Roofing Built for Sevenoaks Properties
Roofs here tend to be bigger and more complicated than most — natural slate, several pitches meeting in valleys, dormers on two elevations, and chimney stacks that stand well clear of the ridge.
That needs a firm set up for it. Proper scaffolding rather than ladder work, sand-cast lead rather than a sealant patch, and £10 million of public liability cover for a property of this value.
Every job starts with a free survey and a written report, so you know exactly what you are paying for before anyone starts.
Common Roof Problems in Sevenoaks
These are the four we get called out to most often here, and what usually causes them.
Slates slipping across a big roof
Nail sickness at scale. On a 150m² roof the fixings go a few at a time, so you lose slates over several winters rather than all at once.
Pitched Roofing→
Mortar washing out of a tall stack
Stacks here stand well clear of the ridge and take weather from every side. Doing them properly needs scaffolding, not ladder work.
Chimneys & Repointing→
Splits in dormer and valley lead
Lead fatigue from oversized sheets. Run too long, it expands and contracts through the seasons until it cracks along the same lines.
Leadwork & Flashing→
Valleys overflowing in heavy rain
Complex roofs funnel a lot of water into few valleys. Add leaf fall from mature gardens and they silt up and back up under the tiles.
Guttering→Not sure which one you've got? We'll tell you straight — including when it doesn't need fixing yet.

What Roofing Work Costs in Sevenoaks
Typical price range
£300 – £2000
VAT may apply depending on the project
Factors that affect the price:
- 1Roof area — 150m² and up is normal here, and it drives everything
- 2Slate type, and whether we can source a match for the existing
- 3Scaffolding, which tall stacks and steep pitches always need
- 4How much of the leadwork needs re-dressing rather than patching
That range covers slate repairs and chimney repointing. A full slate re-roof on a large detached property runs from £15,000 to £35,000 depending on area and complexity. Every quote follows a free survey and comes with a written report.

The team from Radiant Roofing did an excellent job on our roof. They were professional, tidy, and did a great job with care and attention. We could not recommend them highly enough.

Radiant re-felted, battened and tiled our roof. The guys were totally professional from start to finish. They kept me updated throughout and were open to discussing options. The team grafted hard to deliver a fantastic end result at a competitive price.

Yes, natural slate is one of our core specialisms. We work with Welsh slate, Spanish slate and reclaimed English slate depending on the property and budget, and we understand the different fixing methods, head laps and gauge requirements for each. For period properties we always recommend a slate grade and size that matches the original specification.
Yes. Many of the properties we work on here have large multi-faceted roofs with several valleys, hip junctions, dormers and chimney stacks. We have the experience, team size and scaffolding partnerships to handle roofs at any scale, and we carry full public liability insurance to £10 million for high-value residential work.
