We've checked how much you'll pay on average for roof repair. The final prices depends on different factors, which are outlined below. Location is also an important factor.


Roof repair

  • R70 – R100/sqm

This is the price for roof repair services per square metre of roof area. Common roof-related problems that need repair are usual wear an tear, water leaks, and missing or damaged shingles or sheeting. The price of the repair will depend on the size of the roof to be repaired, the scope of the work, the urgency of the job, and the materials used. Sometimes the damage or wear and tear can be so substantial that it is wise to consider a roof replacement instead of repair. On average, expect to be charged between R70/sqm and R100/sqm for roof repair.

There are three different structures on the same property - the main house, a garage and a flat. Off the top of y head, I would guess the total square meters to be over sqm. The main house is a mixture of tile and asbestos and the garage and flat are other compounds, not too sure what. I need someone to come through to the house and advise on the condition of the roof, how long it'll last still and I also need a quote on what a new roof installation would cost.

Clear IBR (?) sheeting over a section of the garage (two car tunnel) lifted in strong wind. Currently held down by a couple of rocks but needs replacement.

Am concerned water collecting there could cause wood rot. Hasn't had bitumen redone for a year or two Needs redoing.

The leak is only on one side of the pitched roof close to the parapet wall. The leak is intermittent depending on the angle of the rain. On inspection the tiles all appear to be in good condition and no cracks were found. It could be something to do with the flashing installed where the tiles meet the wall.

My roof leaks every time that there is heavy rain. If there is continuous light rain, it will not leak. It leaks mostly on the Eastern side, but if the heavy rain continues for a while, then it leaks everywhere in the house. My husband keeps insisting that it is the wind blowing in rain, but even when there is no wind and only heavy rain it will leak.

My patio and garage roofs are currently flat roofs, constructed of metal sheeting covered with torch-on waterproofing. The patio roof was damaged in the hail storm in November last year. I would like quotes to replace both of these roofs with proper angled structures, with either tiles per the main house or metal sheeting of a matching colour. Project objectives: durability, low maintenance going forward, good water run off/guttering. We are looking at an area of approx 75 m2.

Hi there I am in the process of purchasing a home. It currently has a flat sheeting roof which has started to leak. I would like to find out (more or less) what the cost would be per square meter, to convert to Harvey tiles or a tiled roof. I understand a proper quote would be impossible without inspecting the house, and am looking for a base number per square meter if at all possible. Please connect via email only. Thank you!
