Why Choose Us for Superfoil Insulation in Ramsden & Bromley?

Flat Roofing (GRP, EPDM, Felt)

Modern flat roofing systems are a world apart from the troublesome, leaky designs of yesteryear. At Kevington Roofing, we expertly install three leading flat roof solutions, each chosen for its proven performance and longevity:

  • GRP Fibreglass: This is a seamless, cold-applied system that, once cured, forms an incredibly tough, completely waterproof layer. It's an excellent choice for walkways, balconies, and roofs with intricate or complex shapes. You might also know it as a ‘fibreglass roof’.
  • EPDM Rubber: This single-ply rubber membrane is celebrated for its amazing flexibility, resilience, and exceptionally long lifespan. It offers a fantastic, durable solution for garages, extensions, and dormers.
  • High-Performance Felt: We use modern, multi-layer torch-on felt systems. When expertly installed, these provide a robust, cost-effective, and highly reliable waterproof barrier designed for maximum longevity.

Specialist Roofing (Lead, Zinc, Green Roofs)

For those unique projects demanding exceptional craftsmanship and a bespoke touch, we offer specialist roofing services. Our leadwork encompasses traditional bossing and welding techniques, perfect for restoring heritage properties or creating intricate architectural details. We also install stunning modern zinc and copper roofs, which not only provide outstanding durability but also deliver a truly striking architectural finish. For the environmentally conscious, we design and install beautiful Green or 'Living' Roofs – these offer superb natural insulation and actively support local biodiversity, transforming your roof into a vibrant ecosystem.

Thermal Efficiency FAQs

Superfoil Insulation Questions

Answers to common questions about improving your home's thermal performance and lowering U-values with professional Superfoil insulation installations by Kevington Roofing and Building LTD across Ramsden, Bromley, and Croydon & South London.

Why Use a Drone for Your Roof Survey?

+

It is safer because no one has to climb a ladder for the initial look.
It is cheaper than traditional methods.
The high-definition photos show tiny cracks and mortar failures that you cannot see from the ground.
It provides solid proof for mortgage negotiations or insurance companies.

What is Superfoil insulation and how does it help my home?

+

Superfoil is a high-performance multifoil insulation. It is made of layers of reflective foil and insulating foam or wadding. Unlike thick, itchy glass wool, it is very thin but incredibly effective. It works as a radiant barrier, reflecting heat back into your rooms during the winter and keeping the sun’s heat out during the summer. For homeowners in Ramsden and Bromley, this means a much more comfortable home and lower energy bills.

How does multifoil insulation improve energy efficiency?

+

Traditional insulation only slows down heat loss through conduction. Superfoil goes a step further by tackling radiant heat. It helps your home reach the required U-values (the measurement of heat loss) without taking up all your loft space. Because it is reflective, it stops heat from escaping through the roof, which is where most homes lose their warmth.

Can Superfoil be used in older houses in Bromley?

+

Yes, it is actually one of the best choices for older properties. Many homes in Kent have limited space in the rafters. Because Superfoil is thin, we can install it without having to raise the roof height or lose valuable room in a loft conversion. It provides a modern thermal performance boost to traditional buildings.

Is Superfoil insulation moisture-resistant?

+

One of the biggest benefits is that Superfoil acts as a vapour control layer. This stops damp air from inside your house from reaching the cold roof timbers, which reduces the risk of condensation and rot. When we install it, we create a sealed system that protects the structure of your roof while keeping you warm.

Why should I choose a specialist for roof insulation in Ramsden?

+

To get the best results, Superfoil needs to be installed with the correct air gaps. If it is just squashed in, it won’t work properly. As roofing specialists, we understand how air moves through a building. We make sure the insulation is fitted perfectly to hit the target U-values and keep your energy efficiency as high as possible.
