Reroof costs

[hoppo4.2]

Can someone point me in the direction of a ball park figure for re roofing a traditional terraced house. It has a loft conversion done in the 1940.

Currently slate believe to be original (1887)

Will prob go for a fake slate type of thing.

No idea on price for a terrace, but I'd definitely go with proper slates. For your roof area the cost won't be vastly different and you'll have a product which has been tested over hundreds of years vs something with considerably less testing

I had two roofers round to quote to replace some broken slates, repoint chimney, clean front and back gutters, new downpipes for the main house and outhouse and replace gutters. When we had the full survey, we were told that the felt etc are new but it seems the previous owner didn't bother with new slates(??) and could get away with just doing the above to last us for the next 3-5 years. I guess the roofers weren't keen on the job as they quoted £6k (Sth Yorks) to re-roof instead of what needed to do for now even after inviting them to the house to inspect the felt/loft space for a second opinion.

Slates can be re used if in good condition, but a lot more info needed for ball park.

Size/location?

I've just re-roofed a terraced house, its approx 7mx6m so around 84m2. I've had to use Eternits as the existing slate had been spray foamed in the loft (don't EVER do that as the roof was starting to rot) Materials inc lead for the cornice gutter around £2k, scaff £400, labour £1600. I'd imagine if my roofer was doing it as a complete job supply and fix it would be around £5/6k. As Roofer mentioned if the slate is good you can reuse it, much better that Eternits
