic job replacing part of my roof and installing insulation. They were professional, efficient, and friendly. Good communication and clean up too.
East Sussex Roofing worked in a storm at short notice to get our roof dry and kept us informed with videos of the problem areas -pretty extensive works - really helpful guys, professional advice/repairs.
We used East Sussex Roofing on our tall Victorian property on the Kemptown seafront, and we can't recommend them highly enough. We first called Edward about a leak around the chimney. While investigating, he discovered a series of further issues and showed us each one, both by video and in person, so we could see exactly what was going on. He then talked us through the options in a pragmatic and clear way. There was no exaggeration and no upselling, just honest advice on what needed doing and why. The job included replacing the guttering. Edward kindly selected a more suitable product than the one we had previously, which says a lot about the care he takes. Throughout, he was professional, proactive and responsive. He kept us updated without us having to chase, and whenever we had a question we got a quick and helpful reply. If you need a roofer who is honest, communicates well and does the job properly, especially on a challenging older building, we'd recommend Edward and East Sussex Roofing without hesitation.
I can recommend Ed and his team. They re-fitted a flat roof that was leaking, staying late to make sure it was watertight the same day. Joe was courteous, making sure everything was done properly. Roof looks great, thanks so much guys.
Great workmanship carried out very neatly. Dealt with the problems that inevitably come up with old buildings very resourcefully and promptly. Cleaned up very well after themselves. Very nice bunch of people
These guys were great and on time. They did exactly what I asked them to do and removed all rubbish from site. I highly recommend them!
Great jobs from the lads at ESR! It was an emergency job and they didn’t exploit that, very reasonable price and a quick response time too. Would definitely recommend and will be using them again for any future roofing works we may need.
Edward and the team at East Sussex Roofing did an excellent job replacing our front roof. The whole project was completed in under a week, from scaffolding going up to the final clear-up and scaffolding removal. The work included removing the old roof covering, installing a new breathable membrane and battens, relaying the tiles, fitting a new dry ridge system, and carrying out additional work to the parapet/fire walls with a new felt finish. Everything was completed efficiently and to a high standard. Communication was straightforward throughout, and Edward kept us updated with photos and videos sent via WhatsApp during each stage of the work. A drone survey was also provided. The site was kept tidy, all waste materials were removed, and the finished result looks excellent. It's refreshing to find a contractor who turns up when they say they will, communicates well, and gets the job done efficiently. I would happily recommend East Sussex Roofing to anyone needing roofing work carried out.
Amazing service from Edward and his team ! Really good communication and a very quick turn around. Highly recommend, a super reliable company.
We had an emergency situation when the bonnet tiles detached from our roof and almost slid off entirely. Thankfully a call to Edward and the very next morning scaffolding was up and the bonnet tiles safely removed. His team then replaced it, and did a roof inspection to ensure it was all safe. All of this was managed over a 9hr time difference (as we live in Australia). It couldn’t have gone more smoothly. Edward was extremely responsive, proactive, polite and professional. Can’t recommend highly enough!
Edward brought his team out to clean moss laden gutters. Job done quickly and efficiently. Caring polite and offered helpful advice about future property maintenance. Very pleased.
All work done as agreed, fast and clean no problems
Dayle arrived promptly on a Saturday morning, whilst having only been asked for a quote substantially fixed the problems on the spot! Couldn’t recommend him more. Thanks Dayle.
Fantastic service from Edward and his team. Came out urgently in the rain on a bank holiday to find the problem with our leaking roof. From start to finish they showed me loads of photos and videos to highlight the problem and how they were fixing it. The team worked hard and clearly are proud of delivering work to a high standard. Edward is fantastic at keeping you updated - I never had to chase anything. Thanks again!
Quick and thorough diagnosis and fix of my firewall issue. Clear communication and easy to deal with.
Used Edward to do some maintenance and fit new dry ridge system. All work completed very quickly at sensible price. Very good communications and pictures supplied throughout. Will be using again.
