Our Step-by-Step Pitched Roofing Process

Installing a new pitched roof requires precision, high-quality materials, and a deep understanding of structural integrity. Our comprehensive process ensures your roof performs flawlessly for decades.Initial Structural Assessment: We evaluate your existing timber framework to ensure it can support the load of modern materials, checking for rot, sagging, or water ingress.Stripping and Preparation: We carefully remove old slates, tiles, and degraded felt, exposing the rafters to ensure a clean slate for your new installation.High-Performance Membranes: We install industry-leading breathable membranes, such as Tyvek or Klober Permo Forte. This crucial layer prevents water penetration while allowing the roof space to breathe, significantly reducing condensation risks.Battening and Tiling: Using treated timber battens, we expertly lay your chosen finish—whether that is traditional slate roofing, clay tiles, or robust concrete tiles from trusted brands like Marley and Redland.Modern Dry-Fix Systems: To future-proof your home, we utilise dry-ridge and dry-verge systems. These mechanically fix the ridge and edge tiles, offering superior wind resistance compared to traditional mortar that inevitably cracks over time.

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.
