Our HQ is in Kent — you'll find our vans on industrial estates from Dartford to Dover and from Tunbridge Wells to Margate every working day. Over four decades of commercial and industrial roofing experience, all of it within an hour of your building.
Kent's industrial spine runs from the Dartford crossing through Gravesend, Sittingbourne, Faversham and Canterbury out to the Channel ports — with secondary clusters around Maidstone, Ashford, Tonbridge and Tunbridge Wells. Pretty much every commercial building on those routes has a sheet-metal or asbestos cement roof, and after a couple of decades of British weather they all need work eventually.
New-Cladd has been the local choice on those buildings since the 1980s. We've over-clad multi-let trade parks in Aylesford, re-roofed cold-store units in Sittingbourne, replaced asbestos cement roofs on Channel-port logistics warehouses, and fitted new envelopes on owner-occupier factories from Tonbridge to Whitstable. If it has a profiled-metal roof and it's inside the Kent county boundary, the odds are we've worked on something similar within a 10-mile radius.
What you get with a Kent-based contractor on a Kent building is straightforward: faster surveys, no travel padding in the price, the same project manager from quote to handover, and the ability to come back next week if there's an issue — without it turning into a logistics exercise.
The Channel-port corridor is dense with distribution warehousing. We over-clad, re-roof and repair on multi-tenant DCs from Ashford and Dover up through Folkestone.
Multi-let trade parks across Aylesford, Maidstone, Sittingbourne and Sevenoaks — phased works programmed around occupied tenants.
Kent's farming heartland (the Weald, the Marshes and the North Downs) means agricultural commercial buildings — grain stores, packhouses, equestrian arenas and machinery sheds. More on agricultural roofing →
MOT centres, paint shops, body workshops — insurance-driven works on aged single-skin roofs are a regular fixture in our schedule.
Growing sector across Medway, North Kent and along the M20. New cold-roof envelopes, perimeter cladding and security-driven roof works.
Outbuildings, plant rooms, sports halls and maintenance buildings on hospital and school estates across the county. We work to public-sector PPM frameworks.
"We've used New-Cladd on three units across our Kent estate over the last six years. They turn up when they say they will, they finish when they say they will, and the price on the invoice is the price on the quote. It's not complicated — but it's apparently rare. We won't use anyone else."
All of them. BR, CT, DA, ME, TN and the Kent half of KT. We routinely cross the Greater London boundary into Bromley, Bexley and Orpington as well. Outside Kent, we work across East and West Sussex (BN, RH, southern TN) and Essex (CM, SS, RM, IG, EN, CO).
Yes — our base, our directors and the majority of our directly-employed teams are all Kent-based. That's why we don't charge travel time on Kent jobs and why a surveyor can usually attend within 2–3 working days of your call.
Where the roof is profiled metal, fibre cement or standing seam — yes. We work on listed and historic farm buildings across the Weald and the North Downs, including oast house outbuildings and traditional brick-and-timber barn conversions. Tile-and-batten heritage work isn't our trade; we'll refer you to an appropriate contractor.
For active leaks during business hours we typically attend within 24–48 hours. For genuinely emergency damage (lifted sheets, exposed structure after a storm) we'll push other work back and attend within hours where we can.
Yes. We handle asbestos cement strip and disposal as part of the same contract — meaning we can quote, plan, strip and replace as a single combined project. No separate asbestos contractor, no programme gap between the strip and the new roof.
