About Our Pitched Roofing Services

A pitched roof is the defining feature of most homes in the South East. Whether your property is topped with traditional clay plain tiles, concrete interlocking tiles or natural slate, the quality of the covering, battens and underlay directly affects how well your home weathers the elements. Even small issues — a slipped tile, cracked hip or deteriorating ridge mortar — can lead to leaks and timber damage if left unattended.

Radiant Roofing specialises in every aspect of pitched roofing, from localised repairs and patch retiling through to full strip-and-reroof projects. We work with all common tile and slate types found across Kent, Sussex and Surrey, and we carry a wide stock of materials to match existing roofs as closely as possible. Our surveyors will provide an honest assessment of your roof’s condition and recommend the most cost-effective solution.

Whether you need a handful of tiles replaced after a storm or a complete new roof with modern breathable membrane and dry-fix systems, our experienced crews deliver clean, watertight results on time and on budget. Every project is backed by our workmanship guarantee and covered by full public liability insurance.

Frequently Asked Questions

A full strip-and-reroof for a typical three-bedroom semi-detached house generally costs between £5,000 and £12,000, depending on the tile type, roof complexity and whether any timber repairs are needed. Natural slate roofs sit at the higher end of the range. We provide detailed, itemised quotations so you can see exactly where your money is going.

Most residential re-roofs take between three and five working days, weather permitting. Larger or more complex roofs — such as those with multiple hips, valleys or dormers — may take a little longer. We always provide a realistic timeline before work starts and keep you informed of progress throughout.

A dry ridge system uses mechanical fixings and a roll-out gasket to secure ridge and hip tiles instead of traditional sand-and-cement mortar. Dry ridge is now the industry standard on new roofs because it is more durable, requires less maintenance and provides better ventilation. We recommend dry ridge for all new and re-roofed projects, and it can also be retrofitted to existing roofs.

The best tile depends on your property style, local planning requirements and budget. Clay plain tiles suit traditional homes, concrete tiles offer great value for money, and natural slate is the premium choice for longevity and appearance. During your free survey, we will assess your roof and recommend the most suitable option.

Common warning signs include slipped or missing tiles visible from the ground, damp patches or stains on ceilings and walls, daylight showing through the roof space, moss or lichen growth lifting tile edges, and crumbling or missing ridge mortar. If you notice any of these, it is worth arranging an inspection sooner rather than later to prevent further damage.

Yes. We carry a large stock of both new and reclaimed tiles and can source most common types quickly. Where an exact match is difficult to find, we will discuss your options — often we can use reclaimed tiles from a salvage yard or reposition existing tiles so the best match is in the most visible area.
