How much does a new roof cost? The factors that matter
Roof size, material, access and structure — what drives the cost of a new roof or re-roof.
Roof size and shape
Hips, valleys, dormers and chimneys add labour and materials compared with a simple slope.
Material choice
Natural slate, clay tiles, concrete tiles and flat roof systems all differ in price. In conservation areas the material may be dictated by planning.
Scaffolding and access
Most new roofs need full scaffolding. On City streets this can also mean a highways licence.
What's underneath
Rotten battens, rafters or decking found during strip-out add cost. We photograph anything we find and agree it with you first.
