Our Complete Pitched Roof Installation Process

Replacing or installing a new pitched roof is a significant investment, which is why we prioritise transparency and precision at every stage. Here is how our expert Kent roofing contractors handle your domestic roofing project:Thorough Site Assessment: We begin with a comprehensive inspection to evaluate the structural integrity of your existing timber and identify any underlying issues, such as wood rot or water ingress.Safe Stripping and Preparation: We carefully remove the old tiles, slates, and perished underlay, ensuring your property remains protected and tidy throughout the process.Modern Breathable Membranes: We install high-performance Klober Permo Forte or Tyvek breathable membranes. This crucial step prevents condensation build-up and ensures your roof space remains well-ventilated and thermally efficient.Tiling and Slating: Using your choice of premium slate or concrete roof tiling, our team meticulously lays the new covering to exact manufacturer specifications.Dry-Ridge and Dry-Verge Systems: For maximum storm resistance and minimal roof maintenance, we secure the edges and apex using modern, mechanically fixed dry-systems rather than traditional mortar.If you are planning an extension or need a complete strip and re-tile, our process guarantees a structurally sound and visually stunning result.

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.
