How We Install and Repair Pitched Roofs

A durable, weather-resistant roof relies on high-quality materials and a proven installation process. We handle every stage of your roofing project with precision, explaining the technical details in simple, straightforward language so you always know exactly what you are paying for.Comprehensive Inspections: We often begin with a drone roof survey to safely assess the condition of your existing tiles, roof timbers, and leadwork without the immediate need for scaffolding.Structural Timber Repairs: If we find signs of water ingress or sagging, we carry out essential roof timber repairs to ensure the framework is fully secure and capable of supporting the weight of a new covering.Breathable Membranes: We install industry-leading breathable membranes, such as Tyvek or Klober Permo Forte. These materials allow water vapour to escape from your loft space while preventing rain from entering, drastically reducing the risk of damp and condensation.Premium Tiling and Slating: We supply and fit high-quality concrete tiles, clay tiles, and natural slate from trusted manufacturers like Marley and Redland, matching the aesthetic of your property perfectly.Modern Securing Methods: We finish the roof using dry-ridge and dry-verge systems. Unlike traditional sand and cement mortar, which cracks over time, these mechanically fixed systems offer superior wind resistance and require virtually no maintenance.If you are experiencing a leak and need emergency roof repair in Reigate, call us immediately on 01689 663319 to prevent further internal damage.

Common Questions About Pitched Roofing

How long does a new pitched roof installation take?For a standard semi-detached house, a complete re-roofing service typically takes between 3 to 5 days, depending on the weather conditions and the complexity of the roof structure.Do you provide emergency roof repairs?Yes, we offer fast-response emergency roof repairs to secure your property against active leaks, storm damage, and missing tiles, helping to prevent costly internal water damage.What is the difference between dry-ridge and traditional mortar?Traditional mortar is a wet sand and cement mix used to secure ridge tiles, which inevitably degrades, cracks, and falls out over time due to weather exposure.

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.
