Roof construction and renovation? Be cost-conscious!

The cost of roof construction or renovation can vary widely depending on the condition of the roof and individual needs, and prices are also influenced by whether you choose economical, mid-range or premium products for upgrading or installation. In general, however, a 'from' to 'to' limit can be defined.

Wooden structure (25-35%)

When building a roof, it is the design of the structure, i.e. the installation of rafters, rafters, beams and other parts, that has the biggest financial impact. This is particularly true when building a completely new roof or when all the old elements need to be replaced.

Prices are also significantly influenced by the type and quality of the timber and the complexity of the roof. In the case of Terrán KészTető, the amount of material required can be determined with millimetre precision, saving up to 15% compared to the traditional method, thus significantly reducing costs and environmental impact.

Roof tiles (20-30%)

For the roofing material chosen, the prices are also significant in relation to the total cost. Resistant concrete tiles offer a highly durable solution in any price range, but models that reflect current trends in terms of shape and colour will usually cost more, and the range will depend on the type of surface treatment.

For the Terrán, depending on the type of roof tile, there are four versions to choose from: ColorSystem, Elegant, Resistor, ClimaControl. Of course, if you want to green your home with a solar roof system, the cost of the roof tile can be much higher.

Roof system accessories (10-15%)

Roof insulation is a key element of an energy-efficient home. MediComfort PIR/PUR rigid foam panels above the rafters are an essential addition to a modern roof. However, in order to perform their protective function to the maximum, a number of other plastic and metal accessories are also required. These include underlayment foils, snow guards, guttering and many other seemingly small but important accessories.

Labour charge (20-30%)

The cost of construction can vary from region to region, and the type of contractor and how busy the contractor is can also be negligible. In addition, much depends on the type of roof, the pitch of the roof and whether it is prefabricated or conventional. The attitude, reliability and experience of the installer are also important, as is his knowledge of the latest techniques and solutions, so that he can build a roof that meets your needs and functional and aesthetic requirements as far as possible.

Terrán also supports its customers in finding craftsmen, guaranteeing that we will find a professional craftsman with their help.

Hidden costs (5-10%)

These include, for example, waste handling and removal (which alone can cost up to 5-10%, depending on whether it is asbestos or "just" normal construction waste), crane lifting, scaffolding or even design fees. Most builders, however, will easily overlook costs that are thought to be incidental, but can be a serious item by the end of the job.
