Bedrooms — a proxy for roof size

What drives the cost of a new roof

Five things move the price of a re-roof more than anything else:

  • Roof size. Bigger roof, more materials and labour. We estimate yours from your property type and number of bedrooms — a real quote uses a measured survey.
  • Material. Concrete tiles are the most affordable; natural slate costs more upfront but lasts far longer. Flat-roof systems (EPDM, GRP, felt) are priced differently again.
  • Access and scaffolding. Scaffolding is a legal requirement for a full re-roof, not an optional extra. A two-storey house typically needs £900–£1,800 of scaffold; detached or awkward access costs more.
  • Stripping the old roof. Removing and disposing of the existing covering, felt and battens adds cost — but a proper re-roof goes back to the rafters.
  • Condition underneath. Rotten timber, failed flashings or a sagging structure can only be confirmed by a survey, and can add to the final figure.

Frequently asked questions

Is the estimate free?

Yes. The calculator is free and you don't need to give any contact details to see your estimate. A detailed breakdown and fixed quote are also free — there's no obligation at any stage.

How accurate is the estimate?

It's a guide based on typical 2026 UK pricing for your property type and roof. Your real price depends on a measured survey, the exact materials, access and the condition of the roof underneath. Treat the estimate as a budgeting range, not a final figure.

Who actually does the work?

A local roofer registered with the NFRC (the National Federation of Roofing Contractors), the UK's main roofing trade body whose members are independently vetted. We connect you; they survey, quote and carry out the work.

Do I need planning permission for a new roof?

Usually not. A like-for-like replacement normally counts as permitted development. Listed buildings and homes in conservation areas are the main exceptions — always check with your local authority first.
