How We Install Your New Roof

Replacing a roof is a significant investment, which is why we follow a meticulous, step-by-step process to guarantee long-lasting results. We start with a comprehensive structural assessment, often utilising our advanced drone roof surveys to safely inspect hard-to-reach areas and identify the full extent of any underlying damage.Once the project begins, our direct employees carefully strip away the old materials and safely dispose of the debris. We then inspect the exposed roof timbers, repairing or replacing any compromised woodwork to ensure a solid foundation. Next, we install high-quality breathable membranes, such as Tyvek or Klober Permo Forte, to provide maximum ventilation and prevent future condensation issues.After the membrane and treated battens are secured, we lay your chosen roof covering, whether that involves premium Marley concrete tiles, traditional Redland slate, or a modern EPDM rubber system. Finally, we finish the installation with highly secure dry-ridge and dry-verge systems, alongside any necessary roofline upgrades, ensuring your new roof is completely weather-proof and maintenance-free.

We ensure that every new roof we install meets the latest Part L thermal efficiency standards.Maidstone and the surrounding Kent villages feature several conservation areas.

Comparing Pitched and Flat Roofing Options

Selecting the right material is vital for the longevity and appearance of your new roof. For traditional pitched roofs, natural slate offers an incredibly long lifespan and a classic, elegant look perfectly suited to older properties. Alternatively, concrete and clay tiles from trusted brands like Marley provide fantastic durability and come in a wide variety of colours and profiles to suit 1930s semis and modern detached homes alike.If you are extending your property or replacing a garage roof, we offer industry-leading flat roofing solutions. GRP fibreglass roofing provides a seamless, highly resilient surface that easily handles foot traffic and extreme weather. EPDM rubber roofs are another superb choice, offering incredible flexibility that prevents the cracking and blistering commonly associated with outdated traditional felt roofs.Unsure which material best suits your needs and budget? Our experienced surveyors are always happy to explain the differences and help you make an informed, pressure-free decision.

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.