Edward has very kindly donated roof tiles to the Wellsbourne Healthcare CIC Community Garden. These are going to be used for signage for our planters filled with veg and flowers. Our wonderful garden volunteers have created some beautiful signs and the tiles are perfect, light weight and durable. Thank you so much ⭐⭐⭐⭐
I moved to Brighton in the summer and had lots of issues with my property. I got in touch with East Sussex roofing who were incredibly helpful and came and identified the issues and gave solutions with no cost. Edward was honest and clear and his team have fully fixed my leaking roof. He has also been in touch to ask how it’s holding up and has come over to fix other small issues at no extra cost. Edward and the team are now fixing cracks and leaks at the front and back of my house as well as repainting it. Would highly recommend using East Sussex Roofing! Very happy with their work
Called them out after a fascia fell from our roof. They sorted it out quickly and communication was great throughout. Ended up getting all the other fascias done while we were at it. Would recommend!
Following discussion and an appraisal of what needed doing, Edward returned with his team and carried out the work to our roof quickly and efficiently. He was always on hand to answer questions which he did promptly. Photos of the work were also provided. Scaffolding went up quickly and was removed soon after the job had been completed (unlike other situations where scaffolding can remain in place for weeks). All in all, we were very happy.
So lucky to have a team like East Sussex roofing give us a very fair quote of having a whole insulation of a new roof fully installed on time cleanup was amazing new facia, and all new gutter rings and really have to say really amazed. They are a brilliant team would highly recommend East Sussex roofing really kind and respectfull thank u guys
These guys have been amazing. We have a tricky situation with a leaking living roof. Although they were unable to actually fix the problem because of it’s specific construction they’ve taken the time to diagnose the problem and find us the right person to help us fix it without charging us at all. Really appreciate your help!
Prompt and efficient service, by two friendly tradesmen. Reasonable charges and would recommend.

Extremely knowledgeable and gave great advice. Very fair price for an excellent job – would definitely recommend.
Edward, his son and Micky were brilliant when carrying out our guttering and roofing work. They came with very short notice and completed the work to very high standards. They even refitted one section of the guttering as they weren’t 100% happy with the water flow. Very polite and professional team, and upfront with all advice and pricing. I would highly recommend them.
They turned up at short notice, did a fantastic job putting someone else’s mistake right! I highly recommend them, I’ll definitely be using them again!
Completed the work to a high quality, and when they believed additional work was required made sure I was informed enough to make that decision. Conscientious and fair.
Speedy, reliable, and reasonable service, will use them again.
Recently had guttering/downpipe and a small flat roof replaced by East Sussex Roofing on an old very tall 6 storey building. Edward is excellent at communicating and kept us updated all the time. They delivered the work to a good standard and on time. We wanted to use a local business and I am pleased we chose this one. Definitely recommend.
Great job - flexible, knowledgeable and fast. Edward is easy to talk to and assesses what is needed before work starts.
Really happy with the work we had done repointing the front of the house and fixing the side of the roof. After agreeing a good price the scaffolding was up the next day and work began immediately. Hard working team of about 6guys breezed through what I thought would be a huge inconvenience for us and neighbours. Many hands make roof work! Thank you
Guttering and roofing impecible. Great people, great work. Very much appreciated. Would recommend for any service
Edward couldn't have been more helpful from start to finish. The scaffolding was all organised, the work was done swiftly and communicated effectively. Any issues were ironed out and additional work that was recommended undertaken at the same time.
A very friendly and hard working family team. They were clear and precise about what needed to be done and showed us photos of what repairs were needed. Excellent communication....always on time and worked all through each day. Great to have our house looking so much better!
I couldn't be happier with the service and our roof. We've had so many issues over the years which multiple roofers failed to address. Edward and his team not only fixed the issues but they were so helpful and approachable and offered lots of advice. Plus, our roof looks great too!
Edward and his team did a great job on our slate roof replacement. The job was complex due to the type of roof, mistakes from a prior repair and structural repairs needed. Edward addressed all these issues confidently and calmly. The communication was good throughout and the job was delivered on time and within the promised quote.
Trustworthy, professional, helpful, transparent company, highly recommended. Wonderful job you did on my roof, fair pricing.
I recently had my chimney repaired, and I'm thrilled with the results! The team was knowledgeable, efficient, and went above and beyond to ensure everything was done correctly. Very happy have recommended to my neighbour which have had worked done recently
