Four depots covering the whole of Sussex

Brian Gow Roofing Supplies has been an independent, family-run roofing merchant since 1996, and today we run four depots that between them cover East and West Sussex, from the coast to the High Weald. Wherever your job is in the county, there is usually a branch within easy reach, and we deliver roofing materials across Sussex and the wider South East. Our depots are Burgess Hill and Haywards Heath (Scaynes Hill) in West Sussex, and Hailsham and Upper Hartfield in East Sussex, with Scaynes Hill holding the bulk of our stock.

Each depot has its own patch. Find the page for your town or nearest branch for local stock, delivery and contact details.

Roofing materials for Sussex roofs

Sussex has an unusually varied roofscape, and we stock for all of it. The Wealden villages and the towns along the Downs are full of period and tile-hung property, where handmade clay tiles, peg tiles and natural slate keep roofs in character. On the coast at Brighton, Hove and Hastings, wind-driven rain and salt air put a premium on well-detailed lead and sound flat roofing. Across the county we hold:

Clay and concrete tiles, natural and fibre-cement slate for pitched roofs. See the pitched roofing range, or weigh the options in our clay versus concrete tiles and natural slate guides.
Lead and leadwork, including BBA-approved milled lead with a cutting service. Our lead range and lead flashing codes guide cover the detail.
Flat-roof systems, from torch-on felt to GRP fibreglass. See the flat roofing range and our GRP flat roofing guide.
VELUX roof windows, membranes, dry-fix, fascia, soffit and guttering to finish the job.
