How much does it cost to replace a tile roof?
There is no single price for replacing a tile roof, because no two roofs are the same. Rather than quote a figure that may be nothing like your roof, it is far more useful to understand what drives the cost, so you can read a quote with confidence and compare like with like. The only way to get an accurate price is a free survey.
Key takeaways
- Cost depends on roof size, tile type, pitch, access and condition
- Scaffolding and waste removal are part of a proper quote
- The cheapest quote is not always the best value
- A free survey is the only way to get an accurate figure
What you are actually paying for
A tile roof replacement is more than just the tiles. A proper quote covers stripping and disposing of the old roof, new breathable membrane and battens, the new tiles, all the ridge and flashing details, scaffolding, labour, and clearing the site afterwards.
When you compare quotes, make sure each one covers the same scope. A low price that leaves out scaffolding, waste removal or new flashing is not really cheaper.
The main factors that change the price
Roof size and complexity: the larger the roof and the more valleys, hips and dormers, the more materials and labour are needed.
Tile choice: concrete interlocking tiles, clay tiles and natural slate sit at very different price points, both for the material and the labour to lay them.
Access and pitch: difficult access or a steep roof means more scaffolding and more careful work.
Condition underneath: if the timbers or battens have deteriorated, replacing them adds cost, but skipping that would undermine the whole roof.
Getting a quote you can trust
We offer free surveys, often using a drone, so we can see the real condition of your roof and give you a clear, written quote with a detailed scope of work and no surprises.
Every roof we replace is backed by our 5-year workmanship guarantee, so the value is in the finished roof lasting, not just in the headline price.
