Indicative Northern Suburbs figures, not firm quotes. Pricing follows Roof Repairs Cape Town. On ageing roofs the variable is what is found once the roof covering is off, and that is why a provisional amount belongs in the quote.
Ageing Roofs
- Underlay membrane fails before the tiles. Past 25 to 30 years the membrane goes fragile and tears at the battens.
- The symptom is damp in multiple rooms. Several patches with no single hole above them is the signature.
- Wood takes many years of small leaks. Rot and borer only appear once the roof covering comes off.
- Agree the provisional amount first. It converts a mid-job phone call into a line by now priced.
- Never allow anyone to cut a truss. Trusses are engineered, and cutting one for a geyser weakens the whole roof.
On a roof past twenty-five years, get a provisional amount for hidden wood damage written into every quote.

Industrial units here have IBR on steel portal frames, and they fail the familiar way: random leaks caused by worn-out fixing washers rather than holes in the sheets. Refastening the whole roof at R120-R320 per square metre adds years where the sheets are still sound, compared with R380-R750 to re-sheet. Where rust has eaten through the sheets or the purlins are damaged, refastening only postpones the inevitable, and an honest assessment should tell you which case applies.
Common Questions
How much does roof work cost in Parow?
Concrete tile runs R450-R850 per m² fitted and underlay membrane replacement with re-tiling R520-R900. Site visits are R950-R2,800 with no travel loading.
I have damp in a number of rooms, what is causing it?
Typically broken down underlay membrane instead of a single leak. Past 25 to 30 years the membrane goes crumbly and no longer catches what gets past the tiles.
Why do quotes for old roofs go up during the work?
Rot and borer in the wood only become visible once the roof finish is off. A contingency allowance of R15,000-R60,000 agreed upfront stops that becoming an argument.
Is re-tiling less expensive than replacing the roof?
Markedly. The sound tiles are reused, so at R520-R900 a square metre you pay for labour and membrane instead of an entire new covering.
Is it okay to cut a truss to fit a geyser?
No. Trusses are engineered, and cutting any part weakens the whole system. Any change needs a detail from an engineer.
My unit in Parow Industria leaks in a number of places, why?
Deteriorated fixing sealing washers over the entire roof. Area-wide refixing at R120-R320 per m² is generally the answer where the sheeting panels are intact.
When is refastening no longer worthwhile?
When rust has eaten through the sheets or the purlins are damaged. From then on, refastening only postpones re-sheeting.
