New Roof Installations: Building Foundations of Protection in Kent & South East London

Forget the old-fashioned, leaky flat roofs of yesteryear. Today's flat roofing systems are highly advanced, offering incredible durability and performance. We expertly install three leading flat roof technologies:

• GRP Fibreglass: This seamless, cold-applied system cures to form an incredibly tough, completely waterproof layer. It’s an ideal choice for roofs with complex shapes, balconies, or areas that might experience foot traffic, commonly known as a 'fibreglass roof'.
• EPDM Rubber: A single-ply rubber membrane renowned for its exceptional flexibility, UV resistance, and impressively long lifespan. EPDM is a fantastic, highly durable option for garages, home extensions, and dormer roofs.
• High-Performance Felt: We utilise modern, multi-layer torch-on felt systems. These provide a robust, cost-effective, and fully waterproof barrier, expertly installed by our team for maximum longevity and reliability.

For projects demanding exceptional craftsmanship and bespoke solutions, Kevington Roofing offers specialised services. Our traditional leadwork includes expert bossing and welding, ideal for heritage properties and intricate details. We also install modern zinc and copper roofs, which not only provide outstanding durability but also deliver a stunning, contemporary architectural finish. And for those keen on environmental benefits, we design and install Green, or 'Living' Roofs, which offer natural insulation, manage rainwater, and actively support local biodiversity.
