Ashford Borough Council’s town-centre appraisal records Kent peg roofing tiles, plain tiled and slate roofs, and surviving gabled and catslide roof forms. The council has separate conservation reviews for Kingsnorth and Woodchurch. The town-centre description should not be treated as a specification for every home in the wider borough.
Roofers Medway is the roofing company you contact directly. We cover Ashford as part of our service across Kent and Medway. Tell us what you have noticed; we will discuss the work with you and provide a free written quote, with no obligation to proceed.
On a catslide roof—a slope continuing down over a lower part of the building—describe where the leak appears along the slope. Ask about the covering, low-level junctions and gutters before deciding on the repair scope.
Discuss pitched-roof repairsFor a flat-roofed addition, explain how the space is used, where the outlet is and whether the roof meets an older wall. Repair or renewal should consider the deck condition, falls and wall junction, not just the visible surface.

Local area reference
This map focuses on Ashford town, with Kennington to the north, Willesborough to the east and Kingsnorth to the south. It is not a map of the entire borough. This map shows local geography, not an office, completed projects or an exact service boundary. Roofers Medway covers all of Kent and Medway.
Property-specific advice
Useful points to discuss before roof repairs or replacement work is agreed. The right approach depends on your property, not just its postcode.
If roofing work on an Ashford home is part of an extension or refurbishment, explain the wider project before a quote is prepared. Roof coverings, junctions, insulation questions and drainage may need to be coordinated rather than priced as unrelated jobs.
A damaged area does not automatically mean the whole roof needs replacement. Equally, repeated patches may not address a covering that has broader problems. Discuss the condition and proposed options after inspection, with the reasons and scope set out clearly.
Compare the proposed scope, not just the total. Ask for the details that apply to your job:
These are points to clarify, not a promise that every item is included in every job. Your written quote should describe the work proposed for your home.
Our roofing services
Choose a service to understand the work, or describe your roof in your own words when requesting a quote.
Tell us about leaks, slipped tiles, damaged slates, ridge lines or flashing. Water can travel before it becomes visible indoors, so the position of a damp patch alone is not a diagnosis. We discuss the symptoms and the next inspection steps with you.
If you are considering renewal, discuss the existing covering, the proposed materials and the extent of the work. Ask what is included in the written quote, what needs to be checked and whether any permissions or Building Regulations requirements apply.
For an extension, garage or outbuilding, describe the roof’s use, its junction with the house and any pooling water or leaks. Repair or replacement depends on the existing system and condition; a suitable approach needs a property-specific assessment.
For sudden damage or an active leak, keep clear of the roof and anything that could fall. Tell our team what has happened from a safe location. Availability must be confirmed directly; for immediate danger, contact the appropriate emergency service.
Overflowing gutters, leaking joints and loose downpipes can affect how water leaves the roof. Describe where water escapes, whether it happens in heavy rain and any visible damage to fascias, soffits or nearby walls.
Ask about deteriorating pointing, chimney masonry and flashing at the roof junction. Describe loose material or leaks from a safe position. Inspection is needed to distinguish a masonry issue from a problem with the adjoining roof covering or flashing.
Your questions, answered
Ashford Borough Council’s conservation page links to its interactive planning map and adopted boundary maps, including the town centre and Kingsnorth. Check your exact address rather than relying on a general description of the neighbourhood.
Ask whether sound tiles can be reused, how new tiles will match the roof and what checks are needed beneath the covering. Confirm any heritage permissions with the council before agreeing to a change in material or roof form.
Contact Roofers Medway directly with your town or postcode, the roof issue or planned work, and any access details. We offer free written quotes and cover all of Kent and Medway. You do not need to diagnose the fault; photographs should only be taken from a safe position.
