Older Buildings and Heritage Rules
Simon's Town has many older buildings, a lot of them with corrugated iron roofs. Before changing the roof on an older building, check what approvals apply.
- 60-year rule. Buildings older than 60 years need a permit from Heritage Western Cape before alterations under the National Heritage Resources Act.
- Overlay zones. Parts of Simon's Town may fall in a City of Cape Town heritage overlay zone. Check with the City before changing the roof.
- Like-for-like. Matching the original profile, colour and detailing is usually easier to get approved than a new material.
- Paperwork first. Ask the contractor to allow for approval time in the programme, and do not start before you have it.
Wind, Salt Spray and Steep Sites
Strong winds and salt spray wear roofs fast, and many properties sit on steep sites with tricky access.
- Corrugated iron. Rust starts at nail and screw holes, laps and edges. Treat and recoat early, and replace sheets that have rusted through.
- Fixings. Ask for stainless or coastal-grade fixings and coastal-grade coated steel. Standard screws rust and let wind lift sheets.
- Gutters and flashings. Aluminium gutters and coated flashings outlast galvanised steel in salt air.
- Access. Steep sites and narrow lanes may need scaffolding or hand-carrying materials, which adds to the price.
How It Works in Simon's Town
- Request. Give your suburb, the type of roof and what needs doing. Photos help.
- Match. Contractors who take work in Simon's Town receive your request, with your permission.
- Inspect. Most contractors look at the roof before giving a firm price.
- Quote. You get written prices and compare scope, materials, warranty and payment terms.
- Repair. You hire one contractor, or nobody. The contractor does the work and deals with you directly.
Travel and Coverage
Contractors are independent and choose the jobs they take. Say if the building is older than 60 years, and describe the access, since approvals and scaffolding both affect the quote.

How much do roof repairs cost in Simon's Town?
A minor leak repair is roughly R850 to R2,800 and rust treatment with recoating R3,000 to R10,000. A two-person crew costs about R1,800 to R4,200 per day.
Do I need heritage approval to repair my roof?
Small like-for-like repairs are often simpler, but buildings older than 60 years need a Heritage Western Cape permit for alterations. Check with the City of Cape Town before changing the roof.
Should I paint or replace rusty corrugated iron?
Paint when the rust is on the surface and the sheets are solid. Replace when rust has gone through or sheets are thin, at about R450 to R800 per m².
Why do sheets keep lifting in the wind?
Usually rusted or too few fixings, especially at edges and ridges. Ask for more fixings there and stainless or coastal-grade screws.
