New Roof Installation – Leaks and Cracked Tiles | Tunbridge Wells
A recent project involved replacing a deteriorating roof for a client who had been experiencing significant leaks and noticed cracked tiles on their roof. The homeowners reached out to us at Kingswood Roofing & Guttering for a complete roof replacement to solve these issues and prevent further damage.
Project Overview:
The client’s property had an old roof with visible damage, including cracked and broken tiles, which were causing leaks during heavy rainfall. The condition of the roof was compromising the home’s insulation and water resistance. Our team provided a comprehensive roof replacement service, ensuring long-term durability and protection.
Steps Involved:
Inspection and Removal of the Old Roof:
- Our team started by inspecting the roof, confirming the extensive damage and water ingress due to cracked tiles. We then carefully removed the old tiles and battens.
Installation of a Weatherproof Membrane:
- To protect the property from future leaks, we installed a weatherproof membrane. This breathable layer allows moisture to escape while preventing rainwater from penetrating the structure.
New Battens Installation:
- We installed new timber battens to provide a stable foundation for the replacement roof tiles, ensuring they are properly supported and aligned.
Laying New Roof Tiles:
- High-quality roof tiles were used to replace the old ones, chosen for their durability and aesthetic appeal. These tiles provide excellent weather resistance and give the property a fresh new look.
Final Touches and Clean-Up:
- After completing the tile installation, we finished the project by cleaning the surrounding areas and conducting a final inspection to ensure everything was installed to the highest standard.
Project Highlights:
- Location: Tunbridge Wells, Kent
