When Is It Time for a Re-Roof? Recognising the Signs

Deciding on a full re-roof can feel like a big step, but often, it's the most cost-effective long-term solution. You might need a new roof if you're constantly dealing with leaks, finding numerous cracked or missing tiles, or noticing significant moss and algae growth that's damaging your roof structure. Older roofs, particularly those past their expected lifespan, can also be a major source of heat loss, pushing up your energy bills. A complete re-roof addresses these issues holistically, providing peace of mind and potentially adding significant value to your Brentwood home. We provide honest advice to help you make the best decision.

Our Trusted Re-Roofing Process: From Assessment to Immaculate Finish

At Kevington Roofing, we manage everything from start to finish. Our comprehensive re-roofing service begins with a thorough inspection of your existing roof structure. We then provide a transparent, no-obligation quotation, outlining the best materials and approach for your property. Once agreed, our experienced team carefully removes the old roof covering, checks the timbers and structure, and installs modern, breathable membranes and treated timber battens. We pay meticulous attention to every detail, from the precise laying of your chosen tiles or slates to ensuring all verges, ridges, and valleys are perfectly weatherproofed. Our work ensures a durable, beautiful roof that will stand the test of time.

Pitched Roof Renewals: Classic Tiles & Enduring Slates for Brentwood Homes

Pitched roofs are a hallmark of British homes, and we are experts in their complete renewal. Whether your home suits the robust performance of modern concrete tiles from leading brands like Marley and Redland, or the timeless elegance of natural slate – be it Welsh or Spanish – we source and install only the highest quality materials. We also offer durable man-made composite slates for a premium finish that mimics natural materials. Our team’s deep experience means your new pitched roof will not only look fantastic but will also provide excellent long-term protection, improving your home's thermal efficiency and kerb appeal.

Modern Flat Roof Replacements: GRP, EPDM & High-Performance Felt

For extensions, garages, or specific architectural designs, a flat roof demands a cutting-edge solution. We offer three primary, highly effective flat roof re-roofing systems, far superior to older, less reliable methods. GRP fibreglass forms a seamless, incredibly tough, and completely waterproof layer, ideal for areas with foot traffic. EPDM rubber, a single-ply membrane, offers remarkable flexibility and an exceptionally long lifespan, making it a fantastic durable solution. For a robust and cost-effective option, our multi-layer torch-on high-performance felt systems are expertly installed for maximum longevity and watertight integrity. We ensure your new flat roof provides decades of reliable protection.

Integrated Roofline Solutions: Gutters, Fascias, and Soffits

A re-roofing project is the ideal time to consider updating your roofline – the fascias, soffits, and guttering – as they are integral to your roof's overall performance. We specialise in replacing old, rotting timber with durable, low-maintenance UPVC systems. This isn’t just capping over old wood; we remove the old materials, check the rafter ends for soundness, and install a completely new, weatherproof system. We also install, repair, and clean all types of guttering to ensure rainwater is efficiently managed away from your property. This integrated approach ensures your entire roof system is robust and protects your home comprehensively.

What Our Clients Say About Kevington Roofing and Building LTD

"Fantastic service from the team at Kevington Roofing and Building today. They were recommended by a friend and I was very impressed. I’ll be using them again."

Celia Bennett

"Reliable and prompt - the Kevington team was able to view the property and provide options and transparent, itemised quotes on the same day I called. After deciding what level of work I wanted done, they returned soon after to carry out the roof repairs to a high standard without me even needing to be there."

Philip Day

"Highly recommended! Great price! First class job. Nothing was too much for these lads, very polite, got the job done and more. When they had finished they cleaned up that well, even took some of my own rubbish away for me. Well done lads! Not often you get a good, honest local roofer anymore! Thanks again."

Re-Roofing FAQs

Frequently Asked Questions About House Re-Roofing

Answers to common questions regarding pitched roof replacements, local building regulations, and our expert house re-roofing services across Ramsden, Bromley, and Croydon & South London.

How long does a full house re-roofing project take in Ramsden?

+

Most standard residential re-roofing projects take between five and ten working days. This depends on the size of your house and the weather. A simple 3-bed semi-detached home usually falls on the shorter end of that scale. We always aim to keep the disruption to your daily life as low as possible.

What are the best materials for new roof installations in Bromley?

+

It often depends on the age of your property. Many Bromley homes look best with traditional clay or concrete tiles from brands like Redland. However, natural slate is a fantastic choice for longevity and a premium appearance. For flat roofs on extensions, EPDM rubber and GRP fibreglass are the most durable modern options available today.

Do I need to move out while you install a new roof?

+

Not at all. We carry out all the work from the outside. While there will be some noise during the day from hammers and tile cutters, your home remains fully habitable. We keep the site tidy and make sure the structure is weather-tight at the end of every shift.

Is a drone roof survey worth it for a house purchase in Kent?

+

A drone survey is very useful for homebuyers. Traditional surveyors often look at the roof through binoculars from the ground. Our drones get close to the chimneys and valleys, spotting cracked tiles or failing mortar that a ground-level check would miss. It gives you a much stronger position when negotiating a house price.

Will Kevington Roofing help with the building regulations for a re-roof?

+

Yes. When you replace more than 25% of a roof, you generally need to inform Local Authority Building Control. This often involves upgrading the insulation to meet current thermal standards. We understand these rules and can guide you through the process to make sure your new roof is fully compliant.

How much do Ramsden roofers charge for a new roof?

+

Costs vary based on the materials you choose and the complexity of the roof shape. A flat roof repair or replacement is cheaper than a full pitched roof re-tile. We provide free, no-obligation quotes where we break down the costs of labour and materials clearly, so you can make an informed choice without any pressure.

How can I tell if my roof needs a repair or a full replacement?

+

If you only have one or two slipped tiles or a small leak around a chimney, a repair is usually enough. However, if the tiles are crumbling, the battens are rotting, or you have multiple leaks across the whole surface, a full re-roof is often more cost-effective in the long run. We give you an honest appraisal after a physical or drone inspection.
