How much does a new roof cost?
Every roof is different, so here's what actually affects the price, and how to get a fixed quote.
It's the first question most people ask, and the honest answer is that it depends on your roof. Two houses on the same street can need very different work. Here's what makes the difference:
1. The size and shape of the roof
A simple gable roof is quicker to strip and tile than a hipped roof with valleys, dormers and lots of cuts.
2. The tiles you choose
Concrete tiles, clay pantiles and slate all cost different amounts, and older or listed homes may need tiles to match the area.
3. Scaffolding and access
Every re-roof needs scaffolding. Tight access, steep gardens or busy roads can add to it.
4. Chimneys, lead and extras
Chimney repointing, new lead flashings, dry ridge and verge, fascias and guttering all add to the job, but are best done while the scaffold is up.
5. What we find underneath
Rotten battens or timbers only show once the old roof is off. Adam will explain how he deals with this before work starts.
Why the cheapest quote isn't always the cheapest roof
Cheaper quotes often leave out the membrane, re-use old battens or skip the lead. Ask exactly what's included. Every AC Roofing re-roof comes with a 20-year guarantee.
