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.
Steep Sites and Access
On hillside plots one side of the house can be much higher than the other, and there may be little level ground for ladders or materials.
- Scaffolding. High or steep roofs may need scaffolding at about R3,000 to R12,000, so ask if it is included.
- Getting materials up. Narrow, steep driveways and stairs make carrying tiles and sheets slow, which adds labour time.
- Steep pitches. Steep roofs cost more to clean and repair, often 25 to 40% more for cleaning.
- Photos help. Send photos of the roof and the access route so contractors can quote properly.
Wind and Salt on the Slopes
- Exposure. Raised homes catch the full south-easter, so ridges, tiles and sheet edges take a beating.
- Fixings. Ask for tile clips, extra sheet fixings at edges and stainless steel screws.
- Salt spray. Wind carries salt up the slope. Use coastal-grade sheeting, aluminium flashings and gutters.
- Retaining walls and run-off. Water from the slope above can overload gutters and downpipes, so size them properly.
- Plans. Building plans here are approved by the City of Cape Town.
