Sitting near the edge of Romney Marsh, Hamstreet takes more of a battering from wind-driven rain than properties further inland, the kind of weather that finds weak points a sheltered roof might never reveal. Loose flashing, ageing seals, and gutters that were fine for years can suddenly become a real problem once that exposure catches up with them. Our roofing specialists build this into every assessment, checking not just the current state of a roof but how well it’s likely to hold up against conditions like these going forward.
That’s also why we don’t treat every roof the same way regardless of where it sits. A property with more open ground around it needs a different level of scrutiny than a terraced house boxed in by neighbours on either side; materials, fixings, and even the pitch of a roof can all be doing more work in a spot like Hamstreet than they would elsewhere.
We’re not new to this part of Kent, either. As roofing experts in Hamstreet and across the wider Ashford area, we cover the village well within our normal coverage, which means faster response times and a team that’s already familiar with the kind of roofing challenges rural-edge properties like these tend to present.
Hamstreet sits close enough to open marshland that roofs here tend to earn their keep, dealing with more wind and rain exposure than a typical sheltered street. The list below covers the work we’re most often called out for, priced fairly and carried out properly the first time.
A roof doesn’t need to be brand new to be sound; sometimes a repair is the right call, and we’ll always say so if that’s the better option.
Persistent damp is rarely random, since there’s a specific point letting moisture through, and finding it matters more than treating what it caused.
Loose or missing mortar around a chimney is easy to miss from ground level, yet it’s one of the fastest routes for water to get into a roof.
When guttering can’t move water away properly, the timber underneath starts absorbing it, so we fix that before it becomes a bigger repair.
A poorly fitted flat roof tends to show problems within a year or two, which is why we install membrane systems properly the first time.
Where two roof surfaces meet is almost always where a leak starts, which is why flashing gets renewed properly rather than just resealed.

A small job left too long has a way of turning into a bigger one; a slipped tile lets water in, and water left unchecked spreads further than you’d expect. Hibbs Roofing and Building Ltd covers Hamstreet with the same fixed, upfront pricing on every visit, no matter how small the job looks at first.
Send us a message or give us a call, and we’ll arrange a time to come out and take a proper look, no obligation either way.
