Pitched Roofing (Tiles & Slates): The Enduring Choice

Pitched roofs remain the classic and most popular choice for British homes, offering timeless appeal and excellent drainage. We are specialists in installing both traditional and contemporary pitched roof systems. Our expertise covers a wide array of materials, including highly durable concrete tiles from trusted manufacturers like Marley and Redland. For a premium, elegant finish, we expertly install natural slate, sourced from Welsh quarries or high-quality Spanish imports, as well as modern man-made composite slates. We pay meticulous attention to crucial details like verges, ridge lines, and valleys, creating a flawless and completely weatherproof roof that stands the test of time.

Why Choose Our Solid Roof Conservatory Installations in Ramsden, Bromley & South London?

Flat Roofing (GRP, EPDM, Felt): Modern Durability

Today's flat roofing systems are a significant improvement on older, leak-prone designs. At Kevington Roofing, we install three leading, high-performance systems known for their reliability and longevity:

  • GRP Fibreglass: This is a seamless, cold-applied system that cures into an incredibly tough, fully waterproof layer. It's a fantastic choice for walkways, balconies, and roofs with complex shapes. Many know it simply as a 'fibreglass roof'.
  • EPDM Rubber: An advanced single-ply rubber membrane, EPDM is celebrated for its remarkable flexibility and exceptionally long lifespan. It offers a superb, durable solution for garages, home extensions, and dormers.
  • High-Performance Felt: We use modern, multi-layer torch-on felt systems. These provide a robust and cost-effective waterproof barrier, expertly installed by our team for maximum durability.

Specialist Roofing (Lead, Zinc, Green Roofs): Bespoke Craftsmanship

For projects that demand exceptional craftsmanship and specialist materials, we offer bespoke roofing services. Our leadwork includes traditional bossing and welding techniques, perfect for heritage properties and detailed architectural features. We also install sleek, contemporary zinc and copper roofs, which provide a stunning, architectural finish and a modern aesthetic. For environmentally conscious homeowners, we design and install Green or 'Living' Roofs, which provide natural insulation, manage rainwater, and actively support local biodiversity.

FAQ

Solid Roof Conservatory FAQs

Answers to common questions about our solid roof conservatory installations, warm roof conversions, and how Kevington Roofing and Building LTD can transform your year-round living space in Croydon & South London.

How much does a solid roof conservatory conversion cost in Ramsden?

+

The cost of a solid roof conservatory depends on the size and shape of your existing structure. Generally, a warm roof conversion is a much more affordable alternative to building a traditional extension. Because we use lightweight roof tiles, we can often use your existing frames, which keeps costs down. For an accurate price, we provide free, no-obligation quotes where we measure up and discuss your material choices.

Can I use my conservatory year-round with a warm roof installation in Bromley?

+

Yes, that is the main reason homeowners in Bromley choose us. A standard glass or polycarbonate roof lets heat escape in the winter and turns the room into a greenhouse in the summer. By installing an insulated conservatory roofing system, we create a room that stays at a comfortable temperature all year round. It turns a seasonal room into a permanent living space that feels just like a normal part of your house.

What are the benefits of lightweight roof tiles for conservatory roofs?

+

Lightweight tiles are designed specifically for conservatory replacements. They give you the look of a traditional slate or tiled roof but without the heavy weight that would stress your conservatory frames. These tiles are incredibly durable, weather-resistant, and come in various colours to match your main house roof. They also help significantly with noise reduction, so you won't hear the drumming of rain like you do on a plastic roof.

Do I need planning permission for a conservatory insulation project in Kent?

+

In most cases, replacing a conservatory roof falls under 'permitted development,' meaning you don't need full planning permission. However, building regulations are important to make sure the structure is safe and thermally efficient. We handle the technical side and can advise you on the current local rules in Kent and Bromley to make sure everything is legal and above board.

How long does a warm roof conversion take to finish?

+

We aim to get most conservatory roof replacements finished within a few days. We work quickly to make the structure watertight, usually on the first day. After the external lightweight tiles are on, we move inside to finish the insulation and internal ceiling. Our goal is to give you a brand-new living space with as little disruption to your daily life as possible.
