FAQs
Tile Re-Roofing in Maidstone: FAQs
Do you provide tile re-roofing across all of Maidstone?
Yes, we cover the ME14, ME15 and ME16 postcode areas in full, including Allington, Barming, Loose, Penenden Heath, Tovil, Weavering, Bearsted.
Should I choose concrete or clay tile for my re-roof?
Concrete tile is the more economical, widely available option and suits most properties; clay tile costs more but gives a different colour and texture often chosen to match older or higher-status buildings. We advise on the right choice for your property and budget during survey.
How long does a tile re-roof last?
A well-installed concrete or clay tile roof typically lasts 40-60 years or more, though underlay, battens and flashings usually need attention before the tiles themselves do. We flag realistic lifespans for each component at survey stage.
Does flood risk from the River Medway affect extensions in Maidstone?
For properties in flood risk areas, extension design may need to take flood resilience into account, and a flood risk assessment can be required as part of a planning application. We check the Environment Agency flood mapping for your property during feasibility.
