A straight-talking guide to what roofing work really costs. Honest guide prices with no jargon, so you know roughly what to budget, plus a free fixed quote for your exact job. No call-out charge.
Tell us about your roof. We usually reply the same day.
Roofing is one of those jobs where the price can swing a long way, and for good reason. A small tile slip and a full re-roof are worlds apart, and even two houses on the same street can cost very different amounts depending on the pitch, the materials and how easy the roof is to reach. This guide gives you honest 2026 figures for the most common jobs across the South East, so you can budget with your eyes open before anyone sets foot on your property.
Every figure below is a guide range, not a quote. The only way to know what your roof will cost is a proper inspection, and that is exactly what we give you for free, with no call-out charge and no obligation. If you would rather just get a real number, send us a few details or call 01753 316 053.
A full re-roof means stripping the old covering back to the timber, replacing anything that has rotted, then laying new membrane, battens and tiles or slates. Price is driven mainly by the size of the roof, the material you choose and access for scaffolding. As a rough guide for the South East:
| Property type | Typical roof | Indicative guide price |
|---|---|---|
| Terraced house | Concrete or clay tile | £5,000 - £9,000 |
| Semi-detached house | Concrete or clay tile | £6,000 - £12,000 |
| Detached house | Tile or natural slate | £9,000 - £18,000+ |

Material makes a big difference. Concrete and clay tiles are the most cost-effective choice for most homes, while natural slate is a premium finish that can add several thousand pounds to a re-roof but lasts for generations. We will show you both at the free inspection and let you decide. Read more on our pitched roofing page.

Flat roofs are priced on their size, the system you choose, and whether the old covering or any rotten decking has to come off first. EPDM rubber and GRP fibreglass cost a little more than felt up front but last far longer, so they usually work out better value over the life of the roof. Typical guide prices:
| Job | Typical system | Indicative guide price |
|---|---|---|
| Single garage roof (approx. 15m²) | Felt or EPDM | £1,500 - £3,000 |
| Extension (approx. 20-30m²) | EPDM or GRP | £2,500 - £5,500 |
| Dormer or balcony | GRP fibreglass | £1,800 - £4,000 |

Most repairs are far cheaper than people fear. A handful of slipped tiles or a bit of failed flashing is a quick, affordable fix, and catching it early usually saves you a much bigger bill later. Storm damage varies too much to price sight unseen, so we quote that on inspection. Guide prices:
| Repair | What it covers | Indicative guide price |
|---|---|---|
| Minor repair | Slipped or broken tiles, small patch | £150 - £350 |
| Flashing / chimney | Re-pointing, lead flashing, chimney work | £250 - £600 |
| Larger leak / valley | Valley repairs, multiple tiles, tracing a leak | £400 - £1,200 |
| Storm damage | Wind, impact or emergency damage | Priced on inspection |

We will always tell you honestly whether a repair will see you right or whether a re-roof is the better long-term value. More detail on our roof repairs page.

Clearing moss and cleaning a roof is one of the most affordable jobs we do, and it protects the covering you have already paid for. Price depends on the size of the roof and whether you want a biocide treatment applied afterwards to slow regrowth. Guide prices:
| Job | What it covers | Indicative guide price |
|---|---|---|
| Small to mid roof | Manual moss removal and clearing | £150 - £400 |
| Larger roof + biocide treatment | Full clean plus biocide to slow regrowth | £400 - £800 |

Two quotes for the "same" job can look very different, and it is rarely because one roofer is trying it on. These are the things that genuinely move the price up or down:
None of this is guesswork on our part. We inspect the roof, explain exactly what is driving the price, and put it all in writing so there are no surprises later.
We climb up, check the roof and the timber below, take photos and talk you through what we find. No call-out charge.
A fixed price with the materials, timescale and guarantee spelled out, usually back to you the same day.
The price we quote is the price you pay. Anything that could change it is flagged up front, in writing, before we start.
Every job is fully insured and finished with photos and our 10-year workmanship guarantee.
