Our Step-by-Step Pitched Roofing Process

We believe in complete transparency, which is why our roofing process is designed to keep you informed at every stage. It begins with a thorough structural assessment of your existing roof to identify underlying issues, from rotten battens to failing felt. We then provide a clear, itemised quote so you know exactly what is required to restore or replace your roof, with no hidden surprises.Once work commences, our priority is securing the structural integrity of your roof space. We handle all necessary roof timber repairs before installing modern, highly efficient breathable membranes, such as Tyvek or Klober Permo Forte. These advanced materials allow trapped moisture to escape while blocking external water ingress, significantly improving the thermal efficiency of your loft.Finally, we expertly install your chosen covering, utilising high-quality options like Marley tiles, Redland tiles, or natural slate. To guarantee maximum longevity, we frequently recommend upgrading to modern dry-ridge and dry-verge systems, which secure tiles mechanically rather than relying on traditional mortar that can degrade over time.

How much does a new pitched roof cost in Redhill?

How long does a new pitched roof last?The lifespan of a pitched roof depends heavily on the materials used. High-quality concrete tiles and clay tiles typically last between 40 and 60 years, while a premium natural slate roof can last upwards of a century if well-maintained. Regular roof maintenance and prompt attention to minor repairs will help maximise the life of your installation.What is the difference between dry-ridge and traditional mortar?Traditional roofs use mortar to secure ridge tiles, which eventually cracks and degrades due to weather exposure. A dry-ridge system mechanically fixes the tiles to the roof using screws and waterproof unions. This modern method is far more secure, weather-resistant, and requires practically zero maintenance, making it the standard choice for new roof installations.Do I need planning permission to replace my roof?In most cases, a straightforward roof replacement falls under permitted development and does not require planning permission. However, if you are altering the height or shape of the roof, or if you live in a conservation area within Reigate and Banstead, permission may be required. We can advise you on the specific regulations affecting your property during your initial roof survey.

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.
