Even a small leak or a few slipped tiles can quickly escalate into a major headache, causing internal water damage, rot, and costly structural issues. Our roof repair service is designed to be fast, efficient, and thorough. We don't just patch the problem; we get to the root cause, whether it's failed flashing, cracked tiles, blocked valleys, or storm damage. We offer emergency call-outs across our service area to secure your property immediately and prevent further issues. Beyond repairs, regular roof maintenance is key to prolonging your roof's life; we offer services from safe moss removal to annual inspections to keep your roof in peak condition.
Common roof problems we expertly resolve include:

• Leak Detection & Repair: Our experience allows us to quickly trace water ingress and provide a lasting fix.
• Tile & Slate Replacement: We source matching tiles or slates to seamlessly replace any cracked, slipped, or missing ones.
• Chimney Repairs: From re-pointing crumbling mortar joints to rebuilding entire chimney stacks and renewing lead flashings, we handle all aspects of chimney maintenance.
• Ridge & Verge Repairs: We re-bed loose ridge tiles using durable mortar and can install modern dry-ridge or dry-verge systems for a low-maintenance, secure solution.
• Flat Roof Repairs: We can expertly patch punctures in EPDM or GRP, or seal splits in felt roofing to extend its lifespan.
• Moss Removal & Roof Cleaning: Safely removing moss, algae, and lichen helps prevent moisture retention and long-term damage to your roof surface.

Understand your roof's exact condition without the expense and disruption of scaffolding. Our detailed drone roof survey service uses high-resolution cameras to capture comprehensive images and videos of your entire roof structure. This includes difficult-to-reach areas like chimney stacks, valleys, and high-level flat roofs that are often missed with traditional ground-level inspections. This service is ideal for pre-purchase homebuyer reports, insurance assessments, or simply diagnosing a persistent issue that's proving hard to locate. You'll receive a full, easy-to-understand report complete with annotated images, giving you a clear picture of any defects or areas needing attention.
The benefits of choosing a drone survey from Kevington Roofing and Building LTD are clear:

• Safety: No need for ladders or costly scaffolding for initial inspections.
• Cost-Effective: Often faster and more affordable than traditional manual survey methods.
• Accuracy: High-definition imagery reveals even minor issues like hairline cracks or failed mortar, invisible from the ground.
• Documentation: Provides indisputable visual evidence for insurance claims or property negotiations.

Your roofline – the fascias, soffits, and guttering – forms a crucial protective barrier between your roof and your walls. It’s vital for directing rainwater away from your property and ensuring proper ventilation for your roof space. We specialise in the full replacement of old, rotting timber roofline components with high-quality, low-maintenance UPVC systems. Crucially, we perform a full replacement, not just 'capping' over old timber. This means we remove all the rotten wood, inspect the rafter ends for soundness, and install a completely new, weatherproof system that will last for years without needing to be painted. We also expertly install, repair, and clean all types of guttering to ensure rainwater is managed effectively, preventing damp and foundation issues.
To clarify the terms:

• Fascia: The long board running along the lower edge of your roof, directly supporting your gutters.
• Soffit: The board visible from below, often containing ventilation slots to allow air circulation in your loft.
• Bargeboard: The board used on the gable end of a house, providing protection and a neat finish.
• Guttering: The channel that collects rainwater from your roof, directing it safely away.
