Our Pitched Roof Installation Process

We believe in getting the job done right the first time. Our thorough process begins with a detailed structural assessment, often utilising advanced drone roof surveys to safely inspect hard-to-reach areas and assess the condition of your timber battens. Once we understand your roof's exact requirements, our team carefully strips back the old materials. We then install industry-leading breathable membranes, such as Tyvek, to ensure proper roof space ventilation and prevent damp condensation. Next, we expertly lay your chosen Marley concrete tiles or natural slate. Finally, we finish the roofline with modern dry-ridge and dry-verge systems. These mechanically fixed systems are highly secure, completely weather-resistant, and entirely maintenance-free, offering a vastly superior alternative to traditional mortar bedding.

Frequently Asked Questions About Pitched Roofing

How long does a new pitched roof installation take?For an average-sized semi-detached house in Essex, a complete reroof typically takes between 3 to 5 days. This can vary slightly depending on the weather conditions and the complexity of your roof's structure.What is a dry-ridge system?A dry-ridge system mechanically fixes the ridge tiles to the top of the roof using screws and clamps rather than traditional mortar. It is a modern building regulation requirement for new roofs because it is much more secure, allows for better roof ventilation, and completely prevents tiles from blowing off in high winds.Do I need planning permission for a new roof in Loughton?In most cases, replacing an existing roof falls under permitted development. However, if you live in a conservation area in Epping Forest or are significantly altering the roof's height or shape, permission may be required. We will advise you on this during your initial free consultation.Can you fix sudden roof leaks?Yes, we provide fast-response emergency call-outs across the local area to stop water ingress, repair damaged underlay, and prevent further internal damage to your ceilings and walls.

"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 Roofing FAQs

Frequently Asked Questions About Pitched Roofs

Got questions about slate, tiled, or new pitched roof installations? Find answers from Kevington Roofing and Building LTD below, covering our expert roofing services across Swanley, Sevenoaks, and Croydon & South London.

How much does a new pitched roof cost in Kent?

There is no "one size fits all" price because every house is different. Factors include the size of the roof, the pitch (steepness), and the materials you choose. For example, natural slate is more expensive than concrete tiles but lasts much longer. We provide free, detailed quotes that break down every cost so you can make an informed decision.

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

In most cases, you don't need planning permission to replace an existing roof or perform repairs, provided the height isn't significantly increased. However, if you live in a conservation area or a listed building, different rules apply. We can advise you on the local Dartford or Sevenoaks council requirements during our initial visit.

How long does it take to replace a tiled roof?

A standard semi-detached house in Swanley usually takes between 5 to 9 working days, depending on the weather. We work efficiently to make sure your home isn't open to the elements for any longer than necessary, and we always leave the site tidy at the end of every day.

Should I choose slate or concrete tiles?

Slate offers a beautiful, traditional look and can last over 100 years, making it great for older properties. Concrete tiles, like those made by Marley, are very durable, come in various colours, and are generally more budget-friendly. We can show you samples of both to help you decide what fits your home’s style.
