Why a New Pitched Roof is a Smart Investment for Your Chatham Home

Pitched roofs are the classic choice for British properties, and for good reason. They're designed to effectively shed rainwater, are incredibly durable, and offer excellent loft space for insulation and storage. Over time, however, even the best roofs can show signs of age – widespread tile damage, persistent leaks, or simply looking worn out. A complete new roof or re-roofing by Kevington Roofing and Building LTD not only solves these problems but also adds significant value, provides superior weather protection, and can even lower your energy bills thanks to modern insulation practices.

Why Choose Us for Your Pitched Roof Installation in Bromley?

Tailored Pitched Roofing Solutions: Tiles, Slates & More

We believe in offering you the best choice for your home’s style and your budget. Our expertise covers a wide array of pitched roofing materials, each with its unique benefits:

  • Concrete & Clay Tiles: These are a very popular choice for their durability and versatility. We work with leading brands like Marley and Redland to provide robust, long-lasting tiles available in various colours and profiles, from modern flat designs to traditional pantiles, ensuring your new roof perfectly complements your property.
  • Natural & Man-Made Slates: For a premium, timeless aesthetic, slates are an excellent option. We install beautiful natural slates, including robust Welsh and elegant Spanish varieties, known for their incredible lifespan. For a more uniform look or specific budget, high-quality man-made composite slates offer a fantastic alternative without compromising on performance.

Our Meticulous New Roof Installation Process

When you choose Kevington Roofing and Building LTD for your new pitched roof in Chatham, you’re choosing a thorough, professional service from start to finish. Our process begins with a detailed, no-obligation consultation to understand your needs and assess your property. We then carefully strip away the old roof covering, safely disposing of all waste. We always inspect and prepare the roof structure, install modern, highly breathable membranes (such as Tyvek or Klober Permo Forte) for enhanced ventilation and moisture control, and fit new treated timber battens. Finally, we expertly install your chosen tiles or slates, paying meticulous attention to every detail, including precise verges, strong ridge lines, and robust valleys, to ensure a flawless, weatherproof finish that will stand the test of time.

Quality Materials & Craftsmanship You Can Trust

At Kevington Roofing and Building LTD, we never compromise on quality. We source our roofing materials from reputable, industry-leading suppliers, ensuring every component, from the smallest nail to the largest tile, meets the highest standards. Our directly employed team of skilled roofers are trained to the highest level, bringing 25 years of combined practical experience to every project. This commitment to superior materials and expert craftsmanship means your new pitched roof is built to last, giving you complete peace of mind for decades to come.

Beyond the Roof: Comprehensive Service for Your Home

While new pitched roof installations are our speciality in Chatham, our comprehensive understanding of roof structures means we also handle related essential elements. This includes expert leadwork for intricate details around chimneys or dormers, which requires traditional skills and precision. We also offer full roofline replacement – that’s your fascias, soffits, and guttering – to ensure your roof’s entire drainage system is robust, well-ventilated, and perfectly complements your new roof.

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.
