"I couldn't be happier with the roofing work carried out on my house by Hermitage Group. From the initial quote through to completing the job, Sam and his team were professional, friendly, and a pleasure to deal with. The workmanship is excellent, the job was completed to a very high standard, and everything was left clean and tidy throughout. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend Sam and everyone at Hermitage Group to anyone looking for a reliable, honest, and skilled company. Thank you all for doing such a great job!"

Why Brighton homeowners choose Hermitage Group

No pushy sales calls. No surprise extras. Just the same straight-talking service Sam and the team have given for 24 years.

Same-day callback

Submit a quote request and a real local roofer rings you back during working hours - not a call centre.

Fixed written prices

Every quote is a fixed total in writing. No hourly rates, no "we found extra problems" surprises after work begins.

12-year guarantee

All workmanship is backed by a 12-year written guarantee. If something goes wrong on a job we did, we come back and fix it.

Properly local

We know Brighton's Regency terraces and hillside conversions inside out, and how salt air and Channel storms wear down flat roofs and clay tiles along this coast. Twenty-four years in, our vans are never far from Worthing, Shoreham or the Downs villages.

The team were extremely polite respectful and courteous at all times. We are delighted with the finished work and our neighbours and passers-by have repeatedly complimented both the quality of work done and the sensitive manners of the builders. We can't thank them enough and we have no hesitation to give 5 stars plus."

Common questions

If we haven't answered yours, just call - Sam or one of the team will help.

How quickly can you come out?
For active leaks we usually get someone out the same day or next morning. Standard quote visits are typically within 2-3 working days, scheduled at a time that suits you.
Is the quote really free? Will you pressure me to book?
Yes, completely free, with no hard sell. We give you a written quote and follow up once - that's it. Most of our customers compare three quotes; we're happy to be one of them.
Are you insured?
Yes - we carry full public liability and employer's liability insurance. We're happy to email a copy of the certificate before any work starts. Just ask.
What's covered by the 12-year guarantee?
All workmanship - meaning if something goes wrong because of how we fitted it, we come back and put it right at no cost, for 12 years. Materials are covered separately by the manufacturer's warranty (typically 10-25 years depending on product).
What if there's bad weather during the job?
We weather-watch every job and only do work we can finish or protect the same day. We've never had a customer's home damaged by weather mid-job.
Do you work outside Brighton?
Our core area is Brighton, Worthing, Shoreham-by-Sea and Haywards Heath and surrounding villages. We can occasionally take jobs further afield - best to call and check.
Do I need to pay anything up front?
For repairs, no - you pay on completion once you're happy. For larger replacement jobs we ask for a materials deposit (typically 25%) once the job is booked, then the balance on completion.
