Why Choose Kevington Roofing

Why Choose Us for Superfoil Insulation in Ramsden & Bromley?

Flat Roofing (GRP, EPDM, Felt)

Modern flat roofing is a world away from the problematic systems of the past. We expertly install three leading flat roof systems, each offering superb durability and watertight integrity:

  • GRP Fibreglass: This is a seamless, cold-applied system that cures to form an incredibly tough, waterproof layer. It's ideal for areas like walkways, balconies, and roofs with complex shapes. Many know it simply as a 'fibreglass roof'.
  • EPDM Rubber: This single-ply rubber membrane is renowned for its incredible flexibility, UV resistance, 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. These provide a robust, cost-effective, and completely waterproof barrier, expertly installed for maximum longevity and peace of mind.

Specialist Roofing (Lead, Zinc, Green Roofs)

For projects that demand exceptional craftsmanship and unique aesthetics, we offer specialist roofing services. Our traditional leadwork includes expert bossing and welding, perfect for heritage properties or intricate detailing. We also install sleek modern zinc and copper roofs, which deliver a stunning architectural finish and stand the test of time. For those seeking eco-friendly solutions, we design and install Green or 'Living' Roofs, which offer natural insulation, manage rainwater, and support local biodiversity.

Roof Repairs & Emergency Leak Fixes Across South East London

A small roof leak or a few slipped tiles can quickly spiral into a much larger, more expensive problem, leading to internal water damage, mould, and timber rot. Our roof repair service is prompt, efficient, and exceptionally thorough. We never just patch the symptoms; we identify the root cause of the problem – be it failed lead flashing, cracked or porous tiles, blocked valleys, or damage from a recent storm. We offer emergency call-outs across our service area to secure your property immediately and prevent further damage. Beyond urgent fixes, regular roof maintenance is key to its longevity. We provide services ranging from safe moss removal to comprehensive annual inspections, keeping your roof in prime condition for years to come.

Common Repairs We Handle:

  • Leak Detection & Repair: Drawing on our extensive experience, we accurately trace the point of water ingress and provide a lasting, reliable fix.
  • Tile & Slate Replacement: We expertly source matching tiles or slates to seamlessly replace any cracked, slipped, or missing ones, restoring your roof's integrity and appearance.
  • Chimney Repairs: We handle all aspects of chimney maintenance and repair, from re-pointing crumbling mortar joints and repairing brickwork to completely rebuilding an entire chimney stack and renewing crucial lead flashings.
  • Ridge & Verge Repairs: We re-bed loose ridge tiles using a durable, long-lasting mortar mix. For a low-maintenance, modern solution, we can also install advanced dry-ridge or dry-verge systems.
  • Flat Roof Repairs: We skillfully patch punctures or tears in EPDM or GRP membranes, and effectively seal splits in felt roofing to significantly extend its lifespan.
  • Moss Removal & Roof Cleaning: We safely remove unsightly and damaging moss, algae, and lichen. These growths can trap moisture, accelerate material degradation, and affect your roof's lifespan.

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.
