Replacing an old, tired roof isn't just about fixing leaks; it's an opportunity to transform your property. A new pitched roof provides superior protection against the elements, significantly boosts your home's thermal insulation, and instantly enhances its market value and aesthetic appeal. Whether your existing roof is nearing the end of its lifespan, has suffered extensive storm damage, or you're planning a new build or extension, our expert team in Basildon guides you through every step.

Why Choose Us for Your Pitched Roof Installation in Bromley?

Our Comprehensive Pitched Roofing Process

Installing a new pitched roof demands precision, expertise, and a meticulous approach. Our process starts with a thorough, no-obligation consultation at your Basildon property. We carefully assess your existing structure, discuss your specific needs, and help you choose the ideal materials to match your home’s style and your budget. Our dedicated team manages the entire project: from the safe removal and responsible disposal of your old roof covering, to the installation of modern, breathable membranes, robust treated timber battens, and your chosen roof tiles or slates. We prioritise minimal disruption and a clean, safe working environment throughout the installation.

Choosing the Right Materials for Your Basildon Property

The choice of roofing material significantly impacts both the performance and appearance of your pitched roof. We work with a wide array of premium materials from leading manufacturers, ensuring durability and a perfect match for any property style in Basildon.

  • Concrete Tiles: A popular, cost-effective, and highly durable choice, available in a variety of colours and profiles from trusted brands like Marley and Redland. They offer excellent weather resistance and a long lifespan.
  • Natural Slate: For an elegant, timeless look, natural slate (including Welsh and Spanish) provides exceptional longevity and a unique aesthetic. Each slate is naturally formed, giving a sophisticated finish.
  • Man-Made/Fibre Cement Slates: These offer the classic slate appearance with added uniformity and often a more economical price point, without compromising on performance or durability.
    We'll help you understand the benefits of each, making sure your choice meets your expectations for both function and beauty.

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."

Pitched Roof FAQs

Frequently Asked Questions About Pitched Roof Installations

Answers to common questions regarding our new pitched roofs, slate roofing, and tiled roof replacements in Ramsden, Bromley, and across Croydon & South London.

What is the average cost of a new pitched roof in Kent?

+

The price of a new roof depends on the size of your house and the materials you choose. A small terraced house using concrete tiles will cost less than a large detached home using natural slate. We provide free, no-obligation quotes so you know the exact cost for your specific property in Ramsden or the surrounding areas.

How do I know if I need a full new roof or just a repair?

+

If your roof is over 60 years old and you are constantly seeing leaks or slipped tiles, a replacement is often more cost-effective in the long run. If the damage is limited to one area, a repair is usually enough. We can carry out a drone survey to give you an honest assessment of what is required.

How long does it take to install a new roof?

+

Most residential pitched roof installations take between 5 and 10 working days, depending on the weather and the size of the building. We work efficiently to make sure your home is watertight as quickly as possible.

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

+

Usually, you don't need planning permission to replace a roof, provided the appearance is similar to the original. However, if you live in a conservation area or a listed building, different rules apply. We can advise you on this during our initial visit.

What are the benefits of slate roofing vs tiled roofs?

+

Slate is incredibly durable and can last over a hundred years, offering a beautiful, natural look. Concrete or clay tiles are more common and come in a wider variety of colours and shapes, often making them a more budget-friendly option for modern homes in Ramsden.
