New Roof Installations in Brighton, East Preston and the Surrounding Areas | Located in Worthing
As our name rightly suggests, roofing is the principal focus for our team with a sizeable proportion of our services in the Arundel, Brighton, East Preston and Woodingdean areas being dedicated to new roof installations. We can also cover all locations within a wide radius of our home in Worthing. While many a roofing company will narrow down services to focus solely on pitched or flat roofing, we construct any roof using high-end materials and techniques.
All materials come from manufacturers that we implicitly trust.
As accredited roofers with more than 60 years of combined experience in the trade, we are an ideal choice for domestic and commercial installations.
There are many reasons for having a new roof constructed. Perhaps you are a developer working on a new build scheme, or a homeowner with an older roof that is constantly causing issues. By bringing in JAH Roofing Specialists, it is possible to have a new roof installed that will match the property’s existing architectural features and score well in terms of function and kerb appeal.

Pitched Roof Construction
Pitched roofs consist of wooden frames or trusses, covered with a layer of felt or a similar material. These are finished with your choice of slates or tiles. The construction process usually begins with the installation of a timber framework or the trusses. This sees our roofing company using timber, bolted together to form the triangular-shaped structure usually associated with pitched roofing.
The trusses are then raised onto the walls and secured into place.
Next, a membrane is laid over the trusses to create a waterproof barrier. We can also construct a temporary roof to stop the unpredictable weather from impacting our work in Worthing and the surrounding Arundel, Brighton, East Preston and Woodingdean areas. This is followed by installing battens, which are wooden strips that create a space for the slates or tiles to be attached.
Finally, to complete new roof installations, the slates or tiles are installed onto the top of the battens, where we use nails or clips to hold them into place. A roof will also be finished with additional features such as guttering, fascias or soffits to form a roofline and provide further protection from the elements.
All leadwork is included within this service, and we also install Sandtoft in-roof solar systems for those who need innovative, energy-saving solutions.
