Factors that affect the cost
The cost of hiring roof restoration businesses vary depending on certain factors. These include the size of the roof, current roof condition, and repairs.
Size
Of course, one of the things that affect the price is the size of the roof. Surprisingly, a small roof costs more to restore than a large roof. Here are some rates that roofing businesses offer:
- Small roofs – $27/m2 – $37/m2
- Medium roofs – $22/m2 – $27
- Large roofs – $17/m2 – $22/m2
So to restore a roof with an average size of around 250m2, you will have to pay around $6,250. This will further vary depending on other factors.
Roof condition
Is the paint on your roof peeling off? Are there holes and missing or broken tiles? Did the previous work done on your roof cause minor and major problems? Are there issues with the gutter system? All of these concerns need to be addressed properly to ensure a successful roof restoration job, thus increasing the job cost.

Repairs and replacement
Depending on the condition of your roof, repairs and replacements can take the total cost to a whole new level. The tasks that are included in a typical roof restoration job are cleaning, painting, and re-pointing. Repairing damage and replacing missing parts are necessary add-ons, so they call for extra expenses.
