New Roof Installations & Re-roofing
If your roof has reached the end of its life (or you're building an extension), a properly installed new roof protects your home, improves kerb appeal and can reduce ongoing repair costs.
Precision South East Roofing installs new pitched roofs using tiles and slate across Kent, Surrey, Sussex and South London. We're based in Tunbridge Wells and provide free surveys, clear written quotes and fully insured, guaranteed workmanship.
When is a new roof the right option?
- Recurring leaks and repeated repairs - if problems keep returning, replacement can be more cost-effective long term.
- Failing underlay or rotten battens - issues beneath the tiles often mean a strip and re-roof is the right fix.
- Storm damage across large areas - widespread damage can make patch repairs impractical.
- Extensions and loft conversions - a new roof section that matches the existing property.
- Cosmetic improvement - fresh tiles/slates can transform the look of a home.
Our new roof services
We offer a complete end-to-end service, including:
- Full roof replacement (strip & re-roof): remove old coverings, install modern breathable membrane, treated battens and new tiles/slates.
- New pitched roofs for extensions: matching roof lines, verges and ridge details.
- Roof structure repairs: replacing damaged battens, rafters or decking where required.
- Leadwork and flashings: chimneys, valleys, abutments and dormers kept watertight.
- Ventilation and insulation upgrades: improving airflow to help reduce condensation issues.
- Roofline finishes: fascias, soffits and guttering as part of the overall job.
Tiles & slate we commonly install
We can advise on the best option for your property style and budget:
- Clay tiles: traditional look, great longevity.
- Concrete tiles: cost-effective and durable.
- Natural slate: premium finish for period and higher-end homes.
- Man-made slate: lighter and often a more affordable slate look.
- Plain tiles: popular for character properties and many local roof styles.
How our new roof process works
- Free survey: we inspect the roof covering, structure, flashings and roofline details.
- Clear quotation: written quote outlining what's included (materials, waste removal, access/scaffolding where needed).
- Installation: carried out safely with tidy working practices and regular updates.
- Final checks: we inspect ridges, verges, leadwork and gutter flow before sign-off.
- Guarantee: workmanship guarantee provided (length depends on the system/materials used).
Example project (typical)
Problem: multiple leak points, degraded underlay and failing ridge mortar.
Work carried out: strip back, replace membrane and battens, install new tiles, renew ridges/verges and update leadwork around penetrations where required.
Result: a watertight roof with a clean finish and improved long-term reliability.

FAQs - New roofs
How long does a new roof take?
Timescales depend on roof size, access and weather. Many domestic re-roofs are completed within several days to around two weeks.
Do you need scaffolding?
Often, yes. Scaffolding improves safety and allows a higher quality finish. We'll confirm access requirements in your quote.
Can you match existing tiles for an extension roof?
In most cases, yes. We'll advise on the best match available for colour/profile so the new roof blends in.
