What do block and HMO roofs in Chepstow need?
Service charge budgets for blocks in Chepstow do not always stretch to a whole roof at once. We can phase a re-roof over more than one budget year, pricing each phase separately in writing and keeping every section watertight in between, so the building stays protected while the cost is spread.
In a town like Chepstow, flat roofs are commonly found on bungalows with flat-roofed side extensions and dormers or 1960s and 1970s link-detached houses with flat-roofed garages and porches. Wales averages roughly 1,460 mm of rain a year, among the wettest in Britain, so we design for steady run-off: proper falls, clear outlets and upstands well above the finished roof.
How much does a block or HMO roof cost in Chepstow?
Guide price in Chepstow: £14,300–£25,000 for a 150 m² block-of-flats roof in felt with insulation and scaffold, including VAT at Wales rates. The fixed price comes after a free survey for new and replacement roofs.
| Job | Guide price inc VAT |
|---|---|
| Block of flats (150 m²), felt + insulation + scaffold | £14,300–£25,000 |
| Commercial roof (100 m²), single-ply + insulation | £12,150–£20,050 |
How do you manage access and residents during the work?
We agree an access and communication plan with the agent or freeholder before the scaffold goes up, so residents know what is happening and when.
That usually covers notices in the common parts and letters to each flat, scaffold and skip positions, keeping entrances, escape routes and bin stores clear, working hours, securing the scaffold out of hours, and a named contact for questions. If we need to look at a ceiling inside a top-floor flat, we arrange access through the agent or landlord.
Occupied blocks are re-roofed in phases, with each section watertight before the team leaves site, which also lets a larger roof be spread over more than one service charge year. Hot works near windows, vents and escape routes are tightly controlled, or avoided altogether with cold-applied systems.
What's included?
- Building control and insulation upgrades handled where needed
- Written workmanship guarantee, with manufacturer guarantees registered where the system allows
- Free survey and fixed, itemised written quote
- Long-life systems: mastic asphalt, EPDM, single-ply and built-up felt
Building regulations in Wales
The Welsh Approved Document L applies. Renovating more than half of a roof over a heated room means upgrading it to around 0.16 W/m²K where feasible, and new extension roofs are built to 0.13 W/m²K. Welsh Government guidance is that most re-roofing needs building control approval, so check whenever more than a quarter of a roof is replaced or repaired. We deal with the application as part of the job. More on the rules.
