Signs It Is Time for a Roof Replacement

Frequent patch repairs often end up costing more in the long run than a complete roof replacement. But how do you know when it is time to upgrade? Look out for these tell-tale signs of roof failure:Extensive Water Ingress: Persistent damp patches on your upstairs ceilings or visible daylight shining through your loft timbers.Structural Sagging: A dipping roofline is a clear indicator of structural failure, overloaded joists, or severe timber rot.Failing Materials: Cracked, missing, or heavily moss-covered tiles that have simply outlived their natural lifespan.Poor Thermal Efficiency: Older roofs often lack modern breathable membranes and adequate insulation, leading to significantly higher winter heating bills.If you have noticed any of these issues, call our emergency repair and inspection team on 01689 663319 to arrange a full structural assessment.

Why Choose Kevington Roofing for Your New Roof Installation?

Our Step-by-Step Roof Replacement Process

Replacing a roof might seem daunting to a homeowner, but our highly skilled, directly employed team ensures a seamless, stress-free process from start to finish. Here is how we manage your new roof installation in Horley:Initial Survey: We begin with a thorough inspection, often utilising our drone roof surveys to safely and accurately assess the condition of your existing structure.Stripping and Timber Checks: We carefully remove old slates, tiles, and felt, inspecting the underlying timber joists and boards for any signs of rot or water damage.Modern Underlay: We install high-performance breathable membranes, such as Tyvek or Klober Permo Forte, to prevent condensation and improve essential airflow.Battening and Tiling: Using treated timber battens, we expertly lay your chosen finish, whether that is traditional clay, modern concrete, or a bespoke slate roof installation in Horley.The Finishing Touches: We complete the build with highly durable dry-ridge and dry-verge systems, ensuring maximum wind resistance and zero need for future mortar maintenance.

Choosing Between Pitched and Flat Roofing Options

Every property is unique, which is why we offer a comprehensive range of reliable roofing services tailored to your specific needs and budget. For pitched roofers in Reigate and Banstead, the choice often comes down to the aesthetic appeal and longevity of the materials. We regularly work with premium Marley and Redland tiles, as well as natural Welsh and Spanish slates which offer unparalleled durability and classic charm.If you require flat roofing in Horley for an extension, garage, or dormer, we specialise in advanced, modern systems. Gone are the days of leaky traditional felt. We install highly durable GRP flat roofs (fibreglass) and EPDM rubber roofing. Both options provide a seamless, watertight barrier that can expand and contract with seasonal temperature changes, offering an incredibly long lifespan with minimal maintenance required.

Navigating Surrey Building Regulations

Undertaking a major home improvement project means navigating local authority rules. As your local experts, we handle the red tape so you do not have to. When replacing more than 25% of your roof area, you must comply with UK Building Regulations, specifically Part L which governs thermal efficiency. We ensure all new roof installations in Horley meet or exceed these strict insulation standards.If your property is situated within a local conservation area in Surrey, there may be specific restrictions on the types of materials you can use. Our extensive experience working with local planning requirements ensures your new clay tiles or slate roof installation remains fully compliant, preserving the historic character of your home while delivering modern thermal performance.

"Highly recommended! Great price! First class job. Nothing was too much for these lads, very polite, got the job done and more.

Expert Roofing Advice

New Roof Installation FAQs

Considering a roof replacement? Here are answers to the most common questions we receive regarding our new pitched and flat roof installations for homeowners across Swanley, Sevenoaks, and Croydon & South London.

How much does a new roof installation cost in Swanley?

+

The cost depends on the size of your property and the materials you choose. A small terraced house using concrete tiles will cost less than a large detached home requiring natural slate. We provide free, detailed quotes that break down every cost, so you can make an informed decision based on your budget.

How long will it take to replace my roof?

+

Most domestic re-roofing projects take between one and two weeks, depending on the weather and the complexity of the roof shape. We work efficiently to make sure your home is "dried in" as quickly as possible to prevent any internal disruption.

Do I need planning permission for a new roof in Kent?

+

Generally, you do not need planning permission for a simple re-roofing project, provided the height of the roof does not change significantly. However, if you live in a conservation area or a listed building in places like Eynsford or Shoreham, special rules may apply. We can advise you on these requirements during our initial site visit.

Should I choose a pitched roof or a flat roof for my extension?

+

This usually comes down to your budget and the style of your house. Pitched roofs are incredibly durable and offer a classic look, while modern flat roofs using GRP (fibreglass) or EPDM (rubber) are excellent, cost-effective options for extensions and garages. We can talk you through the pros and cons of each during your consultation.
