Prices JUST UPDATED. Indicative ballpark figures in rand, rounded, based on typical South African market rates. They are not our prices or quotations, and no contractor is bound by them. Ask whether VAT is included, and check what each quotation covers, such as scaffolding, rubble removal and call-out fees.
Re-roofing Older Tile Roofs
Roofs of this age often have brittle tiles, perished underlay or none at all, and tired battens. Patching keeps failing once the roof as a whole is worn out.
- Signs it is time. Many porous or cracked tiles, sagging lines, rotten battens and leaks in several places each winter.
- Underlay. A re-roof is the chance to add underlay, which keeps out wind-driven rain that gets past the tiles.
- Insulation while it is open. Adding or topping up ceiling insulation during the work is simpler and cuts heat loss in winter.
- Old sheet roofs. If outbuildings have asbestos-cement sheets, removal must be done by a registered asbestos contractor.
Complexes and Body Corporates
Many complexes have similar roofs of the same age, which makes planned roof work cheaper than emergency repairs.
- Condition report. A detailed inspection of all units helps trustees plan and budget for repairs or phased re-roofing.
- Who is responsible. Check the scheme rules. Owners should not hire contractors for common-property roofs without approval.
- Matching materials. Complexes usually want the same tile profile and colour on every unit, so specify it in the request.
- Phasing. Re-roofing a few blocks a year spreads the cost across the levy budget.

How much do roof repairs cost in Edgemead?
A minor leak repair is roughly R850 to R2,800. A re-roof with new concrete tiles, battens and underlay is about R550 to R900 per m², plus stripping and disposal.
Should I repair or re-roof a roof this old?
Repair if the problem is local and the battens are sound. If tiles are failing across the roof and leaks keep coming back each winter, re-roofing is usually better value.
Can I add insulation at the same time?
Yes. Supplied and installed insulation starts at about R140 per m², and it is easier to fit while the roof or ceiling is being worked on.
Can our body corporate get one quote for the whole complex?
Yes. Describe the number of units and roof types, and ask for a condition report and a phased price so trustees can plan.
