Expert Felt Roof Repairs for Chatham Homes & Businesses

When you call Kevington Roofing for felt roof repairs in Chatham, you're getting a thorough, systematic approach. First, our experienced roofers will conduct a detailed assessment to pinpoint the exact source of the leak or damage. This often involves a careful inspection of the felt itself, the roofline including gutters, and any abutments or upstands. Once we understand the full picture, we’ll prepare the area, removing any debris or damaged sections. We then employ high-performance torch-on felt systems, expertly applying new layers to create a seamless, waterproof seal. This robust method ensures a durable repair that integrates perfectly with your existing felt, offering a long-lasting solution to keep your property dry and secure.

Our team handles a wide array of felt roofing issues for both residential and commercial properties throughout Kent. We regularly fix:

• Cracks and Splits: Caused by thermal expansion and contraction, these are common entry points for water. We’ll clean, dry, and expertly patch or re-layer the affected areas.
• Blistering: Air or moisture trapped under the felt can cause bubbles. We carefully cut, dry, and re-bond or overlay these areas.
• Ponding Water: If water isn’t draining effectively, it can put immense strain on the felt. While sometimes needing more extensive work, localised ponding can often be remedied with careful repair and re-profiling.
• Failed Seams: The joins between felt rolls are vulnerable. We re-torch or re-seal these to restore watertight integrity.
• Impact Damage: From falling branches to general wear, punctures or tears are swiftly and effectively repaired.
  No matter the specific challenge, our professional roofers have the experience and equipment to get your felt roof back to its best.

While we’re always here for urgent repairs, a bit of preventative care can go a long way in prolonging the life of your felt roof. Simple maintenance, like keeping your gutters clear of leaves and debris, can prevent water from backing up and pooling on the roof surface. Regularly checking for moss or algae growth and gently removing it can also help, as these can trap moisture and degrade the felt over time. If you’re unsure, a professional inspection every few years can catch small issues before they become major problems.
