Area guide · Kent
Swale Borough Council’s Sittingbourne appraisal describes a varied High Street roofscape: pitched and hipped roofs, some behind brick parapets, small dormers and visible brick chimneys. Kent peg tiles dominate that historic area, with slate on later nineteenth- and twentieth-century buildings. Homes elsewhere in Sittingbourne need their own roof assessment.
Roofers Medway is the roofing company you contact directly. We cover Sittingbourne 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 traditional tiled roof, ask how replacement tiles will match the existing dimensions and how hips, ridges and valleys will be repaired. A patch of different tiles can change both the detailing and appearance of a roof.
Explore tile and ridge repairsA leak around a dormer or where a newer extension meets an older roof needs more than a check of the main tiles. Describe the nearest window or wall and whether the extension has its own flat roof.
Discuss extension and flat-roof workThe council references below inform the local context, not a diagnosis of your roof. Older appraisals remain useful background; check current boundaries, Article 4 directions and consent requirements with the council for your address and proposed work.

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.
For a Sittingbourne house, extension or outbuilding, tell us which roof needs attention and what you know about the covering. A flat-roof repair and a pitched-roof repair have different details. Mention previous work and where the problem becomes visible.
If gutters overflow or water gathers on an extension roof, include this in the enquiry rather than treating it as a separate symptom. Also mention narrow access, shared routes and anything beneath the working area that could affect an inspection or scaffold.
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
No. It describes the designated historic area. Use Swale’s conservation maps to check your address, and ask the council about material changes or roof alterations where relevant.
Say whether it appears at the sides, above the window or on the ceiling below, and whether it follows prolonged rain or a particular wind direction. Share photographs only from a safe indoor or ground-level position.
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.
Swale Borough Council's appraisal describes the roofscape of a particular historic area, not every property in Sittingbourne. Tell us the existing covering if you know it; if you plan to change materials, check your address against current council guidance before agreeing the work.
Describe where water appears inside and whether it is near the dormer, a roof slope or the wall below. Include earlier repairs and say when the leak occurs. The dormer junction and surrounding covering may both need assessment; a ceiling mark does not locate the entry point.
