Our Thorough Re-Roofing Process: From Initial Survey to Flawless Finish

Embarking on a re-roofing project can seem daunting, but we make the process clear and straightforward. It all starts with a detailed, no-obligation consultation at your Swanley property. Our expert team will carry out a comprehensive assessment of your existing roof structure. We then provide a clear, itemised quotation detailing all labour and material costs. Once you're happy, we carefully remove the old roof covering, inspect the timber structure beneath, and then install modern, breathable membranes and treated timber battens. Finally, your chosen tiles or slates are expertly laid, ensuring every detail, from the verges to the ridge lines, is perfectly finished for a weatherproof and beautiful result. We manage the whole job from start to finish, so you have complete peace of mind.

Pitched Roof Re-Roofs: Durable Tiles & Classic Slates for Your Home

The classic pitched roof remains a popular and reliable choice for homes across Swanley. We are specialists in installing and replacing both traditional and contemporary pitched roof systems. Our team works with a wide selection of high-quality materials, including robust concrete tiles from leading brands like Marley and Redland, known for their durability and range of colours. For a premium, timeless look, we also install natural slate (such as Welsh or Spanish slate) or high-performance man-made composite slates. Our skilled roofers pay close attention to every element, including valleys, hips, and flashing, guaranteeing a watertight and aesthetically pleasing roof that stands the test of time.

Modern Flat Roof Re-Roofing Systems for Extensions, Garages & More

Gone are the days of problematic flat roofs. Modern flat roofing materials offer incredible durability and performance, making them an excellent choice for extensions, garages, dormers, and outbuildings in Swanley. We expertly install three leading flat roofing systems:

  • GRP Fibreglass: This seamless, cold-applied system cures to a tough, completely waterproof layer. It's often called a 'fibreglass roof' and is perfect for complex shapes or even areas designed for foot traffic.
  • EPDM Rubber: A flexible, single-ply rubber membrane renowned for its exceptionally long lifespan and resistance to extreme weather. It’s a fantastic, durable choice for most flat roof applications.
  • High-Performance Felt: Using multi-layer torch-on felt systems, we provide a robust and cost-effective waterproof barrier, meticulously installed for maximum longevity.

Beyond the Roof: Integrated Fascia, Soffit & Guttering Solutions

When you replace your roof, it's often the perfect time to upgrade your roofline components too. Your fascias, soffits, and guttering are vital for protecting your property from water ingress and allowing proper ventilation for your roof space. We specialise in the full replacement of old, tired timber with high-quality, low-maintenance UPVC systems. Unlike just 'capping' over old wood, our approach involves removing all rotten timber, checking the rafter ends for soundness, and then installing a completely new, weatherproof system. This guarantees a lasting solution that won’t need painting and will look pristine for years. We also expertly install, repair, and clean all types of guttering to ensure rainwater is efficiently collected and diverted away from your home’s foundations.

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.
