Trust Your Roof to Orpington's Leading Roofing & Building Experts

Even a minor leak or a few slipped tiles can quickly escalate, leading to significant internal water damage, timber rot, and expensive structural issues. Our roof repair service is designed to be fast, highly efficient, and incredibly thorough. We don't just put a plaster on the problem; we meticulously identify the root cause – be it failed flashing, cracked tiles, blocked valleys, or storm damage. We provide rapid emergency call-outs across our service area to promptly secure your property and prevent any further damage. Beyond urgent fixes, we believe that regular, proactive maintenance is crucial. We offer essential services from professional moss removal to annual inspections, all designed to keep your roof in optimum condition year after year.
Common Repairs We Handle:

• Leak Detection & Repair: Leveraging our extensive experience, we pinpoint the exact source of water ingress and provide a durable, lasting fix.
• Tile & Slate Replacement: We pride ourselves on sourcing matching tiles or slates to seamlessly replace any cracked, slipped, or missing ones, maintaining your roof's integrity and appearance.
• Chimney Repairs: Our expertise covers everything from re-pointing crumbling mortar joints and repairing damaged lead flashings to a complete rebuild of the chimney stack if required.
• Ridge & Verge Repairs: We carefully re-bed loose ridge tiles using a robust mortar mix, and can also install modern dry-ridge or dry-verge systems for a long-lasting, low-maintenance solution.
• Flat Roof Repairs: We skillfully patch punctures in EPDM or GRP systems, or seal splits in felt roofing, effectively extending its lifespan and restoring watertightness.
• Moss Removal & Roof Cleaning: We safely remove unsightly and damaging moss, algae, and lichen, which can trap moisture and degrade your roof surface over time.

Gain a crystal-clear, comprehensive understanding of your roof's true condition without the significant expense and disruption of scaffolding. Our drone roof survey service uses cutting-edge, high-resolution cameras to capture incredibly detailed images and videos of your entire roof structure. This includes those hard-to-reach areas often missed by ground inspections, such as chimney stacks, complex valleys, and high-level flat roofs. This service is an invaluable tool for pre-purchase homebuyer reports, precise insurance assessments, or simply to accurately diagnose a persistent roofing issue. You’ll receive a full, easy-to-understand report complete with annotated images, giving you a complete, visual breakdown of any defects or areas needing professional attention.
Benefits of Our Drone Surveys:

• Safety First: No need for dangerous ladders or costly scaffolding for the initial inspection.
• Cost-Effective: A much faster and more affordable solution compared to traditional survey methods.
• Pinpoint Accuracy: High-definition imagery reveals even tiny cracked tiles, subtle signs of failed mortar, or other issues completely invisible from ground level.
• Clear Documentation: Provides invaluable, undeniable visual evidence for insurance claims or crucial property negotiations.

Your roofline – comprising your fascias, soffits, and guttering – forms a critical protective barrier between your roof and your property's walls. It's absolutely vital for preventing water ingress and allowing your roof space to breathe properly. At Kevington Roofing and Building LTD, we specialise in the complete replacement of old, deteriorating timber fascias, soffits, and bargeboards with high-quality, ultra-low maintenance UPVC systems. Crucially, unlike simply ‘capping’ or ‘cladding’ over old timber, our full replacement service involves carefully removing all rotten wood. We then meticulously check the rafter ends for soundness before installing a completely new, weatherproof UPVC system that will perform flawlessly for many years, without ever needing a lick of paint. We also expertly install, repair, and clean all types of guttering, ensuring rainwater is efficiently collected and directed away from your property.
Technical Terms Explained Simply:

• Fascia: This is the long, straight board that runs along the lower edge of your roof, directly beneath the roof tiles. It’s where your guttering is fixed.
• Soffit: The board you see from below, typically tucked under the fascia. Soffits often feature ventilation slots to allow air circulation in your roof space.
• Bargeboard: Similar to a fascia, but found on the gable end of a house, covering the timber eaves.
• Guttering: The essential channel that collects rainwater from your roof and directs it into downpipes, away from your home’s foundations.
