A Roof That's Actually Been Looked At Properly

Most roofing problems we're called out to see started small and got worse because nobody looked at the whole roof, only the leak.

We work on pitched tile and slate roofs, flat roofs, and the roof structures that form part of our extension and loft conversion projects — so roofing isn't a separate trade bolted onto our building work, it's something the same team already does as standard.

For older Kent properties, especially the Victorian and inter-war housing common across Thanet, roofs are often coming to the end of their working life at the same time as other structural issues become apparent. We'll always tell you honestly whether a repair will genuinely solve the problem or whether you're better off replacing the covering before it fails completely.

Flat roofs get particular attention, since a poorly specified flat roof is one of the most common sources of long-term water ingress. We use modern felt, GRP (fibreglass) or single-ply systems rather than relying on outdated built-up felt specifications.

Roofing, Done Properly

🏚️

Re-Roofing

Full replacement of the roof covering where repairs are no longer worthwhile — tiles, slate or a flat roof system, on the existing or upgraded structure.

  • Tile and slate re-roofing
  • Flat roof replacement (felt, GRP or single-ply)
  • Insulation upgrades where the roof structure allows
🔧

Repairs

Slipped or cracked tiles, damaged flashing, and localised flat roof repairs, carried out properly rather than as a temporary patch.

  • Storm damage repairs
  • Flashing and valley repairs
  • Flat roof leak diagnosis and repair
🌧️

Guttering & Fascias

A roof is only as good as the water management around its edges — guttering, fascias and soffits are usually replaced alongside re-roofing work, or on their own.

  • Gutter replacement and realignment
  • Fascia and soffit replacement
  • uPVC and timber options
🏗️

New Roof Structures

Roofing work on our own extensions and loft conversions — new roof structures, dormers and rooflight upstands — built by the same team, not a separate subcontractor.

  • New roof structures for extensions
  • Dormer and rooflight upstands
  • Matched to the existing roof covering

Our Process

Roof Inspection

We inspect the whole roof, not just the reported problem area, and tell you honestly whether it needs a repair or a full replacement.

Quote

A clear, itemised quote for the work actually needed — we won’t recommend a full re-roof if a repair will genuinely do the job.

Work Carried Out

Scaffolding (where needed), removal of the old covering, and installation of the new roof, flashing and guttering.

Final Check

We check the finished roof and guttering in wet conditions where possible, not just visually from the ground.

Frequently Asked Questions

How do I know if I need a full re-roof or just a repair?

It depends on the age and condition of the roof structure and covering, not just where the current leak is. If a roof covering is towards the end of its typical lifespan, a repair often just delays a larger job — we’ll tell you honestly which situation you’re in.

How long does a flat roof last?

It depends heavily on the material and how well it was installed originally. Older built-up felt roofs often need replacing after 15–20 years; modern GRP and single-ply systems can last considerably longer if installed correctly.

Do you offer a guarantee on roofing work?

Yes — the specifics depend on the material and scope of work, and we’ll confirm what’s covered in writing as part of your quote.

Can you match new roofing to my existing tiles?

In most cases yes, particularly for partial re-roofs and extension roofs. Where an exact match isn’t available, we’ll discuss the closest options with you before ordering anything.
