Our Pitched Roofing Process from Survey to Completion

We believe in complete transparency, which is why our pitched roofing process is designed to keep you informed at every stage. From the initial inspection to the final tile being laid, here is how our directly employed Stanford-Le-Hope roofers handle your project:Thorough Roof Survey: We begin with a detailed assessment of your existing roof. For hard-to-reach areas, we utilise advanced drone roof surveys to safely inspect for structural damage, slipped slates, or deteriorated leadwork.Itemised Quotation: You receive a transparent, fully itemised quote with no hidden fees or obligation to proceed.Safe Stripping and Preparation: We carefully remove old materials, inspecting the timber rafters for rot or damage. We then install modern breathable membranes to significantly enhance your roof's thermal efficiency and airflow.Expert Installation: Using premium materials from trusted brands like Marley and Redland, we install your chosen slate, clay, or concrete tiles. We highly recommend modern dry-ridge and dry-verge systems, which use mechanical fixings rather than traditional mortar, ensuring maximum resilience against high winds.Site Cleanup and Handover: We leave your property immaculate, responsibly disposing of all waste before completing a final quality handover.

Why Trust Kevington Roofing for Your Pitched Roof in Swanley & Kent?

Why Invest in a High-Quality Pitched Roof?

A professionally installed pitched roof is one of the most valuable investments you can make for your property in Thurrock. Beyond simply keeping the rain out, a new roof installation offers several long-term advantages:Unmatched Longevity: Quality materials like natural slate or robust concrete tiles, when installed correctly, can easily protect your home for decades.Improved Thermal Efficiency: Modern roofing systems, combined with high-grade breathable membranes, lock heat inside your home during winter and allow moisture to escape, helping to lower your energy bills.Enhanced Kerb Appeal: A sagging or moss-covered roof drastically reduces your home's aesthetic value. Fresh clay tiles or crisp slate roofing instantly revitalises the exterior of your property.Weather Resilience: Upgrading to a mechanically fixed dry verge and dry ridge system removes the risk of mortar cracking over time, offering superior protection against autumn gales and heavy rainfall.

Frequently Asked Questions About Pitched Roofs

How much does a new pitched roof cost?The cost of a new roof installation varies depending on the size of your property, the complexity of the scaffolding required, and your chosen materials (such as slate roofing versus concrete tiles). We provide free, transparent, and itemised quotes so you know exactly what to expect.Are concrete tiles better than slate?Both offer excellent protection. Slate provides a highly desirable, traditional finish with incredible longevity, making it ideal for period properties. Concrete tiles are generally more cost-effective, highly durable, and available in a wide variety of profiles and colours, suiting modern homes perfectly.What is a dry-ridge system?A dry-ridge system uses mechanical fixings to secure ridge tiles to the roof, rather than traditional sand and cement mortar. This modern method is highly recommended as it is completely weatherproof, flexes naturally with the building, and will not crack or blow off during severe storms.

"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."

"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.
