Indicative Bryanston ranges, not quotations. Rates track Roofing Contractors Johannesburg. A roof with many hips and valleys takes longer per square metre than a simple gable, and quotes should reflect that.
Tree Cover
- Valleys fill first. Leaves settle where two slopes meet, dam the water and push it sideways under tiles.
- Gutters overflow. A gutter full of leaves has no capacity when a storm arrives.
- Branch strikes. Storm gusts bring down limbs that crack tiles and bend gutters.
- Damp and moss. Shaded slopes stay wet longer, and moss lifts tiles and holds moisture.
- Roots and drainage. Downpipes discharging into blocked drains back up during heavy rain.
Mention overhanging trees so contractors price clearing and access properly.
Compare Bryanston QuotesRoof Repairs Bryanston Large Roofs
On a large, complex roof the cheapest contractor per square metre is not always the cheapest overall. Many hips and valleys mean more cutting, more flashing and more places for water to get in, and a quote that treats the roof as a simple area is likely to have missed work. Ask each contractor to state how many valleys and metres of ridge and hip they have priced. Where trees overhang, an annual valley and gutter clearing before the summer storms typically prevents most of the leak call-outs on these roofs.
Frequently Asked Questions
How often should valleys be cleared under trees?
At least twice a year where trees overhang: after the winter leaf fall and again mid-summer.
Do leaf guards work?
They help on gutters, less so in valleys. They still need periodic clearing.
Is branch damage covered by insurance?
Sudden storm damage from a falling branch is commonly covered, subject to the policy. Photograph it before repair.
Why does a large roof cost more per square metre?
Hips, valleys and cuts add labour and flashing. Simple gables are quicker.
Clay or concrete tiles for a re-roof?
Clay costs more and lasts longer; concrete is cheaper and lighter on some profiles. The trusses decide what is possible.
Does thatch need special maintenance?
Yes: periodic combing, patching, fire retardant renewal and a tested lightning conductor.
Should I trim trees before the roofer comes?
Trimming overhanging limbs first saves the roofer time and protects the new work.
