Getting to grips with a roof renovation can prove to be challenging, particularly when working on your budget. An important job like roof work needs careful planning and it is critical that you engage professional roofers at a price you can comfortably afford.
It isn’t easy to keep to a budget when planning major renovations. We’ve come up with a few tips to help you plan for the finances and the scale of the job.
Decide where the line is drawn when it comes to your budget
This is an important part of the planning process when working out the finances. You may have a good idea how much it is likely to cost, or you may have no idea at all.
You could start with an upper limit based on how much you can afford to pay. If you’re going to use a finance option, make sure you don’t exceed your monthly budget. If you prefer not to use the finance route, make sure you are realistic with the amount you’re prepared to take from savings or put aside each month. Running out of money before a roofing project is completed could spell disaster for your home.
Think about your long-term priorities
Spend some time thinking about where your priorities lie for the roof renovation. You may be creating new living space, or you may simply need a new roof due to leaking issues or damage. Whatever your needs and priorities, think about the long-term performance of the materials selected, the quality and look of the products and the quality of the installation. It is worth noting that even some of the best quality roofing systems can fail if incorrectly installed.
Get some quotes for your roofing renovation
Once you have an idea of how much you’re prepared to spend, get some quotes from reputable roofing professionals. Don’t be afraid to ask to see insurance documents and client testimonials – any good business will have no hesitation in showing you.

Set aside a contingency
It is a good idea to allow a contingency fund for unexpected pitfalls. Although many professional roofers can provide an excellent, thorough survey, sometimes there are unforeseen issues that pop up. This can include damp or rot in roof timbers or other structural issues that need to be addressed. Some industry experts recommend setting aside 10-20% of the budget in additional funds to cover emergencies or eventualities.
