Professional Tiled and Slate Roof Installations

We specialise in stripping back failing materials and installing high-grade replacements tailored to the local vernacular. Our expertise covers handmade Kent peg tiles for period properties, natural slates, and modern concrete interlocking systems that offer excellent weather resistance. Levi King personally manages every stage of the project, from inspecting your existing timber rafters to ensuring the correct installation of breathable underlays and precision lead flashings.

Thermal Efficiency and Building Regulations Compliance

Every roof replacement project we undertake in Swanley adheres strictly to Part L of the Building Regulations. When replacing more than 50% of your roof covering, it is essential to ensure that your home is properly insulated and ventilated to current standards. We guide you through these technical requirements, ensuring your new roof not only looks professional but also improves the thermal efficiency and overall comfort of your home.

Frequently Asked Questions About Roof Replacement in Snodland

Practical guidance from Levi King on pitched re-roofing, Part L thermal regulations, slate and tile matching, and project timelines across Snodland and Aylesford.

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

+

If you’re seeing multiple leaks, finding bits of broken tile in your gutters every time it rains, or if the roofline looks like it’s sagging, it is time for a professional look. I’ll get up on the tiles and give you an honest assessment. Sometimes a targeted repair can buy you a few more years, but if the underlying felt has perished or the nails have corroded—something often called 'nail sick'—a replacement is usually the safer, more cost-effective choice in the long run.

Will I need planning permission for a new roof in Snodland?

+

For most homes, replacing your roof tiles on a like-for-like basis falls under permitted development, so you won't need full planning permission. However, if your property is listed or sits within a conservation area in the Tonbridge and Malling borough, there are stricter rules about the materials you use. I help you navigate these choices to make sure your new roof stays within the local guidelines.

How long does a new roof installation typically take?

+

A standard semi-detached house in Snodland usually takes about one to two weeks to strip and re-roof. This depends on the weather and the complexity of the chimney stacks and leadwork. I aim to keep the site tidy and the process as quick as possible so your daily routine isn't disrupted.

What happens to the old roofing materials?

+

I handle the full removal of all old tiles, perished felt, and rotten battens. Everything is cleared from your property and disposed of properly. I leave your driveway and garden exactly how I found them.

Do you replace gutters and fascias at the same time?

+

It is the best time to do it. While the scaffolding is up and the bottom row of tiles is off, replacing your fascias, soffits, and guttering is much easier and cheaper. I can install high-capacity UPVC systems that direct rainwater away from your walls, which is vital for homes exposed to the wind in the Medway Valley.
