What drives roofing cost up or down

• Roof size & shape: hips/valleys, dormers, skylights and chimneys add time.

• Material choice: tile vs slate; felt/EPDM/GRP for flat roofs.

• Access & working height: scaffolding, towers, narrow side paths.

• Condition under the covering: rotten battens, failed felt, cracked decking.

• Leadwork & flashings: step/soaker/ridge/valley requirements.

• Ventilation & insulation upgrades: building-control-friendly improvements.

• Waste & logistics: skip placement, permits, loading distance.

• Weather & timing: winter work, emergency callouts, out-of-hours.

• Guarantee length: longer warranties often require specific systems.

• Conservation rules: material and detail constraints in certain areas.

Flat roof pricing—Felt vs EPDM vs GRP

What you’re paying for: stripping (if needed), decking repairs, new membrane/system, trims, outlets, and tidy edges.

*Typical jobs: 10–30 m². Decking repairs, insulation upgrades, and tricky upstands add cost.

Tip: We’ll show good / better / best options with photos of edges and outlets—where most flat roofs fail.

FAQs (quick and plain)

Do you always need scaffolding?
Not always—small low-level jobs can use towers/ladders, but scaffold is safer and required for many re-roofs and chimney works.

How long does a re-roof take?
Most terraced/semi roofs are 3–7 working days once access is up, weather permitting.

Felt vs EPDM vs GRP—what lasts longest?
All last well when correctly specified. The right choice depends on roof shape, upstands, and budget. We’ll show examples and edges/outlets (where failures start).

Will you help with insurance claims?
Yes—photos, written findings, and an insurer-friendly quote. Emergency make-safe available.

Do your prices include VAT?
We quote inc. VAT unless stated otherwise.

How much does wall & gable cladding cost?

Cladding prices vary a lot depending on area, material and access, but here’s a realistic guide for typical houses within about a 10-mile radius of Bromley.

As a rough rule of thumb, most domestic cladding projects fall somewhere between £1,200 and £6,000+.

Typical cladding price ranges

These are guide ranges, not quotes – they’re here to help you budget and sense-check quotes you receive.

1. Small gable or dormer in uPVC cladding
E.g. a single gable end or dormer face on a typical semi or terrace.

• Typical range: £1,200 – £2,000+

• Usually includes:

  • Removal of failed timber/old boards where required

  • New battens and breathable membrane (where appropriate)

  • Supply and fit of uPVC cladding in a standard colour

  • Trims, joints and finishing details

  • Waste removal

• Scaffolding may or may not be needed, depending on height and access.

2. Larger gable or one full elevation in uPVC
E.g. full side gable on a semi / detached, or a first-floor front elevation.

• Typical range: £2,000 – £3,500+

• Cost moves up or down based on:

  • Total square metres being clad

  • Number of windows, corners and details

  • Whether existing finishes need extra prep or repairs

  • How much scaffolding is required

3. Multiple elevations or wrap-around uPVC cladding

E.g. front and side of a house, or several dormers / gables together.

• Typical range: £3,500 – £6,000+

• More complex jobs involve:

  • Multiple elevations, corners and window details

  • More extensive scaffolding and protection of paths/gardens

  • Longer time on site

4. Fibre cement / composite cladding upgrades

If you’re upgrading to fibre cement or composite boards (for a more premium, modern look), expect a higher material cost than standard uPVC.

• Roughly: add 20–40% compared to equivalent uPVC areas

• Worth considering if:

  • Appearance and long-term colour stability are a priority

  • You’re planning to stay in the property long-term

We’ll always cost both options where it makes sense, so you can see what you’re paying for the upgrade.

What makes cladding more expensive (or cheaper)?

The main factors that drive price up or down:

• Size of the area
  More square metres = more boards, battens, membrane and labour.

• Material choice

  • Standard uPVC = lowest upfront cost, low maintenance

  • Fibre cement / composite = higher upfront, more “high-end” finish

  • Timber options vary depending on species and finish

• Complexity & detailing

  • Lots of windows, corners, angles and junctions take more time

  • Simple, straight gables are quicker and cheaper per m²

• Access and scaffolding

  • Easy access from a tower vs full scaffolding around a house

  • Busy roads, tight side returns or conservatories can increase access costs

• Condition of what’s behind

  • If we find rotten timbers or loose substrate, this needs fixing properly

  • Simple over-cladding onto sound surfaces is cheaper than full strip-back and rebuild

Cladding vs repainting – cost and lifespan

Sometimes you’re deciding between repainting an existing elevation or re-cladding it.

Very broadly:

• A good repaint is usually cheaper in the short term, but you’ll be doing it again in a few years.

• New cladding costs more upfront but is typically lower maintenance and gives a more dramatic visual upgrade.

On a survey we’ll happily price both where they’re realistic options and tell you, honestly, what we’d do if it were our own home.

How to get a clearer number for your house

These ranges are there to help you budget and sanity-check quotes – but every property is different.

If you’d like a more accurate figure for your home:

• Take a few photos of the areas you’re thinking about (front, side, gables, dormers)

• Note roughly which walls you’d like clad (and whether you’re open to uPVC vs fibre cement)

• Send everything over with your postcode

We’ll come back with:

• A sensible ballpark range based on your photos, and

• The option to book a site visit for a fixed, written quote if you want to move forward.
