The roof on your home provides both aesthetics and protects. It gives your home a distinct look while keeping out all the wind, rain, and debris. However, because of this, it\u2019s also one of the first parts of your property that needs replacement. Unfortunately, if you want a high-quality roof that will last through many harsh UK winters, you\u2019ll need to spend quite a bit.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Before\nyou start ripping tiles off your roof,<\/a> you need to know how to budget your\nmoney. There are a lot of costs, both evident and hidden when it comes time to\nreroof your home. Here\u2019s what you should expect. So, how to replace roof for a UK property<\/a>?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Tiled Roofs<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Look around your neighbourhood, and you\u2019ll quickly see that most of the homes have tiled roofs. Although you may think all tile roofs cost the same amount, you would be mistaken. The most inexpensive material is clay tile, but if you want something higher-end, you may want to go with slate tile. While clay will last for around 50 years, a properly installed slate tile roof<\/a> can last for up to 100 years.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

If you\nonly want to replace one or two missing tiles, you\u2019ll pay between \u00a3100 to \u00a3200.\nHowever, for a completely new roof, the costs will be much higher. A clay tile\nwill run about \u00a34,350 for materials and labour. If you choose slate,<\/a> expect to\npay around \u00a36,800. While a clay roof takes about 5-7 days to install, plan for\na 9-day project if you select slate.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Flat Roofs<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

You\u2019ll\ncommonly find flat roofs on external buildings, such as garages or extensions.\nThese roofs are very affordable. Most are constructed out of timber and covered\nwith a waterproof felt. Although flat roofs do not last as long as tile, they\nare very durable against the wind. A high-quality, felt roof can last for 20-30\nyears.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The total cost to reroof a flat roof<\/a>\ndepends on the size of the building. For example, if you have a single garage,\nit may run around \u00a3780 to \u00a31025. A more extensive conservatory roof will cost\nbetween \u00a3805 to \u00a31,180. The lower end of the pricing spectrum reflects a felt\nroof, and the higher cost is for PVC or fibreglass. It only takes 1-2 days to\ninstall a new flat roof.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Hidden Costs<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The\nfigures stated above reflect the cost of labour and materials. However, these\nnumbers are exclusive of VAT, which you will need to figure in your total\nbudget. If the roofers need any scaffolding, which is highly likely, you\u2019ll pay\nan additional \u00a3400 to erect, depending on how much is required. Any changes to\nthe fascia, soffits, or guttering are also not calculated into the above\nestimates. Most roofers recommend replacing the items at the same time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

How to Save on Costs<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Not\neveryone can afford a new roof, but you also can\u2019t bear to be without a\nfunctioning roof. If you have a tight budget, ask a roofer if a few repairs\nwill hold you over for now. Repairing a roof is much cheaper than installing a\nnew one. However, if you go this route, start saving now for a reroof in the\nfuture.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Be\nsure to ask around and get several quotes before you hire a tradesperson. Most\nexperts agree that three quotes are enough. Do take note, however, that the\nmost affordable offer is not always the best one. Make sure the person you\nchoose has plenty of experience and stands behind their work.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
