If you need your garage roof replaced, you will probably be wondering how much this might cost. The cost of a new garage roof is dependent on a few factors.  The first thing that I would consider is the size of the garage. This will obviously have an impact on how much material is required to replace the roof.  I also consider whether you are looking to replace an apex style roof or a pent roof system.

The next thing is whether the garage roof is made of asbestos cement sheets. If that is the case, then there is the added expense of disposing of the asbestos safely. This will generally add to the cost. Asbestos is a dangerous product and so it needs to be disposed of properly.

I also consider whether the trusses are suitable. In 9 out of 10 cases the trusses are usually fine and will not need replacing.  All that needs replaced are the roof sheets and the timber facias.

The cost of a new garage roof is based simply and mathematically on these criteria. So there is no guess work. Not only have that, but we only charged you at the end of the job when you are happy. We ask for no payment up front.

Do you have a Marley or Compton garage? If so you will know that they are the best types of garages. They are good quality prefabricated concrete garages which have stood the test of time.  Unfortunately you may find now that their garage roof is leaking or deteriorating.  These garages were very popular in years gone by but the history of the companies mean that they are no longer being built. However, we can still source materials for them when required – most builders can’t.

The roofs of these garages are made from asbestos sheets and if they are deteriorating then they need to be replaced. You will see that from the fact that they are becoming porous. If you need the roofs of these garages replaced, there is no point in replacing them with felt. This will not last and you will end up replacing it again. We can source the correct roofing materials for these garages which will last for years, so please get in touch if you find you have a problem.

The weather has been very stormy recently in Scotland with flooding causing problems for a lot of areas. Strong winds have played havoc for some homeowners with roof tiles being blown off and fences down. Garage roofs have also been damaged by these strong winds. Garage roofs can be damaged by falling trees and debris in the garden. If your garage roof was already leaking and damaged then these storms may have made it worse.

Most people don’t realise that you can get your garage roof repaired under your home insurance. If the roof of your house is damaged, most people will claim under their insurance but you should also contact your insurance company about your garage roof too. This is often covered which means that you needn’t be worried about the cost of replacing or repairing it.

I have been dealing with a number of households recently which have been affected by the storms. We can get a free quote out to you very quickly to quicken the process of claiming for damage.
