Pricing guide
The cost of a storm damage make‑safe largely depends on how the work can be carried out and the equipment required. Ground‑based jobs using short ladders and a small crew are typically less complex than aerial rope‑access or crane/Hiab operations, which introduce specialist labour, rigging and permit needs. After‑hours callouts and difficult site access can also increase the final price.
Roof material and fragility
Older terracotta, slate or fragile sheeting usually requires careful handling, slower work practices and extra rigging.
Urgency and active water ingress
Active leaks or emergency call-outs typically need faster attendance, more personnel and more robust tarping or interior containment.
Extent of damage and repairs needed
Larger damaged areas or numerous tiles/sheets to secure generally increase labour and materials required for the temporary make-safe.
Access, height and roof slope
Steep, high or difficult-to-access roofs often demand additional safety measures and longer on-site time.
Presence of hazardous materials
If asbestos or other hazardous materials are present, removal by a specialist with the appropriate licence is generally required and charged separately.
