We provide documented roof repairs and planned maintenance for Chichester landlords, with fast response, written condition reports, and work that meets your statutory repair obligations. Portfolio rates available. No call-out fee. Call 01243 278085. Reports satisfy letting agents and demonstrate compliance with your statutory repair obligations across the portfolio.
Landlords have specific legal duties to keep the structure and exterior of a rental property in repair, and the roof is central to that. We provide a roofing service built around those obligations: fast response to tenant-reported problems, written documentation for your records, and work carried out to a standard that satisfies letting agents and protects you in the event of a dispute.
Every job comes with a written report — what was found, what was done, and photographs. This record matters for landlords: it demonstrates you acted on a repair obligation, satisfies letting agent requirements, and provides evidence of compliance. For managed portfolios we keep a maintenance history across all your properties.
Reactive repair is more expensive than planned maintenance. We offer scheduled inspections and preventative work across landlord portfolios, catching the small problems — a slipped tile, a blocked valley, a lifting flashing — before they become the water ingress that damages a tenant's belongings and triggers a complaint.
Chichester has a substantial rental market, from the student and young-professional lets in the city centre and around the college, to the family rental stock across Portfield, Donnington and the surrounding estates. Each type brings its own roofing pattern. The post-war concrete tile rental properties in Portfield are at the nail sickness stage, generating slipped-tile call-outs that need prompt, documented response to keep tenants dry and complaints down.
The Victorian terrace rentals of St Pancras and Whyke bring period-property issues — lead flashing failures, ridge mortar deterioration — that require matched materials and, in conservation areas, compliant specification. We handle both ends of the Chichester rental spectrum, and our documentation satisfies the letting agents who manage much of the city's rental stock.
The repair obligations on Chichester landlords are significant, and the roof is where many of them bite. A leaking roof can quickly become a disrepair or fitness-for-habitation issue, and the timescales for responding to hazards have tightened. We provide the fast, documented response that keeps you on the right side of those duties — and the written records that prove you did.
Reactive repairs start from £150 with written documentation included. Portfolio landlords receive scheduled maintenance rates and a consolidated maintenance history. Chichester sits at the southern England baseline for labour, with no call-out fee.
Under Section 11 of the Landlord and Tenant Act 1985, landlords must keep the structure and exterior in repair; the Homes (Fitness for Human Habitation) Act 2018 requires properties to be fit for habitation; and Awaab's Law sets strict timescales for addressing serious hazards including damp.

📞 01243 278085For a Chichester landlord, the roof is where several legal duties converge, and a roofing service that understands those duties is worth more than one that simply turns up. Here is how we help you stay compliant and protected.
Your repairing obligations are not optional. Section 11 of the Landlord and Tenant Act 1985 requires you to keep the structure and exterior in repair. The Homes (Fitness for Human Habitation) Act 2018 requires the property to be fit to live in throughout the tenancy. And Awaab's Law has introduced strict timescales for responding to serious hazards, particularly damp and mould — exactly the problems a leaking roof causes. A roof defect can engage all three at once, which is why prompt, documented action matters.
Every job we do for a landlord comes with a written report — what was found, what was done, with photographs and dates. This record is not bureaucracy; it is your evidence. It demonstrates that you acted on a repair obligation within a reasonable time, it satisfies your letting agent's requirements, and it is precisely what you need if a tenant ever raises a disrepair or fitness complaint. For managed portfolios we keep a consolidated maintenance history across all your properties, so the paper trail is complete.
The cheapest roof problem is the one caught before the tenant notices it. Scheduled inspections across your portfolio identify the slipped tile, the blocked valley, the lifting flashing before they become the leak that damages a tenant's belongings, triggers a complaint, and starts an Awaab's Law clock. Planned maintenance is both cheaper over time and far less stressful than a run of emergency call-outs, and it demonstrates the proactive management that protects you.
When a tenant reports a leak, the clock is running — on the damage, on the tenant relationship, and increasingly on your legal timescales. We respond fast, with same-day attendance for genuine emergencies, and we document the response. Prompt action keeps a small roof problem from becoming a habitability issue and keeps you on the right side of your duties.
From the city-centre and college-area lets to the family rental stock in Portfield and Donnington and the period terraces of St Pancras and Whyke, we understand the roofing patterns of Chichester's rental housing and the letting agents who manage much of it. Whatever the property type, the service is the same: prompt, documented, compliant, and priced fairly with portfolio rates for multiple properties.
