Costs
How much does a new roof cost in Wimbledon? (2026 prices)
Costs vary widely. Here are current realistic prices for a Wimbledon home in 2026.
Typical cost ranges for a 3-bed semi
| Concrete tile roof | £8,000–£12,000 |
| Clay tile roof | £10,000–£16,000 |
| Natural slate roof | £14,000–£22,000 |
| Flat roof (EPDM) | £2,000–£4,000 (extension) |
What affects cost
- Size and complexity of the roof (more hips, valleys = more expensive)
- Access (scaffolding needs)
- Choice of material (concrete tile cheapest, natural slate most expensive)
- Whether you replace fascias, soffits, guttering at the same time (recommended)
- Chimney work (repointing, flaunching, flashing)
- Whether you add insulation at the same time
What doesn't affect cost much
Material price difference between mid-range and premium concrete tile: usually £500-£1,000. Often not worth saving.
What to budget for
Always add 10-15% contingency. The roof might have hidden issues (rotten timbers, sagging rafters) that aren't visible until work starts.

How long does it take
Typical 3-bed semi: 5-10 working days for a complete re-roof. Bad weather can extend this. We always protect the property overnight if we can't finish in a day.
