How Long Roofing Grew Across Kent and London
Darren started Long Roofing with a simple goal: to bring honesty and high standards back to the roofing trade. Working across Sittingbourne, the wider Kent area, and South London, the business quickly grew through word-of-mouth recommendations from property owners who appreciated a roofer who actually answers the phone and explains the job clearly. Over the years, our team has tackled everything from fragile heritage slate roofs on Victorian conversions to large commercial flat roof replacements. We have earned a reputation for stepping into difficult situations—fixing botched jobs left by other contractors and providing calm, professional solutions when emergency repairs are needed. Today, we remain a hands-on, family-run business. Every project receives Darren's personal oversight, ensuring that the work we put on your roof is built to withstand heavy Kent downpours and winter freeze-thaw cycles for decades.

Darren replaced the entire roof on our Victorian converted pub including new timber work and lead work. I would recommend Darren without hesitation based on his quality workmanship and the pride he takes in his trade.
Darren & his team re-covered our flat roof, redid the slate roofing on the lean-to and installed fencing around our roof terrace. They did a great job — reliable, efficient and high quality.
