Expert Advice
Always ask a roofer to show you photos before and after similar work — a good roofer is proud of their work.
Be cautious of roofers who knock uninvited and claim to have spotted damage — get a second opinion.
Check they have public liability insurance; roof work involves significant risk to both the property and public below.
Ask if scaffolding is included in the quote — it is essential for safe roof work and can be a significant cost.
Request a written guarantee on both labour and materials. Many quality roofing materials come with manufacturer warranties.
A repair may be sufficient if the roof is less than 20 years old and the damage is isolated. If tiles are crumbling, the felt beneath is rotting, or there are widespread leaks, a full re-roof is usually more cost-effective long-term. A roofer can advise after inspection.
Routine roof repairs using the same materials do not require planning permission. If you are changing the appearance significantly (e.g., adding dormers) or live in a conservation area or listed building, you will need to check with your local authority first.
GRP (fibreglass) and EPDM (rubber) are currently the most popular flat roofing materials for new installations due to their longevity (25+ years) and low maintenance. Traditional felt is cheaper but has a shorter lifespan of around 10–15 years.
Scaffolding for a standard semi-detached home typically costs £600–£1,200 and is usually included in a full re-roofing quote. For smaller repairs, some roofers use a mobile tower or cherry picker instead.
