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.
Historic Homes and Cape Dutch Thatch
Older buildings need more care before any roof work starts. Buildings older than 60 years need a permit from Heritage Western Cape before alterations, and parts of the older town may have extra heritage controls.
- Check first. Ask Stellenbosch Municipality whether the property is in a heritage area before changing the roof shape, covering or colour.
- Thatch upkeep. Brushing and dressing is about R110 per m², and a full re-thatch about R450 per m².
- Thatch safety. Insurers often ask for a lightning conductor and fire retardant, so ask the contractor to include them in the quote.
- Like-for-like repairs. Matching existing tiles, slate or thatch is usually simpler to approve than a change of material.
Rentals, Farm Sheds and Plans
- Student rentals. Landlords often need quick repairs between tenants. Book inspections in the dry summer, before the winter rains show up leaks.
- Wine farm sheds. Cellars, stores and workshops usually have IBR or corrugated sheeting with rusted screws, laps and gutters.
- Wind. The summer south-easter lifts loose ridge capping and poorly fixed sheets, so ask for fixings to be checked.
- Building plans. A new roof structure or a thatch conversion may need plans approved by Stellenbosch Municipality. Confirm this before work starts.

Contractors are independent and choose the jobs they take. Farm properties outside town may carry a travel fee, so give the farm name or street and any gate or access details in your request.
